3 COMSTACK: @ uses AF_UNSPEC . But we prefer AF_INET6 over others when
4 picking a socket. Problem is that some systems has IPV6 support, but
5 we can't create sockets for them, so we pick AF_UNSPEC first.
7 HTTP encode. Proper Content-Length YAZ-660. For yaz_encode_http_response
8 use content_len to determine resulting Content-Length in HTTP response
9 and NOT Content-Length supplied in headers by user.
11 z_HTTP_header_add_basic_auth uses z_HTTP_header_set rather than
12 z_HTTP_header_add, to avoid having two Authorization headers by mistake.
14 Fix problem with HTTP decoding. For HTTP 1XX, 204, 304 assume no
17 Fix yaz_base64decode to use proper signed. Problem occurred on platforms
18 with big endian and unsigned char (by default).
22 Fix yaz-client connect (crash in 4.2.55).
26 Fix proxy/host problem for ZOOM that could occur if unix sockets
29 New Debian package libyaz4-dbg.
31 Fix problem with cs_close hang/wait in SSL mode. Invoke gnutls_bye
32 differently in tcpip_close.
36 Windows installer of YAZ includes YAZ4J as a component.
38 CQL: allow "extra terms" again, by default. Thus, the CQL parser
39 accepts a superset the standard. This reverts to CQL as of YAZ 4.2.51
40 and earlier. CQL parser may operate in strict mode where queries
41 not conforming to the standard BNF are rejected (syntax error).
42 Whether the CQL parser operates in strict mode is controlled with
43 cql_parser_strict . Strict mode enabled with option -S for utilities
44 cql2pqf and cql2xcql .
46 yaz-ztest: returns OPACXML records for syntax=XML and element set=OP.
50 New charset, MARC-8c, which is like MARC-8 but allows control characters
51 0x01 through 0x1F, except ESC to be passed through verbatim.
53 Fix a problem with duplicate sub field character in MARC output. Problem
54 happened only when output was MARC-8 encoded.
58 yaz-ztest: Use hash for fake hit count. Before, random number was used.
59 This is problematic for unit tests using yaz-ztest. This patch also makes
60 a hash for CQL queries. For RPN, any term with a leading digit will be
61 treated as pseudu hit count (to force any particular hit count by a client).
63 yaz-ztest: return unique MARC dummy records. Beyond record offset
64 24, the author surname is patched with offset to make all records
67 COMSTACK: make @ bind to IPV6+IPV4 consistenly and avoid depending
68 on system wide default (/proc/sys/net/ipv6/bindv6only).
69 @4 binds to IPV4 only. @6 binds to IPV6 only.
71 Update CQL API documentation a bit
73 CQL: don't accept extra terms for queries. Makes the CQL parser
74 stricly conformant to the standard.
78 GFS: scan handler gets extra_args from request and may return extra
79 response data . That's for SRU only.
81 Solr scan support for ZOOM and yaz-client. Patch from Simon Jacob.
85 New function, yaz_xml_to_opac, to convert from OPACXML to Z39.50 OPAC.
87 OPACXML: sync spelling of availabilityDate in XML to that of Schema
88 opaxxml.xsd. The schema had the correct spelling of this member always.
89 The ASN.1 was mis-spelled and still is (API change) - we are
90 not changing this. However, the OPAC to XML conversion had yet
93 GFS: Allow conversion between Z39.50 OPAC and OPACXML via retrieval
96 New function, z_ext_record_oid_nmem, which is similar to
97 z_ext_record_oid but takes NMEM rather than ODR
101 ICU: New conversion element 'join' which joins tokens into one
102 with a custom character given by rule attribute.
104 --- 4.2.48 2013/01/10
106 New GFS search member: present_number. This is a hint to the
107 search handler how many records are going to be fetched immediately
108 following search. There's no guarantee that it's going to be the case,
109 since it depends on hit count (for Z39.50 piggyback) and whether errors
112 Make a few functions static (private). The functions getbyte_stream,
113 ungetbyte_stream and yaz_gets are now private. They were never declared
116 yaz-marcdump: exit(5) for serious decoding errors
118 ISO2709 decoding: be more picky WRT header
120 GFS: bail out of fetch if last_in_set is set. Until now, last_in_set,
121 was only used as to indicate that next-result-set-position should be
123 http://www.loc.gov/z3950/agency/markup/04.html#Next-result-set-position
124 Based on patch from Ashley Sanders.
126 Make some functions static/private in PQF parsing. Those functions were
127 never declared in a public header and so should not be in use by
128 applications based on YAZ.
130 --- 4.2.47 2012/11/23
132 ZOOM: special options to control APDU logging.
133 Using ZOOM_connection_option_set(c, "saveAPDU", "1") will enable
134 logging of APDUs until "saveAPDU" option is set again. If logging is
135 already enabled the effect is that current APDU buffer is cleared.
136 Using ZOOM_connection_option_set(c, "saveAPDU", "0") disables
137 logging (default behavior on new connection).
138 The APDUs sent/received can be obtained by using
139 Using ZOOM_connection_option_get(c, "APDU") or
140 ZOOM_connection_option_getl(c, "APDU", &l).
142 GFS: relay implementation_version from backend
143 From 3.0.40 and later, implementation_version from backend was
144 not used in init response at all.
146 --- 4.2.46 2012/11/15
148 Fix cs_rcvconnect for SSL comstack GNUTLS. Did not work in non-blocking
149 mode at all. Probably never did.
151 Make a new version of ztest.pem that, at least, is not expired.
153 --- 4.2.45 2012/11/13
155 Fix description of CCL directive 'case'.
157 More tight checking of form arguments (yaz_uri_to_array). Makes
158 YAZ better at rejecting big and/or bad POSTs.
160 SRU decoding does not report more than up to 10 invalid arguments.
162 rpn2cql: less quotes in generated terms. Semantics unchanged, but
163 it's prettier this way.
165 --- 4.2.44 2012/10/25
167 New utility yaz_decode_init_diag. Defined in proto.h.
169 Allow HTTP protocol on unix local socket. Also Z39.50 database may be
170 given for unix local socket.
171 The COMSTACK string for doing so is:
174 unix:/myfile:tcp:localhost:9999/mybase
175 unix:/myfile:localhost:9999/mybase
176 unix:/myfile:http://fakehost/mybase
178 debian: Use dpkg-buildflags in build process.
180 --- 4.2.43 2012/10/19
182 ZOOM C: don't trust recordPosition always. Some servers, such as IGI
183 global's SRU service uses a recordPosition scheme starting from zero.
184 First record's position should be one
185 according to the standard.
187 --- 4.2.42 2012/10/18
189 Allow more namespaces for SRU. This is to allow, for example, an
190 incorrect namespace returned from server
191 http://services.igi-global.com/sru .
193 Minor fixes for compilation on Windows.
195 --- 4.2.41 2012/10/11
197 daemon: log total number of bad signals from child on stop so that it
198 is more easy to spot problems with child worker processes.
200 retrieval: empty backend name attribute omits element set
201 from being used in retrieval.
203 --- 4.2.40 2012/10/04
205 Implement Solr sort strategy "solr", similar to sru11 sorting.
206 This will implement the correct parameters on Solr requst to do
209 --- 4.2.39 2012/09/28
211 Implement ccl_qual_fitem2. Like ccl_qual_fitem but with diagnostic
214 MARC: Extra/missing indicator handled for MARCXML.
215 The indicator length is given in header and is the same for the
216 whole record. If attributes ind1, ind2 are missing, then content
217 character defaults to blank. Extra indicator attributes (beyond)
218 indicator length are treated as an error.
220 Reformat: delete trailing whitespace
222 --- 4.2.38 2012/09/17
224 MARC: fix non-ASCII characters for leader. This is to ensure we can
225 generate XML in UTF-8.
227 CCL: new special attribute s=ag . Almost s=pw,al but preserves words
228 in one node with structure word.
230 --- 4.2.37 2012/09/04
232 yaz-json-parse: JSON output may be pretty printed by using option
235 Increase default value of max message for Z39.50 Init for GFS, ZOOM
236 and yaz-client. Old value was 1 MB. New value is 64 MB.
238 --- 4.2.36 2012/08/22
240 yaz-client: don't display bogus records from SRU servers. Some SRU servers
241 return more records than given by *maximumRecords*. Skipping those in
244 record_render: simplify buffer return handling and fix at least one bad
245 memory reference, that broke the test_embed_record sometimes.
247 Allow http://user:pass@host notation for yaz_url_exec.
249 zoomsh: allow shell command to be executed. Via the system(3) call.
251 yaz_poll: Allow num_fds == 0
253 yaz-client: fix bad encoding of "itemorder item". The itemorder
254 item <no> - command forgot to use length of encoded Item Request
255 package. Error present since YAZ 3.
257 yaz-ztest: fix bad usage of session handle. Bug was introduced when
258 result sets were saved (271a9c83).
260 SRU recordPacking: guess record packing in response rather than looking
261 at the recordPacking element which, OF COURSE, changed semantics in SRU
264 Decode SRU 2.0 responses. The official namespace for responses, according
265 to http://docs.oasis-open.org/search-ws/searchRetrieve/v1.0/cs01/schemas/sruRes
266 appears to be http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/search-ws/sruResponse .
267 nature.com's server, however, usee namespace
268 http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/search-ws/sru-2-0-response . For this reason
269 we are now using a glob-expr to match up the namespace. ZOOM C and
270 yaz-client updated. Perhaps SRU 1.2 uses same namespace, I don't know.
271 I can not find a single real example showing the "real" namespace in
272 the documentation from OASIS. The namespace for requests is different
273 from responses, but this is not added to YAZ yet, when we don't encode
276 --- 4.2.35 2012/06/26
278 zoom/record_render: add support for Base64 decoding fo MARC records
279 within XML element. For example: "xml; charset=marc-8; base64=/my/text()"
280 which will decode base64 + ISO2709 marc-8 encoded material from text node
283 --- 4.2.34 2012/06/07
285 Add missing definitions ZOOM_resultset_get_facet_field_by_index
286 and ZOOM_resultset_facets_names.
288 zoom: fix bad free for ZOOM_connect - happened when ZOOM connection
291 Change APDU dump printing to avoid long leading blanks. For levels 16
292 or larger the level is shown and the indentation is truncated but
293 recursed with modula 8. This makes it still reasonable easy to read
294 - even for nested BER dumps.
296 Fix bug completeBER_n WRT too nested BER. Function completeBER_n could
297 return 0 (incomplete package) in case where the BER package was
298 considered too nested (return value of -2).
300 dumpber: lines of level 15 are not indented further. Two spaces per
301 indentation; indentation 15 or more is indented to a fixed indentation
302 and augmented with a level=<no> indication.
304 zoomsh: increase max size of command+args
306 GFS: No limit in RPN buf size in CQL to RPN conversion.
308 --- 4.2.33 2012/05/09
310 New function for daemon utility, yaz_daemon_stop .
312 Makes yaz_srw_sortkeys_to_sort_spec public on Windows.
314 --- 4.2.32 2012/04/25
316 Add some Bib-1/SRU diagnostics + mappings. Bib-1: 1073 and
317 Bib-1 1074: Proxy failure. SRU: 1074: Proxy failure
319 --- 4.2.31 2012/04/23
321 YAZ daemon utility relays SIGUSR1 to child process.
323 ZOOM: handle trailing slash for Z39.50 urls. Previously localhost:9999/
324 would result in en empty database list - which in turn would result in
325 encoding failure for search.
327 Fix reading beyond string in yaz_sort_spec.
329 --- 4.2.30 2012/04/11
331 Add two new SRU diagnostics:
332 236: Access to specified database denied
333 1015: Init/AC: Maximum number of simultaneous sessions for Userid
335 Document the very useful ZOOM-C option "apdulog".
337 CQL to RPN: term may be passed through verbatim. This is enabled with
338 truncation.cql . The assumption being that the term is already CQL.
340 --- 4.2.29 2012/03/20
342 record_conv: leader spec may be given for marc element.
343 The leader spec is given as attribute leaderspec for element marc.
344 For example to convert a MARC21 record from MARC-8 to UTF-8:
345 <marc inputformat="marc" outputformat="marc"
346 inputcharset="marc-8" outputcharset="utf-8 "leaderspec="9='a'"/>
348 record_conv: allow user-XSLT params. For example:
349 <xslt stylesheet="MARC21slim2DC.xsl">
350 <param name="myparameter" value="myvalue"/>
351 <param name="otherparameter" value="othervalue"/>
354 record_conv: fix error handling for missing marc charsets.
356 CQL: fix extra terms in wrong order.
358 --- 4.2.28 2012/03/06
360 record_conv: modify new API for conversion types. The conversion types
361 may be passed in new functions yaz_record_conv_configure_t and
362 yaz_retrieval_configure_t. Removing yaz_record_conv_add_type .
364 Avoid mixed statement/variable declare; fixes compilation with Visual
367 --- 4.2.27 2012/02/28
369 Add non-standard SRU diagnostic: 235: "Database does not exist".
370 Couldn't live without it. HTTP 404: "Not found" is just so anonymous.
371 Update SRU to Bib-1 diagnostic maps accordingly.
373 CCL: add two new diagnostics for unsupported masking. The new
374 diagnostics are: "Embedded truncation not supported" and
375 "Single charcacter mask not supported".
377 --- 4.2.26 2012/02/23
379 CCL: fix use of "term" field in sub queries. Bug introduced in YAZ 4.2.25.
381 --- 4.2.25 2012/01/11
383 Build YAZ for Ubuntu Oneiric.
385 CCL: allow parantheses for proximity operands. For example CCL query
386 (a) % (b) is now allowed.
388 GFS: fix bend_assoc_is_alive. When cs_get returns 0 the association is
389 marked dead, rather then being destroyed. If not, the session memory is
390 being free'd before the search/scan handler is finished. Also destroy
391 'request' memory in request_release rather than in various places,
392 which resulted in leaks from time to time.
394 --- 4.2.24 2011/12/21
396 cql_sortby_to_sortkeys: honor sort prefix.
398 RPN to CQL: always quote resulting terms. For bizarre reasons, JSTOR's
399 SRU server returns 0 hits on ISSN searches unless a CQL term is quoted.
400 The rpn2cql family of functions now always returns quoted CQL terms.
402 Fix CQL to CCL conversion for multiple terms. Add two test cases as well.
404 --- 4.2.23 2011/12/15
406 Allow =val to be omitted for yaz_uri_to_array. Also, multiple &'s in
407 sequence is treated as one. For example, &&a=b&&&c& is identical to
410 --- 4.2.22 2011/12/05
412 Add ZOOM_connection_save_apdu_wrbuf. This function may be used to save
413 APDUs for a connection to a WRBUF.
415 --- 4.2.21 2011/11/23
417 Fix cql_sortby_to_sortkeys. Completely broken before.
419 Make CCL's @truncation work again.
421 --- 4.2.20 2011/11/09
423 New ZOOM connection setting: tproxy. It's like proxy, but does not
424 set Z39.50 proxy OID or change HTTP for proxy behavior. Can be used
425 to set resolved address + port for a connection outside ZOOM itself.
427 Fix atoi_n_check digit test. Thanks to Giannis Kosmas for spotting it.
429 --- 4.2.19 2011/11/07
431 Fix uninitialized variable in Solr spell support (could cause SEGV
432 for SRU response decoding).
434 Error handling for Z_APDU_close uses ZOOM_set_dset_error() to pass
435 back-end's addinfo through into the ZOOM response addinfo.
437 When ZOOM_set_dset_error() is passed an addinfo2 as well as addinfo,
438 they are separated by a colon and a space rather than simply
441 --- 4.2.18 2011/10/28
443 Add support for Solr spell-checking/suggestions through ZOOM.
444 If a Solr target has been configured correctly for spelling-checking
445 and suggestions, these will now be returned on the ResultSet option
446 "suggestions". zoomsh has been extended to show this with the cmd suggestions.
448 --- 4.2.17 2011/09/28
450 Fix function nmem_strsplit_escape2 which extends nmem_strsplit_escape
451 with a flag whether to substitute escape sequences or not.
453 --- 4.2.16 2011/09/22
455 Fix nmem_strsplit_escape to substitute escape char properly.
457 New option for zoomsh -e , which makes it abort on first error and
458 return process exit code to indicate success/failure.
460 YAZ options utility supports special option -- which makes all it treat
461 all following arguments as non-options.
463 --- 4.2.15 2011/09/16
465 Fix yaz_file_path_resolve/yaz_path_fopen/yaz_fopen so that path is not
466 searched if absolute filename is given.
468 Fix conv_xslt() error-reporting when stylesheet is not found.
469 (The value of fullpath is meaningless in this situation.)
471 --- 4.2.14 2011/09/07
473 Fix problem in CQL sort node creation: un-initialized memory.
475 New ZOOM utility ZOOM_query_sortby2. That takes a strategy parameter: one of
476 "z3950", "type7", "cql", "sru11" or "embed". The "embed" chooses type-7 or
477 CQL sortby depending on whether Type-1 or CQL is actually sent to the
480 New sortspec utilities: yaz_srw_sortkeys_to_sort_spec,
481 yaz_sort_spec_to_srw_sortkeys, yaz_sort_spec_to_type and 7yaz_sort_spec_to_cql.
483 rpn2solr supports Z39.58 truncation (104). Thus, CCL truncation mode t=z
484 will make it possible to use both single-character mask (#) and wildcard (?)
485 in CCL . Throw diagnostic for left truncation because that is not supported
488 --- 4.2.13 2011/09/01
490 Fixes for cql2rpn, cql2ccl and ccl2rpn; mostly in the area of special
491 cases using escapes (\-sequences) and masking.
493 PQF parse fix: A trailing backslash followed by end-of-string (\0)
494 would result in a read one byte beyond string.
496 rpn2ccl may use Z39.50 masking for terms (t=z).
498 ICU check fix. Don't include library -lCrun on Solaris, unless present.
500 ICU check fix: Use --cppflags-searchpath to determine ICU include files;
501 not --cppflags (which seeems like an error in icu-config).
503 --- 4.2.12 2011/08/27 RPM package only
505 cql2ccl: fix conversion of terms: operator characters were not
508 --- 4.2.11 2011/08/25 RPM package only
510 ccl2rpn: Conversion to regexp-1 terms (trunc=102). For mode t=x, the
511 CCL parser will map both # and ? to their regular expression
512 quivalents (. and .*).
514 rpn2cql: deal with truncation=102 (regexp-1). And ensure proper quoting
515 of reserved CQL characters.
517 cql2ccl: deal with both * and ? in conversion. Also leave escaped ones as
518 is, so that they are passed through.
520 --- 4.2.10 2011/08/24
522 ZOOM SRU mode: more aggressive re-connect.
524 Private function prox_unit_name() renamed to yaz_prox_unit_name() and
525 made available as a utility function, declared in <yaz/logrpn.h>
527 rpn2cql_structure() supports proximity nodes (except that the Type-1
528 proximity node's "exclusion" binary is ignored, as there is no way to
529 express that in CQL). Fixes bug #4564.
533 Fix SEGV that could occur if set command of zoomsh was given without
534 value (2nd argument).
536 Fix SEGV that could occur if unsupported transport was given for
537 COMSTACK - say https (when SSL was unavailable).
539 Build yaz-url on Windows too.
543 New utility to get web content. Header is url.h. A command line tool
544 yaz-url is part of the distribution and packages.
546 Fixes for SSL COMSTACK (when gnutls is in use).
548 New functions yaz_base64{encode,decode}. Header is base64.h.
552 ZOOM C includes HTTP response buffer as additional info if it fails
553 to decode the SRU response.
555 Make wrbuf_json_puts available.
559 zoom: throw diagnostic for invalid value for option "sru". Before a
560 bad SRU request was sent.
562 Adding new utility wrbuf_vp_puts.
564 Add cclxmlconfig.obj to win/makefile. It was missing completely.
568 ZOOM HTTP: use absoluteURI's in proxy mode as required by RFC 2616 (HTTP).
569 Fix a bug in handling of cookies. Fix a bug that would occur if proxy +
570 redirect was used at the same time.
572 MARC line mode decoding: be less picky about length given - first
573 5 digits of header that is.
575 CQL to CCL conversion: deal with CQL proximity (cql_to_ccl function).
577 Changes to decoding of SRU records: a record with recordPacking=xml is
578 modified with a new root element <yaz_record> if the recordData contains
579 multiple children elements. This is to make the record XML parseable
582 RPN to Solr conversion: encode special characters.
584 Generic Frontend Server: fix uinitialized member, stepSize.
588 Fix a bug in SRU decoding of records.. The database records stored
589 had un-initialized memory, but it would only be seen with yaz_record_render
590 and type_spec="ext" .
592 Fix a bug in ccl_qual_dup introduced in 4.2.3.
596 Add new CCL utility, ccl_qual_dup, which makes a copy of a CCL bibset.
600 Add new utilities to convert from CQL to CCL . These utilities have
601 prefix cql_to_ccl defined in cql.h.
603 Defensive coding for an off-by-one bug in ucol_getSortKey. This could
604 lead to memory heap corruptions when ICU utilities were in use.
608 Make compilation work without Libxml2.
610 yaz-client: remove redundant blanks in display of searchResult-1 term
615 CQL: parse CQL sortby spec. The resulting sort spec is stored in the
616 resulting CQL node (tree) in a new node CQL_NODE_SORT.
618 CQL and GFS: add utility cql_sortby_to_sortkeys which converts CQL sortby
619 1.2 node tree to CQL 1.1 spec. This in turn allows the generic frontend
620 server to only consider srw_sortkeys and support both SRU 1.1 and 1.2.
621 Note that the CQL sortby spec is only converted when the GFS is already
622 converting from CQL to RPN (cql2rpn element).
624 New function nmem_strsplitx. This is like nmem_strsplit but allows us to
625 specify whether to collapse delimitors or not. The existing nmem_strsplit
626 do collapse (collapse parameter = 1).
628 Windows installer: For NSIS, set InstallDir depending on x86/x64.
630 Rename internal func yaz_use_attribute_create. While non-static, this
631 function is not declared in a public header.
635 Add -lCrun when linking with ICU on Solaris.
637 More quicks character set conversions for OPAC records.
641 fix problem with record_render: records were converted (character set
642 wise) even if no charset was given. Problem introduced in YAZ 4.1.5.
646 SRU: add methods for handling DADS SRU-proxy facets.
648 Separate OPAC record character set for ZOOM_record. yaz_record_render
649 allows a character set given as charset=from/opacfrom,to where 'from' is
650 the character set of a bibliographic record, 'opacfrom' is character set
651 of OPAC record and 'to' is the target character set.
655 yaz-client: show may XML format records. Command show followed by 'format'
656 will format XML records retrieved using Libxml2's xmlDocDumpFormatMemory
659 src/stemmer.c: Avoid using unnamed union. It is not supported by some
662 For PHPYAZ: set YAZVERSION, not YAZ_VERSION.
665 Update yaz.spec to operate on both SLES11 / Centos 5.5.
667 RPM: Release includes 'indexdata' name. Use indexdata in release name so
668 this package can be distinguished from other vendors.
670 yaz-config: Use exec_prefix, libdir, includedir . Use these variables
671 as determined by configure
673 yaz-config: set YAZ_VERSION env. php_yaz relies on it.
675 GFS: Z_PresentStatus_partial_4 for missing record. If bend_fetch handler
676 returns no error and no record, the present request is considered
677 partial (only a subset of the records could be returned by backend), and
678 so it is appropriate to set Present Status to partial-4.
682 Move yaz-config man pages to section 1.
684 More documentation about Solr.
686 tcp comstack: change behavior for @-specs (anyaddr). @ listens on
687 AF_INET (IPV4) peers, and @6 listens to AF_INET6 (ipv6) peers.
688 Previously @ listened on AF_INET6 which accepted both IPV4 and IPV6
689 peers on some Linux systems. However, in general that does not work
690 so YAZ can not rely on that to work. Debian changed behavior in this
691 respect from Debian lenny to Debian squeeze (still testing as of Oct
693 http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-devel@lists.debian.org/msg277726.html
695 zoomsh: remove "debugging" output. Was added by mistake in 4.1.0.
699 Fix yaz-config output: echo_source not set correctly by configure.
703 Solr Web Service support for yaz-client and ZOOM.
705 Define record syntax JSON. OID: 1.2.840.10003.5.1000.81.3 .
707 --- 4.0.12 2010/08/17
709 Z39.50 facet support. Facet specifications are passed for search in
710 other-information with ASN.1 as defined in facet.asn and OID
711 .10.1000.81.5 . Facets are expressed as an Attribute list as known
712 from Type-1/RPN queries. Type 1 is field. Type 2 is sort order. Type
713 3 is limit (number of entries to get in response). yaz-ztest returns
714 dummy facets if a client asks for them.
716 --- 4.0.11 2010/07/09
718 CCL fixes: bug 2895 and bug 3539.
720 GR1-display: add comma in display - was removed by mistake in
723 Windows installer: bundle MSVCP90.dll - used by icuuc42.dll.
725 SRU: Merge cookies on HTTP redirects (Giannis Kosmas <kosmas@lib.uoc.gr>).
727 --- 4.0.10 2010/06/18
729 ZOOM C: Add ZOOM_resultset_release. ZOOM_resultset_release releases a
730 result set from a connection. The result set will be on its own
731 thereafter; no operations on it will perform retrievals from a target.
732 Only cached copies are returned.
734 ZOOM C:fix case for HTTP servers responding with Connection:close.
735 Ensure that if there is a current task it is resumed (like fetching
736 more records in a result set) . Bug #3484.
738 PQF parser: use odr_atoi for Odr_int (not atoi)
740 Minor PQF encoding and decoding changes; reformat. PQF decoding: attribute
741 values that contain any non-digits are treated as string attributes
742 (previously decoding only checked for leading character ([0-9]). PQF
743 encoding: attribute string values are not surrounded by double-quotes.
747 New utility for managing threads - thread_create.h.
749 Add socket pipe utility - spipe.h. The socket pipe has same purpose as
750 Unix pipe . Unfortunately Windows pipes do not work on select/poll -
751 but YAZ' implementation do.
753 Fixes for yaz_cond-functions on Windows 7.
755 DLL export more symbols.
757 zoomsh: show record do NOT render opac.
759 Remove *.la files from Debian and RPM packages.
763 Debian package libyaz-dev depends on libgnutls-dev again (was
764 removed in YAZ 4.0.6, but due to Libtool it is still needed
765 even though yaz-config do not list libgnutls libs).
767 ZOOM: Use only one WRBUF for returning string results for
768 ZOOM_resultset. Reduces memory usage for ZOOM in general.
770 ZOOM: ZOOM_connection do not use a shared pointer to
771 ZOOM_resultset after ZOOM_resultset is destructed by
772 user. Reverts to YAZ 4.0.4 behavior.
776 record-conv: fix problem with at least one XSL conversion -
777 due to probably incorrect usage of XML XSL documents.
781 Fix yaz-config for static mode and the use of SSL (gnutls).
785 Forward decl timeval struct in mutex.h and gettimeofday.h.
787 yaz-config: fix 'static' mode linking.
791 Add functions yaz_cond_{create,destroy,wait,signal,broadcast}. These
792 are wrappers for pthreads or Windows. For Windows these are put in
793 a separate DLL: yaz_cond4.
795 libyaz.la (whole source) is compiled with thread. If thread support
796 is enabled enabled, all source of YAZ is compiled with treading support.
797 This allows core utilities such as yaz_log to use thread facilities.
798 Previously (YAZ 3 and YAZ 4 releases), only libyaz_server.la was using
799 thread utilities. This commit moves mutex utilities (mutex.c) from
800 libyaz_server.la to libyaz.la.
802 yaz-json-parse displays leading text until error.
806 Handle HTTP redirect for SRU GET in yaz-client and ZOOM C. Based on
807 patch from Giannis Kosmas.
809 SRU: no longer URL encode SRU database. The URL for an SRU server is
810 a URL and such is alreeady encoded - at least when given with leading
811 http:// or https://. This reverts behavior to YAZ 3.0.50.
813 Support for new MARC XML notation TurboMARC which like MARCXML is a
814 complete representation of MARC/ISO2709.. This one, however, is more
815 compact and allows for faster processing with XSLT. TurboMARC can be
816 used in the marcdisp.h API, from the yaz-marcdump utility and from
819 yaz-ztest can be configured - via the database - to perform certain
820 delays when it performs operations search, present and single record
821 fetch. This allows testers to make yaz-ztest act as a real or even slow
822 Z39.50 server. Refer to the yaz-ztest man pages for details.
826 wrbuf_destroy allows NULL WRBUF passed to it.
828 Fix CCL qualifier aliases (did not work since YAZ 2.1.56).
830 Add ZOOM_connection_close.
832 No fixed size buffers for ZOOM shell - bug #3257.
834 tstodr: make it work on s390 platform.
836 New icu iterator-functions. The new icu_iter-functions makes it possible
837 to use ICU chains from many threads.
839 yaz-client: better syntax check for show command.
843 New glob file pattern utility. Like POSIX glob. For Windows too. Refer to
846 New simple local-file XML include facility which allows file glob-patterns.
847 Refer to yaz/xml_include.h.
849 Utility yaz-json-parse which parses JSON and demonstrates the JSON parser
852 ZOOM_record_get supports new parameter "format" which makes it format XML
855 Fix JSON parser WRT start symbol. The start grammar symbol (referred to as
856 JSONText in ECMA-262) is JSONValue, not JSONObject.
860 Windows binaries for YAZ now compiled with Visual Studio 2008 (VC9).
861 Older versions of YAZ was compiled with Visual Studio 6.0 (1998).
863 Update so/DLL to version 4. Windows version builds YAZ4.DLL.
864 POSIX/Unix builds .so with major version 4.
866 Remove old LOG_-defines from log.h. They have been obsolete and
867 undefined by default for the last 5 years.
869 Odr_int is now of type 'long long'. Used to be 'int' in YAZ 3 series.
871 GFS: Remove socket (int *fd) from search_rr handler. The socket
872 descriptor ptr is a facility that allowed a search handler to supply
873 a socket which would serve as a callback - when search was complete.
874 This facility has now been in use for years.
876 COMSTACK API changes: cs_stackerr, cs_addrstr. COMSTACK method cs_stackerr
877 removed. It is not implemented by tcpip or unix COMSTACK, perhaps for ISO
878 SR which was removed 7 years ago. COMSTACK macro / method cs_addrstr now
879 returns 'const char *' rather than 'char *. The returned string is
880 read-only and should not be modified by applications. COMSTACK cs_close is
881 now a void function - it no longer returns int. No applications check for
882 the value and the implementations has always returned 0.
884 ZOOM: use size_t for scan hit counts and str size. Functions
885 ZOOM_scanset_term and ZOOM_scanset_display_term have changed, so that
886 occ (hit count) and len (string length) are now of type size_t pointer
887 rather than int pointer. This is to be able to represent large hit counts
888 and to also just to use the proper type for string length (strlen result).
890 New JSON parser. Refer to include/yaz/json.h .
892 WRBUF API changes.. For size parameters for WRBUF size_t is now used ..
893 Used to be int in some cases. Many wrbuf_-functions used to return an int
894 indicating some length.. These return values were never used. And so they
897 ODR: odr_malloc, odr_total now takes size_t for size.
899 clone_z_type: fix leak; occurred for encoding failures.
901 --- 3.0.52 2009/12/03
903 tcpip comstack: fix use of uinitialized variable in cs_straddr. This
904 bug was introduced in 3.0.51.
906 --- 3.0.51 2009/12/02
908 tcpip comstack: Remove TCP receiver buffer optimizations for Solaris.
910 tcpip comstack: fix leak for getaddrinfo.
912 Encoding of SRU database is performed by yaz_encode_sru_dbpath_odr or
913 yaz_encode_sru_dbpath_buf. Now used by yaz-client and the ZOOM API.
914 Decoding of SRU "path" database is performed by private function
915 yaz_decode_sru_dbpath_odr . This in turn is used by yaz_srw_decode
916 and yaz_sru_decode in server applications, GFS, yazproxy, metaproxy.
918 yaz-client: honor base command for SRU. Change when database setting
919 is applied for SRU and ensure it is kept when a connection is reset.
920 Change also the way errors are displayed or SRU (decoding of packages).
922 --- 3.0.50 2009/11/02
924 Add support for extra request / response data for SRU codecs and GFS.
925 The Z_SRW_PDU structure has two new members extraResponseData_{buf,len}
926 for extra data response buffer and length. For the GFS, both request
927 and response data (XML) is carried in extra_args and extra_response_data
928 for the search handler. Patch by Ko van der Sloot.
930 ZOOM: For queries that cannot be converted to the specified rpnCharset,
931 ZOOM now returns a diagnostic on the client-side ('invalid query' /
932 10010). This fixes bug #2113.
934 yaz-client fix: If cmdfile is passed to yaz-client (option -f) and that
935 cmdfile included a 'quit' command that would result in a memory violation.
937 --- 3.0.49 2009/10/01
939 Make a number of functions defined in xmlquery.c static. These have
940 never been declared in a public header file (yaz/xmlquery.h) and was
941 made public by mistake.
943 Improve speed of character conversions (iconv utilities). This makes
944 conversions from MARC-8 faster.
946 ZOOM_record_get returns 0 pointer if a MARC record can not be decoded -
947 unless type desired is "raw". This will prevent type "xml" from
948 returning ISO2709 .. Which obviously can not be XML parsed.
950 Fix memory leak in ZOOM that would occur if option apdulog was used
951 on a re-used connection.
953 Frontend server logs HTTP requests.
955 Frontend server now sends Z39.50 close when it times out (sesssion has
956 been idle for too long). Versions 2.0.30 and earlier also sent close.
957 But due to a mistake this was disabled in all versions after that, i.e.
958 the server would just close the socket immediately.
960 yaz-client emits a better message when receiving an unrecognised
961 userInformationField.
963 Skip zero-length subfields when decoding ISO2709. This rare case happens
964 if a record has two FS characters in a sequence. Without this patch
965 there would be a reference beyond char array in using_code_len fragments
968 Fix yaz-marcdump error that would occur if option -n was used (bug #3028).
970 --- 3.0.48 2009/08/28
972 The show command offered by the zoomsh command now takes a 3d optional
973 parameter type which is what is passed to ZOOM_record. If the type
974 argument is omitted, "render" is used.
976 RPN to CQL conv may use USE string attributes (bug #2978).
978 MarcXchange NS is now info:lc/xmlns/marcxchange-v1 .
980 --- 3.0.47 2009/07/08
982 Function yaz_xml2query allows a diagnostic element in the PQF XML
983 representation .. diagnostic@code and diagnostic@addinfo is diagnostic
984 code and additional info respectively.
986 The BER BOOLEAN is now the integral type Odr_bool which still happens
987 to be an 'int'. The BER INTEGER which used to be a plain 'int' is now
988 typedef'd to Odr_int. This is still an integral 'int', but it may be
989 changed to 64-bit via a one-liner in nmem.h (NMEM_64=1). The documentation,
990 ASN-1 compiler as well as programs has been updated to use the new types.
992 --- 3.0.46 2009/06/08
994 zoom: ZOOM_record_get now renders OPAC records when type=xml. Previously
995 only the bibliographic record was rendered. For type=opac, an OPAC
996 record is only returned if it is present.
998 iconv: small fix for encoding of advancegreek.
1000 yaz-client: avoid double display of SRU/SRW records (bug #2798).
1002 yaz-client: option auto_reconnect=on really reconnects.
1004 yaz-client: fix bug #2770 - avoid length limit for auth parameters.
1006 server: avoid null ptr ref for for yaz_poll errors.
1008 build: fix RPM build for RHEL 5.3.
1010 comstack: prefer IPV6 addresses over IPV4 - should refix bug #2350
1012 --- 3.0.45 2009/03/31
1014 Fixed bug #2709: TCP connect returns Invalid argument.
1016 Fixed compilation for mingw.
1018 Honor charset for raw records (ZOOM_record_get).
1020 Fixed use of errno for threaded mode that was seen on Solaris 10.
1022 Fixed argument passing with blanks in value for Windows Service.
1024 Disable YAZ' own log rotate by default (no 1 GB limit).
1025 The variable l_max_size which specifies the log file limit is set to 0
1026 (DISABLED): This is due to the fact that YAZ is most often deployed using
1027 logrotate. Also YAZ can not perform log rotate because of unsufficient
1028 permissions (setuid).
1030 --- 3.0.44 2009/02/17
1032 List supported encodings in man page for yaz-iconv.
1034 Fixed missing SSL libs for --libs output
1036 Re-established OID record syntax application-xml. Nobody should use it
1037 but we don't want to change soname because of this symbol being absent.
1039 --- 3.0.42 2009/02/02
1041 YAZ' RPM spec works for both SUSE Linux Enterprise and RedHat Fedora.
1043 Added member named_result_sets for init handler struct for the GFS. This
1044 allows a server to disable named result sets.
1046 Removed OID record syntax application-xml.
1048 Added support for rule-based transliterator for ICU wrapper of YAZ.
1050 Fixed bug #1902: yaz-icu XML output.
1052 Make YAZ checks Emacs friendly.
1054 BITSTRING value shows value. Bug #2346.
1056 ISO2709 decoding: skip control characters from indicator data.
1058 Omit sort key by default in yaz-icu's output.
1060 Allow combined single char options (again) for YAZ' options function.
1062 Utility yaz-marcdump got option to display YAZ version (-V).
1064 Allow YAZ to use ICU 3.4.
1066 Added new ICU test case which illustrates removal of diacritics.
1068 --- 3.0.41 2008/12/29
1070 Fixed Fixed test that makes VERSION_SHA1 appear on dist versions too.
1072 --- 3.0.40 2008/12/29
1074 For configure, using option --without-xml2 also disables Libxslt/Libexslt
1077 Fixed bug #2352: yaz-marcdump crashes for certain record.
1079 Added man page 'bib1-attr' which includes list of common Bib-1 attributes.
1081 Added support for Danmarc2 to UTF-8 conversion.
1083 Added support for ISO5426 to UTF-8 conversion.
1085 zget_InitRequest/zget_InitResponse returns GIT SHA1 hash as part of
1086 implementation version.
1088 Function yaz_version returns GIT SHA1 hash for parameter sha1_str.
1090 --- 3.0.38 2008/11/10
1092 ZOOM C now only fires one ZOOM_EVENT_SEARCH per search-task. Previously,
1093 ZOOM_EVENT_SEARCH was fired for each searchRetrieve Response received.
1095 ZOOM C now interprets databaseName option for ZOOM connection as path
1098 Windows version bundled with Libxml2 2.7.1 / Libxslt 1.1.24 / ICU 4.0.
1100 Fixed CCL to RPN/PQF conversion which could result in invalid PQF.
1102 Dummy Libxml2 types no longer defined in headers of YAZ'.
1104 Fixed memory violation for ZOOM C - could occur when SRU diagnostics was
1107 --- 3.0.36 2008/09/26
1109 Various ODR chapter fixes.
1111 Windows version uses libxml2 2.6.32+, libxslt 1.1.23+ and ICU 4.0.
1113 Added missing source for Windows compilation, mutex.c.
1115 Fixed compilation of YAZ for Visual Studio 2008. Bug #2256.
1117 For SRU connections in ZOOM all records up to "count" are now fetched.
1119 Fixed crash in generic frontend server (and yaz-ztest) which occurred
1120 in Windows due to bad error handling for Libxml2.
1122 Added facility for sending arbitrary records (ASN.1 any) using
1123 ZOOM C's Extended service update. Patch by Sam Reynolds.
1125 New options for ZOOM C's connection, logapdu which makes ZOOM log
1128 --- 3.0.34 2008/06/18
1130 YAZ uses GNU TLS without the OpenSSL compatibility wrapper.
1132 --- 3.0.32 2008/06/12
1134 Fixed memory violation that could occur when decoding UTF-8. This bug
1135 was only present in 3.0.30 of YAZ.
1137 --- 3.0.30 2008/06/06
1139 Implemented SSL sockets using GNU TLS. OpenSSL is still supported, but
1140 GNU TLS is used by default (if found).
1142 yaz-ztest returns OPAC records if a client asks for OPAC.
1144 Improved speed of MARC-8 encoding.
1146 Added support for lossy and loss-less MARC-8 encoding.
1148 Changed yaz_record_conv_record to be reentrant for XSLT conversions.
1150 Added new Windows Service wrapper (sc).
1152 yaz-client's itemorder command may now send a file.
1154 Fixed yaz-marcdump to allow the use of NS prefix for record element.
1156 Added new function yaz_log_xml_errors.
1158 Allow (but warn) unknown XML attributes in MARCXML parsing.
1160 Handle G1 sequneces in MARC-8 decoding. Bug #2115.
1162 The UTF-8 to MARC-8 conversion now uses a different set of characters
1163 for Greek symbols. Bug #2120.
1165 --- 3.0.26 2008/02/21
1167 Added yaz_daemon (daemon.h).
1169 Fixed bug #2068: pkg-config trouble
1171 Fixed bug #395: ZOOM_record / OPAC record encoding problems.
1173 --- 3.0.24 2008/01/28
1175 Document --with-xml2 option.
1177 Added OPAC XML XSD (etc/opacxml.xsd).
1179 Allow glob mask for name attribute in retrieval element for the
1180 generic frontend server's retrieval facility.
1182 Changed yaz_poll_poll to return yaz_poll_except for all returned events
1183 except POLLIN/POLLOUT.
1185 Fixed error handling in cs_listen. Bug #2037.
1187 --- 3.0.22 2008/01/20
1189 Fixed version in yaz/yaz-version.h.
1191 Fixed bug #2027: Crash when closing connection.
1193 Changed configure so that ICU support is only enabled if only ICU
1194 and Libxml2 is available (because the ICU chain is XML based).
1196 --- 3.0.20 2008/01/15
1198 YAZ now makes ICU utilities for Windows. A separate DLL, yaz_icu3.dll,
1199 is built. Only this DLL depends on the ICU runtime.
1201 yaz-ziffy is no longer part of YAZ. It is distributed separately by
1202 Index Data because ziffy's license is GPL2 rather then 'Revised BSD'.
1204 Changed license of CCL module to 'Revised BSD'. After consultation with
1205 remaining members of the original EUROPAGATE consortium, we are re-issuing
1206 the CCL module without a separate license. The software was developed by
1207 Index Data as part of a research project. The special license was included
1208 to help feed usage information back to the project consortium to support
1209 project evaluation. At this time, the project consortium has long-since
1210 disbanded, and the majority of the original principals have retired. At the
1211 same time, we have significantly modified the software during the following
1212 years, to the point where very practically no original code remains. To
1213 simplify re-use of the software, we have contacted those members of the
1214 consortium who could be reached, and agreed to re-issue the module as a
1215 proper part of the YAZ package.
1217 Tcl scripts uses /usr/bin/tclsh as preferred shell.
1219 CQL closer to being version 1.2 compliant. CQL also allows free-form
1220 terms, such as 'title=a b', and thus, make the CQL parser more CCL-like
1223 Fixed bug in ZOOM_options_getl WRT setting of parameter lenp. This
1224 bug could make Extended services handling crash in the ZOOM layer. This
1225 bug was only present in YAZ 3.0.18.
1227 --- 3.0.18 2007/12/19
1229 ziffy uses YAZ' options rather than getopt; getopt is unavailable on
1232 yaz-marcdump reads and writes collection wrapped records.
1234 Handle OPAC for record conversion module.
1236 Fixes for ICU wrapper.
1238 Allow ICU libs to be controlled with --with-icu .
1240 --- 3.0.16 2007/11/12
1242 Added yaz_poll which is a wrapper for select/poll. When poll is available
1243 and non-buggy, it is used, by yaz_poll . This allows more than 1024
1244 sockets to be in use.
1246 Added ICU wrapper library which exposes ICU http://www.icu-project.org/
1247 functionality through an XML based configuration (ICU chain). This system
1248 is useful for search facilities such as Pazpar2 and Zebra that needs to
1249 perform tokenization of indexed material. The ICU code in a separate
1250 library libyaz3_icu.a.
1252 Added HTTP tunnel facility for COMSTACK, bug #1752.
1253 This is a facility that allows a Web proxy, such as squid, to tunnel
1254 Z39.50 traffic. This facility is "transparent" to must applications
1255 using YAZ. It's enabled by using pseudo transport connect: followed by
1256 the proxy address, followed by command, then follwed by he regular
1257 "virtual" addresss. For example,
1258 connect:webproxy.com:3128,tcp:z3950.loc.gov:7090/voyager .
1260 More MARC-8/UTF-8 conversion fixes. Bugs #1666, #1667, #1778.
1262 --- 3.0.14 2007/09/21
1264 Fixed bad memory reference in ZOOM_record - cuased by member not being
1265 initialized. This was a problem only in YAZ 3.0.12.
1267 Fixed bug in conversion from MARC to XML: Non-XML characters in control
1268 fields were not removed.
1270 Changed the way C code is generated from codetables.xml. Made a MARC-8
1271 conversion trie for each characterSet section rather than codeTable.
1272 This is ensure the code can deal with G0/G1 sequences. Use of a newer version
1273 of codetables.xml from Larry Dixson, LOC. Bug #1464.
1275 --- 3.0.12 2007/09/12
1277 ZOOM C now handles SRU surrogate diagnostics (i.e. errors returned
1278 from ZOOM_record_error).
1280 ZOOM C function ZOOM_record_get returns record schema for type="schema".
1282 Implemented HTTP Basic authentication to SRU/GET, SRU/POST and SRW requests.
1284 Added new ZOOM C connection option 'sru_option' which specifies SRU version.
1286 Better SRW-to-Bib-1 diagnostic mapping.
1288 ZOOM C and yaz-client announces SRU version 1.2 by default.
1290 yaz-client 'sru' command may specifiy both SRU version and transport (SOAP,
1293 Fixed in yaz_sru_decode to allow other version than 1.1.
1295 --- 3.0.10 2007/08/22
1297 Added support for SRU scan for ZOOM.
1299 Added support for the use of the older versions or Extended Service
1300 Update in ZOOM. To faciliate this, an option "updateVersion" may be
1301 set to the version , 1=first, 2=second, 3=third. The third version is
1302 what ZOOM C has used so far. And that, obviously, is the default.
1304 Added support for CCL queries in Z39.50 queries sent to the GFS (and
1305 therefore in Zebra and in SimpleServer-based applications). The new
1306 <ccl2rpn> element in a GFS configuration file, if present, names a CCL
1307 qualifier file used to transform incoming CCL queries into Type-1 RPN,
1308 which is passed into the back-end search callback function.
1310 Added support for HTTP Basic authentication in clients: the SRU/W
1311 codec encodes the username/password elements of the PDU structure
1312 appropriately, and these may be set using the "user" and "password"
1313 options in ZOOM-C applications (the same options that are used for
1314 Z39.50 authentication).
1316 --- 3.0.8 2007/06/25
1318 Fixed bug #1208: SSL appears to be broken in ZOOM.
1320 Fixed bug #1206: Libxml2 include path weirdness.
1322 Added oid_name_to_dotstring.
1324 Allow elementSetName to be specified for ZOOM C record update.
1326 Allow waitAction to be specified for ZOOM C based for Extended Services.
1328 Fixed NULL ptr reference bug in yaz-ztest - caused by omitted record
1329 syntax OID. Bug introduced in YAZ 3 series.
1331 Updated WIN32 build to include Libxml2 2.6.28 / Libxslt 1.1.19.
1333 --- 3.0.6 2007/06/06
1335 Fixed bug #1157: yaz-client does not read .yazclientrc from current
1336 directory. yaz-client now reads commands from file given by option -f
1337 if specified; then tries to read .yazclientrc in current directory.
1338 Failing that, it reads .yazclientrc from user's home directory.
1340 Added support for correlationInfo Note and ID for Record Update via
1343 Added yaz-client command querycharset which specifies character set for
1344 query terms for Z39.50 RPN queries and Z39.50 Scan Requests
1345 (termListAndStartPoint).
1347 Charset ISO5428:1984 is an alias for ISO5428-1984.
1349 Implemented a way to perform scan in a result set using Z39.50. This
1350 is achieved by attaching the result set name in the characterInfo
1351 (type InternationalString) of OtherInformation in the Scan Request PDU.
1352 The result set is identified in the otherinformation by the new OID:
1353 USERINFO, Z3950_PREFIX.10.1000.81.4, "Scan-Set
1354 This allows for scan in result set and faceted search . Zebra did some
1355 of this in the APT term using attribute type 8 and value being result
1356 set. Using the OtherInformation approach for this is cleaner and easier
1357 to work with in proxies and the like. This facility can be used in
1358 yaz-client using new command setscan which takes a result set as first
1359 argument, start position (APT) as second.
1361 Changed decoding of SRU XML packed records to deal with servers that
1362 have recordData with XML data with multiple root nodes. Also make
1363 comparison for recordPacking case insensitive. Again, one server
1364 returns "XML" where others return "xml".
1366 For SRU responses allow Content-Type application/xml as well as text/xml.
1368 --- 3.0.4 2007/05/21
1370 Fixed bug in character set conversion of BER strings. Bug introduced
1373 --- 3.0.2 2007/05/08
1375 For OIDs use Odr_oid type everywhere, i.e. do not assume Odr_oid=int.
1377 For OID class, use oid_class consistently.
1379 Fixed external handling for SUTRS and Explain records (bug appeared in 3.0
1382 Added partial support for ISO5428-1984, which is the "Greek alphabet coded
1383 character set for bibliographic information interchange". By Giannis Kosmas.
1385 Added documentation on new OID API.
1387 --- 3.0.0 2007/05/02
1389 Changes to generic frontend server interface: added new member
1390 'query_charset' for bend_initrequest structure. A backend init handler
1391 should set this member to its native character set for query terms.
1392 When defined, the frontend server logic will announce this character set
1393 to a client if the negotiationModel bit is set by the client. All server
1394 implementors are encouraged to specify this. If a backend server does not
1395 specify this a warning is issued using yaz_log(YLOG_WARN,..).
1397 Added CCL utility to remove terms (stop words) from resulting RPN
1398 tree. This is handled by functions with prefix ccl_stop_words_ .
1400 New ZOOM C option, "rpnCharset", which allows client-side conversion of
1401 terms in RPN queries.
1403 Clean-up the CCL API. Moved some internal structures from ccl.h to
1404 private header cclp.h. Changed ccl_parser_create so that a Bibset must
1405 be supplied. Removed tokenize API from ccl.h - including ccl_parser_find.
1406 This is replaced by ccl_parser_find_str which takes a string instead.
1408 Split YAZ library into two libs : libyaz.la and libyaz_server.la.
1409 libyaz.la is the core of YAZ except the generic frontend server and
1410 does not depend on POSIX threads anymore. libyaz_server.la is the
1411 generic frontend server facilities and uses POSIX thread functionality
1412 if available. The libyaz.la no longer depends on POSIX threads because
1413 the number of global structures is limited. NMEM no longer re-uses blocks
1414 between threads ; it simply free's memory immediately but allocates in
1415 "large" chunks as usual. We don't expect any performance penalties
1416 because of this. The yaz_log system is still using a global log_level so
1417 caution must be taken when modifying it with yaz_log_init_.. +
1418 yaz_log_mask_str. This, however, should not cause any trouble because
1419 these functions are called during initialization of application code
1420 anyway. `yaz-config --libs server` returns libs for server applications;
1421 `yaz-config --libs` returns libs for non-server applications.
1423 New OID database - with public definitions in oid_db.h. Removed old OID
1424 database including the head oid.h and definitions such as enum oid_value
1425 and struct oident. The new OID database uses the same string names as
1426 before but the 'protocol' is gone. There are now only two representations
1427 raw OID (int *) and string. Functions with prefix yaz_string_to_oid
1428 converts from string to OID; functions with prefix yaz_oid_to_string
1429 converts the other way.
1431 Change to emit_term() in CQL-to-PQF query translation: when a term has
1432 the /regexp relation modifier, do not process it for leading and
1433 trailing "^" and "*", which have quite different meanings in regular
1436 Attempted fix of bug #976: Segfault in yaz_iconv. The yaz_iconv function
1437 write handlers no longer carries a 'last' parameter. This will make
1438 yaz_iconv flush "less" characters. A flush is performed by call to
1439 yaz_iconv(cd, 0, 0, &outbut, &outbytesleft) .
1441 Definition of wrbuf_diags moved to querytowrbuf.h. Function wrbuf_put_zquery
1442 removed, because function yaz_query_to_wrbuf does the same.
1444 API changes to WRBUF. wrbuf_free removed; replaced by wrbuf_destroy. And
1445 wrbuf_puts no longer appends '\0'. Use wrbuf_cstr to get C-string out.
1447 Deprecated MARC utility functions removed.
1449 Changed prototype of yaz_marc_decode_buf: const char for result and size_t
1452 Branch split: YAZ_2_1_55_branch
1454 --- 2.1.54 2007/03/16
1456 Fix to ZOOM-C so that transparent reconnection is properly handled on
1457 connections that are in asynchronous mode.
1459 Fixed compilation on OpenBSD 4.0.
1461 Large strings in GRS-1 records are now properly displayed in yaz-client.
1463 Added character conversion support for "advancegreek"; based on patch from
1466 Fixed yaz_iconv to return YAZ_ICONV_EINVAL if an incomplete MARC-8 combo
1467 sequence is met. Before the error was not set so it would be unknown.
1469 Adjust yaz-marcdump MARC reader so that it skips until record separator
1472 --- 2.1.52 2007/03/07
1474 ZOOM-C: Removed hardcoded limit of 1024 sockets in ZOOM_event_sys_poll().
1475 Note that ZOOM_event_sys_select() still has the limit due to the fixed-size
1476 fd_set structure used as a bitmask for the FDs to be selected on.
1478 Using ACX_PTHREAD macro to check for POSIX threads.
1480 Fixed have-vsnprintf check.
1482 --- 2.1.50 2007/02/23
1484 Fixes for configure on BSD. Bug #900.
1486 Added snprintf/vsnprintf wrappers for systems that don't have
1487 limits (heavens forbid).
1489 Fixed bug in ZOOM-C's event and task handling. If a ZOOM task was
1490 created before all previous tasks were completed and removed from the
1491 task queue, the new task could be removed by a mistake.
1493 Fixed bug #615: Document retrievalInfo facilities for Frontend Server.
1495 Implemented pass-through CQL-to-PQF conversions. Bug #861.
1497 Fixed bug #832: Problem with MARC/charset in yaz-client.
1499 Fixed bug #668: save command line history for yaz-client.
1501 Fixed bug #830: pkg-config support.
1503 --- 2.1.48 2007/01/23
1505 Extended ZOOM result set options with two options that may be read by
1506 a client: resultSetStatus and presentStatus with values as specified for
1508 http://www.loc.gov/z3950/agency/markup/04.html#Search-status
1510 Fixed bug #827: Using SSL fails on Debian etch.
1512 Fixed bug #826: Weird looking chars for set of MARC records.
1514 Implemented alternative Item Order package for ZOOM. If option "doc" is set,
1515 that is treated as an ItemOrder with itemRequest being an XML document
1516 external. The value of "doc" is the content.
1518 Extended the GFS search facility. New member of bend_search_rr
1519 'estimated_hit_count' signals that hits is known to be an estmate
1520 (higher or lower than real hit count). New member 'partial_resultset'
1521 signals that the search was partial (hit count is lower or equal than
1522 real hit count). For Z39.50, the information is stored in resultSetStatus
1523 member of SearchResponse APDU. For SRU, the information is signalled
1524 via SRU diagnostic 59: "Result set created with valid partial results
1527 Switched from jade/pdfjdaetex to dblatex for Docbook documentation in PDF.
1529 --- 2.1.46 2007/01/13
1531 Implemented bug #806: Deal with HTTP clients sending LF in HTTP headers.
1533 Added ZOOM_connection_peek_event.
1535 Implemented Generic select hook for ZOOM (bug #803). This is achieved with
1536 the following new functions:
1537 ZOOM_event_nonblock, ZOOM_connection_process,
1538 ZOOM_connection_get_{socket,mask,timeout},
1539 ZOOM_connection_fire_event_{timeout,socket}.
1540 The existing blocking event handler, ZOOM_event, is a wrapper for the
1541 + blocking ZOOM_event_sys_{poll,select}.
1543 Implemented function ccl_xml_config which parses XML version of CCL
1544 configuration (bug #798).
1546 Fixed bug #797: yaz_marc_write_xml does not honor character conversion.
1548 Added timings utility (yaz/timing.h)
1550 --- 2.1.44 2007/01/03
1552 Added yaz_marc_write_xml which creates MARCXML/MarcXchange record as
1555 Fixed bug #779: Rotation of apdu.log fails.
1557 Fixed for character set conversions:
1558 Unicode to MARC-8 conversion for certain less preferred UTF-8 sequences.
1559 Honor G1 set in MARC-8 decoding.
1561 --- 2.1.42 2006/12/17
1563 Fixed bug #775: char conversion does not handle Alternative UTF-8
1566 Implemented function yaz_marc_read_line which parses MARC line format
1567 records. There is a wealth of formats out there. So far, this function
1568 reads line records produced by yaz_marc_write_line.
1570 yaz-marcdump's options -x, -X, -I, -e have been replaced with the
1571 more generic and easier to remember(!) options: -i format and -o format
1572 which specifies input format and output format respectively - where
1573 format is one of "marc", "marcxml", "line", "marcxchange".
1575 Added 'check only' option for MARC utilities. Option -n for yaz-marcdump
1576 does not print anything except warnings for records.
1578 For yaz-marcdump, added support for MARC split into files (-s) with a given
1581 Changed the SRU update structures and codecs to reflect the SRU pre 1.0
1582 spec, at http://www.loc.gov/standards/sru/record-update/
1583 This has changed the binary layout of the following structs:
1584 Z_SRW_extra_record, Z_SRW_updateRequest, Z_SRW_updateResponse and
1585 bend_update_rr . Patch by Ko van der Sloot.
1587 Added GFS utility function bend_assoc_is_alive which returns 1 if
1588 association is still alive (client is connected); 0 otherwise (client
1589 closed connection). This allows busy servers to stop working for
1592 Added ziffy: the promiscuous Z39.50 APDU sniffer. until now, ziffy has
1593 been a separate piece of software. This version of ziffy has been modified
1594 to fit with YAZ. ziffy is copyright Rocco Carbone and covered by GPL v2.
1596 Fixed bug #740: Handle SRU records referring to xmlns's outside recordData.
1598 Fixed bug #722: Allow Z39.50 Init Options to be specified / retrieved.
1599 Client code may now interrogate options such as "init_opt_sort" to
1600 find out whether the server claims to support various options.
1602 --- 2.1.40 2006/11/27
1604 Added utilities yaz_{set,get}_esn to set/get element set name from
1607 Removed the build of libyazthread.la. The libyaz.so is the threaded version
1608 of YAZ and has been so since YAZ 2.1.10.
1610 Implemented ZOOM_record_error which returns error information for
1611 record (surrogate diagnostic).
1613 --- 2.1.38 2006/10/31
1615 Updates for SRU Update by Ko van der Sloot:
1616 1. Changed name from "operation" to "action"
1617 2. Fixed that that "recordIdentifier" was called "recordId". Kept the old
1618 versions in the code, marked as 'backward compatible'.
1619 3. Added diagnostics for SRU Update.
1621 Fixed bug #709: Records are fetched in wrong format when tasks are queued.
1623 Fixed bug #707: CQL->RPN ignores lines with leading spaces.
1625 Fixed bug #706: XML hex encoding UTF-8 chars out of range 0-255.
1627 For GFS, fixed problem with SRU diagnostic 'First record position out of
1628 range' being issued for 0 hits.
1630 zoomtst10 part of Windows Build.
1632 --- 2.1.36 2006/10/13
1634 Implemented yaz_filepath_comp which splits a path into file path
1635 components (required by Zebra 2.0.3+).
1637 Change wording of YAZ license to the 'Revised BSD License'. YAZ has used a
1638 BSD inspired license until now so this should not have any real impact on
1639 anybody. See http://www.opensource.org/licenses/bsd-license.php
1641 Fixed bug #687: Missing log lines.
1643 Fixed bug #678: CQL to PQF translation does not preserve double-quote
1646 Fixed bug #689: SRU diagnostics to be added.
1648 Implemented new ZOOM function, ZOOM_connection_is_idle, which checks
1649 whether a connection is idle (no more work do do).
1651 --- 2.1.34 2006/10/04
1653 Change type of optval from long to int for invocation of setsockopt with
1654 the SO_REUSEADDR option. Thanks to Ateeq A. Altaf, Talis.
1656 Added support for specifying the max log file size for the Generic
1657 Frontend Server. The size is given with option -r.
1659 --- 2.1.32 2006/09/21
1661 Fix problem introduced in YAZ 2.1.28 WRT unix sockets in the ZOOM code.
1663 --- 2.1.30 2006/09/17
1665 Fixes for getaddrinfo use, Bugs #655 + #660. These bugs were introduced
1668 Fixed bug in Generic Frontend Server that could cause a server to stop
1669 accepting new connections. Bug only seen on dual CPU Windows 2003 server.
1671 For the generic frontend server, the maximum record size is used as maximum
1672 size of incoming packages (SRU + Z39.50). The value until was previously
1673 only used in Z39.50 Init negotiation and, later, in a session controlled
1674 sizes of records returned. This is controlled using -k option. It can be
1675 specified, per server, with element maximumrecordsize in YAZ' GFS XML config.
1677 --- 2.1.28 2006/09/04
1679 TCP/IP comstack uses getaddrinfo now to resolve names. It should be IPV6
1682 Fixed bug #644: Using Non Reentrant gethostbyname causes SIGSEGV.
1684 New option for yaz-marcdump -lpos=value which allows setting a portion
1685 of MARC header to a certain value.
1687 Fixes for MARC generation when encoded as MARC-8 (bug 642, 643).
1689 ZOOM-C reads option extraArgs. If set the value of extraArgs is appended to
1690 SRU URI (POST/GET). Value must be URL encoded, such as x-id-a=v1&x-id-b=v2 .
1692 --- 2.1.26 2006/08/15
1694 Fixed problem with SRU mode type (soap, get, post) for yaz-client
1697 Fixed problem another problem with ZOOM_EVENT_RECV_RECORD . Bug #626.
1699 --- 2.1.24 2006/08/08
1701 Fixed MARC ISO2709 encoding routines to deal with character set
1704 Minor changes to GFS logging. Database included in search request log
1707 Fixes for ZOOM-C: event ZOOM_EVENT_RECV_RECORD was not generated for
1708 cached/multiple records.
1710 Shared libraries are built by default on Unix+configure.
1712 Changed cql2pqf transformation to use a different evaluation order. The
1713 new order is: always, relation, structure, position, truncation, index
1714 and relationModifier. Old order was: always, relation, relationModifier,
1715 structure, index, position, truncation. Note that the the latter ones
1716 override former ones for identical attributes.. The new scheme means that
1717 it is possible to override any existing attribute with a relationModifier.
1718 And also that it is possible to override everything for the index rule
1719 (except the ones listed in relationModifier). No order is perfect but this
1720 one, we believe, covers more real cases.. The "always" should have been
1721 called "default", since the attributes there can be overridden with all
1724 For Libxml2 and friends, YAZ defines YAZ_HAVE_{XML2,XSLT,EXSLT) in the
1725 compilation phase, but also for yaz-config --cflags output. This allows
1726 us to have public headers with Libxml2 stuff in them . It should also,
1727 eventually, make Libxml2 checks redundant in packages using YAZ, such
1730 --- 2.1.22 2006/06/15
1732 Changed SRU update structure bend_update_rr so that SRU diagnostics are
1733 stored in uri, message and details.. Previously diagnostics were stored
1734 in errcode, errstring. Patch by Ko van der Sloot. Breaks binary
1735 compatibility.. but he's probably the only one affected, so.
1737 Added support for CCL, compiled on the client side, in ZOOM-C. This
1738 is invoked using ZOOM_query_ccl2rpn() with the CCL configuration as
1739 input; the resulting query objects can be used for for searching with
1740 ZOOM_connection_search() and scanning with ZOOM_connection_scan1().
1742 YAZ' configure searches for OpenSSL by default.
1744 SSL comstack uses SL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file rather than
1745 SL_CTX_use_certificate_file. See
1746 http://lists.indexdata.dk/pipermail/yazlist/2006-June/001615.html
1747 for more info. Thanks to Ko van der Sloot.
1749 --- 2.1.20 2006/06/02
1751 Bug #600: SRU GET, POST support for yaz-client. Introduced
1752 command 'sru' which selects method SOAP/GET/POST.
1754 Allow missingValueAction to be specified for the sortspec string -
1755 function yaz_sort_spec. By default, the missing value action is null.
1756 Use ! to specify "abort". Use = followed by stringvalue to specify default
1759 Ensured that Present-handler (if defined) is called in GFS before any call to
1760 fetch-hhndler. This now includes piggy-backed presents as well as SRW/U
1761 searchRetrieve requests.
1763 Documentation for YAZ is now based on the Docbook XML/XSLT using
1764 xsltproc + N Walsh's stylesheets. It means that the CVS version of YAZ
1765 is no longer depending on jade/openjade or docbook-to-man scripts.
1766 PDF is no longer part of the distribution - but can optionally be
1767 made using DSSSL/jadetex or FOP.
1769 Added retrieval handling support in Generic Frontend Server to support
1770 conversion between MARC/XML as well as XSLTtransforms. See
1771 etc/yazgfs.xml for an example.
1773 Added Authentication support to Generic Frontend Server in SRU
1774 mode. Authentication using HTTP Basic is supported, as is the use
1775 of 'x-username' and 'x-password' parameters in the request itself.
1777 Added support for a new character set MARC8s identical to MARC8 except
1778 that it converts combined characters to single Unicode characters in the
1779 Latin-1 range (when possible).
1781 --- 2.1.18 2006/04/24
1783 ASN.1 compiler 0.4: generates brief Doxygen file header for
1784 generated .h/.c files.
1786 Utility yaz_iconv now supports conversion to MARC-8.
1788 New facilities for the MARC module. The reading - and writing of
1789 content are separate methods for the yaz_marc_t handle. The following
1790 read functions are available: yaz_marc_read_iso2709 (Reads MARC in
1791 ISO2709 format), yaz_marc_read_xml (reads MARC in MARCXML/MarcXchange
1792 format). Write functions have prefix yaz_marc_write_.. The existing
1793 utilities yaz_marc_decode_wrbuf and yaz_marc_decode_buf are still
1794 available. Removed support for OAI-MARC and simplexml (not the
1795 simplexml from PHP5).
1797 Added a new ZOOM event type ZOOM_EVENT_END which signals no more events
1798 to be returned for this connection.
1800 --- 2.1.16 2006/03/31
1802 Allow multiple languages and charsets to be specified with
1803 yaz-client. Each item must be separated by comma (NO BLANKS). E.g.
1804 negcharset iso-8859-1,utf-8
1806 Translation of proximity nodes from CQL into PQF now works.
1808 Moved to automake 1.8, 1.9.
1810 Added function yaz_log_set_handler which allows a log handler to be
1811 installed. This handler will be called for all log messages. Output
1812 to file is also produced; but that can be disabled by passing NULL
1813 fname to yaz_log_init_file.
1815 Fixed another problem with MARC-8 -> ISO-8859-1 conversions. Bug #537.
1817 For SRW (including GFS), accept application/soap+xml as content-type
1820 For GFS in SRU mode, an empty stylesheet in SRU URL (&stylesheet=&)
1821 produces NO stylesheet reference even if a default stylesheet is specified
1824 --- 2.1.14 2006/03/14
1826 Updated Windows package to include yazd.dll + yazd.lib for the
1827 Development component.
1829 If the environment variable YAZ_LOG is set, then it is used as a
1830 string indicating the default level of logging to use if not
1831 overridden by calls to yaz_log_init() or yaz_log_init_level(). If
1832 it's not defined, then the manifest constant YLOG_DEFAULT_LEVEL is
1833 used as before. So, for example, to omit warnings from YAZ logging,
1834 export YAZ_LOG=-warn
1836 cql_transform() now map structure and other attributes before indexes,
1837 so that index-specific structures and other attributes can override
1838 defaults. So now a combination of mapping specifications such as:
1840 index.dc.date = 1=date-modified 4=5
1841 does the right thing.
1843 cql_transform() now also respects the "always" mapping specification,
1844 which establishes an initial set of attributes to be used for all
1845 terms except where overridden by more specific attributes associated
1846 with the index, relation or modifier.
1848 Added SRU-GET and SRU-POST support for ZOOM C. Option "sru" specifies
1849 which mode to use; one of "post", "get" or "soap" (SRW, default).
1851 Fixes for yaz_iconv routines: changed trie-based character set conversions
1852 to use only non-negative values for bit fields due to Sun's C compiler not
1853 supporting negative values.
1855 Fixed bug in character set conversion yaz_iconv. Some three byte UTF-8
1856 sequences where not read correctly. Fix by Rustam Usmanov.
1858 Updated win/makefile to use options, settings which makes things
1859 compile with VS C 2005.
1861 --- 2.1.12 2006/02/01
1863 Fixed bug in yaz_oi_update which used incorrect value for categoryValue.
1865 In ZOOM socket code, use select instead of poll on MacOSX.
1867 ZOOM-C now support client-side compilation of CQL into RPN that is
1868 sent to the server, enabling CQL to be used against all Z39.50
1869 servers. Use ZOOM_query_cql2rpn() to set the compiled CQL into a
1870 ZOOM_query object, and submit it using ZOOM_connection_search().
1871 The CQL-to-RPN translation uses a configuration file, the name of
1872 which must be specified in the Connection's "cqlfile" option.
1874 ZOOM-C also support CQL scanning, via the new ZOOM_connection_scan1()
1875 function, which takes as its start-term parameter a ZOOM_query object
1876 (which may have had either CQL or RPN set into it).
1879 --- 2.1.10 2005/11/29
1881 Added ZiNG Update Support. New codecs are defined in srw.h. Extended the
1882 GFS to support this as well. Backend handler, bend_srw_update, does the
1883 update work. Code contributed by Ko van der Sloot.
1885 Allow retrieval of Search Result-1 information in ZOOM by the use of
1886 options that are attached to a result set. ZOOM documentation updated
1889 Fixed bug #416: First/second comb characters not handled in the MARC-8 to
1890 UTF-8 conversion. Patch by Raj Patel.
1892 Added option -m to GFS to control formatting of timestamps in log file.
1894 Added 'exit' as synonym for 'quit' in yaz-client
1896 Added support for specifying SRW resultSetId + resultSetIdleTime in a
1897 Generic Frontend Server's search handler. Refer to include/yaz/backend.h
1898 for the new members. Patch by Ko van der Sloot.
1900 Added support for SRU POST. It is supported for content-type
1901 application/x-www-form-urlencoded only. Patch by Ko van der Sloot.
1903 Do not build the separate Multi-threaded (MT) library libyazthread.la.
1904 Instead make the library libyaz.la multi-threaded. Threading as a whole
1905 can still be disabled by configure option --disable-threads. Previosly,
1906 with older GLIBCs there were problems with MT libs under Apache. This
1907 has now been fixed a long time ago.
1909 Fixed bugs in yaz_log that occurred on Sparc Solaris in Multi-threaded
1912 CQL module modified to be case insensitive for relations/indexes/operations.
1914 Fixed bug in CQL transform code: incorrect value relationModifieder
1917 Added 'show all' command for yaz-client which retrieves all results
1920 Added new yaz-client, xmles, which takes a (private) OID and
1921 a document to be sent as an extended service request.
1923 Describe new yaz-client commands wait_response and set_auto_wait.
1925 Increase TCP/IP listener backlog from 3 (which I am guessing was
1926 copied from the SunOS manual entry way back when) so SOMAXCONN, so
1927 that the socket will queue as many incoming connections as it's able
1928 to handle ongoing connections. In other words, it will never now
1929 refuse a connection that it would be able to handle merely because
1930 it's not got around to accepting() enough of the pending connections
1931 yet. This is the behaviour anyway under Linux, where the listen()
1932 argument is ignored; but not under BSD and on systems such as
1933 MS-Windows that use BSD-derived TCP/IP stacks. The behaviour of
1934 YAZ-based servers should now be uniform across operating systems in
1937 yaz-marcdump uses 64-bit file access on some systems. This is enabled
1938 on Linux and other Unix variants where _FILE_OFSET_BITS=64 is supported.
1939 This allows yaz-marcdump to read large MARC batches (>2 GB).
1941 Modified all YAZ source files - except the source which is auto-generated
1942 by tools - to use spaces rather than TABS. Emacs/VIM trailer added to
1945 Add ZOOM_connection_option_getl() and ZOOM_options_getl(),
1946 corresponding to the existing *_setl() function. These allow option
1947 values containing arbitrary valuues.
1949 Add ZOOM_resultset_sort1(), which should ALWAYS be used in place of
1950 ZOOM_resultset_sort() in new applications. Its behaviour is identical
1951 except that it returns an indicator of whether or not the sort
1952 criterion was accepted (0 for OK, -1 for invalid).
1954 --- 2.1.8 2005/06/07
1956 Fixed bug in yaz_marc_decode_buf. By mistake the routine appended
1957 MARC output rather than returning "new" buffer.
1959 yaz-client warns about unknown init options.
1961 Fixed bug #371: "options concurrentOperations ignores concurrentOperations"
1963 --- 2.1.6 2005/05/24
1965 Added support for SRW sort in Generic Frontend Server. Patch
1966 by Ko van der Sloot. Member srw_sortKeys in bend_search_rr holds
1967 sortKeys - or NULL if none is provided.
1969 Fixed bug #307: It was impossible to specify indefinite/no timeout
1970 for ZOOM_event. Special timeout value -1 now means indefinite timeout
1973 Added support for multiple languages and charsets to be specified in
1974 ZOOM. Each charset/language is separated by a blank. If negotiation is
1975 in effect in init-response, Option
1976 "negotiation-charset-in-effect-for-records" set to 1(true) or 0(false).
1977 Code based on patch by Vasiliy Osadchuk.
1979 Fixed bug #306: infinite recursion that occurred when calling
1980 yaz_log_level_init as the first call (before other log level or
1983 Fixed bug in scan handling in front end server: if preferred-Position-In-
1984 Response was non-present, a NULL pointer referece was performed.
1986 --- 2.1.4 2005/04/26
1988 Changed include/yaz/diagbib1.h and added include/yaz/diagsrw.h with
1989 diagnostic messages+codes for Bib-1 and SRW. Preprocessor defines are
1990 now defined for all those error codes. So instead of putting 109 in
1991 your program you'd use YAZ_BIB1_DATABASE_UNAVAILABLE. The messages
1992 are generated from a .csv - file. See src/bib1.csv and srw/srw.csv.
1994 Modified the yaz-marcdump utility to skip garbage bytes between MARC
1997 Fixed bug - uninitialized memory - due to bad code for fix of bug #272.
1999 Program yaz-client now exits and produces an error message if multiple
2000 Z39.50 servers are specified on the command line (none or one allowed
2003 Program yaz-marcdump skips garbage bytes between ISO2709 records rather
2006 --- 2.1.2 2005/03/16
2008 Fixed bug #273: Update for recent MARC-8 -> UNICODE changes.
2010 Fixed bug #272: Preserve spacing for CCL terms.
2012 --- 2.1.0 2005/03/14
2014 Added support for virtual hosts and multiple backend servers for
2015 the YAZ frontend server. The configution is XML based and
2016 support specificition of CQL to RPN mappings and explain information.
2017 See section "Virtual Hosts" in the YAZ manual.
2019 Extended OPAC display utility. OPAC display utility renders
2020 bibliographic (MARC) record as well. Added yaz_opac_decode_wrbuf
2021 to supplement yaz_marc_decode_wrbuf.
2023 Fixed a bug in MARC decoder that could caused it to crash for some
2024 invalid MARC records. More diagnostics and warnings where added in
2025 XML output (warnings, etc are stored in comments).
2027 --- 2.0.34 2005/02/08
2029 Fixes for UNIX domain sockets. Bug #261.
2031 Fixes for MARC-8 to UTF-8 conversion. Bugs #258 and #260.
2033 Fixed bug #263: YAZ MARCXML dump shows extra spaces after control fields.
2034 Added yaz_marc_subfield_str which defines subfield lead string which is
2035 used in YAZ_MARC_LINE format. Default string is blank+$. Added
2036 yaz_marc_endline_str which defines end of fields string used in
2037 YAZ_MARC_LINE format. Default string is newline.
2039 Experimental support for MarcXChange. This format can be produced
2040 by yaz-marcdump and is implemented in yaz_marc_decode - functions.
2041 http://www.bs.dk/standards/MarcXchange.xsd
2043 Added yaz-client commands scansize that sets maximum number of
2044 entries to be returned by scan.
2046 --- 2.0.32 2005/01/11
2048 Added support for SRW scan in yaz-client and Generic Frontend Server.
2050 * Added whereInList member to SRW Scan Term.
2052 * Changed Z_SRW_scanRequest to be able to carry both CCL and PQF.
2054 Fixed NMEM system to return aligned blocks on the smallest boundaries
2055 that are suitably aligned for all possible types on the particular
2056 architecture YAZ is being built for.
2058 --- 2.0.30 2005/01/04
2060 Fixed numerious warnings that was issued with newer versions of GCC.
2062 Fixed NMEM system to return aligned blocks on 8 byte boundaries rather
2063 than 4 bytes, since 4 may not be enough on some systems such as GCC 3.4.3
2066 Make YAZ Generic Frontend Server slightly faster.
2068 Enhance (and reduce) logging for Generic Frontend Server.
2070 Revert YAZ log system so that it flushes every write operation
2071 by default. (YAZ 2.0.26 and earlier verisons did that). Bug #240.
2073 Modified the YAZ logging system. The LOG level defines use YLOG_ prefix
2074 instead of LOG_, due to name clash with syslog(3). LOG_ are still
2075 present. New applications should define YAZ_USE_NEW_LOG=1 - this
2076 will effectively disable old definitions.
2078 --- 2.0.28 2004/11/09
2080 Added yaz_log_time_format which specifies log format using
2083 Added yaz_log_module_level which returns mask for a module. Value
2084 is non-zero mask a if module is enabled; zero if disabled.
2086 * Fixed bug #148: CQL parser may leak. A few prototypes were changed
2087 in include/yaz/cql.h.
2089 Fixed bug #176: Dont throw diagnostics on empty SRU args.
2091 Fixed bug #175: surrogate diagnostics in SRW lacking NS.
2093 Fixed bug #172: RPM builds does not enable SSL.
2095 Doxyfile.in part of dist. Doxyfile generated by configure.
2097 Configure aborts if any of --with-xml2, --with-openssl, --enable-tcpd
2098 are given and the corresponding component does not exist.
2100 Extend CCL documentation in YAZ reference. Describe r=r.
2102 --- 2.0.26 2004/10/01
2104 Fixed MARC->MARCXML conversion to properly deal with
2105 fields, subfields, indicators having non-ASCII characters.
2107 Fixed MARC->MARCXML conversion so that ASCII control characters
2108 except TAB,CR,LF are removed from resulting XML (XML 1.0 does not
2111 Added YAZ GFS support for conversion from Z39.50 surrogate
2112 diagnostics to SRW surrogate diagnostics.
2114 Bug fix: YAZ GFS did not return schema in explainResponse.
2116 --- 2.0.25 2004/09/30
2118 The YAZ GFS when converting SRW/SRU requests to Z39.50 structures
2119 now converts recordSchema to elementSetName as well as schema URI.
2121 Fixed bug in COMSTACK that prevented HTTP request packages from being
2124 --- 2.0.24 2004/09/29
2126 Added CCL facility r=r "range" which is similar to r=o "ordered" but
2127 does not require white-space before and after the dash in a range, e.g.
2128 x=-1990 is equivalent to x <= 1990 iff r=r, but equivalent to x= -1980
2131 Fixed a few AC_TRY_LINK configure tests that did not operate properly
2132 due to new GCC removing "redundant" code.
2134 Added yaz-client commands scanpos and scanstep that sets preferred
2135 position and step-size for scan.
2137 Macro YAZ_INIT in yaz.m4: option --with-yazconfig renamed to --with-yaz.
2139 Added CCL utility ccl_qual_buf which parses one or more CCL
2140 spec lines in a buffer.
2142 Added CCL utility ccl_qual_line which adds CCL qualifier line consisting
2143 of name and value - ignoring empty lines and comments.
2145 On Windows, the debug DLL/import lib is now named yazd.{dll,lib}.
2147 Added odr_get_element_path which returns current element path for an
2148 ODR handle. This utility is useful in error handling or user-defined
2151 Added ODR_PRINT utility odr_set_stream which is is a more generic
2152 alternative to odr_setprint. odr_set_stream takes a stream handle, pointer
2153 to a write function and pointer to close function. The close function - if
2154 non-NULL - will be called during odr_destroy.
2156 Fixed bug in CCL parser where truncation char was not removed from
2157 right side when truncation=both was in effect.
2159 Fixed CQL parser to use unsigned chars for isxxx from ctype.h due
2162 --- 2.0.23 2004/08/11
2164 Fix buffer overrun in CQL parser when dealing with proximity (%).
2166 Fixes for MARC-8 in yaz_iconv character set utilies. The MARC-8
2167 to UTF-8/UCS conversion is now only based on codetables.xml.
2169 yaz_marc_decode_buf sets leader pos 9 to "a" for MARCXML output.
2171 --- 2.0.22 2004/08/06
2173 Add support for more "commit changes" in ZOOM (uses Extended Services).
2175 For yaz-client, command set_marcdump <file> / -m <file> dumps SUTRS/XML/..
2178 Yet another small fix for configure of SSL.
2180 --- 2.0.21 2004/05/14
2182 Fix SSL libs for configure when --with-openssl=DIR is given.
2184 --- 2.0.20 2004/05/10
2186 Add autoconf m4 macro YAZ_DOC for YAZ documentation setup (docbook).
2188 SSL comstack now uses yaz.pem certificate file on server side
2189 by default. Certificate filename can be configured by calling
2190 comstack function cs_set_ssl_certificate_file before cs_bind is used.
2192 Fix bug regarding multiple calls to ZOOM_connection_connect.
2194 Implement cs_set_ssl_ctx which sets SSL_CTX for SSL comstack.
2196 Do not create SSL_CTX in cs_create (ssl_type). Create in tcpip_bind,
2197 tcpip_rcvconnect instead. This allows user to set custom SSL_CTX.
2199 ZOOM now allows inspection of X509 peer certificate for verification.
2200 The X509 buffer is retrived by reading ZOOM option "sslPeerCert".
2202 Removed libyazssl.la. When SSL is enabled, libyaz.la has SSL support and
2203 all programs have too (yaz-ztest, yaz-client, zoom..). May not be
2204 as "modular" but it simplifies things.
2206 Added cs_get_peer_certificate to that returns peer X509 PEM.
2208 Added cs_get_ssl that returns SSL handle (SSL *) for SSL comstack; returns
2209 NULL if SSL is unavailable.
2211 Documentation about MARC decoding tools.
2213 Fix --disable-tcpd to really disable tcpd. Patch by Robin H. Johnson.
2215 --- 2.0.19 2004/03/30
2217 Rename CHANGELOG to NEWS to follow GNU style packing.
2219 Fix bug with missing initialization of member in init_diagnostics.
2220 This bug affects threaded version of GFS server.
2222 --- 2.0.18 2004/03/20
2224 Use wrbuf_xmlputs_n instead of wrbuf_write_cdata to avoid clash with
2227 Ensure zlib.dll is packed with Windows install.
2229 --- 2.0.17 2004/03/17
2231 Fix encoding of xsd:string to use text instead of CDATA.
2233 Fix endless loop in CQL parser with unbalanced ".
2235 Use a more compact way to store MARC-8 conversion tables.
2237 --- 2.0.16 2004/03/16 Debian only
2239 Oleg Kolobov Fixed a bug in yaz_iconv regarding conversion to
2242 Update CQL parser to use new CQL 1.1 modifiers for booleans and
2247 --- 2.0.15 2004/03/01
2249 Another fix for decoding of XML packed records.
2251 --- 2.0.14 2004/02/25
2253 Fixes for Chunked encoding. White space not ignored after length spec.
2255 Update NS and use default NS for SRW diagnostic elements.
2257 --- 2.0.13 2004/02/23
2259 Implement ZOOM_resultset_cache_reset which resets record cache.
2261 Implement ZOOM_resultset_sort which sorts a result set.
2263 Implement chunked HTTP transfer.
2265 For SSL, use -lssl -lcrypto on systems that don't have pkg-config.
2267 --- 2.0.12 2004/02/16
2269 Added member 'schema' to bend_explain_rr structure so that backend
2270 can specify explain record identifier. Defaults to Zeerex 2.0.
2272 Fix encoding of OID's of form 1.0.X. Bug introduced in 2.0.11.
2274 --- 2.0.11 2004/02/16
2276 * SRW/SRU 1.1 updates: updated diagnostic in srw.h to use uri instead
2279 Added init command for yaz-client which sends "extra" init request.
2281 Fixed two bugs in OID codec - ber_oidc. Throw error when encoding/decoding
2282 bad truncated OID. Fix decoding of OID X.Y... when X=2 and Y>39.
2284 Fixed a bug in ASN.1 compiler that caused Type-1 Operator codec to fail.
2286 Make ZOOM error code for "invalid query".
2288 Fixed compilation for SSL which wasn't properly enabled for all platforms.
2290 --- 2.0.10 2004/02/05
2292 For yaz.m4, allow second argument for YAZ_INIT to hold minimal version of
2295 * SRW/SRU 1.1 updates. Diagnostic code now a URI.
2297 Added option -p <file> to make Generic Frontend Server to write PID file.
2299 Added option -D to put Generic Frontend Server in background on its own.
2301 Make ZOOM C recognize option "password". If unset, "pass" is used
2302 (for backwards compatibility).
2304 Fixed a bug in Generic Frontend Server that could make it crash if a
2305 client sets characterSetNegotation bit, but didn't pass negotiation stuff
2308 New YAZ client command, zversion, that sets Z39.50 version (1,2,3..).
2309 Must be issued before open, in order to be in effect.
2311 --- 2.0.9-6 2004/01/12 Debian/Windows
2313 Make the SRU server more picky WRT unknown params, etc.
2315 Bug fix: ZOOM scan response didn't return displayTerm - when present.
2317 New YAZ client command, options, that sets Z39.50 options.
2319 New utility functions yaz_init_opt_{encode,decode} to encode/decode Z39.50
2320 options from a string of tokens (one token for each option bit).
2322 Update SRW diagnostic code messages.
2324 --- 2.0.9-5 2004/01/07 Debian/Windows
2326 Handle user defined stylesheet for SRW/SRU.
2328 --- 2.0.9-4 2004/01/06 Debian/Windows
2330 Fix bug in decoding of Content-Length.
2332 --- 2.0.9-3 2004/01/06 Debian/Windows
2334 Fix a bug with decoding of XML packed records.
2336 --- 2.0.9-2 2004/01/05 Debian only
2338 Allow empty ODR (NMEM=0) for odr_oiddup and odr_getoidbystr.
2340 Fix bug in SRW/SRU diagnostics decoding.
2342 --- 2.0.9 2004/01/05
2344 Fixed bug in Generic Frontend Server which could drop records exceeding
2345 preferred message size. Reported and fixed by Irina Dijour.
2347 Fixed calculation of package size for structured records in Generic
2348 Frontend Server. Reported and fixed by Irina Dijour.
2350 Fixed namespace for SRW/SRU diagnostics.
2352 Fixed SEGV in yaz-client that occured for HTTP connection errors.
2354 --- 2.0.8 2003/12/22
2356 * SRW/SRU 1.1. Since the Namespace has changed for SRW/SRU, it means that
2357 this version is incompatible with version 1.0 and older YAZ SRW/SRU
2360 CQL changes to reflect recent changes to the specification:
2361 * Documentation talks about context sets instead of index sets.
2362 * Documentation talks about indexes instead of qualifiers.
2363 * The CQL-to-PQF transformer's configuration file now uses
2364 "index.set.name = <attributes>" instead of the old form
2365 "qualifier.set.name = <attributes>". (Both forms are still
2366 understood but the latter is deprecated.)
2367 * CQL terms with no explicit index specified are now interpreted as
2368 cql.serverChoice instead of srw.serverChoice (which of course
2369 behaves exactly the same.)
2371 --- 2.0.7 2003/12/16
2373 MARC conversion can now generate ISO2709 output in another
2374 character set. yaz-marcdump uses this facility if you invoke it
2377 Added missing C decl macros for include/yaz/{soap.h,srw.h,cql.h}, so that
2378 functions from there can be used from C++.
2380 --- 2.0.6 2003/12/04
2382 Frontend server now transfers memory from decoded packages to stream
2385 NMEM now clears freed blocks with 'Y' (hex 59) to force bad memory
2386 references to show up.
2388 ZOOM-C now supports standard ZOOM option names as described in v1.4 of
2389 the ZOOM Abstract API. The older names for the same options are still
2390 also supported for the benefit of old applications.
2392 ZOOM-C supports "implementationId" and "implementationVersion" options
2393 to go along with "implementationName". These allow the user code to
2394 specify identification strings to be sent to servers.
2395 Add OID for the new ExtLite attribute set.
2397 Add OIDs for NACSIS-CATP, FINMARC2000 and MARC21-fin record-syntaxes,
2398 as requested/supplid by Ere Maijala <ere@atp.fi>
2400 For generic frontend server, reverse the order of
2401 "toolkit-supplied / application-supplied" strings sent as implementationId,
2402 Name and Version. Also, remove the spaces around the slash. This brings
2403 the GFS in line with the behaviour of ZOOM-C on the client side.
2405 Add function ZOOM_scanset_display_term.
2407 yaz-client shows scan displayTerm if present.
2409 Utility yaz-iconv is now installed by default along with the man page
2412 Extend configure check for OpenSSL to use pkg-config where available (such
2415 Incorporate patch by Morten Bogeskov which allows a Unix file socket
2416 server to specify uid/gid/mask for socket using the format
2417 unix:[user=uid,][group=gid,][umask=mask,]file=path
2418 If file= is omitted the existing format is assumed, e.g.
2420 in which case the mask is 0666 (rw for everybody).
2422 Major restructure of YAZ source. All source in libyaz is in src directory.
2423 Programs in client (yaz-client), ztest (yaz-ztest), zoom (zoom programs),
2424 util (utility programs such as ASN.1 compiler, yaz-marcdump).
2426 Added man page for utility yaz-marcdump (used to be called marcdump).
2427 yaz-marcdump is installed by 'make install'.
2429 Fixed a memory leak in Generic Frontend Server that occurred when decoding
2430 of incoming package failed.
2432 Fixed a potential DOS attack vulnerability in COMSTACK/ODR.
2434 Change prototype of odr_perror: add const to message string.
2436 New function yaz_log_reopen which reopens log file (for log rotate, etc.)
2438 * Blocking parameter for COMSTACK cs_create is now a bit mask rather
2439 than a blocking flag. Bit 0 is set for blocking, reset for non-blocking.
2440 Bit 1 is set if cs_addrstr should avoid DNS lookup; reset for full
2441 DNS lookup. There should not be any compatibility problems with this
2442 assuming that blocking=1 or 0 is used.
2444 Fix bad reference in UNIX comstack in function cs_addrstr.
2446 Fix for compilation on AIX.
2448 The generic front-end server (server/seshigh.c) now supports returning
2449 Init diagnostics to the client in User-information-field, in
2450 accordance with Z35.90 Implementor Agreement 5 (Returning diagnostics
2453 --- 2.0.4 2003/09/04
2455 Allow any CQL relation (not just all,any,exact,scr).
2457 Fixes for OCLC UI ASN.1 to make it work with SilverPlatter targets
2458 that features the same UI.
2460 Implemented command update0 in YAZ client which is equivalent to
2461 update but uses old of Ext Update ASN.1.
2463 Use OID 1.2.840.10003.15.1000.81.1 for privately defined charsets
2464 in charset negotiation. Added VAL_ID_CHARSET in oid.h.
2465 Previously no OID was used for this info.
2467 ZOOM uses smallSetUpperBound=1 instead of 0 for piggyback searches.
2468 It apparantely upsets EBSCO Publishing IR Z39.50 Server which
2469 returns 'malformed search term' otherwise.
2471 SortResponse member resultCount now set to NULL in sort handler of
2474 OPAC support ZOOM. ZOOM_record_get returns OPAC info (as XML) if
2477 Add three new utility functions for translating OIDs between various
2478 formats -- symbolic name such as "Usmarc", minus-1-terminated int
2479 arrays and dotted strings such as "1.2.840.10003.9.5.1":
2480 int *oid_name_to_oid(oid_class oclass, const char *name, int *oid);
2481 char *oid_to_dotstring(const int *oid, char *oidbuf);
2482 char *oid_name_to_dotstring(oid_class oclass, const char *name, char *oidbuf);
2484 Reverted modifications for ES Update definition for z_IU0Update
2485 (OID 1.2.840.10003.9.5.1 and 1.2.840.10003.9.5). The definition
2486 is back to YAZ 2.0.2.
2488 String value attributes for CCL parser.
2490 Support for OCLC's locally registered "OCLC-UserInformation" PDU,
2491 which their FirstSearch server returns in Init responses, sometimes
2492 carrying useful diagnostic information when Init fails. This has the
2493 OID 1.2.840.10003.10.1000.17.1 and is defined in the file
2494 "z39.50/oclcui.asn", where its definition is somewhat different from
2495 what OCLC document on their web-site, as required to interoperate with
2498 Support for anonymous authentication in yaz-client. Use the command
2501 * Fix the OID of the Index Data-local "admin" Extended Service from
2502 1.2.840.10003.9.81.1 to 1.2.840.10003.9.1000.81.1. The omission of
2503 the 1000, which indicates a locally-defined OID, was a mistake.
2505 --- 2.0.3 2003/06/20
2507 Fix CCL directive @case handling so that it affects string match for
2508 both CCL keywords and qualifiers.
2510 * ESFormat-Update updates. Packages with OID 1.2.840.10003.9.5.1 and
2511 1.2.840.10003.9.5 are now handled by the same decoder z_IU0Update .
2512 Decoder has been updated with ASN.1 changes as listed in
2513 http://lcweb.loc.gov/z3950/agency/defns/updateES.html
2514 Note that the "latest" DB Update, OID 1.2.840.10003.9.5.1.1 , handler
2515 z_IUUpdate, remains unchanged.
2517 ZOOM_record_get may now return a record in a specific character set.
2518 For type use "form; charset=from[,to]" where form (render, xml, ..) ,
2519 "from" is the character set of record as returned by target. "to" is
2520 the character set to be returned. If omitted, "to" is UTF-8.
2522 YAZ ASN.1 compiler renamed from yaz-comp to yaz-asncomp
2524 New ODR utility, odr_getelement, which returns name of element for
2525 which encoding/decoding failed.
2527 Fixed ODR so that it returns error code OREQUIRED rather than ONONE
2528 in cases where a required element was omitted.
2530 Bug fix: some MARC8 sequences were not converted.
2532 New ZOOM option "step" which specifies number of records to be
2533 retrieved in one chunk. Used in conjunction with "start" and "count".
2535 SRW support for yaz-client. Use scheme http: to use it, e.g.
2538 yaz-client no longer does (un)intelligent character set conversions
2539 by default. Can be enabled with charset and marc_charset commands.
2541 xmalloc trace fix for 64-bit systems such as DEC alpha.
2543 Solaris 2.6 compile fix.
2545 New function, cql_strerror() translates SRW error codes, as returned
2546 by cql_transform_error(), into human-readable English strings. Used
2547 in yaz-client diagnostics when appropriate.
2549 New CQL2RPN query-type for the command-line yaz-client, parses CQL and
2550 converts it into a type-1 query which is sent to the server. This
2551 makes CQL available for use with all Z-servers, as opposed to the tiny
2552 minority that can handle CQL queries themselves.
2554 --- 2.0.2 2003/04/28
2556 New Debian package layout similar to the Redhat Package layout.
2558 New ZOOM events ZOOM_EVENT_RECV_{RECORD,SEARCH} for receiving a record
2559 and search result respectively.
2561 --- 2.0.1 2003/04/25
2563 Redhat package is now several packages: libyaz (runtime libraries),
2564 libyaz-devel (development and documentation, and yaz (utility programs).
2565 Package spec file by Morten Bogeskov.
2567 New member 'schema' in struct bend_fetch_rr which the name of requested
2568 schema (SRW/SRU) for record (or NULL if none was given). The fetch
2569 handler MAY set this to reflect the schema of the returned record.
2571 New member 'display_term' in struct scan_entry. GFS now sets member entries
2572 and allocates scan entries to be filled by user scan handler. In previous
2573 version, entries member was allocated by the scan handler. That still works,
2574 but the GFS will ignore member display_term - assuming it was NOT set by
2575 the handler. The fact that the GFS now allocates the entries both allows
2576 for new members and makes a scan handler easier to write.
2578 Fix CQL lex buffer overflow.
2580 SRW/SRU recordPacking. For SRW default recordPacking is string. For
2581 SRU default recordPacking is string.
2583 SRU protocol support for frontend server.
2585 Fix compile bug for systems that have nl_langinfo but CODESET undefined.
2587 Added missing PQF transform rules for <= and >= . Thanks to Peter Popovics.
2589 Added scan for the ZOOM shell (zoomsh).
2593 * String Identifers for Schemas (Amendment 5).
2594 http://lcweb.loc.gov/z3950/agency/amend/am5.html
2595 Old definition for schema
2596 Odr_oid *schema; /* OPT */
2601 Z_InternationalString *uri;
2602 #define Z_Schema_oid 1
2603 #define Z_Schema_uri 2
2606 * resultCount parameter to Sort Response (Amendment 1).
2607 http://lcweb.loc.gov/z3950/agency/amend/am1.html
2609 Support for SRW 1.0 over HTTP. This is an optional feature and
2610 requires libxml2 to operate. Enable SOAP by specifying --with-xml2
2613 Generic frontend server supports HTTP/SOAP/SRW and Z39.50/BER
2614 on the same port. SRW SearchRetrieveRequests are mapped
2615 to bend_init,bend_search,bend_fetch,bend_close.
2617 Z39.50 Query Type-104 added - to facilitate CQL within Z39.50.
2619 CQL support. Source is directory 'cql'. CQL is supported in ZOOM
2620 (both SRW and Z39.50) and the YAZ client (Z39.50 only).
2622 ZOOM connections are SRW based if schem http is used for hostname
2623 in connect, e.g. z = ZOOM_connection_new("http://myserver");
2624 ZOOM_query may be of type CQL, e.g. ZOOM_query_cql(q, "dc.title=x");
2626 CCL proximity operators !n, %n converts to PQF @prox 0 n 1 2 k 2
2627 and @prox 0 n 0 1 k 2 respectively, meaning: exlusion=false,
2628 distance=n, order=true/false, relation=le, prox unit=word. If
2629 n is omitted, distance 1 is used.
2631 Fixed problem with C compiler include path in wrong order.
2633 For TCP/IP COMSTACK, set recv buffer to an appropriate "large" value
2634 on Solaris. Patch from Ko van der Sloot.
2636 New MARC decode API. All new functions operate on a yaz_marc_t
2637 handle. The most important new functions are: yaz_marc_create,
2638 yaz_marc_decode_{buf,wrbuf}, yaz_marc_destroy, .. to create handler,
2639 decode and destroy respectively. Decoder can produce formats
2640 MARC line, simple XML, OAI MARC and MARC XML (LoC). See
2641 include/yaz/marcdisp.h.
2643 YAZ Iconv utility now supports MARC8 decoding (marc8.c). Converts
2644 to UTF-8, UCS-32, wchar_t or Latin-1.
2646 * Prototypes for yaz_iconv_-functions moved to separate header
2647 include/yaz/yaz-iconv.h.
2649 Make a few private functions 'static' in unix.c. This prevents
2650 duplicate unix_close in PHP with YAZ and imap. PHP Bug 20977.
2652 For ZOOM connection, the options targetImplementation{Id,Name,Version}
2653 are set when Init Response is received.
2655 New function ZOOM_connection_error_x similar to ZOOM_connection_error
2656 but returns diagnostic set as well.
2658 New function yaz_strerror which is a portable wrapper for
2659 strerror/strerror_r/GetLastMessage.
2661 * ZOOM_record_get supports type "xml" in which case MARC XML (from LOC)
2662 is returned for MARC. If type is "oai", then OAI MARC is returned.
2664 Fix creation of lib/yaz-config so it works if srcdir != objdir. Patch
2667 --- 1.9.2 2002/11/26
2669 yaz_marc_decode uses OAI MARC as XML format for ISO2709 records.
2671 Fix bad race conditions on SIGTERM and terminate gracefully in
2674 Move retrieval (data1) module to Zebra since nobody seems to be
2677 Add GRS-1 render for ZOOM using same format as yaz-client.
2679 --- 1.9.1 2002/10/05
2681 Added man pages: yaz-client(1), yaz-ztest(8), yaz(7), zoomsh(1).
2683 Fix broken ESpec handling in data1 module.
2685 SGML reader parses comments and makes them part of the data1 tree.
2687 Added several type casts so that YAZ compiles as C++ code.
2689 ZOOM didn't handle PDU encoding failures properly.
2691 Added more Bib-1 diagnostics (approved extensions).
2693 GNU configure: better check for iconv.
2695 More portable use of accept, getpeername. Check for socklen_t. Use
2696 int/size_t if socklen_t is not defined.
2700 PQF parser rejects bad queries - including those with extra
2701 characters in them. PQF parser used to silently ignore that.
2702 Cleaner API for PQF added, which allows you to get detailed
2703 error information for bad queries (see yaz/pquery.h).
2705 Fixed bug in ZOOM_record_get for type "database".
2707 Implemented mini iconv library supporting conversions between
2708 UTF-8, UCS4, UCS4LE and ISO-8859-1. Implemented in util/siconv.c.
2710 * Removed XML reader (d1_expat.c). It's part of Zebra instead.
2712 --- 1.8.9 2002/08/20
2714 Fixed ZOOM C record cache so that preferredRecordSyntax and
2715 elementSetName is used to check for already fetched records.
2717 --- 1.8.8 2002/08/02
2719 Added three members in bend_initrequest structure to facilitate
2720 character set negotiation.
2722 Fixed a bug in frontend server that could cause indefinite
2723 loops under rare conditions.
2725 Revised character set utilities (charneg.h) so that encoding
2726 UCS-4, UCSA-4, UTF-16 and UTF-8 are encoded non-privately.
2728 For PQF, directive @term <type> sets term type for Scan/Search.
2729 Here <type> is general, string, numeric, null. The term type
2730 is inherited - just like @attr.
2732 New call odr_set_charset that sets character set conversion for
2733 international-strings on a ODR stream. Prototype is:
2734 int odr_set_charset(ODR o, const char *to, const char *from);
2735 The InternationalString is still represented as C string in YAZ
2736 so native strings of type UTF-8, ASCII, etc. will work (UTF-16
2737 won't). On the protocol level, you can use any encoding.
2739 Support for UNIX sockets in ZOOM.
2741 Solaris recv sometimes returns errno == ENOENT. It is treated as
2742 EINPROGRESS. COMSTACK patch by Ko van der Sloot.
2744 New COMSTACK of type UNIX Socket. Use "unix:/path" as address for
2745 both client and server. Code by Morten Bogeskov.
2747 --- 1.8.7 2002/05/22
2749 On Windows ZOOM functions are of type __stdcall rather than __cdecl, so
2750 that they can be used directly from Visual Basic. You must recompile
2751 your windows APP if you're using ZOOM.
2753 Character Set and Language Negotiation(3) for ZOOM API and YAZ client.
2754 Commands "lang" and "charset" sets language and character set respectively.
2755 Options "lang" and "charset" is interpreted by the ZOOM API. Note, these
2756 are not part of the official ZOOM spec) All is due to Oleg Kolobov.
2758 Attributes from multiple CCL fields may be OR'ed rather than merged
2759 using directive "@field or". Fields are still merged by default -
2760 equivalent to "@field merge".
2762 Fixed bug in ZOOM connect that occurred on OpenBSD (maybe others). Patch
2765 Fixed bug in zget for parameter ExtendedServicesResponse.
2769 --- 1.8.6 2002/03/25
2771 Added PQF feature: '@attr type=value' may be written as '@type=value'.
2773 Client displays USR.1:SearchResult-1 (hits per term).
2775 Additional Search Info for search in Generic Frontend Server.
2777 Fixed CCL parsing of "field=s".
2779 WIN32 installer - using the excellent NSIS software from nullsoft.
2781 Fixed CCL parsing of "field = - <number>".
2783 Added function yaz_marc_decode that decodes MARC for line mode
2784 display or XML (similar to that used by JZKit).
2786 Fixed BER decoding of OPTIONAL CHOICE. The bug didn't affect the
2787 Z39.50. But ISO/ILL was, however.
2789 Added patch by Rustam T. Usmanov that implements Z39.50 duplicate
2790 detection service (Z39.50-1995 Amendment 2) and Language Negotiation (3).
2792 http://lcweb.loc.gov/z3950/agency/amend/am2.html
2793 http://lcweb.loc.gov/z3950/agency/defns/charneg-3.html
2795 --- 1.8.5 2002/02/03
2797 New YAZ client features: Command completion and new commands:
2798 push_command, set_apdufile, set_marcdump, set_cclfields, register_oid.
2799 Code provided by Jacob Poulsen.
2801 New call oid_trav, that visits all registered OIDs via callback.
2803 Function ZOOM_record_get now returns const char pointer rather than
2804 void pointer. It saves a lot of type casts.
2806 For YAZ client, command "auth" now allows you to set authentication
2807 in IdPass style. It is enabled when three tokens are given - order
2808 is user, group and password.
2810 Fix memory leaks in MARC record handling for ZOOM.
2812 New option for YAZ client, -k <kilobytes> that sets
2813 maximum record size. Similar to -k option for generic frontend
2814 server and yaz-ztest.
2816 More fixes for scan. Non-zero stepSize handled. OID's fixes.
2818 Prefix query parser reports "fail" when bad attribute set is given.
2820 Fix in MARC decoder. Proximity logging. Fix for attribute set
2821 in scan handler for server. Patches by Shigeru Ishida.
2823 SSL/COMSTACK updates. cs_rcvconnect completes SSL handshake. ZOOM
2826 Configure option --with-openssl=<dir> now works when a directory is
2827 specified. Patch provided by Morten Bogeskov.
2829 New option for YAZ client, -u <auth>, that sets authentication.
2831 ZOOM fix: error information was sometimes "missing", since error
2832 was cleared/reset too when it shouldn't.
2834 ZOOM_record_get returns ISO2709 buffer when "raw" is given.
2836 --- 1.8.4 2002/01/04
2838 Scan for ZOOM API. New object ZOOM_scanset. New functions
2839 ZOOM_connection_scan, ZOOM_scanset_size, ZOOM_scanset_term and
2840 ZOOM_scanset_destroy.
2842 New ZOOM function, ZOOM_connection_last_event, that returns type
2843 of last event (such as "receive data", "send data", "apdu received",
2846 New ZOOM option, schema, that specifies schema for retrieval.
2848 New CCL feature. Qualifiers can be aliases for one or more
2849 other qualifiers (if more than one is given, OR is used).
2851 ZOOM uses named result sets if target supports it.
2853 Two new YAZ client commands: . (dot, which sources a script of YAZ
2854 client commands), and ! (to execute shell command.). Implemented
2857 Working on Debian packages.
2859 --- 1.8.3 2001/11/19
2861 YAZ client enables named result sets only if target supports it.
2863 *** ZOOM. Prefix for ZOOM definitions changed from Z3950_ to ZOOM_.
2865 * ZOOM. Removed Z3950_connection_host. Use Z3950_connection_option_get
2866 with key="host" to get same result.
2868 * ZOOM. Added Z3950_record_clone and removed Z3950_resultset_get.
2869 Function Z3950_resultset_record(s) returns references to records
2870 "owned" by resultset. To become owner use Z3950_record_clone.
2872 Function z_ext_record handles Extended Services. Thanks to
2875 --- 1.8.2 2001/11/12
2877 CCL Parser fix: ignore token comma when dealing with and-lists.
2879 Documentation updates for COMSTACK.
2881 * ZOOM changes. Query object renamed from Z3950_search to Z3950_query.
2882 Changed prototype Z3950_records. For some functions, int parameters
2883 were changed to size_t.
2885 TCP/IP COMSTACK no longer uses getprotobyname to avoid memory leak
2888 New MARC decode/display function, marc_display_exl, which properly rejects
2889 non-ISO2709 records. YAZ client uses it.
2891 --- 1.8.1 2001/10/29
2893 Fix bug: local attribute set wasn't set correctly in PQF strings.
2897 * Old Z39.50 codecs no longer supported.
2899 Added ZOOM C binding. See http://zoom.z3950.org/
2901 Renamed states for COMSTACKs to avoid confusion with events.
2903 Implemented cs_look and proper cs_rcvconnect.
2905 Fixed COMSTACK error that occurred on HPUX. Fix by Giannis Kosmas.
2907 Configure detects POSIX threads on OpenBSD.
2909 When sort flag 'i' was specified in yaz-client the caseSensitivy flag
2910 was set to a wrong value. Thanks to Robert Sanderson for reporting this.
2912 When error is returned from present handler, non-surrogate diagnostic
2913 is returned in present response (and fetch handler is no longer called).
2915 * Minor adjustments to pquery parser (PQF). Token characters may be
2916 escaped by using backslash (C-style).
2918 PQF parser allows string attribute values to be specified. For @attr,
2919 non-numeric characters after the equal-sign are treated as strings
2920 (e.g. @attr 9=title).
2922 CCL trunction character may be defined (@truncation in file)
2924 * function zget_ExtendedServicesRequest sets waitAction to
2925 waitIfPossible (was wait).
2927 Added cs_set_blocking to set change blocking mode of a COMSTACK. Thanks
2930 CCL operator names may be set in field definition files (CCL_bibset).
2931 See ccl/bib1 for an example.
2933 Fixes in ASN.1 compiler for C++ compatibility.
2935 * Renamed members "and" and "or" in struct Z_Operator to "op_and"
2936 and "op_or" to avoid conflict with C++.
2938 Fixed problem with GNU readline detection on Redhat 7.0.
2940 Added step-size for Scan backend handler.
2942 Fixed bug that made the frontend server crash when no attribute
2943 set was specified for scan.
2945 Front-end server automatically switches to original working directory
2946 when installed as an NT service. Previously -w had to be specified to
2949 Added extended attributes for retrieval module (data1), so that data1
2950 records carry d1_readXML/SGML attributes. d1_read also supports
2951 null-data rules ( <tag/>)
2953 On UNIX when POSIX threads are available, a separate library libyazthread
2954 is created. Programmers should link with that library and the yaz library
2955 when using threads. The reason for the split was that some applications
2956 on Linux, such as Apache, doesn't work well when using shared objects that
2959 Added SSL support for the COMSTACK. You start yaz-client and yaz-ztest
2960 (or any frontend server) in SSL mode by specifying ssl: followed by
2961 address. Only tested on UNIX.
2963 Added feature for CCL module. Virtual structure s=al or s=ol generates
2964 and-list and or-list respectively instead of phrase search.
2968 * Added prefix "yaz_" for the functions log_init.., log_file.. and
2969 log_mask_str. This was done to avoid name conflicts with other libraries
2970 (such as other PHP extensions).
2972 Added raw OID member for preferred record syntax (request_format_raw)
2973 and returned record syntax (output_format_raw) for backend fetch method.
2975 Config file yaz-config now accepts options so that it returns specific
2976 compile settings, etc. Thanks to Morten Bogeskov <morten@bogeskov.dk>
2978 Shared library support for UNIX using GNU libtool.
2980 * Modified backend interface. Request/Response struct's replaced by
2981 one read/write C struct. For example bend_fetchrequest and
2982 bend_fetchresult have been replaced by single bend_fetch_rr struct.
2983 Every handler - even search has to be registered in bend_init
2984 handler. This means that the YAZ library no longer refers to
2985 external functions and it makes it possible to make the whole
2986 thing a single DLL/SO.
2988 Added Segment handler for backend server.
2990 Added Zmbol/Zebra administrative functions to YAZ client.
2992 Threaded frontend server on UNIX (when POSIX Threads are available).
2993 Starting the server with option -T enables multi-threading.
2997 Added configure option --enable-comp/disable-comp to control use
2998 of YAZ ASN.1 compiler. Use --disable-comp to use the old *coders
2999 located in sub directory asn.
3001 YAZ ASN.1 compiler renamed to yaz-comp in sub directory. It's installed
3002 in ${exec_prefix}/bin along with the other programs yaz-client and
3005 GNU automake used to maintain makefiles.
3007 Added several OID's.
3009 Changed retrieval module so that we can load records with no abstract
3010 syntax defined. Tagpaths in these records are fully composed of string
3013 Implemented ISO ILL protocol. Refer to stuff in sub directory ill.
3017 On UNIX, the generated makefile now supports a proper 'make install'.
3018 The prefix can be set via GNU configure to set the install location
3019 (default is /usr/local).
3021 * YAZ programs client and ztest were renamed to yaz-client and
3022 yaz-ztest to avoid conflicts when users install YAZ in "standard"
3023 locations, such as /usr/bin,/usr/local/bin,etc.
3025 * YAZ Header files were moved from include to include/yaz. YAZ Header
3026 files are referred to as include <yaz/log.h> rather than <log.h>.
3027 The YAZ include path (-I ..) is therefore the same as before. Programmers
3028 should update their #include statements or use -Ipath/include/yaz
3029 instead. The main motivation for doing this change is that YAZ header files
3030 can be installed in "standard" locations /usr/include,/usr/local/include
3031 without introducing conflicts, since ALL YAZ header files are stored
3032 in subdirectory yaz (under /usr/include for example).
3034 Compilation of YAZ for WIN32 is now handled by an nmake-style makefile
3035 rather than project/workspace files. We switched because project files
3036 are incompatible between Visual C++ 5 and 6. Refer to windows.txt for
3039 Changed name of logging function, logf, to yaz_log, to prevent name
3040 clash with some math-log functions. The YAZ header log.h defines logf
3041 to yaz_log (#define) so there should be no incompatibilities by this
3044 Added bend_start/bend_stop handlers for server. These handler are
3045 called on start/stop of server. For windows they are called whenever
3046 a service is started/stopped.
3048 * YAZ now auto-generates decoders/encoders for the Z39.50 protocol using
3049 a fairly small ASN.1 compiler written in Tcl. The compiler is located
3050 in util/yc.tcl. The auto-generated C code structures are, in a few
3051 cases, incompatible with the old decoders. There are differences in the
3052 following C structures Z_DiagRec, Z_External, Z_SortRequest, Z_SortResponse,
3053 Z_AttributesPlusTerm, Z_ProximityOperator, Z_DefaultDiagFormat.
3054 The preprocessor variable ASN_COMPILED is defined when the compiled
3055 ASN.1 is being used. Encoder/decoder routines as well as the Z39.50
3056 protocol ASN.1 is located sub directory <tt>z39.50</tt>. If you
3057 wish to use the old encoders/decoders you can specify --disable-yc
3060 Assigned OID for old DB Update (VAL_DBUPDATE0). Updated YAZ compiled
3061 version so that it supports both new - and old version of DB Update
3063 * Added 'name' parameter to ODR encoder/decoder routines to facilitate
3064 pretty ODR print. Updated whole Z39.50 encoder/decoder to reflect the
3065 change. The name parameter can be set to 0 in which no name is specified
3066 for the construction. The macros odr_implicit and odr_explicit sets name
3067 parameter to zero for the construction involved. New macros
3068 odr_implicit_tag and odr_explicit_tag are similar to the others,
3069 except that a name parameter is added. For programmers' that don't use
3070 ODR they probably only need to change the call to z_APDU and z_External.
3072 Added access control facility by interfacing the TCP wrapper library.
3073 YAZ automatically attempts to find the TCP wrapper Library (-lwrap) and
3074 tcpd.h on Unix systems. For the server, option -d<daemon> specifies the
3075 name of the daemon and enables the access control as specified in
3076 hosts.allow/hosts.deny. Refer to man pages tcpd(8) and hosts_access(5).
3078 Fixed memory leak in ccl_find_str and ccl_qual_rm. Thanks to Hans van
3079 den Dool <H.M.vdnDool@kub.nl>.
3081 Added reference ID parameter to most functions in server API - refer
3082 to backend.h. Thanks to Hans van den Dool <H.M.vdnDool@kub.nl>.
3084 Changed name of ccl library to libccl.a (was ccl.a).
3086 Fixed bug in decoder for Explain (Category TargetInfo).
3088 Added support for GNU readline in client. Thanks to Jacob Poulsen
3089 <ja7@dbc.dk>. GNU configure attempts to detect if readline is available.
3091 * CHANGED DEFINITION OF ES: UPDATE (INCLUDING THE OID) to reflect the
3092 new definition from the ZIG. NOTE THIS IF YOU HAVE AN UPDATE
3093 IMPLEMENTATION! This change was made to the development version before
3094 the ZIG decided to retract the amendment. If any users MUST be
3095 compatible with the original Update definition, PLEASE CONTACT US, and
3096 we will include a separate definition corresponding to the old Update
3097 ES. Note that because of the change to the ASN.1 of the
3098 TaskPackageRecordStructure we cannot define a single structure that
3099 will support both versions.
3101 * Added const modifier to buffer parameter for some ODR/BER encoding
3102 routines: ber_dectag, ber_declen, odp_more_chunks, completeBER,
3103 completeWAIS, odr_dumpBER.
3105 Fixed bug in client.c which caused a crash when a scanResponse didn't
3106 contain positionOfTerm.
3108 * Fixed inconsistency in the ScanResponse/ListEntries protocol. This
3109 * will cause an error in a client if a non-YAZ target sends both a
3110 * list of Scan entries and non-surrogate diagnostics.
3112 Retrieval module enhancements. Tag sets may be typed in the reference
3113 to it. From the .abs-file the "tagset" directive takes a third optional
3114 integer type for the tag set referenced. From a .tag-file the "include"
3115 directive takes a third optional type as well. The old "type" directive
3116 in the tag set itself is still recognized but acts as the default type
3119 Backend interface change. Individual Scan terms returned from bend_scan
3120 may also be tagged as Surrogate Diagnostics. Refer to struct scan_entry
3121 in include/backend.h.
3123 Retrieval module enhancements. Multiple tag sets and attribute sets may
3124 be specified in abstract syntax specs. Revised the error/warning for
3125 logging messages reported by the retrieval module when reading the
3128 Object Identifier system (oid_..) changed. The API is backwards
3129 compatible but the oid-routines now allocates new OID's when needed.
3130 Raw OID's may be specified in oid_getvalbyname.
3132 YAZ now uses GNU configure to generate Makefile(s).
3134 * Minor changes in some of the member names of DeleteResultSetRequest and
3135 DeleteResultSetResponse. See include/proto.h.
3137 * Changed some C definitions regarding EXPLAIN record syntax (prt-exp.h)
3138 and added member 'languages' in TargetInfo (which was missing).
3140 Changed the way attribute sets are handled in the retrieval
3141 module. These are now cached, just like the abstract syntaxes
3144 Changed YAZ so that it links with compiled ASN.1.
3146 Added Explain-schema definitions and mapping routines. The following
3147 Explain categories have been implemented: AttributeDetails,
3148 AttributeSetInfo, DatabaseInfo, CategoryList and TargetInfo.
3150 Fixed minor bug in Windows version of Server Library.
3152 --- 1.4pl2+ 1998/4/17 (Released with Zebra)
3154 Added Extended Services to server (backend.h). Thanks to Charles Woodfield.
3156 Added EXTERNAL: UNIverse Resource Report (non-standard).
3158 Implemened odr_enum and odr_set_of functions to handle ASN.1 types
3159 ENUMERATED and SET OF.
3161 * Added 'const' to some of the char pointer arguments for the
3162 functions, data1_read_node, data1_getelementbytagname,
3163 data1_insert_taggeddata, data1_getesetbyname, data1_getelementbyname,
3166 Fixed bug in data1_insert_taggeddata - the last_child member of
3167 parent wasn't initialised.
3169 * Changed data1_read_record and data1_read_node so that the supplied
3170 "SGML"-buffer is read-only. In particular the resulting data1 - tree
3171 doesn't refer to any parts of the "SGML"-buffer.
3173 Fixed bug in server library (Windows version of statserv_remove).
3175 * Changed code so that it compiles as C++. The type definition
3176 of Odr_fun which is a member of Odr_arm was changed. The result is,
3177 that an explicit typecast is needed for the fun pointer when
3178 using Odr_arm - as in:
3179 {1, -1, -1, Z_IdAuthentication_idPass, (Odr_fun)z_IdPass},
3181 Updated TagSet-G and -M definitions (tagsetm.tag and tagsetg.tag).
3183 Implemented the new structured date and time definition as approved
3184 by the ZIG. Added schemaId element to the specificTag in Espec-1
3185 (also approved at the last ZIG). Thanks to RVDM.
3187 Added some Object identifiers (RVDM).
3189 Changed the Update Extended Service (RVDM).
3191 Added command "refid" to client which specifies referenceId for
3192 the following requests.
3194 Implemented extended service handling for server. See ztest.c
3195 for an example as well as backend.h. New handlers are registerd
3196 in the Init handler.
3198 * Changed interface for sort in server.
3200 Added new members to statserv_options_block. It allows a server
3201 to read options from another source than just the command line. Thanks
3202 to Charles Woodfield.
3204 * Changed definition of Z_Triple in file prt-grs.h - member boolean
3205 renamed to zboolean. Some C++ compilers complained about the name.
3207 Minor changes to gils.abs. Added index 's' (sort) on title
3208 and date/time-last-modified.
3210 --- 1.4pl2 1998/1/30
3212 Fixed bug in server library regarding inetd mode (-i). This bug
3213 was introduced by release 1.4.
3215 --- 1.4pl1 1998/1/29
3217 Added sort facility in client and backend server interface.
3219 Fixed problem with dependencies in Makefile(s).
3221 Fixed bugs for encoders/decoders of extended services and
3224 Implemented sub-tree feature for schemas. Sub-trees are
3225 referenced in *.abs-files. See explain.abs for an example
3226 of the use of this feature.
3228 Modified bib1.att; local attributes for ANY didn't include
3229 ANY itself (only affects use of the retrieval module).
3231 Fixed bug in plain SGML reader in function data1_read_node:
3232 tags with prefix "var" was incorrectly interpreted as variants.
3234 Added feature "sub-schemas" to enable references to - and definitions
3235 of - group of elements.
3237 * Removed member parent from type data1_element (in data1.h).
3239 Implemented function odr_nullval() that returns the value of
3242 * Removed member num_children from data1_node (in data1.h).
3244 Made NT service interface part of the server library. The
3245 function statserv_main uses the NT service when required and
3246 calls the statserv_start / statserv_close routines.
3248 Routine zget_SearchRequest and zget_PresentRequest fills
3249 resultSetName/Id member with "default" instead of "Default".
3251 Fixed memory leak in server. Request queue member wasn't freed.
3253 Fixed nmem_exit so that memory is freed.
3257 Revised the CCL parser utility to be thread safe.
3259 Added function, oid_ent_to_oid, to replace the function
3260 oid_getoidbyent, which is not thread safe.
3262 * Added nmem_init and nmem_exit to initialize and release
3263 NMEM resources. Function nmem_init should be called once in the
3264 initial thread before NMEM/ODR is used. statserv.c and client.c
3265 have been changed accordingly. The change was necessary to make
3266 NMEM thread safe. The NMEM memory pool is shared amongst threads
3267 in a process. Unix-based applications will still work fine without
3270 Added NT Services interface for the the Z39.50 (statserv) Server.
3271 Refer to the ztest.c source on the usage.
3273 Windows 95/NT port using MSVC5.0. Project files are included in the
3276 * Defined new 'global' handle for the retrieval (data1) system. The
3277 new handled, data1_handle, describes the state of the data1 system.
3278 This handle is passed as first argument to virtually all
3279 data1 related routines. The functions data1_create and data1_destroy
3280 creates and destroys a data1 handle respectively.
3282 Added ODR encode stream member to all backend request structures
3283 init, search, scan etc. This stream should be used to allocate all
3284 memory used for the response when thread safe operation is needed.
3286 Changed the comstack utility, cs_addstr, to be thread safe. The
3287 returned hostname string returned by the function is now part the
3290 Added comstack utility, cs_straddr, which replaces the tcpip_strtoaddr
3291 function. The cs_straddr takes a COMSTACK handle as argument, so this
3292 function must be used after cs_create and before bind/connect.
3293 This function is thread safe.
3295 Moved test server to 'ztest' directory - generic server code still
3296 in 'server' directory.
3298 Made prefix query (pquery.c) utility thread safe.
3300 Added new function modifier YAZ_EXPORT to 'export' public DLL
3301 functions when using windows (see include/yconfig.h).
3303 Added definitions to the OID database (util/oid.c) (RVDM).
3305 Added new BIB-1 diagnostic messages to the handler diagbib1_str.
3307 Added call to ccl_rpn_delete in client program.
3309 Added ODR argument to ccl_rpn_query and ccl_scan_query to provide
3310 release of RPN structure.
3312 Added support for C++, headers uses extern "C" for public definitions.
3313 With input from RVDM.
3315 In handling of SEQUENCE OF: Counter set to zero when SEQUENCE OF is absent.
3316 Thanks to Ronald van der Meer (RVDM).
3318 Added initializers (zget_ routines) for a number of PDUs. Thanks to RVDM.
3320 Added support for private extensions to the OID database
3321 (oid_setprivateoids()). Thanks to RVDM.
3323 Added optional, physical ANY (key replication)
3325 Fixed null-reference problem in GRS-1 output filter.
3327 Proximity operator added to Prefix Query Format (PQF).
3329 In test client command "base" accepts multiple databases.
3331 Fixed bug in cs_close stack that caused trouble with WINSOCK.
3335 Fixed tagging bug in ResourceReportResponse PDU encoder/decode.
3337 Smallish bug-fixes in the new encoders/decoders (explain).
3339 Bug fixed in DeleteRequest.
3341 Fixed tagging bug of type 101 query in SearchRequest-Query PDU encoder/decoder.
3343 Fixed tagging bug in ResourceReportResponse PDU encoder/decode.
3345 Added SOIF syntax (using private OID for now) to retrieval module and client.
3347 Added Update extended service.
3349 Added SearchResult-1 additional info structure.
3351 Added optional CCL (ISO8777) interpreter as separate module. Available
3354 --- 1.2 1996/6/10 (1st anniversary release)
3356 Added Summary record syntax. Lightly tested.
3358 Added OPAC record syntax. Untested.
3360 Added ResourceReport service encoders/decoders. Untested.
3362 Fixed bug in z_Unit - wrong tagging on unitSystem.
3364 Fixed bug in the DiagRecs decoder.
3366 Added options for max PDU size and session timeout to frontend-server.
3368 Added documentation of query-language parsers and other supporting utilities.
3370 [frontend-server] Added Attribute set to the bend_scanrequest API.
3372 [frontend-server] NextResultSetPosition was sometimes set incorrectly when
3373 surrogate diagnostics were generated.
3375 [retrieval] Allow multiple local values for attribute.
3377 [retrieval] Allow multiple attributes per element in .abs files. index type.
3379 [retrieval] Added Summary tagset, abstract syntax, and d1-node/ASN filter.
3381 --- 1.1pl2 1996/4/10
3383 Minor changes, mostly specific to Zebra's requirements (retrieval)
3387 Repaired bug in frontend server when running multiple listening
3388 endpoints in dynamic mode.
3390 z_External() now won't break if a known, ASN.1 value comes encapsulated
3391 in an octet-string. The value will pass through unmodified in an Odr_oct.
3393 Added a bit of code to the demo client to decode & display
3394 ASN.1-structured records represented in the octet-aligned branch of
3395 the EXTERNAL CHOICE. Thanks to CAS for prodding us to finally do this.
3397 Added z_ext_getentbyref() to the ASN module. Doc updated.
3399 * Completed the SCAN definition in the ASN module. This may break SCAN
3400 code based on older YAZ-versions at compile-time. The fix is easy -
3403 * Added 'displayTerm' and OtherInformation to the TermInfo structure
3404 under the SCAN definition. Remember to initialize this, server-people.
3406 Comstack should now support the WAIS protocol in TCP/IP mode. Note
3407 that this does not extend to ODR and ASN.
3409 Comstack allows insertion of established socket (primarily for
3410 inetd-operation of servers). Doc updated.
3412 Front-end server can now start from the inetd in TCP mode. Doc
3415 --- 1.0pl4 1996/1/24
3419 Fixed small problem in SUTRS-filter. A newline was sometimes inserted before
3420 the rank and record number.
3422 Adjustments to the frontend server.
3424 Fixed diagnostic BER dumper. It ignored the file argument.
3428 Various changes to retrieval module.
3430 Changed the union discriminators of the protocol files from enums to
3431 ints paired with #defines.
3433 *Changed oident.class to oident.oclass to avoid a reserved word in C++
3436 *Changed operator in the RPN structure to 'roperator', again to avoid a
3439 Fixed problems in Explain decoders/encoders.
3441 --- 1.0pl2 1995/12/6
3443 Memory bug in log module fixed.
3445 --- 1.0pl1 1995/12/5
3447 Occasional malloc() of 0 bytes fixed in d1_espec.c.
3449 Bug in Explain DatabaseInfo module fixed.
3451 Some '\r' snuck into one or two of the ret'l config tables. A curse on Windows.
3455 The shift to v1.0 signals that we now consider the *core* functionality
3456 of YAZ reasonably stable (the core being more or less equivalent to
3457 Z39.50-1992). Some of the really nifty v3 stuff is still not heavily
3458 tested (Explain not at all - though that will happen soonish).
3460 Minor changes to code to support Windows port.
3462 Various minor changes after we're getting to use GRS-1 & co. more.
3464 Added Espec-1 format.
3466 Added VisibleString field body type to GRS-1. It is illegal acc. to my copy
3467 of the protocol and it cannot be selected when encoding (maps into 'string'
3468 when decoding). Needed to talk to some servers.
3470 Demo client can request simple element set names.
3472 Added Diagnostic Format encoders/decoders.
3474 Added simple Close handling to frontend server (no hooks for resource
3475 reporting yet), and demonstration client.
3477 Added cs_addrstr() command to COMSTACK to retrieve peer hostname/address.
3479 --- 1.0b3 1995/08/24
3481 Fixed bug in the frontend-server. The numberOfRecordsReturned field was
3482 handled incorrectly when records were requested in the searchResponse. This
3483 will only affect you if you use the frontend-server.
3485 Added GRS-1 encoders/decoders to the service-level API. Lightly tested.
3486 Test-client will ask for and print GRS1. Ztest will return dummy records
3489 Added Explain encoders/decoders to the service-level API. Untested.
3491 Added Extended Services: Item Order encoders and decoders to the Service-
3492 level API. Untested. We could use a recent copy of the pertinent bits
3493 of the ILL protocol to add those bits.
3495 Added diagnostic format 1 encoders/decoders to the service-level API.
3498 Moved pretty-printing of structure-wrappers ({..}) from odr_seq.c to
3499 odr_cons.c, which causes a more correct output.
3501 Fixed handling of searchRequest in frontend server. NextResultSetPosition
3502 was always set to 0 when no records were requested in the searchRequest.
3504 * Added better external-handling. This shouldn't harm old code that
3505 *encodes* externals. It can break code that looks for a
3506 'single-ASN1-type' representation, since those types that are known
3507 are now decoded immediately. Look at the SUTRS sample code in
3508 seshigh.c and client.c. Documentation updated.
3510 Handling of structured records in bend_fetchresponse. Length -1 marks
3511 structured record, type is deduced from format field.
3513 --- 1.0b2 1995/06/27
3514 Fairly quick maintenance release to add SUTRS support.
3516 Fixed handling of SUTRS records in the demonstration client.
3518 * Added format field to the bend_fetchrequest and bend_fetchresponce
3519 structures of the backend API (frontend server). When the record is
3520 returned, the value of the format field is mapped to an OID. The
3521 value VAL_SUTRS will also cause a slightly different ASN.1 packaging
3522 of the record. The special value VAL_NONE in the bend_request means
3523 that no specific format was requested by the client. Documentation
3524 updated accordingly. Test server (ztest) will return a fixed dummy
3525 SUTRS record if your client requests SUTRS.
3527 Documentation updated accordingly.
3529 You can now set external libraries and RANLIB support in the top-level
3533 First public release.
