httpry-0.1.7-1.fc15.i686.rpm

This is the high level list of changes for each httpry release. Note that
this changelog does not include changes to the log file parsing scripts,
which are often updated significantly between releases as well. It only
lists notable changes and fixes to the core httpry program.


version 0.1.7
   * added an option (-P) to specify the PID filename
   * fixed compiling under OSX
   * changed IPv6 parsing to follow extension headers if present
   * changed rate statistics code to use a hash table data structure
   * added a rps threshold option (-l) when in rate statistics mode
   * changed rps display mode to -s, -t now just sets the display interval

version 0.1.6
   * added IPv6 support
   * added a force output flush option (-F) to disable output buffering
   * removed line buffering on output files
   * added a http request per second display mode (-t)

version 0.1.5
   * added a binary pcap dump file option (-b)
   * changed -s to -f to be more mnemonic
   * added SIGHUP handling for graceful reloads
   * default to line buffering on output files
   * added source-port and dest-port as available output fields

version 0.1.4
   * improved efficiency of header line parsing
   * added support for parsing any request method (-m)
   * default to capturing all HTTP packets with a standard RFC2616 method
   * modified date/time stamp to be more consistent with ISO 8601
   * messages now print to the syslog only when running as a daemon

version 0.1.3
   * improved parsing of non-standard spacing and line terminators
   * fixed compiling under FreeBSD
   * removed broken conditionals that caused pcap_breakloop to not be used
   * fixed the program returning success even if the capture loop failed
   * fixed a potential crash if the program was running in debug mode
   * added a quiet option (-q) to suppress non-critical output

version 0.1.2
   * added support for multiple datalink packet header types
   * added support for virtual devices and interfaces without an IP address
   * output format structure is now a hybrid hash table/linked list
   * removed -f option; capture filters are now passed as the final argument

version 0.1.1
   * fixed some minor format string parsing bugs
   * added debug code to validate correct behavior (use 'make debug' to enable)
   * added packet capture/processing statistics
   * fixed error when changing output file owner after dropping privileges
   * output format structure is now a hybrid tree/list for improved efficiency
   * fixed the header parsing loop continuing into the response data
   * added some additional sanity checks and more informative error strings

version 0.1.0
   * massive code rewrite/refactoring
   * rewrote output format handling code
   * removed config file option
   * removed writing binary dump file
   * removed option to specify run directory in daemon mode
   * changed option letter -f to -r and -l to -f
   * hugely improved the efficiency of packet parsing
   * tweaked default capture filter
   * eliminated some minor memory leaks on shutdown
   * reduced data coupling within the program
   * removed custom argument parser to make it more functional and consistent
   * format string can now have internal whitespace and is now case insensitive

version 0.0.9
   * added parsing of both client requests and server responses
   * default capture filter now less restrictive
   * command line arguments now *always* take precedence over config options
   * wrote custom command line argument parser
   * removed chance to test against invalid data on exit
   * all major packet fields are now availble for output
   * config file options now all lowercase
   * output files are now chown'd to process owner
   * -n switch now counts parsed packets, not total packets seen
   * additional sanity checking for output file paths
   * added necessary compile directives for OpenBSD
   * '-' can be specified for the filename to force STDOUT

version 0.0.8
   * fixed crash on exit when reading from an input file
   * handle whitespace properly in config file lines
   * allow user to specify fields to output
   * removed extended options switch (-x)
   * configurable output data format (-s)
   * parsed HTTP header fields stored in dynamic list
   * error/log/warn macros encapsulated in header file
   * moved TCP data fields to separate header file

version 0.0.7
   * option to read settings from a config file (-c)

   * standardized error and status message strings
   * ability to specify running directory (-r)
   * fixed an incorrect array initialisation
   * split version and help information into two commands (-v and -h)
