Paul Bakker828acb22011-05-27 09:25:42 +000011= Version 0.99-pre5 released on 2011-05-26
Paul Bakkerb6ecaf52011-04-19 14:29:23 +000012Features
13 * Added additional Cipher Block Modes to symmetric ciphers
14 (AES CTR, Camellia CTR, XTEA CBC) including the option to
15 enable and disable individual modes when needed
Paul Bakker335db3f2011-04-25 15:28:35 +000016 * Functions requiring File System functions can now be disabled
17 by undefining POLARSSL_FS_IO

21 functions.

Paul Bakkerb6ecaf52011-04-19 14:29:23 +000023
Paul Bakker23986e52011-04-24 08:57:21 +000024Changes
25 * Major argument / variable rewrite. Introduced use of size_t
26 instead of int for buffer lengths and loop variables for
Paul Bakkera755ca12011-04-24 09:11:17 +000027 better unsigned / signed use. Renamed internal bigint types
28 t_int and t_dbl to t_uint and t_udbl in the process
Paul Bakker6c591fa2011-05-05 11:49:20 +000029 * mpi_init() and mpi_free() now only accept a single MPI
30 argument and do not accept variable argument lists anymore.
Paul Bakker9d781402011-05-09 16:17:09 +000031 * The error codes have been remapped and combining error codes
32 is now done with a PLUS instead of an OR as error codes
33 used are negative.
Paul Bakker831a7552011-05-18 13:32:51 +000034 * Changed behaviour of net_read(), ssl_fetch_input() and ssl_recv().
35 net_recv() now returns 0 on EOF instead of
36 POLARSSL_ERR_NET_CONN_RESET. ssl_fetch_input() returns
37 POLARSSL_ERR_SSL_CONN_EOF on an EOF from its f_recv() function.
38 ssl_read() returns 0 if a POLARSSL_ERR_SSL_CONN_EOF is received
39 after the handshake.
40 * Network functions now return POLARSSL_ERR_NET_WANT_READ or
41 POLARSSL_ERR_NET_WANT_WRITE instead of the ambiguous
42 POLARSSL_ERR_NET_TRY_AGAIN

58 before parsing a key or keyfile!
