2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3 2008/07/04
4 - added "known issues" section to main www doc page
5 - fixed virtual function mis-name bug in btool's null parser
6 - added -i option to brecsum, to include record IDs in the sums
7 - applied Ashley Willis's btool 0.12 null parser patch to CVS, which
8 required some manual porting changes...
9 - removed bool reference argument in GetParser()
10 - updated AUTHORS
11 - applied Ashley Willis's perlbarry package, putting it in the
12 new contrib/ directory

26 - changed test/buildtest.sh so it is safe to run from outside
27 the directory that contains it
28 - added note to patch webpage regarding testing patches to the
29 build system
30 - removed mis-configured 'make dist' check from buildtest.sh
31 - added missing 'scoped_lock.h' to src/Makefile.am's non-installed
32 headers, as it is an internal header only
33 - improved buildtest.sh: speed, accuracy
34 - added -j option to make to speed builds
35 - moved cleanall check above 'make dist' as dist doesn't
36 clean up after itself
37 - commented out 'make distcheck' for now, as it doesn't work
38 - added DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS to root Makefile.am, similar to
39 David Everly's patch in tracker # 1973536
40 Thanks David! 'make distcheck' now works, but only in
41 an environment like buildtest.sh creates.
42 Also, buildtest.sh passes all tests now, including distcheck.

70 - added timeout argument to Device::BulkDrain()
71 - added mozilla's sha1 code from git
72 - removed openssl dependency due to license issues
73 Debian and Ubuntu have checks in their lintian tool that
74 check for GPL+OpenSSL linkage. In order to remove any
75 potential obstacles to future inclusion in those distros,
76 the dependency is removed here in favour of the small
77 mozilla implementation which is GPL.

129 - updated AUTHORS
130 - renamed sample ppp peer files, in preparation for installing
131 them automatically in binary packages
132 - modified verizon options file to use pppob
133 - split the sample rogers options file into options and chat files
134 2008/05/16
135 - put sequence packet check directly in the SocketZero::RawReceive()
136 function, which now localizes all sequence packet
137 handling and checking, as well as avoids packet
138 order problems when multiple sockets are in use,
139 such as with pppob...
140 FIXME - this localized sequence checking may make all
141 the calls to CheckSequence() obsolete which
142 should probably be cleaned up someday, if so.
143 - reorganized src/socket.cc to match class private/public
144 order (no code change, only move)
145 - added verbose log message to Controller constructors, so it is
146 possible to determine whether a program is using
147 threaded or non-threaded sockets

153 pppd is killed
154 2008/05/15
155 - mention CVS and git on main documentation "how to" list
156 - moved PPP filter logic into its own class
157 - enhanced PPP filter class to support prepending of
158 empty bytes if needed, in order to reduce data
159 copying, and clarified why there is no GetBuffer()
160 - added ProbeResult::HasIpModem() to determine whether
161 IpModem endpoints are available
162 - added pure virtual Modem base class for common
163 modem-oriented API (only Open and Write so far)
164 - Mode::IpModem is now derived from Barry::Modem
165 - experimental implementation for Mode::Serial,
166 which is now derived from Barry::Modem,
167 and uses PppFilter
168 - pppob now supports IpModem and Serial modes, and logging
169 to file instead of stderr
170 - added man page for pppob
171 2008/05/10
172 - modified the planned version numbering scheme in doc/VersionNotes,
173 so that a 1.0 is possible, with 1.50 as the devel series
174 2008/05/09
175 - continuing to update html documentation in preparation for
176 0.13 release
177 2008/05/02
178 - removed -fvisibility-inlines-hidden compile options since some
179 distros have old or broken compilers or libraries where
180 the build breaks looking for STL templates (Ubuntu 7.10,
181 I'm looking at you...)
182 - changed brecsum so usage information is displayed automatically
183 if no command line arguments are specified
184 - added opensync-plugin to maintainer test scripts, and added
185 ubuntu710 to the test build sequence
186 2008/05/01
187 - updated doc/TroubleShooting.txt
188 - removed usb_control message check from IpModem endpoint probing
189 in src/probe.cc, since some devices, like the 8700
190 have both RIM_UsbSerData mode and IpModem mode.
191 - fixed serialization code for Calendar record class, in s11n-boost.h
192 - made UnknownField's data member into its own type,
193 so that when building records, it doesn't get processed
194 like a null terminated string... also added more
195 BuildField() helper functions for accuracy
196 - fixed missing fields in the Calendar record build process
197 - added Calendar to list of Builders in tools/btool...
198 it is now possible to run: btool -s "Calendar" -f datafile
199 - added tools/brecsum program, which calculates SHA1 checksums
200 on database records, for testing
201 - added brecsum to debian and rpm builds
202 - added recurrence builder function to Calendar record builder code
203 which completes builder support
204 Checksums from the following commands now match:
205 brecsum -d Calendar > sum1.txt
206 btool -d Calendar -f calendar.dat
207 btool -s Calendar -f calendar.dat
208 brecsum -d Calendar > sum2.txt
209 diff -u <(sort sum1.txt) <(sort sum2.txt)
210 2008/04/29

214 - updated AUTHORS
215 2008/04/26
216 - started documentation overhaul in doc/www, putting the commonly

218 goal-oriented, so it is hopefully easier to use
219 2008/04/25
220 - updated NEWS file
221 - fixed error messages in m_desktop.cc that still referred
222 to Controller

351 See: http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Visibility
353 Release: version 0.12 - 2008/03/21
354 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
355 2008/03/21
356 - changed maintainer script to use CVS export instead of checkout,
357 to avoid the CVS directories
358 - added support for building Debian source packages with proper
359 diff.gz and dsc files
360 - fixed find warning in maintainer/make-rpm.sh
361 - added support for Ubuntu binary packages to the maintainer build
362 scripts
363 2008/03/13
364 - renamed all vformat_ and VFormat symbols in opensync plugin's
365 copy of vformat code, so they don't conflict with the

367 2008/03/07
368 - updated the install.php web page with Paul Dugas's notes on
369 building RPM's from CVS

390 tar.bz2/tar.gz change
391 - updated AUTHORS file

393 - fixed configure.ac's --with-boost option, so that without args,
394 it defaults to using --includedir and --libdir settings,
395 instead of hardcoding /usr/include and /usr/lib... this
396 should allow smarter compiling on 64 bit systems
397 - updated RPM spec file to use new --with-boost behaviour
398 - ahem, fixed configure.ac again... don't use --includedir and
399 --libdir, as those are install targets... oops.

430 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
431 - src/Doxygen
432 - rpm/barry.spec
433 - debian/changelog
434 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
436 Release: version 0.10 - 2007/11/30
437 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
438 2007/11/30
439 - added support to the usbwrap Match class to limit its
440 search by busname / devname
441 - added support to the Probe class to limit its search for
442 Blackberry devices to a given bus or device name
443 - added command line options to btool for the above Probe
444 bus/device names, and updated the man page
445 - updated the www docs with regard to the new usb_storage
446 behaviour and the new blacklist files... less
447 concern about berry_charge and usb_storage conflicts
448 - added bidentify tool and accompanying man page
449 - fixed bug in rpm maintenance script that used the wrong
450 spec file for opensuse
451 2007/11/29
452 - added better error checking to breset
453 - commented the sleep() for the 8830
454 - added code to handle the race condition where usb_storage
455 claims the device before bcharge arrives on the scene,
456 by asking the kernel to detach the driver from
457 the Mass Storage interface... this change makes it
458 possible to run bcharge, moving from 0006 to 0004
459 to 0001 and back to 0004, all *while* usb_storage
460 is loaded!
461 - changed Probe class behaviour so that it will not throw an
462 exception on Device Busy (-EBUSY) but instead
463 log the error in an internal array and keep going.
464 This makes it possible to use btool and barrybackup
465 with two devices plugged in at the same time.
466 BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY NOTE: this changes initializaion
467 behaviour, but in practice, it should only
468 make applications look more capable, not less.
469 - updated btool to show errors logged by Probe
470 - added message to specify which PIN device is being used by btool
471 - added explanatory comments to udev rules files, about why
472 they are so verbose
473 2007/11/27
474 - added ClearHalt() calls to probe and controller classes, just
475 before any communication happens... the 8830 seems
476 to need this
477 2007/11/23
478 - added usbwrap.cc:GetConfiguration()
479 - added code to check whether the configuration is the one
480 we require, before calling SetConfiguration()... and not
481 to call it if unnecessary. This allows us to run
482 at the same time as usb_storage.
483 Thanks to Martin Owens for not letting this issue go. :-)
484 - added sleep to bcharge, before calling usb_reset()... the
485 Blackberry 8830 behaves like a Pearl device in that
486 it has mass storage support, but behaves like a Classic
487 in that it resets itself... the usb_reset() seems
488 to reset it back to 0006. The sleep allows the device
489 to disappear via its own reset, and let usb_reset()
490 fail naturally on these devices.
491 This is not an ideal solution... mainly for testing.
492 2007/11/09
493 - added modprobe/blacklist-berry_charge as per Simon Ruggier's
494 suggestion. Thanks also to Niels de Vos for a similar
495 suggestion.
496 - fixed udev rules to work on both old and new distros
497 Thanks to Duncan Mak for the bug report.
498 - AUTHORS update
499 - fixed string comparison to use case insensitive compare in
500 opensync plugin
501 - updated Debian package to include modprobe blacklist file
502 - updated rpm spec file to include modprobe blacklist file
503 - split the maintenance scripts into release and test, so
504 that release package builds can be done faster
505 2007/10/26
506 - opensync plugin fixes:
507 - fixed memory leak in vBase::GetAttr()
508 - added support in vformat parser to parse "blocks"
509 and keep track of the hierarchy when
510 parsing an iCalendar, etc.
511 - added support for searching for attributes only
512 inside certain blocks (i.e. find first
513 DTSTART in VEVENT block, not VTIMEZONE block)
514 2007/10/25
515 - fixed bug in Calendar::Clear, missing the Free / Class
516 member variables, leaving them uninitialized
517 - added examples/addcalendar.cc
518 - added more logging to the opensync plugin, logging the
519 ToBarry conversion results
520 - added code to force struct tm.tm_isdst to -1 before calling
521 mktime, in vformat.c
522 - fixed typo in previous fix
523 2007/10/12
524 - renamed ktrans and translate to bktrans and btranslate to avoid
525 file name clashes with libtranslate of Gnome
526 Closes bug #1812410 reported by Troy Engel.
527 - version bump:
528 - configure.ac
529 - src/Makefile.am
530 - src/version.cc
531 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
532 - src/Doxygen
533 - rpm/barry.spec
534 - debian/changelog
535 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
536 - fixed missing default config file in the debian package for
537 the opensync plugin
538 Closes bug #1812224 reported by Ariel (adonatti).
539 - added debian dbg packages for tracing segfaults
540 - modified maintainer scripts so debug packages would reference
541 source code located in /usr/src/barry-0.9, etc.
543 Release: version 0.9 - 2007/10/12
544 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
545 2007/09/29
546 - adjusted autosuspend disabling code in bcharge, based on new
547 information on how kernels 2.6.21 / 2.6.22 work.
548 See bcharge.cc for comments. If device/power/level or
549 device/power/autosuspend exist, charging should now work
550 without recompiling the kernel.
551 - updated website docs with autosuspend info
552 2007/09/27
553 - large update to the doc/www web pages, moving some of the
554 information in README files to html format, so that it
555 is commonly available on the web
556 - added step in maintenance scripts to automatically build the
557 .html files in doc/www when making a tarball release
558 2007/09/22
559 - added libopensync 0.22 version requirement to barry.spec file,
560 but it doesn't seem to work on OpenSuSE 10.2, where it's
561 needed.... hmmmm
562 2007/09/21
563 - updated README to mention new tree build configure options
564 - fixed the configure scripts and makefiles so that when building
565 with custom CXXFLAGS and LDFLAGS environment variables,
566 it doesn't break the full-tree build mode, when
567 using --enable-gui and/or --enable-opensync-plugin
568 - added config.h.in~ to buildgen.sh clean target
569 - converted Debian build scripts to use cdbs
570 - added opensync plugin binary package for Debian
571 - added "Getting Started" section to web pages, as well as an
572 explanatory document for various system requirements
573 - turned on opensync build in RPM maintainer scripts
574 2007/09/20
575 - added filename to power/state error message in bcharge.cc
576 - adjusted maintainer scripts to automatically adjust barry.spec
577 for opensuse rpm builds
578 2007/09/13
579 - fixed some of the release build scripts and added support for
580 automated opensuse 10.2 builds
581 - fixed build target to i386
582 - changed scripts to add to PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable instead
583 of overwriting it
584 2007/09/07
585 - added website docs to doc/www... these are out of date at the
586 moment, and hopefully by including them here, they
587 will be updated more frequently
588 2007/09/05
589 - applied Simon Ruggier's build system patch that allowed a build
590 of all 3 components from the root directory and fixed the
591 configure scripts to support external build directories
592 - reordered clean commands in the buildgen.sh scripts, and removed
593 the INSTALL files, since they are auto-generated by autoconf
594 - removed extraneous buildgen.sh calls in maintainer scripts
595 - added Simon Ruggier to AUTHORS
596 - added explanatory note to 3 stage test build process in
597 maintainer script
598 2007/08/24
599 - fixed Category handling in the Contact record class, to
600 parse the comma separated string into an array,
601 and back
602 Note: this involves a change to the boost serialization
603 and will affect backward compatibility with
604 old serialization datafiles
605 - added Category to examples/addcontact.cc
606 - added Category support to the opensync plugin
607 2007/08/23
608 - fixed wrong read/write in btool output (oops)
609 - added BadSize exception, and changed CheckSize() function
610 to throw it on error
611 - changed backup GUI to catch BadSize exceptions on initial
612 connect, and try a reset if that error occurs, since
613 that likely means the device didn't shutdown properly
614 - fixed in opensync plugin:
615 - some vcard data contains types codes in capital letters,
616 so added lower case conversion routine
617 - changed the order of address lines, so that address1
618 is the street, address2 is the extended address,
619 and address3 is the PO Box. The Blackberry
620 doesn't seem to have any PO Box field.
621 2007/08/20
622 - added -e endpoint override option to btool
623 - added status message to endpoint override
624 2007/08/18
625 - added configure check for strnlen, and implementation for
626 systems that don't have it, or that have it implemented
627 incorrectly. Went a little paranoid here, since
628 AC_FUNC_STRNLEN doesn't set a define in config.h,
629 so I had to do it manually, and check in case autoconf
630 changes in the future... ugh. See src/strnlen.h for
631 the gory details.
632 - added code in probe.cc to fetch the device's description.
633 The description is now part of the probe results
634 along with the PIN. Updates to protocol.h, adding
635 a new attribute definition.
636 Thanks to Rick Scott for pointing out the code in
637 XmBlackberry where he implemented this first.
638 - fixed header dependency in record-internal.h
639 - updated the "required autoconf" version to 2.61 for root build
640 - moved nested structs out of the record classes that contain them,
641 in order to better support SWIG and Python
642 2007/08/17
643 - changed bcharge to use getopt() for its argument processing
644 - added options -p and -s to bcharge, to adjust usb suspend
645 settings automatically where possible
646 - updated the udev rules to use the new bcharge settings
647 - updated the bcharge man page with the new arguments
648 2007/08/16
649 - cleaned up Usb exception handling, moving libusb error code
650 processing into the Usb::Error exception class.
651 error.cc is now an empty shell
652 - added return codes to the Usb::Error exceptions
653 - removed aboutdialog.{h,cc} from the backup GUI since even
654 Debian stable now has up-to-date gtkmm libraries
655 - added more user friendly error message for the "device busy"
656 case, recommending 'rmmod usb_storage'.
657 2007/08/09
658 - added better error checking to bcharge.cc
659 - version bump:
660 - configure.ac
661 - src/Makefile.am
662 - src/version.cc
663 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
664 - src/Doxygen
665 - rpm/barry.spec
666 - debian/changelog
667 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
668 - removed usb_set_configuration() check from bcharge.cc, since
669 that may fail under normal operation, in this case
671 Release: version 0.8 - 2007/08/03
672 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
673 2007/08/03
674 - moved Interface implementation to usbwrap.cc file
675 - added dout debugging messages to usbwrap.cc
676 - clarified unhandled packet error message in socket.cc
677 - added temporary workaround in opensync-plugin environment's
678 Reconnect(), for odd message seen on newer Blackberry
679 devices
680 - fixing issues with Brian Edginton's MessageRecord patch (2007/06/29)
681 - fixed missing size check in message oriented ParseHeader()
682 - fixed endian conversion issues (also found one pre-existing
683 endian bug in the process)
684 - moved message timestamp converter code to time.cc
685 - added Barry version number to opensync plugin name
686 - changed maintainer scripts and rpm.spec to use bzip2 instead of gzip
687 - added opensync-plugin to configure script build
688 - added -S option to btool, to list supported parsers and builders
689 - slight change to opensync-plugin/buildgen.sh to cleanup config.h.in~
690 - opensync-plugin/README update
691 - added opensync-plugin/patches for others who may be building and
692 testing the plugin with OpenSync 0.22
693 - added debian package build scripts to maintainer/
694 2007/08/01
695 - added entry to doc/TroubleShooting.txt
696 2007/07/28
697 - added doc/TroubleShooting.txt
698 2007/07/27
699 - opensync plugin:
700 - fixed bug in vcard.cc that was using the FN field
701 for the broken-down name instead of N
702 - added dbId and dbName to DatabaseSyncState
703 - added Reconnect() functionality to BarryEnvironment class
704 and moved connect logic out of barry_sync.cc
705 - changed the batch commit functionality in barry_sync.cc
706 to single-change-commit. Why? Because opensync
707 0.22 groups all batch changes into one group
708 and calls one batch commit function, even if you
709 registered two. Moving to single change commit
710 mode removes a chunk of unneccessary code
711 from the plugin as well, and can in theory
712 ease memory pressure in the library.
713 - added FinishSync() to perform actions needed on successful
714 syncing completion
715 - disconnect on successful sync completion, and reconnect,
716 since the device's dirty flags don't seem to
717 be updated until a disconnect occurs.
718 2007/07/26
719 - added ReadDataArray() to data.h, using an istream instead of
720 requiring a file
721 - added raw data version of BuildField() to record-internal.h
722 This is so that btool doesn't add extra null terminators
723 to unknown data, when restoring with option -s
724 - fixed bugs in r_contact.cc:
725 - fixed bug that caused a LastName/FirstName swap
726 if FirstName was empty and you wrote a contact
727 record into the device.... First/Last Name
728 fields are position sensitive, and the code
729 was missing the empty FirstName case on writing
730 - fixed bug in BuildFields() and Dump() where they
731 were not updated to handle the new field
732 table added for the postal address changes
733 on 2007/07/20, oops
734 - opensync plugin:
735 - changed the plugin config file, so it is possible to
736 turn debug output on/off without recompiling
737 - moved the standalone Map2Uid() function into
738 the DatabaseSyncState class, and changed the
739 code to produce "contact-#" and "calendar-#"
740 UID strings, instead of just numbers
741 - changed default PIN to -1, so that if the user doesn't
742 configure properly, it will fail... this is a
743 safety measure to avoid syncing with different
744 devices and corrupting the cache/idmap...
745 this should be fixed someday, to handle this
746 automatically
747 On second thought... is this right? Perhaps
748 it is better to fail if the PIN is not what
749 is expected, so a user doesn't accidentally
750 sync the wrong device and lose data.
751 Actions to take on new PIN:
752 - force slow_sync, or
753 - fail
754 - incorporated the new VCardConverter code into the
755 main barry_sync.cc plugin code
756 - fixed bug that did not clear the devices dirty flags
757 in the case where a sync only read data from it,
758 and didn't write
759 - changed PIN error message number to hex
760 2007/07/20
761 - minor wording change in backup GUI prompt: "Backup working..." to
762 "Backup in progress..."
763 - renamed Contact class's Title field to JobTitle for clarity
764 - added record function ParseFieldString(), which properly handles
765 strings from the device that have multiple null terminators,
766 and changed the record parsing code to use this new function
767 - moved FullName() function from ldif.cc to r_contact.cc since it
768 is generally useful in areas outside of LDIF processing
769 - refactored postal addresses in the Contact record class into
770 a new class called PostalAddress
771 - renamed Address class in record.h to EmailAddress
772 - moved Contact::GetPostalAddress() to record.cc as part of the
773 new PostalAddress class and renamed it
774 PostalAddress::GetLabel()
775 - opensync plugin:
776 - refactored vformat helpers into separate base class
777 called vBase
778 - added vCard converter class
779 - commented out the code that skipped over the adding
780 of empty attribute values and parameters,
781 since VCARD depends on some of this behaviour
782 - movified vformat.c:vformat_find_attribute() to take
783 an extra nth argument, in order to search
784 for multiple attributes with the same name...
785 the way this is coded is a bit inefficient...
786 but we're moving away from vformat when we move
787 to OpenSync 0.3x / 0.40, so this is just temporary
788 pain
789 2007/07/19
790 - added SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device" to example udev rules, in order
791 to avoid running bcharge for each endpoint that is
792 added by udev, when first plugged in. Running bcharge
793 back-to-back multiple times can crash some
794 Blackberries.
795 2007/07/14
796 - opensync plugin:
797 - fixed ID mapping bug in the case of a non-numeric UID
798 from syncing external -> Barry, and then the
799 new Barry ID would look like a new change
800 when syncing back from Barry -> external.
801 - added support for slow sync
802 - added clear() to idmap class
803 - added vformat attr parameter extraction class
804 - added more trace logging during vformat/Barry conversions
805 - added Notification time support
806 - handled "all day" vformat special case, when DTEND
807 does not exist in a vformat data block
808 - changed the min1900_t time conversion functions to handle
809 the 0xffffffff special case, when notifications
810 are turned off on a calendar event (src/time.cc)
811 - also made the calendar data dump output clearer for
812 disabled timestamps, and added debug output
813 for the raw min1900 value, in case there are more
814 special cases in the future
815 2007/07/13
816 - fixed null pointer access in opensync's HasMultipleVEvents()
817 2007/07/12
818 - upper management directive: revert all OpenSync 0.3x changes
819 and proceed with OpenSync 0.22. Reverting the
820 opensync-plugin/src tree to Barry 0.7 status.
821 2007/07/06
822 - reorganized exception and trace code in opensync plugin
823 - added XmlToCalendar() function, based on unfinished opensync
824 library API that is not yet finished... will be
825 committed to opensync svn tree when complete
826 - added OSyncXMLField logger to plugin trace class
827 2007/06/29
828 - applied email MessageRecord patch from Brian Edginton (thanks!)
829 - updated Message::Dump() to output more valid mbox data...
830 the goal is to be able to do:
831 btool -d "Messages" > email.mbox
832 mutt -f email.mbox
833 - changed some TODO's to FIXME's to keep it grep-consistent
834 - applied Folder support patch from Brian Edginton
835 - fixed pedantic compile warnings, and changed order in src/Makefile.am
836 - removed unneeded cast in src/r_folder.cc
837 2007/06/28
838 - minor adjustment to ctags building in buildgen.sh
839 - applied patch from Brian Edginton for better boost detection
840 in configure.ac
841 - added boost usage message to btool -h output
842 2007/06/21
843 - more porting of OpenSync module to 0.30
844 - added ctags build for opensync source tree to buildgen.sh
845 2007/06/14
846 - changed PKG_CONFIG_PATH setting in rpm script, so that systems
847 like SuSE that have an extensive PKG_CONFIG_PATH
848 in general use will not break on build
849 - added PKG_CONFIG_PATH to debian script too, just in case :-)
850 - added debian/changelog to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
851 - added comment to rpm/barry.spec regarding SuSE RPM builds
852 2007/06/08
853 - applied patch from Niels de Vos fixing debian package build
854 dependency
855 - applied Brian Edginton's Saved Email Messages patch
856 - updated r_saved_messages.cc comment to match header
857 - added GetRecType()/GetUniqueId() to r_saved_messages.h, since
858 SetIds() is already there
859 - removed Address version of operator<<() from message related headers
860 and moved into record.h
861 - added std::hex to message related dumps, and changed output to
862 be more mbox-like
863 - updated doc/CodingStyle.txt to cover switch() statements
864 - opensync compiles again, with 0.30! (not functional yet)
865 - moving closer to more modular and reusable plugin functions
866 - updated release checklist for opensync version number
867 2007/06/07
868 - added doc/CodingStyle.txt... preliminary version
869 2007/06/06
870 - applied Brian Edginton's PIN message patch
871 - changes to PIN message patch:
872 - fixed missing backslash in src/Makefile.am
873 - fixed tab alignment throughout
874 - removed typedef from Address struct
875 - added clear() to Address... might as well, if it it is
876 going to be a standalone type
877 - fixed missing comma in PINMessageFieldLinks table
878 - changed MessageRecordId in PINMessage to load from a new
879 uint32_t field in CommonField, instead of piggy
880 backing on a field for other use
881 - did some testing and found that PINMessage's MessageRecordId
882 is the same as the RecordId given through the SetIds()
883 API... but these Id's are duplicated in the protocol...
884 RecordId is stored in the protocol header, while
885 MessageRecordId is stored in the record it self as
886 a common field... added RecType and RecordId to
887 PIN Message so that we store both of these
888 - updated AUTHORS
889 2007/05/27
890 - added item to gui/TODO
891 - applied Brian Edginton's s11n-boost.h patch
892 2007/05/25
893 - renamed template values to more consistent naming scheme
894 - applied memos and tasks patch from Brian Edginton, slightly
895 modified to split into the new separate files system
896 - changes to memos and tasks classes:
897 - reformatted the code to match coding style
898 (come on Brian) :-)
899 - added copyright notice
900 - changed class to singular (Memo, not Memos)
901 - placed in Barry namespace
902 - added #ifdef header protectors
903 - added new files to Makefile.am
904 - added new r_*.h headers to record.h
905 - added support for Memos and Tasks to tools/btool.cc, based on
906 Brian Edginton's patch
907 (currently commented out, for Boost library reasons):
908 - added doc/CommitPolicy.txt
909 - updated AUTHORS
910 2007/05/24
911 - added ctags generation to buildgen.sh
912 - applied record.{h,cc} fix patch from Brian Edginton
913 - ClassFlag
914 - FreeBusyFlag
915 - Clear() fixes
916 - fixed broken formatting in above patch
917 - refactored record parser classes into separate files for each
918 - changed the ConvertHtoB<> template to inline, as it caused
919 linker errors with the new file layout
920 2007/05/17
921 - fixed bug in Debian packaging that put util commands in
922 /bin and /sbin instead of /usr/bin and /usr/sbin
923 - commited byteswap.h replacement code from gm2net
924 - backup gui:
925 - removed unneeded debug messages on stdout
926 - changed the default for debug output to "off"
927 and added a command line option to turn
928 it on if necessary (--debug-output)
929 - command line option --help now also works
930 - fixed bug in Calendar class where it didn't initialize
931 RecType properly... and cleaned up other RecType
932 code to use the GetDefaultRecType() functions,
933 localizing the constants in one place
934 2007/05/11
935 - applied patches from Brian Edginton, parsing more
936 fields in Contact and Calendar records
937 - added Brian Edginton to AUTHORS
938 - reformatted record.{h,cc} to match the rest of the code,
939 removed commented out code, and removed mention of
940 Outlook from the comments.
941 - updated udev/10-blackberry.rules.Debian for Debian Etch
942 - updated debian/rules to use new udev rules file
943 - removed debian/postinst, as stable versions of Debian now
944 have a recent udev, and don't need the special handling
945 - updated Debian build scripts to build separate packages:
946 libbarry
947 libbarry-dev
948 barry-util
949 barrybackup-gui
950 - added menu support to Debian barrybackup-gui package
951 - made the buttons bigger in the backup GUI, as they were too
952 small on Debian Etch
953 - opensync plugin:
954 - more progress in porting to opensync 0.30, heavily
955 based on the example plugin in the opensync
956 svn tree... this is a work in progress, and so far
957 is incomplete
958 2007/05/04
959 - opensync plugin:
960 - partial porting to opensync 0.30 (in progress!)
961 - fixed bug in sync_done where it reported context error
962 and then success afterward
963 - checking in new INSTALL files based on Etch's autoconf run
964 - added item to gui's todo list
965 - bumped version numbers to 0.8 in:
966 - configure.ac
967 - src/Makefile.am
968 - src/version.cc
969 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
970 - src/Doxygen
971 - rpm/barry*.spec
973 Release: version 0.7 - 2007/05/02
974 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
975 2007/05/02
976 - added rpm building to maintainer/release scripts
977 - added "HEAD" feature to tarball creation script, for easier testing
978 - updated maintainer/README
979 - updated maintainer/release.sh to use new HEAD feature too
980 2007/05/01
981 - added pppob to rpm barry.spec
982 - bumped release number in barry.spec
983 2007/04/30
984 - opensync plugin:
985 - fixed size check bugs (strlen() == 0 when empty)
986 - finished refactoring calendar conversion routines
987 - started timezone parsing, but this may go away
988 if we use opensync 0.30's time functions and
989 xml data format...
990 - added development note to README
991 2007/04/29
992 - updated README and opensync-plugin/README with more current
993 build instructions
994 - opensync plugin:
995 - refactored some calendar conversion routines
996 - added Barry->vCalendar conversion for recurring appointments
997 2007/04/27
998 - opensync module:
999 - removed some unneeded trace logs
1000 - fixed VEventConverter constructor bug, with uninitialized
1001 m_Data pointer
1002 - eased up the requirement that every calendar event
1003 must have a summary... defaults to "<blank subject>"
1004 if empty
1005 - added more VCALENDAR fields to match Barry::Calendar record
1006 - fixed case sensitive compares in vformat.c
1007 2007/04/26
1008 - opensync module work:
1009 - added id map class to map string uid's from OpenSync to
1010 numeric ID's from the Blackberry
1011 - fixed bug in CommitChange() where it was still using
1012 a hard coded calendar record state table
1013 - added lots of logging throughout
1014 - fixed bug where newly added records didn't use the
1015 change object's uid, but created a new ID,
1016 causing another sync on the next run
1017 i.e. (CommitData_t was missing an argument)
1018 - fixed bug where uninitialized notification time was
1019 written to the Blackberry
1020 - more opensync module work:
1021 - refactored the environment class into another subclass
1022 called DatabaseSyncState, and moved some stand-
1023 alone functions from barry_sync.cc into
1024 the environment classes
1025 - added a tagged constructor to the trace class
1026 - fixed idmap::Load() to clear map before loading
1027 2007/04/20
1028 - renamed barry-config to barry-sync, the default configuration
1029 file for the opensync module... and filled it with
1030 a sample configuration
1031 - added code to update the calendar cache, and write it to disk
1032 on success (opensync module)
1033 - added code to clear dirty flags in the device (opensync module)
1034 - allowed comments in the config file
1035 - added vformat.c from libopensync 0.22, since the vformat
1036 routines are not available from the plugin side
1037 2007/04/19
1038 - updated gui/TODO
1039 - added -d switch to bcharge to switch back from 0001 to 0004 mode,
1040 changed the auto-detection logic to ignore iProduct and
1041 only use idProduct, and updated man page
1042 - updated breset to recognize the Pearl in 00004 mode as well
1043 - changed src/probe.cc logic to assume that the second endpoint
1044 pair is the one needed for database communication, instead
1045 of doing a reverse search from the end... newer Pearls
1046 in Dual mode seem to have at least 3 or 4 endpoint pairs,
1047 and the old search didn't always work
1048 - applied sourceforge patch #1696884 from Peter Silva, updating
1049 the Debian build for Etch, and including all files in one deb
1050 - added Peter Silva to AUTHORS file
1051 - uncommented the "make distclean" in debian/rules, and removed
1052 the reliance on /tmp when installing 99-barry-perms.rules
1053 - applied bb_task_format.txt patch from Peter Silva
1054 - fixed each misspelling of "recurrance" to "recurrence"
1055 - tweaked src/probe.cc again for paranoia's sake... start at
1056 offset 1 if more than 1 endpoint pair, otherwise start
1057 search at 0
1058 - split up opensync module into multiple source files, and started
1059 using the opensync vformat routines for parsing and building
1060 the vevent20 data (experimental)
1061 2007/04/04
1062 - more incremental work on the opensync plugin, adding ADDED
1063 and MODIFIED functionality... (experimental!)
1064 2007/03/30
1065 - added code to dump extra descriptors during device discovery,
1066 if found
1067 - bumped opensync version number in configure.ac, and made
1068 the configure scripts more consistent with the rest
1069 of the project
1070 - fixed printf-format size bug in opensync module
1071 2007/03/29
1072 - applied patch from Niels de Vos, fixing deb udev rules for Pearl
1073 - updated AUTHORS
1074 - fixed extra space bug in LDIF output (added space when creating
1075 FullName, even if there was no last name)
1076 - fixed Address Book record parsing in Contact class... the
1077 Blackberry database uses field id 0x20 for both the
1078 first and last names, and if only a last name exists,
1079 the first name will be empty. Fixed parser to handle
1080 this special case, without relying on string length.
1081 Thanks to Troy Engel for reporting above two LDIF bugs.
1082 - added a few more constants to bcharge.cc
1083 - renamed opensync's configure.in to configure.ac
1084 2007/03/17
1085 - fixed bcharge to avoid endless reset loop... oops
1086 2007/03/16
1087 - reorganized bcharge.cc to make it possible to switch between
1088 Pearl modes 0004 and 0001
1089 - added flag to BadPassword exception class, to signal whether
1090 the library considers the device "out of retries" or not
1091 - updated socket.cc for new BadPassword exception
1092 - added special case to Controller class destructor to reset the
1093 device if being destroyed in a half-open state... this is
1094 a temporary fix until we understand how to handle
1095 the "already open" message we get when opening the Desktop
1096 in some cases
1097 - added password prompt dialog to the backup GUI
1098 - fixed possible memory leak in GUI's DeviceInterface::Connect()
1099 2007/03/08
1100 - committed Troy Engel's bbrules_mass_symlinks.patch, fixing
1101 udev rules for the Pearl
1102 - updated 10-blackberry.rules.Debian to match 10-blackberry.rules's
1103 functionality
1104 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to generate all required
1105 RPM's... Thank you! Notes in the README taken from
1106 the sourceforge tracker entry containing the patch.
1107 - added libusb lib flags to tools/ and examples/ makefiles,
1108 and tweaked configure.ac with a better default,
1109 to build cleanly on RHEL 4
1110 - modified rpm/barry.spec:
1111 - does not create doc-only barry base package anymore
1112 - fixed "barry-backup" typo
1113 - removed the patch step, as version 0.7 shouldn't need it
1114 - added license file to each package
1115 - commented out console perms scripts, pending mailing list
1116 discussion
1117 - updated AUTHORS
1118 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to fix RHEL4 compile issues
1119 - fixed 80 column wrapping error in barry.spec, thanks to Troy Engel
1120 for the bug report
1121 - applied Troy Engel's udev permissions patch for Redhat/Fedora
1122 systems, which automatically set the ownership of a
1123 newly plugged in device to the currently logged in console
1124 user.
1125 - added udev/README to document what all those files are for...
1126 part of the text comes from the sourceforge comment
1127 on the above udev permissions patch from Troy Engel
1128 - uncommented the console perms scripts for rpm/barry.spec
1129 - added libglademm-2.4 to gui/README's dependency list
1130 - made usbwrap.* calls more threadsafe
1131 - added Usb::Timeout exception for timeout errors
1132 - added preliminary UsbSerData support to library for GPRS modem
1133 functionality, using Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry's serdata.c
1134 as a guide
1135 - added overloaded Socket::Send() for sending without receiving
1136 - added preliminary pppob command line tool
1137 2007/03/02
1138 - version bump in:
1139 - configure.ac
1140 - src/Makefile.am
1141 - src/version.cc
1142 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
1143 - src/Doxyfile
1144 - rpm/barry.spec
1145 - build system tweaks for opensync-plugin, and added a buildgen.sh
1146 for it
1147 - added better debug messages in probe.cc and usbwrap.cc's
1148 device discovery code
1149 - changed error handling for null interface->altsetting pointers
1150 when doing device discovery in usbwrap.cc. Seems that
1151 some devices report a higher number in bNumInterfaces
1152 than are really available... in this case, let's
1153 just ignore the missing data and assume success
1154 - applied udev script patch #1663986 from Troy Engel
1155 - applied barry-bcharge.spec patch #1672178 from Troy Engel
1156 - ReleaseChecklist update
1157 - added rpm/README based on Troy Engel's patch notes
1158 - updated new barry-bcharge.spec for version 0.7, removing patch
1159 dependency
1161 Release: version 0.6 - 2007/02/28
1162 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1163 2007/02/28
1164 - fixed size checks for device database records larger than 64K
1165 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
1166 - added initial release maintainer scripts
1167 - fixed odd backup success message in GUI when doing a backup with
1168 no databases selected in configuration
1169 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
1170 - added udev permissions file patch from Michael Brown
1171 - added Michael Brown to AUTHORS
1172 - updated README, gui/README, and doc/USB-capture.txt
1173 - added -o command line switch to bcharge.cc, and updated man page
1174 2007/02/23
1175 - changed library behaviour so it only turns on libusb debug output
1176 if in data dump mode. In btool, -v controls this output.
1177 - minor stream formatting fix in btool
1178 - added OpenSSL dependency to build for password hash support
1179 - made debug dout() output conditional on Init() flag... In btool,
1180 -v now controls this as well
1181 - reverse engineered more of the initial probe packets, and
1182 implemented probing in struct based code... changes include:
1183 - added support for "attribute fetch" packets, used at
1184 the beginning of USB conversations
1185 - defined object/attribute id codes for the PIN number
1186 - made Protocol::SocketCommand more robust, and implemented
1187 its sequence number behaviour
1188 - moved ModeSelectCommand into SocketCommand, as it is a
1189 socket 0 level command
1190 - added initial protocol struct: PasswordChallenge
1191 - renamed Barry::Packet to DBPacket
1192 - added ZeroPacket for socket 0 packet creation and analysis
1193 - Barry::Packet is now the base class for the above
1194 - implemented socket 0 behaviour in socket.cc
1195 - changed return values for Send/Receive/Packet/NextRecord
1196 members in the Socket class from bool to void, as they
1197 don't generate errors themselves, but only can
1198 have an error if Usb::Device throws an exception.
1199 Cleaned up all code that called these members as well.
1200 - removed "last status" from Socket class as it was unused
1201 - updated probe.cc to use new socket 0 implementation
1202 - removed two of the hard coded packet handshakes in favour
1203 of socket 0 packets
1204 - updated controller.cc:
1205 - uses new socket 0 implementation
1206 - removed "flag" hack when opening sockets and
1207 selecting modes, as it should use the
1208 socket 0 sequence number
1209 - added initial, incomplete prototype header for the C API
1210 - updated some .cvsignore files
1211 - updated TODO
1212 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt, adding rpm spec file
1213 - added the following to ZeroPacket:
1214 - ChallengeSeed()
1215 - RemainingTries()
1216 - SocketResponse()
1217 - SocketSqeuence()
1218 - moved Command() to base Packet class
1219 - added comments to protostructs.h and size constants for the
1220 new PasswordChallenge struct
1221 - added password support to Socket and Controller classes
1222 Thanks to Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry for the openssl
1223 password hashing logic.
1224 - updated btool to use new password support, and updated its man page
1225 2007/02/22
1226 - updated Doxygen input files and version, and added to ReleaseChecklist
1227 - fixed btool PIN output for LDIF mode, now commented in output
1228 - major LDIF overhaul:
1229 - split LDIF specific code out of the record class and
1230 into its own
1231 - fixed "full name" behaviour that added an extra space
1232 in dn attributes, as reported by Troy Engel
1233 - added support for mapping of LDIF attributes to Barry
1234 contact field names
1235 - fixed base64 handling, so attributes are only so encoded
1236 if necessary
1237 - fixed base64 attribute reading inconsistency... some
1238 notes fields were missed in old version if not
1239 encoded
1240 - added support for specifying alternate attribute for
1241 constructing a FQDN, instead of just "cn"
1242 - updated btool and upldif to use new features
1243 - large update to btool manpage
1244 - fixed initialization bug in Contact constructor (missed RecType)
1245 2007/02/15
1246 - added ktrans.cc to make reading of kernel usbfs_snoop logs easier
1247 - removed commented code from translate.cc
1248 - added Pearl handshake support to bcharge.cc, which resets the
1249 Pearl so that the vendor specific 0xFF class exists.
1250 This should allow use of btool on the Pearl.
1251 - added Data::AppendHexString to data.cc
1252 - added better probing support for the Pearl, so it detects the
1253 Product ID 0x0004 mode, and does a search for class 0xFF
1254 instead of hardcoding it.
1255 2007/02/10
1256 - applied README patch from Ian Darwin
1257 - minor tweaks to README
1258 - added missing errno.h header in src/usbwrap.cc for AMD64
1259 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting the bug.
1260 - tightened up size checks in Data::ReleaseBuffer()
1261 - stable libusb *does* return the actual length of the USB packet...
1262 fixed this in usbwrap.cc to set the actual size of read data,
1263 and removed the size hacks elsewhere in the code:
1264 probe.cc, protocol.cc, socket.cc, usbwrap.cc
1265 2007/02/09
1266 - added proper return codes for error conditions in btool.cc
1267 - clarified some stream output code in the library, for hex/dec numbers
1268 - removed old, non-working connect.cc test program
1269 - added iomanip to debug.h
1270 - changed usbwrap to call libusb again if EINTR and EAGAIN
1271 This should fix one of the OpenBSD issues
1272 2007/02/04
1273 - updated AUTHORS
1274 - fixed bug in barrybackup GUI that didn't create the target path
1275 if the user didn't do Edit | Config first.
1276 Thanks to Ian Darwin for reporting the bug.
1277 - applied gui/src/ConfigFile.cc header fix patch for OpenBSD
1278 from Ian Darwin
1279 2007/02/03
1280 - added initial btool.1 man page from Ian Darwin
1281 - updated man/Makefile.am for new btool.1
1282 - updated AUTHORS
1283 - applied btool -h help clarification patch from Ian Darwin
1284 2007/02/02
1285 - reworked exception hierarchy, so applications can handle all
1286 Barry related exceptions, including Usb errors, with
1287 one base class: Barry::Error
1288 - fixed all the ripple changes this caused throughout the codebase
1289 - added BadPassword exception
1290 2007/02/01
1291 - version bump in:
1292 - configure.ac
1293 - src/Makefile.am
1294 - src/version.cc
1295 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
1296 - updated doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1297 - added usb-level breset.cc command line tool
1298 - fixed bug in gui/src/tarfile.* for systems where
1299 sizeof(int) != sizeof(void*)
1300 - TarFile class now uses a plugin style for the compression
1301 operations, to allow for threadsafe versions if needed
1302 in the future.
1303 - also fixed leaked file handle bug in open_compressed()
1304 - Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this for 64bit systems
1305 - minor signed comparison fixes in the library
1306 - added better protocol data dumping code in probe.cc
1307 - added Usb::Device::BulkDrain(), to prevent Barry from hanging
1308 due to pending reads
1310 Release: version 0.5 - 2007/01/26
1311 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1312 2007/01/26
1313 - added missing errno.h header to gui/src/util.cc
1314 - lots more endian fixes after testing on iMac
1315 - iostream output size fixes
1316 - added option to btool to reset the device via software
1317 - beefed up exception handling in barrybackup
1318 - checked in opensync work-in-progress: trace logging, pointer bugfix
1319 this is still experimental
1320 - added aboutdialog.* files from gtkmm24 2.10.6, so we have a dialog
1321 class for systems running older versions of gtkmm, like
1322 Debian stable
1323 - uncommented the about box menu handler
1324 - added "cleanall" option to root buildgen.sh script
1325 - update ReleaseChecklist.txt
1326 - removed CVS auto-history strings from aboutdialog.*
1327 2007/01/25
1328 - found a link between the unknown field in tagged protocol headers
1329 and the unknown field in RecordStateTable entries. This
1330 field matters when uploading certain databases, such as
1331 Browser Options. It is unknown what this field really
1332 means, but we're calling it RecType. Updated the API
1333 to use this in all parser objects and builder objects
1334 and record objects that use it.
1335 - changed some uses of uint64_t to uint32_t, in Contact and
1336 Calendar record objects... unique IDs only seem to be
1337 32 bits
1338 - added new static function to record classes: GetDefaultRecType()
1339 This returns the default rectype that should work
1340 for that record. Ideally this should be retrieved from
1341 the device, but in the case where a database has no
1342 records, this info would be good to know.
1343 - updated convenience template function Controller::AddRecordByType()
1344 to use GetDefaultRecType()
1345 - documented the recurrence data and how to use it in Calendar objects
1346 - added data debug output for incoming USB packets in the
1347 socket class... when we ported to the stable libusb
1348 we lost some of the verbose output... this should get it
1349 back. (In the official release, you need to uncomment
1350 ddout() in debug.h for the full blast of debug output).
1351 - backup GUI updates:
1352 - changed error_done signal into a pure error signal,
1353 and changed the logic so the restore continues
1354 even if there was a protocol error on one database
1355 - changed status bar messages to show what's happening
1356 i.e. Backup or Restore
1357 - default to not restore the "Handheld Agent" database as
1358 it appears to be read-only on the device
1359 - added temporary Restore & Backup mode for debugging
1360 - added extra hyphen to backup files to show date/time better
1361 - updated GUI to save and restore the new RecType field
1362 supported now by the library
1363 2007/01/21
1364 - added future considerations to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1365 - applied big endian patch from Jonathan Hudson
1366 - changes to patch:
1367 - removed endian.h include from barry.h, since applications
1368 using the library should not care about endianness
1369 - hard coded the path to config.h in endian.h
1370 so that endian.h never makes it into the final
1371 install
1372 - removed DEFAULT_INCLUDES setting from src/Makefile.am
1373 for the same reason
1374 - removed config.h dependency in btool.cc and used library
1375 Version call instead
1376 - added big/little endian text to the Barry::Version call
1377 - updated AUTHORS
1378 - fixed install location of bcharge when building with ./configure;
1379 now goes to sbin/ for both source compile and binary packages
1380 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this bug.
1381 2007/01/20
1382 - added smarter timeout values to controller, and allowed
1383 timeout overrides in the packet, socket, and usbwrap code...
1384 extra timeouts are needed for erasing databases for
1385 some older devices
1386 - added an explicit DataDumpParser class to btool.cc, as the
1387 library doesn't always have extreme verbose debugging on...
1388 this makes sure anyone can always get raw database packets
1389 through btool, for development
1390 - added thread callback signals for error finishes and erase_db
1391 operations, so the GUI is updated properly
1392 - more GUI cleanups (status bar updates, etc)
1393 - finished implementation of GUI restore
1394 - fixed gtkmm/glibmm exception handling when the exceptions
1395 occur in sigc signal handlers... in that case,
1396 exceptions need to be handled with
1397 Glib::add_exception_handler()
1398 - added filename-only reading support to TarFile class
1399 - added pending gui/TODO items
1400 2007/01/19
1401 - backup GUI now properly shows progress
1402 - the buttons become insensitive when backup is busy
1403 - refactored directory check code, and added mkdir check
1404 when to the backup setup (so the directory exists
1405 when we try to write to it)
1406 - updated code to use Barry::Data in new namespace
1407 2007/01/18
1408 - moved Data class into Barry namespace
1409 2007/01/13
1410 - updated copyright dates for the new year
1411 - clarified exception message in controller.cc
1412 - fixed pointer initialization bug in controller.cc
1413 - added documentation comments to parser.h and builder.h
1414 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt
1415 - updated README
1416 - changed Barry library configure scripts to make better
1417 use of pkg-config for autodetecting dependencies
1418 - added initial Barry Backup GUI (gui/ directory), capable of making
1419 backups only at this point
1420 2007/01/11
1421 - added doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1422 - added version API, returning version number and string
1423 - added Troy Engel to AUTHORS
1424 - added special case to bcharge.cc for the Blackberry Pearl,
1425 which doesn't reset itself after the charge handshake
1426 Thanks to Troy Engel for testing.
1427 2007/01/05
1428 - added pkg-config support for the library (libbarry-0.pc.in)
1429 - fixed compile error on g++ 3.3 systems (missing stdint.h
1430 in probe.h)
1431 - fixed protocol hang at end of Controller operation... in
1432 controller destructor, it was deleting the USB interface
1433 before closing the socket at the BlackBerry level, thereby
1434 leaving the device in Desktop mode
1435 2007/01/04
1436 - support the newer udev packages on Ubuntu, which need slightly
1437 different rules
1438 - modified bcharge.cc to search for Pearl devices too.
1439 USB product ID 6
1440 - added Pearl product ID to probe code, but likely not functional
1441 yet until we find someone able to get a USB capture for us
1442 2006/12/29
1443 - version bump in configure.ac and src/Makefile.am
1445 Release: version 0.4 - 2006/12/29
1446 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1447 2006/12/29
1448 - added bcharge.cc to the tools/ directory (whoohoo!)
1449 - added initial release version of rpm/barry.spec (aka bcharge.spec)
1450 This begins the barry binary release, currently only
1451 including the bcharge utility, but possibly more in
1452 the future. Future binary packages will likely include
1453 libbarry, libbarry-devel, etc, which barry will then
1454 depend on.
1455 - added udev rule script for BlackBerry devices
1456 - added man/ directory and bcharge.1 manpage
1457 - added debian/ directory for building deb packages, with initial
1458 package scripts
1459 - added rpm/make-rpm-tarball.sh for building RPMs
1460 - split out technical docs into separate libbarry.docs file for
1461 a future Debian install
1462 - added more cleaning to buildgen.sh
1463 - added new udev rule file for Debian stable
1464 - hardcoded g++ to 3.3 in debian/rules as I have multiple versions
1465 on my system and need to compile releases with stable
1466 2006/12/21
1467 - ported Barry to use the stable branch of libusb
1468 NOTE: no longer depends on the devel libusb tarball!
1469 Just use your distro's libusb packages.
1470 - fixed more endian issues
1471 - minor update to TODO
1472 2006/12/15
1473 - moved Exceptions, Hacking, and VersionNotes to doc/
1474 - added doc/USB-capture.txt
1475 2006/12/08
1476 - added Controller::AddRecord() and template helper
1477 - added beginning version of generic RecordFetch<> template
1478 - set default of Barry::Init() to false (no data dump mode)
1479 - added examples/ directory, with first addcontact.cc example
1480 2006/12/07
1481 - added autoconf support based on Peter McAlpine's patch
1482 - renamed Makefiles to Makefile.orig and added script to turn
1483 on old build system if wanted
1484 - fixed boost-specific error path in btool
1485 - moved platform specific code out of time.h and into time.cc
1486 - moved btool.cc, translate.cc, and upldif.cc out of src/ and
1487 into their own tools/ subdirectory
1488 - added NEWS file to make autotools happy
1489 - added a "clean" option to the buildgen.sh script... maintainer's
1490 use only
1491 - reworked autoconf and automake files, to support
1492 barry as a library, to move the programs into their
1493 own tools directory, and support a proper installation
1494 - fixed headers in parser.h, btool.cc, and upldif.cc to work

1550 - added stdint.h to parser.h for uint32_t. Thanks Ron Gage for
1551 the bug report
1552 2006/09/08
1553 - large refactoring of the packet parsing and building code,
1554 splitting the code into 3 groups:
1555 - record: handles record specific parsing and building...
1556 this is mostly subfields with CommonField structs
1557 as their headers, but sometimes has a specific
1558 header of its own, in the case of email
1559 Note: email's header is as yet undecoded.
1560 Record does not know the details of the packet
1561 formats, only the formats of its own record data.
1562 - packet: handles building of complete command packets
1563 and handles parsing of commonly used header values,
1564 providing an API for it... packet does not know
1565 the record format details, but does know the
1566 details of each Database Operation (protocol.h)
1567 packet format.
1568 So far, it seems that there is a real separation
1569 of operation formats and record formats, with the
1570 record formats being the same even with different
1571 database operation codes (GET_RECORDS /
1572 OLD_GET_RECORDS), which was not confirmed before.
1573 See the header size of the email record after
1574 refactoring.
1575 - controller: handles device state, and the management of
1576 sockets, commands, and checking for response values.
1577 The Controller object does not know the format
1578 of either the record or the packet it is sending,
1579 but does know the protocol handshake logic used
1580 to talk to the device.
1581 - implemented SetRecord (SET_RECORD_BY_INDEX)... syncing, here
1582 we come!
1583 - spelling correction in opensync-plugin/AUTHORS
1584 2006/09/01
1585 - added sample hotplug scripts
1586 - added .cvsignore files for doxygen and opensync directories
1587 - added src/endian.h... still need to add configure support to
1588 handle non-little-endian machines
1589 - added exception handler in opensync plugin commit_change()
1590 - removed the device reset code in probe.cc, as resetting a device
1591 can renumber the devices in /proc on kernel 2.4.x,
1592 and cause a failure to reach the device...
1593 FIXME - this should be changed someday to reset if probing
1594 fails, and restart the probe on reset, as sometimes
1595 the blackberry devices respond differently when not reset
1596 Ideally, the probe protocol should be properly reverse
1597 engineered.
1598 - added support for retrieving record state table, which is needed
1599 for smarter syncing
1600 - added support for retrieving, deleting, and clearing the dirty
1601 flags of individual blackberry device records
1602 - added endian macros throughout the code
1603 2006/07/13
1604 - added opensync-plugin to root Makefile's clean
1605 - updated time conversion calls to match opensync's latest SVN
1606 - added opensync_change_set_changetype() (only add for now,
1607 for development)
1608 - removed slow sync functions for now
1609 2006/07/07
1610 - added quick "install" makefile target, to src/install by default
1611 - added static library target... this is temporary until autoconf
1612 stuff is added properly... needed for the opensync plugin
1613 - documented in comments that Barry::BError is intended to be
1614 the base classes for all exceptions
1615 - added first round of implementation of an opensync plugin, based
1616 on the example plugin code from the opensync sources
1617 2006/06/22
1618 - added to Contact record class:
1619 - Clear()
1620 - ReadLdif() to load and parse LDAP data
1621 - added fragmented send support to Socket class
1622 - added Probe::FindActive() to make client programs more streamlined
1623 - fixed hex/decimal printing of record counts in btool
1624 - added upldif.cc, a utility to take ldapsearch output on stdin
1625 and upload it to a blackberry
1626 - updated src/.cvsignore
1627 2006/06/16
1628 - added parsing of service book fields:
1629 - old and new name
1630 - old and new unique ID (UID)
1631 - content ID (CID)
1632 - old and new description
1633 - DSID
1634 - bes domain / domain
1635 - date change in legal.txt
1636 - added initial parsing of ServiceBook field 0x09, and calling it
1637 ServiceBookConfig for now, for lack of a better name
1638 - added parsing for ServiceBook field 0x02 on 72xx Blackberries...
1639 seems to be a name or description, but doesn't appear
1640 in the device's own GUI... called "Hidden Name" for now
1641 2006/06/09
1642 - added ServiceBook record class and parser code, based on some
1643 of Ron Gage's reverse engineering... code is by Chris Frey
1644 - added AUTHORS file
1645 - fixed the libusb set_configuration/claim_interface order
1646 bug in controller.{h,cc}... already fixed in probe,
1647 but not controller. Thanks Ron Gage for finding this.
1648 2006/05/25

1666 - copyright dates updated for 2006
1667 2006/01/05

1671 - added clean target to convenience Makefile
1672 - added Boost to list of dependencies in README
1673 - fixed minor compile warnings in base64.cc
1674 - fixed new USB discovery code, and changed endpoint usage to use
1675 it, instead of the READ_ENDPOINT and WRITE_ENDPOINT
1676 constants... constants are now removed
1677 common.h, controller.cc, probe.cc, probe.h, usbwrap.cc
1678 - added ClearHalt() to Usb::Device (usbwrap.cc)
1679 - updated usbwrap.h to match latest libusb CVS devel tree

1696 - added return_code field to DBAccess struct, for error checking
1697 - added response checking during upload: if response is non-zero
1698 throw exception in controller.cc
1699 - added sorting operators to record parser classes... when writing
1700 contact data to the device, it may be important to write
1701 group link items last, since they reference other contacts...
1702 This needs to be tested, and if not required, removed.
1703 - added GROUP_FLAG field code to Contact parser class
1704 - fixed offset bug in Contact and Calendar Build() functions
1705 - fixed name bug in Contact::Build(), now output only with data

1713 controller.cc instead of record.cc parsers and builders
1714 - parser code now accepts an offset, to govern start of record data
1715 - changed Data sizes from int to size_t and removed casts
1716 - removed unneeded Parser::GetHeaderSize() (new protostructs make
1717 this obsolete)

1719 2005/12/10
1720 - added s11n-boost.h serialization templates for boost::serialization
1721 - added boost::serialization to build
1722 - minor change in usbwrap.cc to display error codes in decimal
1723 - added SizePacket special case code to Socket::Send()... this is
1724 required when uploaded packet size is a multiple of 0x40,
1725 a special 3 byte size packet is sent
1726 - moved some record class variables to public: so they can be
1727 properly serialized
1728 - fixed variable name but in RecordBuilder template
1729 - added -f switch to btool, for saving and loading of record data

1742 optimize away protocol struct casts
1743 see:
1744 http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25235

1748 02a2a3cc?hl=en#5714701b02a2a3cc
1749 - changed headers so that any low level protocol-specific sizes and
1750 structs are completely hidden in the library...
1751 this adds library-only header: protostructs.h
1753 Release: version 0.0.1 - 2005/11/25
1754 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1755 2005/11/25

1775 2005/11/19
1776 - added parser.{h,cc} virtual wrapper to generalize LoadDatabase()
1777 - added code to socket.cc's Packet() command to re-receive on
1778 reception of empty packets... this seems to be a signal
1779 from the device that it needs more time for long transfers
1780 Current limit: 10 blank packets before exception is thrown
1781 Observed maximum blank count: 1
1782 - added MessageRecord and OldMessageRecord to protocol.h
1783 - changed common record field structs to one CommonField struct
1784 - increased default USB timeout to 10 seconds (some loaded devices
1785 seem to need more time...)
1786 - reorganized record.{h,cc} to try to reduce the code duplication
1787 - record.h classes now "know" the sizes of their corresponding
1788 protocol structs... this may cause trouble down the line
1789 with Python, if used(?)
1790 - added Message class for Email records
1791 - removed the "Get*" database functions and replaced with
1792 general LoadDatabase() call, which loads any database
1793 available, and parses it with a Parser object
1794 - added GetDBID() for searching for database numbers via name
1795 - added test code to retrieve and display all email
1796 - cleaned up comments

1806 - removed Test() function in Controller object, and made class
1807 better suited to its general API purpose
1808 - changed OpenMode() so it loads command table and DBDB... it is now
1809 a public API function
1810 - moved Controller test code to btool.cc and made tool more
1811 generically useful... can now download any DB by name on
1812 the command line
1813 - added mode checks to Controller
1814 - added -t and -d command line options to btool
1815 - added base64 routines from John Walker / Fourmilab and Citadel/UX

1820 - renamed sbcommon.* to common.*
1821 - increased USB default timeout to 2 seconds
1822 - fixed formatting bug in Data operator<< output
1823 - cleaned up the protocol packet structs, getting rid of the
1824 confusing param/simple split... param is now the tableCmd
1825 from the Command Table
1826 - moved protocol structs from record.h to protocol.h
1827 - added support for older version of the USB protocol, which matches
1828 the Cassis spec more closely
1829 - fixed the hardcoded offsets in blackberry.cc's protocol parsing
1830 - fixed Socket::Close() so on error, socket flags are reset.
1831 This stops Close() from being called twice on exception
1832 destructors
1833 2005/11/17
1834 - added Doxyfile to the project
1835 - tuned Makefile
1836 - added mode selection support to Blackberry class (RIM Desktop,
1837 RIM Bypass, and RIM_JavaLoader)
1838 Mode selection governs which socket is used in subsequent
1839 data transfers.
1840 - added Command Table parsing and protocol support
1841 Blackberry class, and CommandTable record class
1842 - added Database database parsing and protocol support
1843 Blackberry class and DatabaseDatabase record class
1844 - added Address book retrieval support - dumps data to stdout for now
1845 - fixed bug in CopyOnWrite mode in Data class, where could allocate
1846 less buffer than data copied
1847 - added "easy exception" debug output macro
1848 - fixed minor spelling error in protocol.cc
1849 - fixed ModeSelectCommand protocol structure - it is not a parameter
1850 command, but uses the unknown slots for socket and flag
1851 data
1852 - removed hardcoded socket numbers from protocol.h
1853 - fixed bug in socket.cc:Open() where packet size was not properly
1854 saved
1855 - implemented socket::Close()
1856 - fixed sequence number checks, so it is reset properly on socket 0
1857 - added Socket::NextRecord() for multiple record data transfers
1858 - fixed input handling bug in translate.cc
1859 2005/11/11
1860 - added .cvsignore files to project
1861 - added README notes to document the source architecture
1862 - added dbsetup data script, which shows how to get into database
1863 mode, using the RIM Desktop mode, and open a socket
1864 - added blackberry.{h,cc} class
1865 - added command line parameters to bbtool.cc
1866 -l = list only
1867 -p = specify pin of blackberry device
1868 - added blackberry test code in bbtool.cc - debugging the initial
1869 opening protocol: sockets, modes, etc... see dbsetup for
1870 results
1871 - added copy-on-write functionality to Data class, so it can be used
1872 with plain data buffers with little performance impact
1873 - added eout() and ddout() debugging - to separate:
1874 - regular debug output
1875 - exception debug output (should probably be logged to
1876 syslog someday, and never turned off)
1877 - raw data dump output
1878 - changed errno SBError exception handler to try to decode the error
1879 numbers into english (limited success)
1880 - fixed probe and socket USB Bulk message handling, so they don't
1881 use PollCompletions(), but use IO::Wait() (libusb_io_wait())
1882 - added common packet size checker in protocol.cc
1883 - fixed unpacked protocol packet structs... using gcc's
1884 __attribute__ ((packed)) ... see protocol.h
1885 - added ModeSelectCommand structure (protocol.h)
1886 - finished Socket::Open() call (Close() not yet implemented)
1887 - moved Socket::Send/Receive() out of private, as they can be used
1888 for socket 0 operations.
1889 - cleaned up pointer management with macros:
1890 MAKE_PACKET()
1891 COMMAND()
1892 IS_COMMAND()
1893 - added IO::Wait() and IO::Cancel() to correspond with libusb API
1894 - added datadumping in usbwrap for easy protocol capture
1895 - added preliminary record.{h,cc} classes
1896 - added Contact record parsing, and test code
1897 2005/10/20
1898 - syncberry tree started
