APRUTIL LIBRARY STATUS: -*-text-*-
Last modified at [$Date: 2002/05/31 00:13:52 $]
Release:
0.9.0-dev : in progress
2.0a9 : released December 12, 2000
RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS:
* Need apu_compat.h to track the latest renames
Status: someone want to step up to diff names between 1.3.x
and apr/apr-util? Sounds like a job for a perl script...
* add misc/version.c and related machinery once the pattern is
laid out in APR.
--> APR has completed the model, but still needs some work for
passing this information to libtool for versioning the
shared libs. we can (at least) start with the header and
implementation code.
* complete the efforts started by DougM for cleaner fn naming
conventions: see proposed name changes in renames_pending
and offer up any additions/vetos/clarifications.
DougM offered to complete the work with his nifty perl rename
script at the hackathon.
* move md5 from APR into crypto
Will Rowe outlined this move in:
<5.1.0.14.2.20020511174016.00b8c468@pop3.rowe-clan.net>
Justin says: Requires finding a suitable replacement for md5 in
apr/uuid for when we don't have random bytes
available.
Greg says: showstopper because of the move of functions from one
lib to another
Status: Justin +1, Greg +1
RELEASE NON-SHOWSTOPPERS BUT WOULD BE REAL NICE TO WRAP THESE UP:
* Solaris's Sun Freeware (sfw) package has a busted gcc/ld setup.
This gcc passes -L/opt/sfw/lib to /usr/ccs/bin/ld, but does not
pass -R. Therefore, when trying to run the code using a
library from /opt/sfw/lib (say, libdb), the run-time linker
will not look in /opt/sfw/lib and the program will die.
Status: Workaround is to add "-R/opt/sfw/lib" to LDFLAGS.
Should check latest sfw package set and see if Sun
may have fixed this.
Other bugs that need fixing:
Other features that need writing:
* possibly move test/testdbm* to util/dbu
Justin says: Do we still want to do this? testdate is now in test.
Status: Greg +1 (volunteers)
Documentation that needs writing:
* API documentation
Status:
* doc the lifetimes of apr_dbm return values
