APRUTIL LIBRARY STATUS: -*-text-*-
Last modified at [$Date: 2001/12/08 00:43:54 $]
Release:
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.
* 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.
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:
* write apr_brigade_(p)getline, per the hackathon
* 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)
* possibly move md5 from APR into crypto
Justin says: Requires finding a suitable replacement for md5 in
apr/uuid for when we don't have random bytes available.
Status: Justin +1 (volunteers)
Documentation that needs writing:
* API documentation
Status:
* doc the lifetimes of apr_dbm return values
