Release note

~~~~~~~~~~~~

9+
Advanced Software Production Line is proud to announce Vortex
10+
Library 1.1.16 "Elephant in the Room" release availability: an open
11+
source "BEEP Core" protocol implementation written in C, mapped onto
12+
TCP/IP.
13+
14+
Vortex Library is a stable and robust application protocol
15+
development toolkit, with active support for Microsoft Windows and
16+
GNU/Linux platforms.

This release in short
31+
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
32+
33+
- Added Vortex External module to allow easily creating BEEP over
34+
any connection oriented transport by providing a set of handlers
35+
that implements the specific part of the protocol supported. Used
36+
this new transport to support BEEP over BlueTooth (done by Arthur
37+
Kristmann).
38+
39+
- Fixed mutex API to provide a consistent behaviour (recursive vs
40+
non-recursive) and added new API to provide this support. Reported
41+
by Ralf Konusch.
42+
43+
- Fixed tls digest segfault (reported by Ralf Konusch).
44+
45+
- Removed wrong nopoll.h header from vortex_external.h (Arthur
46+
Kristmann).
47+
48+
- Various stable improvements and new regression tests.

Changes since 1.1.15
63+
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
64+
65+
* [fix] Updated vortex_websocket_connection_new to use a default
66+
connect timeout of 60 seconds when it is not defined or it is
67+
0. This fixes those connections that takes some time to finish the
68+
initial WebSocket handshake to give then a chance to to the BEEP
69+
greetings. Discovered by turbulence reg test (test_25) with a low
70+
resources machine.
71+
72+
* [new] Added new extension library (vortex external) that allows to
73+
create BEEP connections over external created and unknown transports
74+
provided they have a socket like watchable API and connection
75+
oriented state. API added:
76+
77+
- vortex_external_setup_new
78+
- vortex_external_setup_ref
79+
- vortex_external_setup_unref
80+
- vortex_external_setup_conf
81+
- vortex_external_connection_new
82+
- vortex_external_listener_new
83+
- VORTEX_EXTERNAL_CONF_MUTEX_IO
84+
- VORTEX_EXTERNAL_CONF_HOST
85+
- VORTEX_EXTERNAL_CONF_PORT
86+
- VORTEX_EXTERNAL_ON_PREPARE_HANDLER
87+
- VORTEX_EXTERNAL_ON_PREPARE_USER_DATA
88+
- VORTEX_EXTERNAL_ON_PREPARE_USER_DATA2
89+
90+
Added regression test (test_21) to check this new API that for now
91+
uses socketpair to create a pair of connected BEEP connections that
92+
works at the same time as initiators..
93+
94+
Updated Vortex Connection internal API to allow skipping naming
95+
checking and session setup.
96+
97+
* [fix] Added more code to implement vortex external listener
98+
API. Added regression test_22.
99+
100+
* [fix] Added more updates to vortex_external_listener_new
101+
(completed). Added working regression test (test_22) to check
102+
support added. Added additional documentation to explain how to use
103+
this.
104+
105+
* [fix] Adding and fixing documentation to include references to BEEP
106+
over WebSocket and BEEP over external (like BlueTooth).
107+
108+
* [fix] Adding more documentation updates explaining how to use vortex
109+
external module..
110+
111+
* [fix] Removed nopoll.h reference used by vortex_external.h, not
112+
needed (reported by Arthur Kristmann)
113+
114+
* [fix] Updated vortex_listener and vortex_external modules to skip
115+
naming checking (getnameinfio) when accepting a connection using the
116+
external interface.
117+
118+
* [fix] Adding files to build FreeBSD amd64 10.X: 10-x86-64
119+
120+
* [fix] Several updates to compile web-socket and external components
121+
for windows build..
122+
123+
* [fix] Several updates to include .def generation without linking it
124+
into building process.
125+
126+
* [fix] Several updates to make building process for win64 to produce
127+
right .lib files. Simplified configuration...
128+
129+
* [new] Updated vortex ctx API to allow controlling write timeout (to
130+
disable it or to increase its default value):
131+
132+
- vortex_ctx_close_conn_on_write_timeout
133+
- vortex_ctx_write_timeout
134+
135+
* [fix] Updated .def files to cover new apis for write timeout
136+
control..
137+
138+
* [new] Adding new API to check what are the number of channels with
139+
pending operations at the vortex sequencer..
140+
141+
* [fix] Fixed implementation of vortex_connection_get_pending_msgs..
142+
143+
* [fix] Updated vortex_mutex_create to use CreateSemaphore with a a
144+
initial value of 1 rather than CreateMutex to implement a non
145+
recursive behaviour for vortex_mutex_lock and vortex_mutex_unlock
146+
(Reported by Ralf Konusch).
147+
148+
* [new] Added support to configure and create recursive mutexes. API
149+
added:
150+
151+
- vortex_mutex_create_full
152+
- VortexMutexConf
153+
154+
* [fix] Updated vortex-regression-client.c to include additional
155+
checks to ensure vortex_mutex_create_full with recursive option
156+
works well..
157+
158+
* [fix] Added additional code vortex vortex_mutex_unlock to detect if
159+
we are working on windows with a mutex or semaphore..
160+
161+
* [fix] Adding additional code to mutex handling (on windows) to be
162+
able to differentiate between recursive and non-recursive mutexes and
163+
how they are unlocked..
164+
165+
* [fix] Several updates on mutex handling for windows (win32). Now it
166+
uses a internal structure (VortexWin32Mutex) that allows to hold
167+
additional information about the kind of mutex (mutex or semaphore)
168+
and configuration received.
169+
170+
* [fix] Fixed vortex_tls_get_peer_ssl_digest to use
171+
vortex_tls_get_digest (fixes error reported by Ralf Konusch). Added
172+
regression test_00g to check vortex_tls_get_digest and updated
173+
test_05 to check vortex_tls_get_peer_ssl_digest it is working..
174+
175+
* [fix] Fixed various issues spotted by gcc (5.3.1) at the xml-rpc-gen
176+
compiler
177+
