* test/t-aserve.cl: bug18668: fix http-copy-file test for SSL
2009-10-11 Kevin Layer <layer@gemini.franz.com>
* makefile: make 8.1 the default on Windows (like it is on UNIX)
* test/t-aserve.cl: tweak the http-copy-file tests to not
depend on being on the Franz local network, and to use the
server instance created during the tests
2009-10-08 Robert Rorschach <rfr@franz.com>
1.2.64
* macs.cl: track recent changes in the smp macros
* macs.cl: fix a package error in a macro; defvar-nonbindable
replaces defvar-nobind
* proxy.cl: restore a dropped #+ignore
2009-10-08 Kevin Layer <layer@gemini.franz.com>
1.2.63
(really from Marijn)
* main.cl: reduce warnings ("Maximum socket file descriptor...")
2009-10-05 Kevin Layer <layer@gemini.franz.com>
1.2.62
* main.cl: get-request-body: only call string-to-octets on
result if it's non-nil
2009-09-15 <layer@HOBART128>
* test/t-aserve.cl: fix test suite for Windows
2009-09-11 Marijn Haverbeke <marijnh@franz.com>
1.2.61
* Fix bug that caused every keep-alive time-out to log a
disconcerting warning. (Unintended interaction of
with-timeout-local and ignore-errors.)
2009-09-11 Marijn Haverbeke <marijnh@franz.com>
* Add read-response-body, a client function for reading the whole
response body. (Also added to reference docs.)
* Fix bug in client-request-read-sequence and do-http-request, which
interpreted content-length as a character length, would get
confused by multi-byte characters.
* Make sure client requests always sent a content-length for PUT and
POST requests, since the aserve server gets confused when it
doesn't.
2009-07-24 Kevin Layer <layer@gemini.franz.com>
1.2.60
* decode.cl: uriencode-string: use uppercase hex chars for
EC2. Amazon's EC2 requires that uppercase characters (A-F)
be used, otherwise the signing of EC2 requests via the REST

* main.cl: fix bug where getting a large request body would
fail due to array not being adjustable

* makefile: add `tags' rule
2008-02-07 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* if during the accept loop a sleep is necessary 4 times,
a new thread will be created anyway. This will allow
the worker threads to grow in more situations.
* add backlog argument to net.aserve:start
2008-01-28 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.2.54
* fix bug where if aserve as a proxy did get-basic-authorization
it would cause two authorization headers to be sent by the proxy
2007-12-26 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.2.53
* to enable zoom on error do (net.aserve::debug-on :zoom-on-error)
and it will no longer act like you added :notrap as well.
2007-12-13 <jkf@MINI>
* do-http-request: have timeout apply to the socket connection
operation as well.
2007-10-23 Kevin Layer <layer@gemini.franz.com>
1.2.52

* ignore body for *response-not-modified* as well
2006-12-20 Kevin Layer <layer@gemini.franz.com>
1.2.48
rfe6669: Changes to handle "204 No Content" from Vebjorn Ljosa
<ljosa-franz-opensource@ljosa.com>. Handling 204 responses is
important because some web services (e.g., Amazon.com's "Simple
Storage Service," S3) use them.
* packages.cl: export *response-no-content*
* client.cl: handle *response-no-content*
* main.cl: define *response-no-content*

they will be processed in the same order they appear in the
header
2006-07-14 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>

1.2.40
* remove debugging format statement in webactions
2004-12-14 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>

2004-11-18 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* use &body in macro definitions to help indenters
* use response code 307 for redirects rather than 301 since
browsers are now starting to consider 301 redirects as
permanent (and since browsers now handle 307 correctly).
2004-09-08 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* publish.cl - handle international characters
emitted by a page where aserve's strategy was
to use a string output stream as an intermediary
storage device.
2004-10-19 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.2.38

the request.
Use process locks when allocating sresources rather
then without-scheduling.

* main.cl - http-worker-thread don't expect the stream
to process to be the first and only thing on the
run-reasons list. Acl7.0 will add things as well.
2004-03-04 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>

1.2.29
* load.cl,
* examples/examples.cl,
* examples/urian.cl: use *load-pathname* instead of
*load-truename* since truename in ACL 7.0 goes through symbolic
links and this doesn't work in the way aserve is built at franz
(via symlinks to source code)
2003-09-04 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.2.28
* non-standard http headers are again supported in all
functions, including proxying (where they are just passed on
or passed back as the case may be).
2003-08-12 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* move the require of :uri to before the first
reference to it in packages.cl

moment, I may export it in the future)
2003-05-08 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>

2003-01-07 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* client.cl - when sending character data obey external formats
* main.cl - initialize log stream to *initial-terminal-io* since

process.
* [htmlgen changes, see it's ChangeLog]
2002-09-06 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* detect connection reset by peer on the AIX operating system

packages.cl
2002-04-10 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* main.cl - fix bug in get-multipart-sequence when used
in an International Lisp with multibyte character input.
In certain rare cases it could get stuck decoding the last
bits of a buffer.
- add :ssl-password argument to net.aserve:start to
specify the password for decrypting the private key
in the file with the ssl certificate. [requires
acl feature introduced in acl 6.2]2
* client.cl - if the content passed to do-http-request
is a list of vectors, each vector in the list will
be sent to the server.
2002-02-28 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.2.23
>>> * incompatible change:
The path part of a uri can't contain certain characters
unless they are escaped like %xx. Even characters that
needn't be escaped *can* be escaped. Thus to canonicalize
the uri path and to allow it to be easily mapped to filenames
we now decode the uri path (convert %xx to the actual character)
before processing it (looking for matches in the published
entities). If you had published a path like "foo%20bar"
then you must change it to "foo bar".
* cgi.cl - add default for :script-name arg
* various - open socket in nodelay mode to maximize performance
2002-02-13 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>

additional environment variables to be specified.
2002-01-15 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.2.21
* main.cl - fix bug where the value of
*default-aserve-external-format* was captured at macroexpansion
time rather than run time. All code using with-http-body
should be recompiled.
* publish.cl - allow mime types to be specified for filenames that
don't have a type component (e.g. ReadMe files).
* publish.cl - set-cookie-header takes an encode-value argument
to control whether it does encoding of its argument.
2002-01-07 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* main.cl - fix problem of restarting aserve in non-ssl mode
after starting it is ssl mode.

2002-01-04 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.2.20
* main.cl - add two higher level functions to aid retrieving
multipart data: parse-multipart-header and get-all-multipart-data.
The examples now show using both the low level and higher
level functions for retrieving multipart form data.
2001-12-03 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.2.19
* main.cl: add ensure-stream-lock function to put a lock object

an NT service, and a description of how to write
web pages that handle international characters

* publish.cl - access file caching
2001-11-15 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.2.17
* added new publish fcn: publish-prefix
>>> * incompatible changes:
redid the way access files are processed, see the
document for the latest spec.
notable changes:
:ignore is now :deny
:block is gone from :subdirectories but I've added
:allow and :deny for fine tuned blocking
:inherit now defaults to nil
you can have multiple forms of the same kind of
information in a single access file and they will
all be used.
2001-11-06 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* fix bug causing infinite loop when reading truncated form body
2001-11-05 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.2.16
* failed request now identifies AllegroServe as the server
and gives its version number
* if AllegroServe isn't setup to proxy it will not match proxy
requests with local web pages.
2001-11-05 <jkf@main.verada.com>
* log.cl - write to log files under the protection of a process
lock found on the stream-property-list of the stream associated
with the :lock indicator. If no such lock is found, write
to the streame anyway.
* examples/chat.cl - improve the speed of deleting messages by
binary searching the existing messages.
2001-10-31 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.2.15
* start now takes a host argument to allow you to bind the server
to a specific host
* publish-multi will not return 304 (not modified) unless the
request is a get or a head
* files published with publish-file will now obey a single
range specifier so they will be download accelerator friendly
2001-10-26 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* add entity-plist slot to entities and use it to link
file entities to their parent directory entities with
the :parent indicator
* add map-entities function
* print vhosts in a why that shows their host names
2001-10-24 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.2.14
* added access files for publish-directory. These allow
.htaccess-like controlling of what publish-directory publishes.
>>> * incompatible change: added an extra argument to the
publish-directory filter function and publisher functions.
2001-10-19 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.2.13
* added publish-multi
* while debugging (:notrap) we ignore connection reset by peer errors
by default since they are frequent and not errors in most
cases. You can have them recognized by setting
*debug-connection-reset-by-peer* to t.
2001-10-18 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* The initial log stream (which is used then to initialize vhost
log streams) is now *initial-terminal-io* and not
*standard-output*.
* random messages (written by logmess) are now sent to the
vhost-error-stream of the default-vhost of the server.
This allows one to separate these random messages from the
the request logs
* logs of proxy activity is now sent to the vhost-error-stream
of the default-vhost of the server. we may rethink this later.
* support vhost specific request filters
2001-10-17 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* cgi.cl: redo cgi so that it doesn't buffer data... also
can now process standard error from scripts
2001-10-16 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.2.12
>>> * incompatible change: the format argument to with-http-body
has been moved to with-http-response.
The format argument to with-http-body was ignored, but on
with-http-response it will be obeyed and will override
the format specified in the entity.
The internal generic function compute-strategy now takes
three arguments. This function isn't part of the
external interface to AllegroServe but some users have
specialized it.
2001-10-15 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* add timeout value to each entity object to serve as a default
that's checked before the wserver-response-timeout.
* add a timeout argument to publish functions to set this
entity timeout value.
* add a publisher argument to publish-directory so users can
control what kind of entity is created when the real file is
eventually found.
2001-10-12 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* using socket stream i/o timeouts in acl6.1
* moved the *http-response-timeout* to a slot in the wserver
object so it can be server dependent.
* documented timeouts in aserve.html
* added timeout test to t-aserve.cl but disabled running them
by default since they take a long time.
2001-10-10 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.2.11
* upgraded support for virtual hosts, introducting
an object to denote a virtual host so that each
virtual host can do its own logging.
See aserve.html for details on Virtual Hosts.
2001-10-08 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* publish.cl - publish-directory must pass on host info

2001-04-04 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* changed how publish-directory deals with urls that
point to directories and not files. It used to
pretend that you specified an index.html or index.htm
file in that directory. This was bad since relative urls
in the index file would not be processed correctly. with
the change it now redirects to the index.html or index.htm
file so that the browser knows what it's getting.
2001-03-22 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.1.41
* add os-processes argument to net.aserve:start
which causes aserve to fork (on unix only) and create

take an optional argument. Now it takes keyword arguments.
2000-12-27 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.1.36
* client.cl: handle illegal set-cookie headers sent by Netscape's
v3 web server. In a client request Split the single large

more user control of redirection.
* proxy.cl - many enhancements including connection caching
2000-11-06 Kevin Layer <layer@ultra>

1.1.34
* add to the list of characters to escape in form-urlencoding
those that must be escaped so that the result can be put
in the query string of a uri

to get around bug in IP redirectors (such as found in www.cbs.com)
2000-10-25 jkf <jkf@main.verada.com>
1.1.33
* hooks for link checking and experimenting with caching
2000-10-19 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.1.32
* add ssl arguments to net.aserve.start and
net.aserve.client:do-http-request so that a secure server
can be started and secure http requests can be made.
Make the aserve test suite test run though the tests using ssl.
Note: the ssl module is only present in certain acl6 distributoins.
* add examples/puzzle.cl - a demo featuring the use of international
characters in acl6.

2000-09-07 Charles A. Cox <cox@delta>
1.1.29
>>> Note: Many of the functions listed in this log entry have had
the :external-format argument added. Documentation has been
updated
Note 2: All changes intended to be upward compatible. Allegro
specific changes are marked with #+(and allegro (version>= 6 0)).
* client.cl: make-http-client-request: add/use external-format
argument.
* decode.cl: uridecode-string, query-to-form-urlencoded,
encode-form-urlencode, form-urlencoded-to-query: add/use
external-format argument.
* main.cl: with-http-body, request-query: add/use external-format
argument.
* publish.cl: get-cookie-values: add/use external-format
argument.
* examples/examples.cl: Add new international character examples.
* test/t-aserve.cl: Add tests for external-format additions.
2000-08-28 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.1.28
* client.cl - before doing a redirect close down the existing
connection.
2000-08-25 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* fix bug which caused file descriptors to remain open
forever if a "connection reset by peer" error occured.
Added the ability to track sockets opened by aserve to
ensure that they were closed before being gc'ed away.
2000-08-24 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.1.27
* rewrote the get-multipart-xxx functions to use an
(unsigned-byte 8) buffer since character buffers have
issues with international code. This eliminates the
extra <cr><lf> at the end problem with get-multipart-sequence.
The file transfer should be faster, especially if you
pass get-multipart-sequence a 4096 byte (unsigned-byte 8) vector.
!! Eliminte the raw argument from get-multipart-sequence. Now
transfers are all 'raw'
If a character array is passed to get-multipart-sequence then
we just copy into each character the code-char of the
item in the buffer (which corresponds to the latin1-base
external format). We will allow external-format select
soon.
2000-08-21 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* add :proxy arg to net.aserve:start so you can enable the proxy
when you start the server.
* fix test suite to report only legit errors
2000-08-20 jkf <jkf@main.verada.com>
1.1.26
* Added a proxy capability. enable-proxy will turn it on.
Currently it acts an http/1.0 client and server since that
makes it easier to debug. However this does cause 12 test
set errors to be reported since it expects to see http/1.1
responses.
2000-08-17 jkf <jkf@main.verada.com>
* implement generalized cons-free header parsing and use it
in both the client and server.
* change the header info returned by do-http-request to
also use keywords to describe headers
!! non upward compatiable change !!
2000-08-15 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* fix bug where certain headers were sent twice
2000-08-12 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* name headers by keyword symbols rather than strings
!! this change is not upward compatible !!
2000-08-10 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.1.25
* decode.cl: request-query will now convert items in query
strings without values into ("keyname" . "") in the resulting
alist.
* doc/aserve.html - update doc of request-query and
request-query-value to reflect what happens with null valued
query elements
2000-08-09 jkf <jkf@main.verada.com>
* publish.cl: write the transfer encoding as all lowercase 'chunked'
since a bug in Mozilla M17 means it will only understand this form.
* htmlgen/htmlgen.cl - add the <caption> tag
2000-08-04 jkf <jkf@main.verada.com>
1.1.24
* examples/chat.cl - add user logins and private messages
between users.
2000-07-31 jkf <jkf@main.verada.com>

note that the request-body has been grabbed.
2000-07-25 jkf <jkf@main.verada.com>
* example/chat.cl - enhanced to support logging into the chat
2000-07-17 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.1.22

* examples/chat.cl - sample program that does web based chat
2000-07-14 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* client.cl - now do-http-request will always return a uri object
(previously it would return its uri arg unless a redirect
was done in which case it would return a uri object)
2000-07-01 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* client.cl - handle the "100 continue" response we seem to
get from IIS whenever we do a post.
2000-06-25 jkf <jkf@main.verada.com>
* keep track all of all ip addresses by which the server
is contacted (this is simpler than trying to figure them
out in advance).
* add function to find a response object given the code.
* keep track of the raw uri by which a request was made
(as distinguished from the uri in which we've added the
host and port values). This is necessary to distriguish
when we must proxy.
* in html-print assume that attribute values are already html escaped
2000-06-12 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
* main.cl: add utility function request-query-value to
combine getting the query info via request query
and locating the particular value with assoc
2000-06-08 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.1.21
* client.cl - do-http-request:
1. give the redirect arg a numeric
value to prevent infinite redirect loops.
2. handle two other redirect codes
3. autoredirect only for get and head

- handle calls to request-query specifying different
uri and post values.
* examples.cl - add redirect test
* t-aserve.cl - test redirection
* doc/aserve.html - update for changes above
* doc/tutorial.html - don't be so cookie centric
2000-05-30 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.1.20
* macs.cl - add note about where to find the if* macro
* main.cl - cache result of get-request-body so that it can
safely be called more than once inside a response
function. Also be sure to call get-request-body
if the connection is keep-alive and there might
be a body following the headers.
* t-aserve.cl - test enhancment to get-request-body
* doc/aserve.html - fix do-http-request documentation to
reflect change made in 1.1.18

order, it now returns the body value first, then the
response code and then the headers.
* fixed bug in publish-directory (sourceforge bug 105426)
* added query and content-type arguments to do-http-request
and make-http-client-request. These make it even easier

1.1.17
* in order to make portions of the LGPL license meaningful

be non-strings and in that case use ~a format to stringify them
* parse.cl
- add arg to utility function
2000-05-04 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.1.16
* request-query can now read from uri and/or post'ed body
see doc/aserve.html for details
2000-04-26 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>
1.1.15
* ! Non upward-compatible change ! -- the function
decode-form-urlencoded has been renamed
form-urlencoded-to-query so as to match its new inverse
function: query-to-form-urlencoded
* added query-to-form-urlencoded to allow one to encode
query to strings for use by client code.
2000-04-24 John Foderaro <jkf@tiger.franz.com>

* verify that it works in acl501 trial (Linux)
2000-04-24 <jkf@CROW>
* load.cl: make aServe load in acl5.0.1 Lite (Windows) but
be advised that it doesn't work very well due to socket
problems that can be patched in the Lite version.

They continue to exist but you have to use
net.iserve::debug-on and net.iserve::debug-off to reach them.
* added two new response type symbols to aid in doing redirections:
*response-moved-permanently*
*response-temporary-redirect*
note that netscape 4 doesn't understand *response-temporary-redirect*
as that's a http/1.1 thing.
* request-query takes a :handle-post keyword arguments. When true
(and that's the default) it will automatically read,
extract, parse and cache the query string from the entity body
when the request is a post request.
