It was broken since their introduction in 2009. The calculated latency
for most connections would be 0 in which case the timeout detection
failed to account for the real latency.
- - Fix a Windows-specific log viewer thread safety issue.
- Reported by Tim H. in #3525694.
- - Let fatal_error() write to the logfile right away, before showing the
- Windows-specific error message which blocks until the user acknowledges
- it, thus complicating automatic error detection.
- Reported by Adriaan in #3593603.
- - Fix the --disable-ipv6-support configure option for the Windows platform.
- - In socks5_connect(), do not try to print a negative number of socks
- response bytes if the read() for the socks5 negotiation failed
- completely. It's an API violation and can trigger an assert() in debug
- builds with "debug 2" enabled. Except for the assert(), log_error()
- already handled negative %N values gracefully so this commit only makes a
- difference for debug builds.
- - Fix an assertion that could cause debug builds to abort() if a filter
- contained nul bytes in the replacement text.
- Reject URLs with invalid port. Previously they were parsed incorrectly and
characters between the port number and the first slash were silently
dropped as shown by curl test 187.
- The default-server-timeout and socket-timeout directives accept 0 as
valid value.
+ - Fix a race condition on Windows that could cause Privoxy to become
+ unresponsive after toggling it on or off through the taskbar icon.
+ Reported by Tim H. in #3525694.
+ - Fix the compilation on Windows when configured without IPv6 support.
+ - Fix an assertion that could cause debug builds to abort() in case of
+ socks5 connection failures with "debug 2" enabled.
+ - Fix an assertion that could cause debug builds to abort() if a filter
+ contained nul bytes in the replacement text.
- General improvements:
- Significantly improved keep-alive support for both client and server
properly.
- Allow closing curly braces as part of action values as long as they are
escaped.
+ - On Windows, the logfile is now written before showing the GUI error
+ message which blocks until the user acknowledges it.
+ Reported by Adriaan in #3593603.
- Action file improvements:
- Remove the comment that indicated that updated versions of this file are
Submitted by Adam Piggott in #3596089.
- Filter file improvements & bug fixes:
- - Add a referer tagger
+ - Add a referer tagger.
- Reduce the likelihood that the google filter messes up HTML-generating
JavaScript. Reported by Zeno Kugy in #3520260.
- Various grammar and spelling corrections
- Add a client-header-tagger{} example for disabling filtering for range
requests.
- - Correct a URL the "Privoxy with Tor" FAQ
+ - Correct a URL in the "Privoxy with Tor" FAQ.
- Spell 'refresh-tags' correctly. Reported by Don in #3571927.
- - Sort manpage options alphabetically
+ - Sort manpage options alphabetically.
- Remove an incorrect sentence in the toggle section. The toggle state
doesn't affect whether or not the Windows version uses the tray icon and
having to toggle Privoxy off to not show the icon makes no sense anyway.
- Use an enum for the type of the action value.
- Rename action_name's member takes_value to value_type as it isn't used as
boolean.
- - Turn family mismatches in match_sockaddr() into fatal errors
+ - Turn family mismatches in match_sockaddr() into fatal errors.
- Let enlist_unique_header() verify that the caller didn't pass a header
containing either \r or \n.
- Change the hashes used in load_config() to unsigned int.
- Remove the "Copyright" line from print_version(). When using --help, every
line of screen space matters and thus shouldn't be wasted on things the
user doesn't care about.
- - Fix comment typos
+ - Fix comment typos.
- Add an 'Overwrite condition' directive to skip any matching tests before
it. As it has a global scope, using it is more convenient than clowning
around with the Ignore directive.
