LEIFHED / perldap-1.4 / ChangeLog 
1999-08-24  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com>

	* Merged v1.3.x into trunk, tagged it as v1.4, and released it!

1999-08-19  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com>

	* Changed internal version numbering again, just called this plain
	v1.4.

	* Entry.pm (FIRSTKEY): Bug fix, we'd crap out if there are no
	attributes in the returned entry.
	(NEXTKEY): Ditto.

1999-08-18  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com>

	* Set version number to v1.4! Woohoo! Also tagged it as v1.3.4,
	last "development" release.

1999-08-17  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com>

	* Makefile.PL: Fixes for Windows/NT, cleaned out some code etc.
	(MY::postamble): Support for "make html".

	* MANIFEST: Updated with all new files etc.

	* test.pl: Renamed to oldtest.pl, to avoid "make test" to fail.

1999-08-16  Kevin McCarthy  <kmccarth@perldap.org> and Leif Hedstrom

	* API.xs: Cleaned most all the memory allocation changes, we are
	changing it to use the LDAP_OPT_MEMALLOC_FN_PTRS option in the
	C-SDK instead (much cleaner!).
	(perldap_init): New function, set up the memory management
	handlers. This is called when the API module is loaded.
	(perldap_malloc): New function, our memory management method(s).
	(perldap_calloc): Ditto.
	(perldap_realloc): Ditto.
	(perldap_free): Ditto.

1999-08-16  Kevin McCarthy  <kmccarth@perldap.org>

	* API.xs: Cleaned up prototypes, changed strdup() to use a
	Perl'ified version, change a number of free()'s to use Safefree.
	(ldap_value_free_perl): New function, similar to
	ldap_mods_free_perl(), to avoid memory problems (on NT and
	ActivePerl primarily).
	(StrDup): New function, to handle strdup() calls in a safe way.
	(ber_bvfree_perl): Ditto.
	(ber_bvecfree_perl): Ditto.

1999-08-15  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com>

	* API.xs (ldap_mods_free_perl): Modified version of
	ldap_mods_free(), which uses Perl native free method instead of
	the things from the LDAP SDK. This fixes some nasty issues with
	Windows/NT and ActiveState Perl. Woohoo!!!

1999-08-14  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com> and Kevin McCarthy

	* Entry.pm (setValues): Implemented bug fix for bug id 7131, where
	the "_save_" structures weren't set properly when using setValues().

1999-08-14  Kevin McCarthy  <kmccarth@perldap.org>

	* Conn.pm (update): Rewrote to optimize add/remove vs replace
	operations. Basically, we'll try to do whatever seems to be the
	smallest amount of work for the LDAP server now.

1999-08-13  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com>

	* Makefile.PL: Cleaned up code, and added support for linking in
	the missing libraries need for some missing symbols.

1999-08-13  Michelle Wyner  <mwyner@netscape.com>

	* Entry.pm: Updated documentation, and cleaned it up.

	* Conn.pm: Ditto.

1999-08-12  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com>

1999-08-10  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com>

	* Entry.pm (setValues): Renamed, used to be setValue(), which is
	now an alias to setValues().
	(getValues): New method, to get the array of values.
	(STORE): Fixed tests around DN handling, making sure it's not
	treated as an array. I also optimized a couple of tests, since we
	now filter out "DN" earlier in the funtion(s).
	(attrModified): Ditto.
	(attrClean): Ditto.
	(unRemove): Ditto.
	(removeValue): Ditto.
	(addValue): Ditto.

1999-08-08  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com> and Kevin McCarthy

	* Entry.pm (setValue): Remove _delete_ flag, if set.

1999-08-06  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com> and Kevin McCarthy

	* API.xs: Added some more tests around free() statements. These
	are most likely never triggered, but better safe than sorrow (and
	the overhead of testing this is insignificant).

	* Conn.pm (browse): Added this function, to make it easy to browse
	an entry.
	(compare): Compare an attribute value against a DN/entry, without
	having to do the search.

	* Entry.pm (removeValue): Fixed loop bug.
	(addValue): Ditto.
	(hasValue): Ditto.
	(matchValue): Fixed loop bug, and also missing normalization in
	half of the case statement.
	(rename): Added this new method, to rename attributes.
	(copy): Added, to copy attributes.

	* Merged v1.2.3 with v1.3 branch.

1999-08-06  Kevin McCarthy  <kmccarth@perldap.org>

	* Entry.pm (size): Optimzied for performance.

1999-07-25  Kevin McCarthy  <kmccarth@perldap.org>

	* Conn.pm: Cleanup in use statements, and "use strict".
	(search): Avoid warnings of uninitialized variables.
	(searchURL): Ditto.
	(modifyRDN): Bugfix, we did not update the appropriate DN in the
	self object (very minor...).

	* Entry.pm: Cleanup in use statements, and "use strict".
	(BEGIN): Added this initializer, to use the new LDIF module.
	(STORE): Fixed bug where we would not ignore the internal instance
	variables properly.

	* Entry.pm: Changed back some of the "my" definitions, to make
	sure arrays are properly reset.
	(setValue): Added the _modified_ flag, from Stephen P. Schaefer
	<stephen@networks.com>.
	(addValue): Bug fix, when calling delete, and then
	addValue(). From Stephen P. Schaefer as well.

	work as expected.

1999-03-09  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com>

	* Entry.pm: Tons of changes to handling the save/modified/deleted
	attribute values.
	(DESTROY): Added this destructor again, this time it does seem to

	* Entry.pm (unRemove): Bug fix, this was terribly horked, please
	let's try it to make sure it works...

	member value... Sigh.

1999-03-05  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com>

	* Entry.pm (DELETE): We now handle the event that someone tries to
	delete an internal attribute.

	* Conn.pm (update): Bug: We forgot to test for existance of
	"_save_" before trying to loop over it.

1999-02-28  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com>

	* Entry.pm (matchValue): Added support for the normalization,

	change.

1999-01-06  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com>

	* Conn.pm (nextEntry): Fixed (tried to fix...) the bug with
	missing attributes. I hope this will work, at a minimum I'm sure
	it won't hurt. The idea is to keep the case on the attribute type
	when requesting the values_len().

1999-01-11  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com>

	(getDN): Ditto.

1998-12-31  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com>

	* Entry.pm (DESTROY): Added this method, don't know if it actually

	avoide calling the TIEHASH methods.
	(update): Ditto.
	(ALL): Clean out some "my" definitions.

	* Entry.pm (unRemove): New function, to undo remove opertaions on
	an attribute.

	* Entry.pm (FIRSTKEY): Modified to honor the oc_order.
	(NEXTKEY): Ditto.
	(markModified): Made as an alias for attrModified().

	* Conn.pm (nextEntry): Added code to handle internal counters for
	number of attributes in oc_order. This is used/needed for the
	FIRSTKEY and NEXTKEY methods in the Entry/Tie::Hash object.

	* Entry.pm (isAttr): New method, to make sure an attribute name
	really is a valid LDAP attribute.
	(FIRSTKEY): Now we'll handle each() and keys() properly, whooohoo!

	echo what options it's setting.
	It will now croak() if the SDK dir specified doesn't exist.

	* INSTALL: Updated to reflect new v1.1 stuff. Added links to the
	FAQ.

	* README: Ditto. Also changed some of the binary install
	information, which might not be useful anyways...

	defined().

	* Utils.pm (ldapArgs): Bug fix, we used the wrong option for the

	"external" DN as an argument, if supplied.

1998-08-02  Leif Hedstrom  <leif@netscape.com>

	* Conn.pm (getErrorCode): Now takes two optional arguments, to
	return the match string, and extra error string. Note that these
	two arguments are pointers to strings!

	* API.xs(ldap_get_lderrno): Fixed this function, at least it seems
	to work now...

	* Conn.pm (getLD): Added this function, convenient way to get the
