Use icalproperty_get_icalproperty_name() -instead. - -icalcomponent_get_span() is deprecated in this release -because it does not handle recurring events. See -icalcomponent_foreach_recurrence() for an alternate -interface. - -The icalproperty_remove_parameter() call is deprecated -because it improperly deals with extended parameters. -See icalproperty_remove_parameter_by_kind() for a -compatible call. - -Code that deals with the TRANSPARENT property now -uses enumeration values to get/set values instead of -strings. - -The code for dealing with icalsets was overhauled. You -will want to use the common icalset_* routines -directly instead of calling into the icalfileset_* or -icaldirset_* routines. - -A number of routines now expect to be called with -const arguments. A number of routines now -return pointers to const data. - - -**** New Features **** - -Major cleanup of the time-handling routines. New API is -available that deals with timezones much more cleanly. - -The regression routines in src/test are much cleaner. -Test runs summarize which tests fail and do not -immediately abort() like the old set of tests. A -number of old, commented tests were resurrected. - -C++ Interface: New libraries libical_cxx.la and libicalss_cxx.la -are build when you configure with the --enable-cxx option. - -Java Interface: A JNI interface to libical is build when -you configure with the --enable-java option. - -Most of libical is now reentrant and thread safe. The Lex/Yacc -query parser is pre-built with flex 2.5.8 and bison 1.34. To -rebuild these files you will need to specify the --with-devel -option. The --enable-reentrant option also adds the -D_REENTRANT -flag for systems that require it. The build system attempts to -add the pthread libraries to support a thread safe memory allocator -and thread-safe error handling. - -A new storage mechanism for Berkeley DB 4.0 was contributed -by Critical Path. Specify the --with-bdb4 and --with-bdb4-dir -options to enable. - -Embedded code comments are slowly being migrated to be -doxygen compliant. See http://www.doxygen.org/ for -more on this wonderful tool. - -The code should now compile with non-gcc compilers. Certain -parts of the autogenerated code were causing problems. The -code base has also been ported to the windows Visual C -environment. - - -Version 0.23, 26 Mar 01 ( cvs tag libical-0-23 ) ------------------------------------------------- - -**** Incompatibilities with previous versions **** - -icalparameter_new_rsvp -icalparameter_get_rsvp -icalparameter_set_rsvp - - These routines now take and return ICAL_RSVP_TRUE and - ICAL_RSVP_FALSE instead of 0 and 1 - -icalenum_*_to_* - - These routines have been moved to icalproperty, icalparameter - or icalvalue - - - -Python interface: An alpha level python interface is available in -src/python. - -Perl interface: A pre-alpha level interface is available in -src/Net-ICal-Libical - -Code Autogeneration: Converted all of the important files in -design-data/ to .csv files and improved the code that is generated -from them. Now all of the enumerations for property, parameters and -values are generated from thes files, as are the string -representations for the enumerations. You can add a new property or -parameter to the system simply by adding a line to the appropriate -file in design-data/ - -Recurrences: Improved the recurrence code by fixing bugs in MONTHLY -recurrences and completely re-implementing expand_year_days() for -YEARLY recurrences. Hubert V's aided in testing. - -Build system: JP Rosevear made several improvements to the build -system. Now checking out the code from cvs should give to a complete -but minimal distribution, without any of the autognerated files. - -Interface changes: Nearly all of the icalenum routines for converting -between strings and enumerations have been moved out of icalenum into -icalproperty, icalparameter and icalvalue. This means that their names -have changed, although #defines have been added to icalenum.h to map -back to the old names. - -Added src/libical/icllangbind.c that has some functions to make it -easier to bind libical to other languages. - - -Version 0.22, 15 Jan 01 ( cvs tag libical-0-22) ----------------------------------------------- - -Many improvements to the time routines in icaltime.c. I think that -they actually make sense now. Note that there is an interface change -with icaltime_from_timet() -- I removed the is_utc parameter, since -all timet values are in UTC. Use icaltime_from_int() if you really -want the old interface - -Major improvements to icalfileset. icalfileset_select now works and so -does file locking. - -Minor revision to the documentation, but it does include a new section -on file storage ( icalfileset ) and time ( icaltime.c) - -Lots of bug fixes and small patches. - -I improved the regression test in src/test/regression.c. It now have -command line switches to select specific tests ( undocumentated, of -course ) and more of the tests include asserts, so you can just run it -without looking at the output. If the test runs without crashing, it -is mostly OK. - - - -Version 0.21, 20 Nov 00 ( cvs tag libical-0-21) ----------------------------------------------- - - * icalmessage.c Many routines to create new ical messages. - - * icalspanlist.c Code to generate a list of the busy time f the - VEVENTS in a set. Also includes routiens to generate free and busy - lists from the spanlist, and to find the next free time after a - given time. - - * icalvalue.c The STATUS property now has its own value type, - STATUS, which holds the enumeration icalproperty_status. - - * icalrestriction.c Added more restrictions. Now handles mutual - and exclusive consitions, and checks for the reight values in - STATUS properties - - * icaltypes.c Added routine to create durationtype from string: - icaldurationtype_from_string - - - * icalcomponet.c Add sever get/set convienience routines to access - and manipulate common component propoerties from the component - interface. This eliminates the need to create a lot of temporary - variables if you just want to change the start time of and event. - - - * icalcomponent.c Added new routines to icalcomponent: - _get_span -- returns the start and end times of the event in UTC - _get_first_real_component -- return ref to VTODO, VEVENT or VJOURNAL - - * icalspanlist.c Added new class, icalspanlist, that generates a - list of alternating busy and free times from an icalset. The class - includes routines to gnerate rfc2445 busy and free lists, and to - get the next avaliable busy or free time after a given time. - - -Version 0.20D 3 Nov 00 ------------------------ - -Many miscelaneous tweaks to the build system - -More work to icalclassify. - -Aded routines to icaltime.c to convert to and from specific timezones -in Olsen format ("America/Los_Angeles") - - -Version 0.20 7 Sept 00 (cvs tag libical-0-20 ) ----------------------------------------------- - -Addedd icalclassify() which looks at a message and determine how to -process it. - -Misc bug fixes and tweaks. - -Version 0.19 6 August 00 (cvs tag libical-0-19) ------------------------------------------------ - -Created a MIME parser in icalmime.c. This will take any complex MIME -encapsulated message and return an icalcomponent with the same -structure. Each MIME part is represented by a component of type -X-LIC-MIMEPART. - -Added MIME partsing to stow.c - -Added external iterators to icalcomponent. See test_iterators() in -test/regression.c - -Refactored icalcluster and icalstore into icalset, icalfileset and -icaldirset, which have a pseudo inheritance relationship between them. - -Fixed more memory leaks. - -Version 0.18a 10 June 00 ( cvs tag libical-0-18a ) ------------------------------------------------ - -Did the final tweaks to stow.c, a program to recieve and store iMIP -messages. - - -Version 0.18 10 June 00 ( cvs tag libical-0-18 ) ------------------------------------------------ - -Added libicalvcal, which includes the Versit code for parsing vCal -files and a routine (icalvcal_convert() ) that converts a vCal object -to an iCal object. The test program is src/test/testvcal. - -Added marginally functional recurrence code. The curent code does not -handle all of the examples in rfc2445 ( which are extracted in -test-data/recur.txt ) but it can do all of the obvious cases. See the -test program in src/test/recur.c for an example. In particular, the -code cannot handle the integer values in BYDAY, nor negative integers -in BYMONTH or BYMONTHDAY. It also cannot handle BYSETPOS. - -Moved some code to the examples directory and improved the comments. - -Did a little more work on the documentation in the doc directory. The -documentation is in LyX source, but there is a text version in -UsingLibical.txt - - -Version 0.17 15 May 00 (cvs tag libical-0-17 ) ---------------------------------------------- - -Fixed two bugs that added extraneous '/' to test values - -Fixed type in internal string for the COUNTER method - -Eliminated a memory leak in icalparser.c - - -Version 0.16a 29 April 00 ----------------------------------------------- - -Fixed bug in icalvalue_new_from_string that caused METHOD value to -choke on non standard input. - -Fixed a memory leak in icalparser_add_line -- failed to free 'line' - - -Version 0.16 5 April 00 ( cvs tag libical-0-16) ----------------------------------------------- - -Now using automake. - -Substantial changes to the parser. New interfaces let you parser -multiple components from a single stream by feading the parser object -one line at a time. - -Added a STRING value type. this type is like TEXT, but does not -backslash magic characters. It is used in PRODID and REQUEST-STATUS, -where the '/' and ';' are literal. - -Added several convience functions for REQUEST-STATUS to icalenums.c - -Addedd a routine to icalcomponent to convert X-LIC errors to -REQUEST-STATUS return values. - -Version 0.15a 5 Mar 00 (cvs tag libical-0-15a) ---------------------- - -Experimented with CVS - -Fixed icalvalue_set_text to convert escaped characters into the proper -values. - -Other minor code tweaks. - - -Version 0.15 7 Feb 00 ---------------------- - -Split the storage classess ( icalstore, icalcluster, icalcalendar ) -into a seperate library, libicalss - -Implemented restriction checking in file icalrestrictions.c. The -checking is not complete, but can handle the bulk of the restrictions -described in RFC 2446. - -Created a new value type, METHOD. Changed METHOD property to use the -new value. The METHOD value uses an enumeration. - - -Version 0.14b -------------- - -Implemented parsing of RECUR values, although it does not handle BYDAY -specs with numbers. - -Fixed error in icalparser_next_line that mangled lines longer than the -temp buffer (1024 chars.) The temp buffer is now 80 chars, and it can -handle (apparently) arbitrary length lines - -Fixed severe brokenness in a value, but I forgot which one. - -Cleaned cruft out of the distribution, so the tarfile is smaller. - - -Version 0.14a 14 Jan 00 ------------------------ - -Fixed bug in ROLE parameter -- missing '-' in the text of allowed values - -Fixed bug in X-parameters - -Version 0.14 11 Jan 00 ----------------------- - -Fixed wrong value type for TRIGGER property - -Added Calendar object. Calendar is an aggregate of two stores and two -clusters, and can store all of the inforamation associated with a -calendar. - -icalcomponent_add_property and icalcomponent_add_component will -complain if you try to add a component or property that is already -part of an other component. The *_free routines wil complain if you try -to free a linked component or property. - -More improvements to error handling. - -Parser is much more robust. - -Minor memory enhancements. - -Regression test runs without memory leaks. - -Version 0.13d 21Dec99 ---------------------- - -Seperated perl interface and library - -Added autoconf support - -Scripts that generate derived properties, values and parameters now -change source and header files inline. - -Changed icalstore to cluster all components with DTSTART in a month -into a single file. This should reduce number of file accesses by a -factor of 60. - -Ran code through Purify and fixed memory leaks. - - -Version 0.13 16Nov99 ---------------------- - -Yet more bug fixes! Yeah! - -Added better error handling. The Parser inserts X-LIC-*ERROR -properties to warn of parsing errors. - -The imip source/sink programs in /src/imip is demonstrably functional. - -Version 0.12b 17Oct99 ---------------------- - -More bug fixes, particularily in parse from string routines - -ICal::Store is mostly functional - -This is version is a checkpoint, not a release. - -Version 0.12a 10Oct99 ---------------------- - -Expanded perl interface: - Added 1/2 of Store module - Fixed bugs - Implemeted get_{first,next}_property - -Extended C interface - Made get_{first,next}_property work properly - Fixed bugs - - -This is version is a checkpoint, not a release. - -Version 0.12 27Aug99 --------------------- - -Added a rudimentatry perl interface - -This is version is a checkpoint, not a release. - - -Version 0.11 11Aug99 --------------------- - -Eliminated most use of flex/bison -- all parsing, except for the -values, is done in C. - -Cleaned up memory leaks. Purify claims that I got them all. - -Moved all derived component/prop/param/value code ( in .inc / .h -files) into main files ( icalcomponent.{c,h}, icalproperty.{c,h}, etc/ -) - -Implemented *_clone routines. - -Fixed a lot of bugs. - -Implemented more value types. Still unimplemeneted are BINARY and RECUR - -Included MacOS/Code Warior files from Graham Davison - - -Version 0.10 8Jul99 -------------------- - -Eliminated shift/reduce and reduce/reduce conflicts in the parser. -This version is almost feature complete -- it has the basic structure -for all of the library's functionality, and it will only require -implementing procedure shells and fixing bugs. I think that all of the -hard work is done... - -Version 0.09a,b 3,7 Jul99 -------------------------- - -Various improvements to the parser, added some functionality. The parser code -is mostly complete, and should be fully functional, except for a horde of -bugs.
