+
+Release 1.35.0 08 July 2004:
+- Apply Christopher Hull's const patch for PostgreSQL
+- Add code to block.c to detect if block header is destroyed.
+- Add debug code for memset checking for zeroing 1900-3000 bytes
+ which is what happened to the block headers.
+- If block header is destroyed, read the next block. Probably
+ should return with new status similar to the SHORT block
+ return.
+- Add more debug info to bls for bad blocks.
+- More implementation of DCRs.
+- Eliminate argument passing in SD by using dcr.
+- More int->bool conversions.
+- Add file:block to a number of read/write error messages.
+- More int -> bool conversions.
+- Modify the SD piece by piece to use DCRs everywhere.
+- Cleanup some printout for query command.
+- Fix typo in cats/mysql.c
+- Work on cleaning up tape driver a bit (use bools, better calling
+ sequences).
+- Attempt to fix multi-Volume disk backup. Needs to be tested.
+- Add Regular expressions to FileSet options.
+- Correct configure.in to use ${MAKE} for doing the dependencies.
+- Make MySQL and PostgreSQL try for 30 seconds to connect before
+ giving up.
+- Correct Gnome 1.4 Makefile to build without cats library.
+- Correct a crash reported (with patch) by Jonathan Soong
+ when attempting to backup an ACL on a symlinked file.
+- Fixed an off by one bug in the new resources pointer code.
+ res_head array was one too small.
+- Added Errors to last_job list. This allows detecting jobs
+ that terminated in a warning.
+- Implement setting the Win32 icon to yellow instead of red
+ when the job terminated OK but with warnings.
+- Fix the Win32 makefile and VC project file. The links were
+ not including the Win32 dlls.
+- Delete some old Win32 code that was turned off.
+- Eliminate a few more Win32 compiler warnings.
+- Reduce the output produced by NIS (Win32 install builder).
+- Simplify some of the #ifdefing in compat.h
+- Rewrite spooling error handling when I/O error occurs. It is
+ a bit tricky, requiring to truncate the file so that a despooling
+ will work correctly. Needs to be tested.
+- Make better subroutines for setting up for a new job.
+- Start putting all DB ids on #defines (going to 64 bits).
+- Fix gnome-console Makefile.in to work again.
+- All "level=Incremental/Decremental" to the estimate command. This
+ required some re-arrangement of subroutines at a fairly low level.
+- Apply Piotr Jaworski's patch (patch-r-status.diff) to update the
+ catalog status when a backup job starts running.
+- Add (char*) cast to readline call in console.c for old readlines.
+- Copy Makefile.in from gnome2-console to gnome-console (to eliminate
+ need for cats library).
+- Modify spooling code to handle write error (e.g. spooling disk full)
+ more gracefully. Previously despooling would fail.
+- Reduce casting in smartall.c a bit and add counters for
+ bytes, max_bytes, buffers and max_buffers.
+- Fixed reload algorithm to stack both job end callback and the
+ table id.
+- Fixed the orphaned buffer after reload (job_end_push had to be
+ destroyed.
+- Destroy cond var (jcr->term_wait) only if initialized.
+- Sort the Scheduled Jobs list by start-time, priority.
+- Implement resources on a pointer.
+- Fix Gnome console crash on up/down arrow with no history.
+- Finish first cut of SIGHUP code. To make really work need res
+ on a single pointer rather than in fixed memory.
+- Fix a number of places in query.sql where multiple JobIds are
+ printed (due to JobMedia records).
+- Add new query: List jobs on Volume given Volume name.
+- Correct socket close on Win32 in bnet.c (in addition to compat.cpp).
+ Caused fd leak in Win32 for each connection.
+- Remove vol labeled test in askdir update_volume_info so that non-labeled
+ Volume in catalog can be marked in error.
+- Close socket in SD when connection rejected. Caused fd leaks.
+- Initialize job_start_wait cond variable after every new_jcr() otherwise
+ NetBSD gets error in library when trying to delete it without being inited.
+- Fix typo (9 instead of 0) return status in write_new_volume_label.
+- Fix mount.c to call routine that correctly marks a volume in error.
+- Move code to rewrite volume label to subroutine -- a bit cleaner.
+- Finish implementation and testing of new restore tree code.
+- Implement feedback while tree is loading.
+- Eliminate printing INFO message in UpdateDB (cats) -- it generates
+ "false" error messages.
+- Eliminate some GTK error messages when running the Gnome2 console.
+- Begin restructuring tree.c for inclusion of the binary_insert()
+ routine.
+- Apply Peter Eriksson's lib file order changes in linking for IRIX.
+- Abort configure if Internal is selected as the database.
+- Add testimonials to the Web page
+- Add the bugs list to the Web page "lists".
+- Clarify the English in SuSE and Slackware when SD not running.
+- Applied another extern "C" patch from Peter Eriksson.
+- Fixed a bunch of VC warning messages.
+- Applied the patches sent by Andreas Jellinghaus: build Gnome and
+ wx-console in client-only build if configured; add ./configure option
+ to permit setting of sbin modes -- default is 0745 as before; remove
+ cats library from Gnome console build; remove old version from Gnome
+ About box. Thanks Andreas.
+- Applied Peter Eriksson's const changes to the source code. Thanks Peter.
+- Implemented a binary_insert() method for dlists -- intended to be used
+ in the restore tree routines.
+- Turned on my bsscanf() code, which replaces sscanf() by my routines, which
+ are a subset of sscanf() used by Bacula, but which have known 32/64 bit
+ behavior rather than vendor dependent !@#$%*.
