General:
+22Apr06
+- Integrate most of the MinGW changes -- more to do.
+21Apr06
+- Implement using pg_config for finding PostgreSQL files.
+ Fixes bug #600. Patch supplied by user.
+- Remove -t option from mktemp in mtx_changer.in and use
+ working directory. Fixes bug #578.
+- Update job start time after the any run before job so that
+ files created by the script are only backed up once. Fixes
+ bug #599.
+- Strip trailing newline only from filenames entered in
+ the restore command when reading a file. This permits
+ the user to enter filenames with trailing spaces. Fixes
+ bug #549. The user supplied a patch that I modified slightly.
+- Use the most recent time (st_mtime, st_ctime) in the dir
+ command in restore. This gives the user a better idea of what
+ the newest file really is. This fixes bug #574. The fix
+ was suggested by the user.
+- Implement a compatible version of base64. This permits external
+ programs to duplicate Bacula's base64 algorithm using standard
+ routines. This fixes bugs #296, and 565. Patch submitted by
+ author of bug #565.
+ ================= Note ========================
+ Previous Signatures stored in the database are no longer
+ compatible with this. The main downside is for Verify jobs,
+ and doing an InitCatalog run will fix the problem. Also, the
+ authentication between the deamons is changed, so all daemons
+ must be simultaneously upgraded.
+ ==============================================
+ If you don't like this fix, set:
+ const bool compatible = true;
+ to
+ const bool compatible = false;
+ in src/lib/base64.c
+20Apr06
+- Ensure that DB signature is never NULL.
+- Ensure that DB table names are not translated.
+- Fix scheduler to handle time skew (eg daylight savings).
+- Fix scheduler to use lock_jobs() to avoid most problems
+ with reload. Window is now milliseconds.
+19Apr06
+- Apply patch from Christopher Hull
+ - Allow multiple connections to database with different
+ parameters.
+ - Invalidate the scheduler when doing a reload. Fixes seg
+ fault, but still 60 second window.
+ - Additional info in Reschedule message.
+ - Use set_jcr_job_status() everywhere to prevent loss of
+ cancel, error.
+ - Display peer IP in FD if error from connecting DIR.
+ - Don't increment file count for DIRBEGIN.
+ - Replace illegal characters in Win32 filename by _.
+ - Add SE_CREATE_PERMANENT_NAME privilege in Win32.
+ - Hash hard link filenames rather than linked list.
+ - Fix for security failure in chdir on Win32.
+ - Add CreateDirectoryA/W win32 API entry points.
+- Add /silent option to Win32 FD for Install/Remove service.
+- Always print Heap statistics in FD.
+18Apr06
+- Remove the -f option from the chown in Makefile.in for more
+ portability.
+- Change setting the group in Makefile.in to use chgrp for
+ more portability.
+- Implement a write_store and read_store to replace
+ dirstore in reserve.c
+- Implement a Bacula read/write lock for Python rather
+ than using the Python lock to avoid recursive problems.
+- Correct the uninstall directory names in filed/Makefile.in
+ as reported by a user.
+17Apr06
+- Correct some problems with database creation (new tables).
+- Replace a bunch of old 0x%x by %p.
+- Get first cut of Migration with Job selection working.
+16Apr06

+ dird_conf.c -- bug reported by Robert Nelson.
+15Apr06
+- Correct Makefile bug found by Dan Langille.
+14Apr06
+- Correct Makefile for Solaris /bin/sh
+- Correct mtx-changer.in for Solaris /bin/sh
+- Abort if a conf resource does not have a Name =
+12Apr06
+- Change the name of the regex program to bregex.
+- Add the bwild program to the tools directory. It is similar
+ to the bregex program.
+- Implement create bregex.h and bregex.c in src/lib from the
+ Python regexp program.
+- Use the new bregex.c to implement Regex expressions on Win32.
+11Apr06
+- More work on migration.
+- Implement wild program in tools directory for testing
+ wild-cards. Almost identical to the regex program.
+- Up port VSS single thread locking code.
+- Replace N_(..) by NT_(...) to inhibit translation of
+ commands.
+- Modify Makefile to change the permissions on Working Directory
+ to 770 if the directory is created.
+- Do not fail the Makefile if changing the permissions or
+ owner/group on WorkingDir fails.
+- Remove early selection of Scratch Volumes in the recycling
+ algorithm.
+- Correct the old recycling algorithm so that Scratch Volumes
+ are selected when looking for a Volume in the changer.
+- Correct a typo in the Verify SQL reported by Joe Park.
+10Apr06
+- Remove automatic case folding on Windows FDs. You must
+ explictly use the 'Ignore Case = yes' option.
+- Remove the code added to 1.38.6 and 1.38.7 that pulls a
+ scratch volume in an Autochanger early in the 'recycling'
+ algorithm.
+09Apr06
+- Make weof() and clrerror() methods of class DEVICE.
+08Apr06
+- Tweak license to include Microsoft restrictions.
+- Move mysql.reconnect to after real_connect(). Thanks to
+ Frank Sweetser for the patch.

+ unless the string is quoted.
+- Apply Eric's patch to ua_label.c so that daemon protocol
+ is not translated.
+- Add NT_ definition for strings that should not be translated.
+- Apply NT_() to ua_label.c
+
+- Remove timed wait for VSS on Win2K3 as it is not yet
+ implemented.
+- Correct bacula.in script to reference bacula-ctl-xx in the
+ sysconfig directory rather than the bin directory.
+26Mar06
+- Fix a long standing bug in the bacula start/stop scripts.
+- Attempt to add the new bacula-ctl-* files to the rpm.
+- Switch to using typeof() for list traversing to avoid
+ as many FC5 g++ compiler warnings as possible.
+25Mar06
+- Split the bacula start/start script into four files:
+ bacula -- starts and stops calling other scripts
+ bacula-ctl-dir -- starts/stops the director
+ bacula-ctl-fd -- starts/stops the File daemon
+ bacula-ctl-sd -- starts/stops the Storage daemon
+24Mar06

+- Correct editing of JobId from int to int64 in fd_cmds.c
+- Eliminate FileSet name race with bash_spaces() and multiple
+ threads by bashing in a local.

+ are simultaneously writing at the end of a tape.

+ possible non-release of reservation_lock().
+- Suffle lock order in reserve to avoid deadlock between
+ reservation lock and device mutex.
+21Mar06
+- Initialize jcr mutex before first use. Thanks to Thorsten for
+ tracking this down for me !!!! as it broke the Win32 build.
