* The LENGTH argument to gpgme_data_new_from_filepart changed its
type from off_t to the unsigned size_t.
* There is a Texinfo manual documenting the API.
* New interface gpgme_op_trustlist_end() to match
gpgme_op_keylist_end.
* Interface changes relative to the 0.3.0 release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
gpgme_data_new_from_filepart CHANGED: Type of LENGTH is size_t.
gpgme_op_trustlist_next NEW

Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.0 (2001-12-19)
------------------------------------------------
2001-12-18 22:22:18 +00:00
* New interface gpgme_set_protocol() to set the protocol and thus the
crypto engine to be used by the context. Currently, the OpenPGP
and the CMS protocols are supported. They are specified by the new
preprocessor symbols GPGME_PROTOCOL_OpenPGP and GPGME_PROTOCOL_CMS.
A new context uses the OpenPGP engine by default.
* gpgme_get_engine_info() returns information for all crypto engines
compiled into the library. The XML format has changed. To
reliably get the version of a crypto engine, the <version> tag
after the appropriate <protocol> tag has to be looked for.
* New interface gpgme_engine_check_version(), obsoleting
gpgme_check_engine(). Check the version of all engines you are
supporting in your software.
* GpgmeKey lists the user ids in the order as they are returned by
GnuPG, first the primary key with index 0, then the sub-user ids.
* New operation gpgme_op_decrypt_verify() to decrypt and verify
signatures simultaneously.
* The new interface gpgme_op_keylist_end() terminates a pending
keylist operation. A keylist operation is also terminated when
gpgme_op_keylist_next() returns GPGME_EOF.
* GPGME can be compiled without GnuPG being installed (`--with-gpg=PATH'),
cross-compiled, or even compiled without support for GnuPG
(`--without-gpg').
* GPGME can be compiled with support for GpgSM (GnuPG for S/MIME,
`--with-gpgsm=PATH'). It is enabled by default if the `gpgsm' is found
in the path, but it can also be compiled without support for GpgSM
(`--without-gpgsm').
* CryptPlug modules for GPGME are included and can be enabled at
configure time (`--enable-gpgmeplug'). There is one module which
uses the GnuPG engine (`gpgmeplug') and one module which uses the
GpgSM engine (`gpgsmplug').
* Interface changes relative to the latest 0.2.x release:
2001-12-18 22:22:18 +00:00

gpgme_key_get_as_xml CHANGED: Sub-user ids reversed in order.
gpgme_key_get_string_attr CHANGED: User ids reversed in order.
gpgme_key_get_ulong_attr CHANGED: User ids reversed in order.
gpgme_get_engine_info CHANGED: New format, extended content.
gpgme_engine_check_version NEW
gpgme_decrypt_verify_start NEW
gpgme_decrypt_verify NEW

parameter needed for MOSS.
* New functions gpgme_get_armor and gpgme_get_textmode.
* The usual bug fixes and some minor functionality improvements.
* Added a simple encryption component for MS-Windows; however the
build procedure might have some problems.
