Hey Emacs, this is -*- outline -*- mode! * ABI's to break: ** Compatibility interfaces that can be removed in future versions: *** gpgme_data_new_from_filepart *** gpgme_data_new_from_file *** gpgme_data_new_with_read_cb *** gpgme_data_rewind *** GPGME_Busy, GPGME_No_Request *** GPGME_No_Passphrase *** GPGME_Invalid_Recipient, GPGME_No_Recipients *** GPGME_No_Passphrase *** gpgme_op_import_ext *** gpgme_get_sig_key *** gpgme_get_sig_ulong_attr *** gpgme_get_sig_string_attr *** GPGME_SIG_STAT_* *** gpgme_get_sig_status *** gpgme_trust_item_release *** gpgme_trust_item_get_string_attr *** gpgme_trust_item_get_ulong_attr *** GpgmeAttr *** GPGME_Invalid_Type, GPGME_Invalid_Mode * Thread support: ** Build thread modules for static linking (which just suck in the desired symbols the hard way). !! * New features: ** notification system We need a simple notification system, probably a simple callback with a string and some optional arguments. This is for example required to notify an application of a changed smartcard, The application can then do whatever is required. There are other usages too. This notfication system should be independent of any contextes of course. ** --learn-code support This might be integrated with import. we still need to work out how to learn a card when gpg and gpgsm have support for smartcards. ** set_locale for thread safe and env independent locale selection. ** How to terminate a pending operation? Something like gpgme_op_reset, but where are you allowed to call it (think callback handlers). Then gpgme_op_*list_end can go. ** Might need a stat() for data objects and use it for length param to gpg. * Documentation ** Document validity and trust issues. * Engines ** Do not create/destroy engines, but create engine and then reset it. Internally the reset operation still spawns a new engine process, but this can be replaced with a reset later. Also, be very sure to release everything properly at a reset and at an error. Think hard about where to guarantee what (ie, what happens if start fails, are the fds unregistered immediately - i think so?) ** Optimize the case where a data object has an underlying fd we can pass directly to the engine. ** Move code common to all engines up from gpg to engine. ** engine operations can return General Error on unknown protocol (it's an internal error, as select_protocol checks already). ** When server mode is implemented properly, more care has to be taken to release all resources on error (for example to free assuan_cmd). * Operations ** Passphrase callback should not copy password. !!! *** If no passphrase cb is installed, status handler is not run even if password is required by crypto engine. !! ** Export status handler need much more work. !!! ** Import should return a useful error when one happened. *** Import does not take notice of NODATA status report. *** When GPGSM does issue IMPORT_OK status reports, make sure to check for them in tests/gpgs m/t-import.c. ** Genkey should return something more useful than General_Error. ** Factor out common code in _op_*_start functions. ** Optimize the file descriptor list, so the number of open fds is always known easily. * Error Values ** Map ASSUAN/GpgSM ERR error values in a better way than is done now. !! ** Verify (and document) if Read_Error, Write_Error, Pipe_Error set errno. * Tests ** Write a fake gpg-agent so that we can supply known passphrases to gpgsm and setup the configuration files to use the agent. Without this we are testing a currently running gpg-agent which is not a clever idea. ! ** t-data *** Test gpgme_data_release_and_get_mem. *** Test gpgme_data_seek for invalid types. * Debug ** Handle malloc and vasprintf errors. But decide first if they should be ignored (and logged with 255?!), or really be assertions. ! * Build suite ** Make sure everything is cleaned correctly (esp. test area).
