Hey Emacs, this is -*- outline -*- mode!
|
|
|
|
* ABI's to break:
|
|
** Currently none.
|
|
|
|
* 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 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.
|
|
|
|
* Documentation
|
|
** Add note about GPGME clearing out pointer return values.
|
|
** validity/trust
|
|
|
|
* Engines
|
|
** 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).
|
|
** GnuPG
|
|
*** For pipemode, make sure to release the pipemode callback data object.
|
|
Note, pipemode will eventually be replaced by an Assuan interface to gpg.
|
|
|
|
* Operations
|
|
** Passphrase callback should not copy password. !!!
|
|
** Export status handler need much more work. !!!
|
|
** Import should return a useful error when one happened.
|
|
** Genkey should return something more useful than General_Error.
|
|
** Factor out common code in _op_*_start functions.
|
|
** Add ATTR to return the number of subkeys or uids.
|
|
** "When returning a GpgmeKey GPGME_ATTR_COMMENT attribute, characters
|
|
like ":" are not un-escaped, they are returned as \x3a" Bug
|
|
reported by Stephane Corthesy.
|
|
|
|
* 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_rewind for invalid types.
|
|
*** Test gpgme_data_read's readable feature.
|
|
|
|
* 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).
