Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.1 (unreleased)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a bug in that the fingerprints of subkeys are not available.
|
|
|
|
* Clarified usage of the SECRET flag in key listings. It is now
|
|
reset for stub keys.
|
|
|
|
* Reading signature notations and policy URLs on key signatures is
|
|
supported. They can be found in the new field notations of the
|
|
gpgme_key_sig_t structure. This has to be enabled with the keylist
|
|
mode flag GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_SIG_NOTATIONS.
|
|
|
|
* A new gpgme_free() function solves the problem of using different
|
|
allocators in a single program. This function should now be used
|
|
instead calling free() to release the buffer returned by
|
|
gpgme_data_release_and_get_mem. It is recommended that you always
|
|
do this, but it is only necessary on certain platforms, so backwards
|
|
compatibility is provided. In other words: If free() worked for
|
|
you before, it will keep working.
|
|
|
|
* Interface changes relative to the 1.1.0 release:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
gpgme_key_sig_t EXTENDED: New field notations.
|
|
GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_SIG_NOTATIONS NEW
|

Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.0 (2005-10-01)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* You can now configure the backend engine file name and home
|
|
directory to be used, as default and per context.
|
|
|
|
* Information about the recipients of an encrypted text is now
|
|
available at decryption time.
|
|
|
|
* New status GPGME_STATUS_PLAINTEXT. This is analyzed by the decrypt
|
|
and verify handlers, the information about the plaintext filename,
|
|
if available is made available in the new field file_name of the
|
|
respective result structure.
|
|
|
|
* The code for "automagically detecting the thread library" has been
|
|
removed from libgpgme. It is deprecated since version 0.4.3.
|
|
Since then, you had to link against libgpgme-pthread for
|
|
applications using pthread and libgpgme-pth for applications using
|
|
GNU Pth.
|
|
|
|
The code was removed because it caused compilation problems on
|
|
systems where the pthread.h header from GNU Pth is available in
|
|
addition to the system header (FreeBSD 6 and later for example).
|
|
|
|
* "./autogen.sh --build-w32" does now build gpgme.dll.
|
|
|
|
* [W32] The environment variable GPGME_DEBUG now uses a semicolon as
|
|
delimiter. The standard install directory is used when locating
|
|
gpg or gpgsm before finally falling back to the hardwired name.
|
|
|
|
* There is a new flag for keys and subkeys, is_qualified, which
|
|
indicates if a key can be used for qualified signatures according
|
|
to local government regulations.
|
|
|
|
* You can associate a filename with a data object using the new
|
|
function gpgme_data_set_file_name(). This filename will be stored
|
|
in the output when encrypting or signing the data and will be
|
|
returned when decrypting or verifying the output data.
|
|
|
|
* You can now set notation data at signature creation with the new
|
|
function gpgme_sig_notation_add().
|
|
|

Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.3 (2005-06-20)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Previousy, GPGME would use a default "include certs" of 1. This
|
|
has been changed. Now GPGME will use the crypto backend engines
|
|
default unless you set the value with gpgme_set_include_certs()
|
|
explicitely. A new macro GPGME_INCLUDE_CERTS_DEFAULT can be used
|
|
as a value to explicitely request the new default behaviour.
|
|
|
|
Because the default changes, this is a slight change of the API
|
|
semantics. We consider it to be a bug fix.
|
|
|
|
* A bug which made GPGME hang has been fixed. If you have
|
|
experienced hanging before, please try out this version and let me
|
|
know if you still experience hanging problems.
|
|
|
|

Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.2 (2004-12-28)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|

* Changed the license of the library to the GNU Lesser General Public
|
|
License (LGPL), version 2.1 or later.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.1 (2004-10-22)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Only bug fixes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.0 (2004-09-30)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Version 1.0.0! We are proud to present you with a thoroughly
|
|
tested and stable version of the GPGME library. A big Thank You!
|
|
to all the people who made this possible.
|
|
|
|
The development will be branched into a stable 1.x.y series and the
|
|
head.
|
|
|
|
* The gpgme.m4 macro supports checking the API version. Just prepend
|
|
it to the required version string, separated by a colon. For
|
|
example, this release has the version "1:1.0.0". The last release
|
|
to which this version is (mostly) ABI compatible is "1:0.4.2",
|
|
which is the default required version.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Noteworthy changes in version 0.9.0 (2004-06-08)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* The type gpgme_key_t has now a new field keylist_mode that contains
|
|
the keylist mode that was active at the time the key was retrieved.
|
|
|
|
* The type gpgme_decrypt_result_t has a new field "wrong_key_usage"
|
|
that contains a flag indicating that the key should not have been
|
|
used for encryption.
|
|
|
|
* Verifying a signature of a revoked key gives the correct result now
|
|
(GPG_ERR_CERT_REVOKED error code).
|
|
|
|
* Clarified that the error code GPG_ERR_NO_DATA from the decrypt &
|
|
verify operations still allows you to look at the signature
|
|
verification result.
|
|
|
|
* Clarified that patterns in keylisting operations have an upper
|
|
limit, and thus are not suited to list many keys at once by their
|
|
fingerprint. Also improve the error message if the pattern is too
|
|
long for the CMS protocol to handle.
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
gpgme_key_t EXTENDED: New field keylist_mode.

Noteworthy changes in version 0.4.7 (2004-04-29)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Correctly initialize the fields expired, revoked, invalid, and
|
|
disabled in the gpgme_key_t structures.
|
|
|
|
* A bug fix: The flag wrong_key_usage of gpgme_signature_t was
|
|
accidently of type int instead unsigned int.
|
|
|
|
* Interface changes relative to the 0.4.5 release:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
gpgme_signature_t CHANGED: wrong_key_usage is unsigned int now.
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|

Noteworthy changes in version 0.4.6 (2004-04-06)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
Noteworthy changes in version 0.4.5 (2004-03-07)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* GPGME is now compiled with LFS (large file support) by default.
|
|
This means that _all_ programs using GPGME must be compiled with
|
|
LFS support enabled by default. You can do this easily with
|
|
autoconf, by using the AC_SYS_LARGEFILE macro. Or you can do this
|
|
without autoconf by defining the preprocessor symbol
|
|
_FILE_OFFSET_BITS to 64 (by passing the -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 to
|
|
the C compiler command line, or by defining this preprocessor
|
|
symbol before including any system header files). For more
|
|
details, read the section on LFS in the manual.
|
|
|
|
Up to now, it was undocumented that GPGME was not using LFS.
|
|
But the public interfaces use off_t, and file descriptors are
|
|
exchanged between the application and GPGME. This was an oversight,
|
|
and bound to cause troubles in the future.
|
|
|
|
Writing GPGME as a dual mode library that seamlessly supports LFS
|
|
while keeping backwards compatibility is possible, but does not
|
|
solve the problem: Many applications already expect GPGME to have
|
|
LFS (they are compiled with off_t being a 64bit value). This is true
|
|
in particular for the popular Gtk+ and Qt programs.
|
|
|
|
So, although this is an ABI (but not an API) break, we will not
|
|
change the library version to reflect that. Because the interfaces
|
|
affected are probably not used yet in any GPGME 0.4 based
|
|
application, we don't expect any real failures from this change.
|
|
In fact, applications already using LFS will have some subtle bugs
|
|
fixed.
|
|
|
|
However, if you encounter an application using GPGME 0.4.x that
|
|
does _not_ use LFS by default (off_t is a 32bit value), _and_
|
|
uses at least one of the functions gpgme_data_seek,
|
|
gpgme_data_new_from_filepart, or a gpgme_data_seek_cb_t with
|
|
gpgme_data_new_from_cbs, then indeed this library will be ABI
|
|
incompatible with the program. As said above, we don't believe
|
|
such a program exists. If we are in error, then you have two
|
|
options: As a quick hack, you can configure GPGME with the
|
|
--disable-largefile option. This will revert the change, and GPGME
|
|
will not use LFS. However, GPGME will be incompatible with
|
|
programs that expect GPGME to use LFS. All applications are
|
|
required to use LFS when using GPGME, so this is only good as a
|
|
temporary local work-around.
|
|
|
|
The other option is to change the versioning of the library and
|
|
recompile all applications. We have reserved a special version of
|
|
the library for that, so you can do that without expecting a
|
|
version clash in the future. Furthermore, everyone who does this
|
|
will agree on the version to use (this is important for
|
|
distribution makers). Read the comment in configure.ac (before
|
|
LIBGPGME_LT_AGE) if you want to do this. Please don't do this
|
|
blindly: As stated above, we think it is unlikely this measure is
|
|
needed. Still, it is there if necessary. If in doubt, contact us
|
|
and we will give our advise for your specific situation.
|
|
|
|
* New key listing mode GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_VALIDATE for validation of
|
|
the listed keys.
|
|
|
|
* New interface gpgme_cancel() that can be used to cancel
|
|
asynchronous operations.
|
|
|
|
* Interface changes relative to the 0.4.4 release:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
gpgme_data_seek_cb_t CHANGED: off_t is now a largefile type.
|
|
gpgme_data_seek CHANGED: off_t is now a largefile type.
|
|
gpgme_data_new_from_filepart CHANGED: off_t is now a largefile type.

GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_VALIDATE NEW

gpgme_cancel NEW

|
|
|
|
Noteworthy changes in version 0.4.4 (2004-01-12)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* The member "class" in gpgme_key_sig_t and gpgme_new_signature_t has
|
|
been renamed to "sig_class", to avoid clash with C++ compilers. In
|
|
the C API, the old name "class" has been preserved for backwards
|
|
compatibility, but is deprecated.
|
|
|
|
* Interface changes relative to the 0.4.3 release:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
gpgme_key_sig_t CHANGED: class deprecated, use new sig_class.
|
|
gpgme_new_signature_t CHANGED: class deprecated, use new sig_class.
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Noteworthy changes in version 0.4.3 (2003-10-06)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* libgpgme should not be used for threaded programs anymore. This
|
|
never worked reliably in all cases, because you had to
|
|
be careful about the linking order and libtool wouldn't do that for
|
|
you automatically. Instead, now you have to link against
|
|
libgpgme-pthread for applications using pthread and libgpgme-pth for
|
|
applications using GNU Pth.
|
|
|
|
The old code for automagically detecting the thread library is
|
|
still part of libgpgme, but it is DEPRECATED.
|
|
|
|
* There are new automake macros AM_PATH_GPGME_PTH and
|
|
AM_PATH_GPGME_PTHREAD, which support checking for thread-enabled
|
|
versions of GPGME. They define GPGME_PTH_CFLAGS, GPGME_PTH_LIBS,
|
|
GPGME_PTHREAD_CFLAGS and GPGME_PTHREAD_LIBS respectively. These
|
|
variables of course also include the configuration for the thread
|
|
package itself. Alternatively, use libtool.
|
|
|
|
* gpgme_strerror_r as a thread safe variant of gpgme_strerror was
|
|
added.
|
|
|
|
* gpgme-config doesn't support setting the prefix or exec prefix
|
|
anymore. I don't think it ever worked correctly, and it seems to
|
|
be pointless.
|
|
|
|
* gpgme_get_key fails with GPG_ERR_AMBIGUOUS_NAME if the key ID
|
|
provided was not unique, instead returning the first matching key.
|
|
|
|
* gpgme_key_t and gpgme_subkey_t have a new field, can_authenticate,
|
|
that indicates if the key can be used for authentication.
|
|
|
|
* gpgme_signature_t's status field is now correctly set to an error
|
|
with error code GPG_ERR_NO_PUBKEY if public key is not found.
|
|
|
|
* gpgme_new_signature_t's class field is now an unsigned int, rather
|
|
than an unsigned long (the old class field is preserved for
|
|
backwards compatibility).
|
|
|
|
* A new function gpgme_set_locale() is provided to allow configuring
|
|
the locale for the crypto backend. This is necessary for text
|
|
terminals so that programs like the pinentry can be started with
|
|
the right locale settings for the terminal the application is running
|
|
on, in case the terminal has different settings than the system
|
|
default (for example, if it is a remote terminal). You are highly
|
|
recommended to call the following functions directly after
|
|
gpgme_check_version:
|
|
|
|
#include <locale.h>
|
|
|
|
setlocale (LC_ALL, "");
|
|
gpgme_set_locale (NULL, LC_CTYPE, setlocale (LC_CTYPE, NULL));
|
|
gpgme_set_locale (NULL, LC_MESSAGES, setlocale (LC_MESSAGES, NULL));
|
|
|
|
GPGME can not do this for you, as setlocale is not thread safe, and
|
|
there is no alternative.
|
|
|
|
* The signal action for SIGPIPE is now set to SIG_IGN by
|
|
gpgme_check_version, instead the first time a crypto engine is
|
|
started (which is not well defined).
|
|
|
|
* In the output of gpgme_hash_algo_name, change RMD160 to RIPEMD160,
|
|
TIGER to TIGER192, CRC32-RFC1510 to CRC32RFC1510, and CRC24-RFC2440
|
|
to CRC24RFC2440. For now, these strings can be used as the MIC
|
|
parameter for PGP/MIME (if appropriately modified).
|
|
|
|
* Interface changes relative to the 0.4.2 release:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
gpgme_strerror_t NEW
|
|
gpgme_get_key CHANGED: Fails correctly if key ID not unique.
|
|
gpgme_key_t EXTENDED: New field can_authenticate.
|
|
gpgme_subkey_t EXTENDED: New field can_authenticate.
|
|
gpgme_new_signature_t CHANGED: New type for class field.
|
|
gpgme_set_locale NEW
|
|
gpgme_hash_algo_name CHANGED: Slight adjustment of algo names.

Noteworthy changes in version 0.4.2 (2003-07-30)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Allow gpg-error to be in non-standard place when linking the test suite.
|
|
|
|
* Configure will fail now if gpg-error can not be found.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed initialized memory backed data objects for writing, which
|
|
caused the test program to crash (but only on Mac OS, surprisingly).
|
|
|
|
* Eliminate use of C99 constructs.
|
|
|
|
* Small improvements to the manual.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Noteworthy changes in version 0.4.1 (2003-06-06)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
This is the release that 0.4.0 should have been. There are many
|
|
interface changes, please see below for the details. The changes are
|
|
sometimes the result of new functionality, but more often express a
|
|
paradigm shift. Others are an overdue cleanup to get GPGME in line
|
|
with the GNU coding standards and to make the interface more
|
|
self-consistent. Here is an overview on the changes:
|
|
|
|
All types have been renamed to conform to the GNU coding standards,
|
|
most of the time by keeping the whole name in lowercase and inserting
|
|
underscores between words.
|
|
|
|
All operations consistently only accept input parameters in their
|
|
invocation function, and return only an error code directly. Further
|
|
information about the result of the operation has to be retrieved
|
|
afterwards by calling one of the result functions. This unifies the
|
|
synchronous and the asynchronous interface.
|
|
|
|
The error values have been completely replaced by a more
|
|
sophisticated model that allows GPGME to transparently and accurately
|
|
report all errors from the other GnuPG components, irregardless of
|
|
process boundaries. This is achieved by using the library
|
|
libgpg-errors, which is shared by all GnuPG components. This library
|
|
is now required for GPGME.
|
|
|
|
The results of all operations are now provided by pointers to C
|
|
structs rather than by XML structs or in other ways.
|
|
|
|
Objects which used to be opaque (for example a key) are now pointers
|
|
to accessible structs, so no accessor functions are necessary.
|
|
|
|
Backward compatibility is provided where it was possible without too
|
|
much effort and did not collide with the overall sanitization effort.
|
|
However, this is only for ease of transition. NO DEPRECATED FUNCTION
|
|
OR DATA TYPE IS CONSIDERED A PART OF THE API OR ABI AND WILL BE
|
|
DROPPED IN THE FUTURE WITHOUT CHANGING THE SONAME OF THE LIBRARY.
|
|
Recommendations how to replace deprecated or removed functionality
|
|
can be found within the description of each change.
|
|
|
|
What follows are all changes to the interface and behaviour of GPGME
|
|
in detail.
|
|
|
|
* If gpgme.h is included in sources compiled by GCC 3.1 or later,
|
|
deprecated attributes will warn about use of obsolete functions and
|
|
type definitions. You can suppress these warnings by passing
|
|
-Wno-deprecated-declarations to the gcc command.
|
|
|
|
* The following types have been renamed. The old types are still
|
|
available as aliases, but they are deprecated now:

GpgmeStatusCode gpgme_status_code_t
|
|
|
|
* gpgme_error_t is now identical to gpg_error_t, the error type
|
|
provided by libgpg-error. More about using libgpg-error with GPGME
|
|
can be found in the manual. All error symbols have been removed!
|
|
|
|
* All functions and types in libgpg-error have been wrapped in GPGME.
|
|
The new types are gpgme_err_code_t and gpgme_err_source_t. The new
|
|
functions are gpgme_err_code, gpgme_err_source, gpgme_error,
|
|
gpgme_err_make, gpgme_error_from_errno, gpgme_err_make_from_errno,
|
|
gpgme_err_code_from_errno, gpgme_err_code_to_errno,
|
|
gpgme_strsource.
|
|
|
|
* GPGME_ATTR_IS_SECRET is not anymore representable as a string.
|
|
|
|
* GnuPG 1.2.2 is required. The progress callback is now also invoked
|
|
for encrypt, sign, encrypt-sign, decrypt, verify, and
|
|
decrypt-verify operations. For verify operations on detached
|
|
signatures, the progress callback is invoked for both the detached
|
|
signature and the plaintext message, though.
|
|
|
|
* gpgme_passphrase_cb_t has been changed to not provide a complete
|
|
description, but the UID hint, passphrase info and a flag
|
|
indicating if this is a repeated attempt individually, so the user
|
|
can compose his own description from this information.
|
|
|
|
The passphrase is not returned as a C string, but must be written
|
|
to a file descriptor directly. This allows for secure passphrase
|
|
entries.
|
|
|
|
The return type has been changed to gpgme_error_t value. This
|
|
allowed to remove the gpgme_cancel function; just return
|
|
the error code GPG_ERR_CANCELED in the passphrase callback directly.
|
|
|
|
* gpgme_edit_cb_t has been changed to take a file descriptor argument.
|
|
The user is expected to write the response to the file descriptor,
|
|
followed by a newline.
|
|
|
|
* The recipients interface has been removed. Instead, you use
|
|
NULL-terminated lists of keys for specifying the recipients of an
|
|
encryption operation. Use the new encryption flag
|
|
GPGME_ENCRYPT_ALWAYS_TRUST if you want to override the validity of
|
|
the keys (but note that in general this is not a good idea).
|
|
|
|
This change has been made to the prototypes of gpgme_op_encrypt,
|
|
gpgme_op_encrypt_start, gpgme_op_encrypt_sign and
|
|
gpgme_op_encrypt_sign_start.
|
|
|
|
The export interface has been changed to use pattern strings like
|
|
the keylist interface. Thus, new functions gpgme_op_export_ext and
|
|
gpgme_op_export_ext_start have been added as well. Now the
|
|
prototypes of gpgme_op_export_start and gpgme_op_export finally
|
|
make sense.
|
|
|
|
* gpgme_op_verify and gpgme_op_decrypt_verify don't return a status
|
|
summary anymore. Use gpgme_get_sig_status to retrieve the individual
|
|
stati.
|
|
|
|
* gpgme_io_cb_t changed from a void function to a function returning
|
|
a gpgme_error_t value. However, it will always return 0, so you
|
|
can safely ignore the return value.
|
|
|
|
* A new I/O callback event GPGME_EVENT_START has been added. The new
|
|
requirement is that you must wait until this event until you are
|
|
allowed to call the I/O callback handlers previously registered for
|
|
this context operation. Calling I/O callback functions for this
|
|
context operation before the start event happened is unsafe because
|
|
it can lead to race conditions in a multi-threaded environment.
|
|
|
|
* The idle function feature has been removed. It was not precisely
|
|
defined in a multi-threaded environment and is obsoleted by the
|
|
user I/O callback functions. If you still need a simple way to
|
|
call something while waiting on one or multiple asynchronous
|
|
operations to complete, don't set the HANG flag in gpgme_wait (note
|
|
that this will return to your program more often than the idle
|
|
function did).
|
|
|
|
* gpgme_wait can return NULL even if hang is true, if an error
|
|
occurs. In that case *status contains the error code.
|
|
|
|
* gpgme_get_engine_info was radically changed. Instead an XML
|
|
string, an info structure of the new type gpgme_engine_info_t is
|
|
returned. This makes it easier and more robust to evaluate the
|
|
information in an application.
|
|
|
|
* The new function gpgme_get_protocol_name can be used to convert a
|
|
gpgme_protocol_t value into a string.
|
|
|
|
* The status of a context operation is not checked anymore. Starting
|
|
a new operation will silently cancel the previous one. Calling a
|
|
function that requires you to have started an operation before without
|
|
doing so is undefined.
|
|
|
|
* The FPR argument to gpgme_op_genkey was removed. Instead, use the
|
|
gpgme_op_genkey_result function to retrieve a gpgme_genkey_result_t
|
|
pointer to a structure which contains the fingerprint. This also
|
|
works with gpgme_op_genkey_start. The structure also provides
|
|
other information about the generated keys.
|
|
|
|
So, instead:
|
|
|
|
char *fpr;
|
|
err = gpgme_op_genkey (ctx, NULL, NULL, &fpr);
|
|
if (!err && fpr)
|
|
printf ("%s\n", fpr);
|
|
|
|
you should now do:
|
|
|
|
gpgme_genkey_result_t result;
|
|
err = gpgme_op_genkey (ctx, NULL, NULL);
|
|
if (!err)
|
|
{
|
|
result = gpgme_op_genkey_result (ctx);
|
|
if (result->fpr)
|
|
printf ("%s\n", result->fpr);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
* The new gpgme_op_import_result function provides detailed
|
|
information about the result of an import operation in
|
|
gpgme_import_result_t and gpgme_import_status_t objects.
|
|
Thus, the gpgme_op_import_ext variant is deprecated.
|
|
|
|
* The new gpgme_op_sign_result function provides detailed information
|
|
about the result of a signing operation in gpgme_sign_result_t,
|
|
gpgme_invalid_key_t and gpgme_new_signature_t objects.
|
|
|
|
* The new gpgme_op_encrypt_result function provides detailed
|
|
information about the result of an encryption operation in
|
|
a GpgmeEncryptResult object.
|
|
|
|
* The new gpgme_op_decrypt_result function provides detailed
|
|
information about the result of a decryption operation in
|
|
a GpgmeDecryptResult object.
|
|
|
|
* The new gpgme_op_verify_result function provides detailed
|
|
information about the result of an verify operation in
|
|
a GpgmeVerifyResult object. Because of this, the GPGME_SIG_STAT_*
|
|
values, gpgme_get_sig_status, gpgme_get_sig_ulong_attr,
|
|
gpgme_get_sig_string_attr and gpgme_get_sig_key are now deprecated,
|
|
and gpgme_get_notation is removed.
|
|
|
|
* GpgmeTrustItem objects have now directly accessible data, so the
|
|
gpgme_trust_item_get_string_attr and gpgme_trust_item_get_ulong_attr
|
|
accessor functions are deprecated. Also, reference counting is
|
|
available through gpgme_trust_item_ref and gpgme_trust_item_unref
|
|
(the gpgme_trust_item_release alias for the latter is deprecated).
|
|
|
|
* Keys are not cached internally anymore, so the force_update argument
|
|
to gpgme_get_key has been removed.
|
|
|
|
* GpgmeKey objects have now directly accessible data so the
|
|
gpgme_key_get_string_attr, gpgme_key_get_ulong_attr,
|
|
gpgme_key_sig_get_string_attr and gpgme_key_sig_get_ulong_attr
|
|
functions are deprecated. Also, gpgme_key_release is now
|
|
deprecated. The gpgme_key_get_as_xml function has been dropped.
|
|
|
|
* Because all interfaces using attributes are deprecated, the
|
|
GpgmeAttr data type is also deprecated.
|
|
|
|
* The new gpgme_op_keylist_result function provides detailed
|
|
information about the result of a key listing operation in
|
|
a GpgmeKeyListResult object.
|
|
|
|
* Now that each function comes with its own result retrieval
|
|
interface, the generic gpgme_get_op_info interface is not useful
|
|
anymore and dropped.
|
|
|
|
* The type and mode of data objects is not available anymore.
|
|
|
|
* Interface changes relative to the 0.4.0 release:

Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.8 (2002-06-25)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* It is possible to use an outside event loop for the I/O to the
|
|
crypto engine by setting the I/O callbacks with gpgme_set_io_cbs.
|
|
|

|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* GPGME_ATTR_OTRUST is implemented now.
|
|
|
|
* A first step toward thread safeness has been achieved, see the
|
|
documentation for details. Supported thread libraries are pthread
|
|
and Pth.
|
|
|
|
Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.6 (2002-05-03)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* All error output of the gpgsm backend is send to the bit bucket.
|
|
|
|
* The signature verification functions are extended. Instead of
|
|
always returning GPGME_SIG_STATUS_GOOD, the functions new codes for
|
|
expired signatures. 2 new functions may be used to retrieve more
|
|
detailed information like the signature expiration time and a
|
|
validity information of the key without an extra key looking.
|
|
|
|
* The current passphrase callback and progress meter callback can be
|
|
retrieved with the new functions gpgme_get_passphrase_cb and
|
|
gpgme_get_progress_cb respectively.
|
|
|
|

Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.5 (2002-04-01)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* gpgme_op_encrypt can be called with RECIPIENTS being 0. In this
|
|
case, symmetric encryption is performed. Note that this requires a
|
|
passphrase from the user.
|
|
|
|
* More information is returned for X.509 certificates.
|
|
|
|
* Interface changes relative to the 0.3.4 release:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
gpgme_op_encrypt EXTENDED: Symmetric encryption possible
|

|
|
|
|
Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.4 (2002-03-04)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* gpgme_op_encrypt does now fail with GPGME_Invalid_Recipients if
|
|
some recipients have been invalid, whereas earlier versions
|
|
succeeded in this case. The plaintext is still encrypted for all valid
|
|
recipients, so the application might take this error as a hint that
|
|
the ciphertext is not usable for all requested recipients.
|
|
Information about invalid recipients is available with gpgme_get_op_info.
|
|
|
|
* gpgme_op_verify now allows to pass an uninitialized data object as
|
|
its plaintext argument to check for normal and cleartext
|
|
signatures. The plaintext is then returned in the data object.
|
|
|
|
* New interfaces gpgme_set_include_certs and gpgme_get_include_certs
|
|
to set and get the number of certifications to include in S/MIME
|
|
signed messages.
|
|
|
|
* New interfaces gpgme_op_encrypt_sign and gpgme_op_encrypt_sign_start
|
|
to encrypt and sign a message in a combined operation.
|
|
|
|
* New interface gpgme_op_keylist_ext_start to search for multiple patterns.
|
|
|
|
* gpgme_key_get_ulong_attr supports the GPGME_ATTR_EXPIRE attribute.
|
|
|
|
* Interface changes relative to the 0.3.3 release:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
gpgme_op_encrypt CHANGED: Can fail with GPGME_Invalid_Recipients

Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.3 (2002-02-12)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Fix the Makefile in jnlib.
|
|
|
|
* Fix the test suite (hopefully). It should clean up all its state
|
|
with `make check' now.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.2 (2002-02-10)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Remove erroneous dependency on libgcrypt in jnlib.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.1 (2002-02-09)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* There is a Texinfo manual documenting the API.
|
|
|
|
* The gpgme_set_keylist_mode function returns an error, and changed
|
|
its meaning. It is no longer usable to select between normal and
|
|
fast mode (newer versions of GnuPG will always be fast), but
|
|
selects between local keyring, remote keyserver, or both.
|
|
For this, two new macros are defined, GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_LOCAL
|
|
and GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_EXTERN. To make it possible to modify the
|
|
current setting, a fucntion gpgme_get_keylist_mode was added to
|
|
retrieve the current mode.
|
|
|
|
* gpgme_wait accepts a new argument STATUS to return the error status
|
|
of the operation on the context. Its definition is closer to
|
|
waitpid() now than before.
|
|
|
|
* The LENGTH argument to gpgme_data_new_from_filepart changed its
|
|
type from off_t to the unsigned size_t.
|
|
|
|
* The R_HD argument to the GpgmePassphraseCb type changed its type
|
|
from void* to void**.
|
|
|
|
* New interface gpgme_op_trustlist_end() to match
|
|
gpgme_op_keylist_end().
|
|
|
|
* The CryptPlug modules have been renamed to gpgme-openpgp and
|
|
gpgme-smime, and they are installed in pkglibdir by `make install'.
|
|
|
|
* An idle function can be registered with gpgme_register_idle().
|
|
|
|
* The GpgSM backend supports key generation with gpgme_op_genkey().
|
|
|
|
* Interface changes relative to the 0.3.0 release:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
gpgme_data_new_from_filepart CHANGED: Type of LENGTH is size_t.
|
|
GpgmePassphraseCb CHANGED: Type of R_HD is void **.
|
|
gpgme_wait CHANGED: New argument STATUS.
|
|
gpgme_set_keylist_mode CHANGED: Type of return value is GpgmeError.
|
|
The function has a new meaning!

Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.0 (2001-12-19)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* 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:
|
|

|
|
gpgme_key_get_as_xml CHANGED: Sub-user ids reversed in order.
