  OSSP uuid - Universally Unique Identifier

  CHANGELOG

  This is a list of all changes to OSSP uuid.
  For a more brief summary please have a look at the NEWS file.

  Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.6 (06-Feb-2004 to 11-Feb-2004)

   o Added an experimental additional DCE 1.1 API for backward
     compatibility with existing applications.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

  Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 (19-Jan-2004 to 06-Feb-2004)

   o Fixed filedescriptor leak in the PRNG sub-API.
     [Guerry Semones <guerry@tsunamiresearch.com>]

   o Upgraded build environment to GNU libtool 1.5.2.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

  Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.4 (16-Jan-2004 to 19-Jan-2004)

   o Include <string.h> in uuid.h because of size_t usage.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o INCOMPATIBILITY: Refactor the API and rename uuid_generate()
     to uuid_make() and use a "uuid_t" pointer for the namespace
     on UUID_VERSION3 generation. To allow access to the internal
     pre-defined namespace UUIDs, provide a new uuid_load() function.
     Because uuid_load() now also allows the loading of the "nil" UUID,
     remove uuid_nil() from the API. After this second refactoring the
     API is now the one we originally wished for the forthcoming version
     1.0 of OSSP uuid.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o INCOMPATIBILITY: rename UUID_VERSIONx to UUID_MAKE_Vx and
     UUID_MCASTRND to UUID_MAKE_MC to be more consistent throughout API.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Add version support to API via UUID_VERSION (compile-time)
     and uuid_version() (link-time).
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o INCOMPATIBILITY: Refactor the API by merging
     uuid_{unpack,pack,parse,format,dump}() functions into unified
     uuid_{import,export}() functions. This allows us to easily add
     support for other formats (e.g. XML) in the future without having
     the change the API in principle.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Document what DCE 1.1 UUID versions exist and what they are
     intended for.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Cleanup the C code to also pass warning-free a C++ compiler.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Support C++ by enclosing the C API declarations in
     'extern "C" {...}' within uuid.h.
     [Guerry Semones <guerry@tsunamiresearch.com>]

   o Improvide decoding in uuid_dump() by at least hex-dumping the
     binary representation in case of v3, v4 and Nil UUIDs. Also,
     annotate with better hints.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Recognize special "Nil UUID" on decoding in uuid_dump().
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

  Changes between 0.9.2 and 0.9.3 (15-Jan-2004 to 16-Jan-2004)

   o Tested OSSP uuid on 16 particular Unix platforms and list
     those in the new PORTING file.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Fixed minor formatting bug in call to str_rsprintf().
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Fix syntax error in uuid.ac.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

  Changes between 0.9.1 and 0.9.2 (13-Jan-2004 to 15-Jan-2004)

   o Provide both incorrect RFC2518-based and correct IEEE 802
     multicast address generation. The default now is the correct
     IEEE 802 multicast address generation but compile-time option
     --with-rfc2518 selects the broken variant.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Decode also the IEEE 802 MAC address local/global bit.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Added missing documentation for uuid_dump().
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Fixed BM_POW2() macro implementation.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Use BM_XXX() and str_xxx() APIs throughout internal implementation.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Added missing manual page uuid-config(1).
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Fixed output of "uuid-config --version"
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Fixed typos in uuid.pod
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Cleanup uuid.ac for unused elements.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Moved uuid_[u]int{8,16,32}_t auto-configuration into
     own internal header uuid_ac.h.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Fixed portability by replacing accidentally introduced
     uint{8,16,32}_t with the portable uuid_uint{8,16,32}_t.
     [Guerry Semones <guerry@tsunamiresearch.com>]

   o Prefix all variable symbols in uuid.h with underscores
     to avoid namespace conflicts.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Add decoding examples to uuid(1) manual page.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

  Changes between 0.9.0 and 0.9.1 (11-Jan-2004 to 13-Jan-2004)

   o Make "md5_init" and "mac_address" symbols namespace clean
     by adding correct embedding support via "uuid_" prefix.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Implement uuid_dump() and corresponding uuid CLI "-d"
     option for dumping a given UUID into clear text. For convinience
     reasons add uuid_bm.h (bit mask API) and uuid_str (string
     formatting API) sub-modules.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Add "-m" option to CLI for allowing to generate v1 UUIDs
     with random multi-cast addresses (API UUID_MCASTRND option).
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Disable the C++ and F77 checks in GNU libtool.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   o Print involved option character (instead of '?') on invalid
     option for uuid(1) CLI.
     [Matthias Andree <matthias.andree@gmx.de>]

   o Fixed "make install" and "make uninstall": the uuid(1) CLI
     has to be [un]installed through GNU libtool, too.
     [Matthias Andree <matthias.andree@gmx.de>]

   o Document in uuid(1) [uuid_cli.pod] that for version 3
     UUIDs additional arguments are required and what pre-defined
     namespace ids are known.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall, M.Daniel <mdaniel@scdi.com>]

   o cleaned up source tree documentation files.
     [Ralf S. Engelschall]
