NEWS: release info about IC35Link
|
|
=================================
|
|
|
|
2001-08-12 version 1.18 IC35LINK-1-18
|
|
long pending release with several improvements and corrections
|
|
according to suggestions and bug reports by users.
|
|
improvements:
|
|
- improved README: table of contents, restrictions, more explanations
|
|
- ic35mgr restore and MMC write 30% faster (proposal by Harald Becker)
|
|
- ic35sync, ic35mgr, vcaconv now support long options, e.g. "--help"
|
|
info enquiry with "--help" or "--version" now returns exitcode 0
|
|
- new autogen.sh script for generate configure etc. after CVS checkout
|
|
(thanks Konrad Mader for report about missing configure in CVS)
|
|
- new configure option "--disable-logandcomsim" for conditional compile
|
|
without logging and com-simulation (proposal by Harald Becker)
|
|
- new configure options "--enable-ansi" and "--enable-pedantic"
|
|
bugfixes:
|
|
- fixed problem where ic35sync with many (ca. 860) addresses failed
|
|
(thanks Konrad Mader for bug report "get_mod_flen failed")
|
|
- ic35sync now accepts also empty PIMfile(s), e.g. empty ic35.memo
|
|
(thanks Malte Schmidt for bug report "ic35.memo: parse error")
|
|
- ic35mgr MMCard functions now check ic35path before accessing IC35
|
|
e.g. warn if shell eat backslash (\) in unquoted MMCard1\test.txt
|
|
(thanks Thomas Lichtenberg for bug report)
|
|
- restricted ic35mgr to max.blocksize 16350 found by experiments
|
|
- ic35sync, ic35mgr now abort on open failure of logfile or simfile
|
|
- fixed com-simulation for adjacent "RD nn" lines and non-logged bytes
|
|
- fixed compile problem util.c with Linux Mandrake-8.0 and SuSE-7.2
|
|
(thanks Christian Theile, Karl Stroetmann for bug reports)
|
|
- corrected warnings from "--enable-ansi" and "--missing-prototypes"
|
|
- fixed all Makefile.am: maintainer-clean keeps only sources in CVS,
|
|
install also README and COPYING, clean dependencies and versinfo.c
|
|
|
|
2001-02-05 version 1.17 IC35LINK-1-17
|
|
package renamed to "ic35link" and automake/autoconf/CVS reorganization.
|
|
no changes in sources, programs are unchanged except for version.
|
|
sources,documents now reside in src,doc subdirectories respectively.
|
|
|
|
2001-02-04 version 1.16 IC35SYNC-1-16
|
|
this is a bugfix and redesign release and is the last named "ic35sync".
|
|
(the package will be renamed to "ic35link" in the next release, when
|
|
the reorganizations for automake/autoconf and public CVS are done.)
|
|
improvements and redesign:
|
|
- ic35sync,ic35mgr,vcaconv now report package version and build info
|
|
- distribution includes vcc.c to handle missing/bad 'bison' or 'yacc'
|
|
(e.g. SuSE-7.0's yacc produced bad vcc.o, thanks Michael Bruennert)
|
|
- reworked and clearified the IC35 manager protocol documentation and
|
|
implementation (see ic35mgr.txt, mgrtrans.*, mgrproto.*), refer to
|
|
the IC35 SoftwareDevelopmentKit API MMCard functions in mgrproto.c
|
|
bugfixes in ic35mgr and ic35sync:
|
|
- fixed compile error RedHat-7.0 gcc-2.96 (thanks Dieter Schultschik)
|
|
- corrections for 'ic35mgr status' (thanks Michael Bruennert):
|
|
mgrtrans.c:status() tries to get IC35 response instead of only wait
|
|
mgrproto.c:MMCsend() sends blocklength with initial wait
|
|
corrected output of MMCard2 label
|
|
- ic35mgr commands backup and restore show error messages on new line
|
|
- avoid failing 'ic35mgr restore ..' at "disconnect" by delay 3.25 sec
|
|
after writedatabase() done
|
|
- avoid failure of 'ic35mgr mmcput file' with occasional slow IC35
|
|
MMCard write with 3.5 sec timeout for length of response block
|
|
- corrected MMC closedir,closefile response PDUs having no status-word
|
|
- corrected to make 'ic35sync status' work also with simulation file
|
|
|
|
2001-01-20 version 1.15 IC35SYNC-1-15
|
|
new IC35 manager 'ic35mgr' supports access of IC35 MMCard(s)
|
|
- command "mmcdir" lists contents of MMCard(s)
|
|
- commands "mmcget","mmcput","mmcdel" read,write,delete MMCard file
|
|
- commands "backup","restore" IC35 organizer database
|
|
- ic35mgr.txt now really describes the IC35 manager protocol
|
|
(previously it was just extracts of Windows 'portmon' logfiles)
|
|
bugfixes in ic35sync and vcaconv:
|
|
- "ic35sync sync" now updates record if on IC35, else writes new record
|
|
- "vcaconv sortvca ic35.vcal" did produce empty output, fixed vobject.c
|
|
- fixed vcc.y compile warnings
|
|
- "vcaconv sortvca .." improved: shows properties in sort order sequence
|
|
todo:
|
|
- ic35mgr install application on IC35
|
|
- ic35sync initial sync does not yet write all records to IC35
|
|
workaround: do "ic35sync import .." before first "ic35sync sync .."
|
|
|
|
2000-12-28 version 1.14 IC35SYNC-1-14
|
|
ic35sync import,sync step-5 done: "sync" command, misc. improvements
|
|
- sync command for synchronize vCard,vCalendar format PIMdata with IC35
|
|
- corrected convert of PIM BDAY birthday to IC35 for yyyy-mm-dd format
|
|
- PIM multiple CATEGORIES now preserved by prepend category from IC35,
|
|
single or standard of multiple CATEGORIES are replaced
|
|
- PIM fullname FN now preserved, IC35 updates first,last name into it
|
|
- put first 2 EMAIL entries from vCard into IC35 address Email1,Email2
|
|
- put unspecific telno to IC35 TelWork for "Business", else to TelHome
|
|
- map IC35 address "(def.)"s in VCARD.NOTE marked "(def1):","(def2):"
|
|
- conversion IC35 to/from PIM record does now yet delete record fields
|
|
- extracted data formats from dataio.c into separate modules:
|
|
datatxt.c text format (output only)
|
|
databin.c binary IC35 record format
|
|
datavca.c vCard,vCalendar format
|
|
vcutil.c vCard,vCalendar utilities
|
|
vcutil.h header for vCard,vCalendar utilities
|
|
fixes for gnomecard from gnome-pim_1.2.0:
|
|
- compare VCARD.REV against old reference date+time from IC35, because
|
|
gnomecard does not maintain X-PILOTSTAT.
|
|
- write VCARD.REV:yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss, because yyyymmddThhmmss was
|
|
ignored by gnomecard.
|
|
fixes for gnomecal from gnome-pim_1.2.0:
|
|
- first line of VEVENT.SUMMARY to/from IC35 Summary, remaining lines
|
|
to/from Notes, because gnomecal does not support VEVENT.DESCRIPTION
|
|
- keep unsupported property VTODO.DSTART marked in VTODO.DESCRIPTION
|
|
- add VEVENT,VTODO.CLASS:PUBLIC, else gnomecal would crash on edit
|
|
fixes for korganizer v1.1.1:
|
|
- put UID:IC35id-xxxxxxxx to vCard,vCalender record if no UID there.
|
|
- produce output vCard,vCal in same CRLF/NL-mode as found on input,
|
|
as korganizer has NL-terminated lines in vCalendar.
|
|
- translate IC35 CRLF to/from PIM NL in NOTE and DESCRIPTION fields.
|
|
- keep unsupported properties VTODO.DSTART,DUE,CATEGORIES as marked
|
|
lines in VTODO.DESCRIPTION
|
|
- korganizer supports only DALARM, map IC35 LED and Beep to/from it
|
|
vcaconv extensions:
|
|
- command "prvca" reports vCard/vCalendar parse error.
|
|
- command "sortvca" outputs sorted vCard,vCalendar to standard output.
|
|
- command "imphandy" appends vCards with category HANDY from vCard file
|
|
to standard output, after import the result back into IC35 they are
|
|
for upload to a mobile phone from IC35 addresses in category HANDY.
|
|
CAVEAT:
|
|
- no options for sync conflict resolve, PIMfile always overrides IC35!
|
|
- IC35 has no different times for LED,Beep alarm, DALARM takes priority
|
|
- vcaconv conversions do not transfer clean/modified record status
|
|
- memory leak in vobject.c: all setVObject_*_Value() do not free the
|
|
previously attached dupStr()-allocated string value
|
|
|
|
2000-12-17 version 1.13 IC35SYNC-1-13 (not released to public)
|
|
ic35sync import,sync step-4 done: "import" command, misc. improvements
|
|
- algorithm details described in ic35sync.c:ic35import(),ic35export()
|
|
- import command for vCard,vCalendar or binary format PIMdata into IC35
|
|
- status command (new) shows IC35 version, sysinfo, total,mod records
|
|
- export command improved:
|
|
export into existing PIMfile(s), backup e.g. ic35vcal to ic35.vcal~
|
|
map IC35 address fields "(def.)" to/from VCARD:NOTE marked lines
|
|
change vCard,vCalendar record modified time only if record changed
|
|
support DCREATED in vCalendar: creation time of VEVENT,VTODO record
|
|
corrected VEVENT:AALARM,DLARM, were sometimes wrongly created
|
|
- support X-PILOTSTAT in vCard,vCal: 0=same, other=changed vs. IC35
|
|
- default format changed to "vca" for primary use vCard,vCalendar
|
|
- vcaconv may be used as filter with input/output from stdin/stdout
|
|
- fixed QUOTED-PRINTABLE problem with multi-field properties (like
|
|
VCARD:N, VCARD:ADR): due to problem with parser vcc.y and for
|
|
compatibility with other programs using the vCard,vCal output
|
|
QUOTED-PRINTABLE is not used on multi-field properties.
|
|
(otherwise the split into field sub-properties fails and the
|
|
first field (e.g. VCARD:ADR:STREET) gets the string of ALL the
|
|
fields (e.g. STREET,CITY,etc.) with ";" within it.)
|
|
todo: sync command, fix memory leak in vobject.c
|
|
conversion IC35 to/from PIM record does not yet delete record fields,
|
|
i.e. record on destination may differ and have fields not in source.
|
|
may be delete field needed only for sync, because import/export are
|
|
specified to not delete on destination.
|
|
|
|
2000-12-07 version 1.12 IC35SYNC-1-12 (not released to public)
|
|
ic35sync import,sync step-3 done:
|
|
convert vCard,vCalendar format to IC35 record
|
|
ic35sync import,sync step-2 done:
|
|
new protocol functions for import,sync tested OK
|
|
new knowledge about import,sync from experiments
|
|
new features:
|
|
- vcaconv supports "vca2bin", new "bin2txt" conversions
|
|
- ic35log.sh supports new commands readrecrid,updatrec
|
|
processes ic35sync logfiles, fragmented response readmodrec
|
|
- syntrans.{c,h}: connect() argument rdtime to retrieve value from IC35
|
|
corrections:
|
|
- corrected ic35addr_to_vcard(): set VCAdrProp if have any address field
|
|
- vcaconv.c,dataio.c: handle binfile records without data
|
|
- synproto.c: corrected CMDfgetmlen, CMDcategory, CMDsetdtime
|
|
documentation ic35sync.txt:
|
|
- marked uncertain topics with "???"
|
|
- experiments found new commands: read record by record-ID (01 05) and
|
|
write record data update (01 09), keeps recID on IC35 unchanged
|
|
- new knowledge about open file, changeflag, write record
|
|
first all read then write,del,commit, "date+time" may be any string
|
|
todo: ic35sync commands import,sync
|
|
|
|
2000-12-01 version 1.11 IC35SYNC-1-11 (not released to public)
|
|
intermediate freeze after ic35sync import,sync step-1 done:
|
|
- new functions: set_date_time, category, get_mod_flen, read_mod_frec,
|
|
write_frec, delete_frec, commit_frec
|
|
- IC35 record access functions ic35frec.{c,h}
|
|
- 4byte record-ID combined from file-id (MSB) and record-id (LSW)
|
|
- support last-modified-time for vCard,vCalendar
|
|
- protocol-analyser ic35log.sh replaces and extends ic35prot.awk
|
|
todo: test new funcs, vCard,vCal to IC35 record, commands import,sync
|
|
|
|
2000-11-22 version 1.10 IC35SYNC-1-10
|
|
- ic35sync supports output IC35 PIM data in vCard,vCalendar format
|
|
new option "-f format" and command,pimfile args replace "-o outfile"
|
|
write date+time to logfile
|
|
- added vCard,vCalendar API: vcc.h vcc.y vobject.h vobject.c port.h
|
|
from gnome-pim-1.2.0.tar.gz:gnome-pim-1.2.0/libversit/
|
|
see ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/stable/sources/gnome-pim/
|
|
other sources for vCard,vCalendar API:
|
|
- kpilot_3.1.10-1.0.tar.gz (based on KPilot 3.1b9)
|
|
from ftp://kde.tdyc.com/pub/kde/debian/dists/potato/contrib/source/
|
|
see also http://www.slac.com/pilone/kpilot_home/index.html
|
|
- versit consortium' SDK for Windows DLLs
|
|
from http://www.imc.org/pdi/sdkdllsr.zip
|
|
- restrictions of implemented vCard,vCalendar output:
|
|
- strings with non-printable chars get "QUOTED-PRINTABLE" property
|
|
uncertain if it should be "ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE"
|
|
- strings with 8bit-chars also get "CHARSET=ISO-8859-1" property
|
|
uncertain if this is compliant to standard, because vobject.h
|
|
does not contain "CHARSET", but both "vCard Version 2.1" and
|
|
"vCalendar Version 1.0" explicitely allow "Character Set"
|
|
- IC35 "Memo" has no standard vCard,vCalendar format representation
|
|
using proprietary extension of VMEMO records
|
|
- new vcaconv: vCard,vCalendar conversions, e.g. for offline tests
|
|
with IC35 binary data
|
|
moved IC35 file descriptions from syntrans.* to dataio.*
|
|
to avoid vcaconv link needing syntrans.o,synproto.o etc.
|
|
- ic35sync.txt: corrected LED-,Beep-alarmflags
|
|
- Makefile: ask before overwrite distribution tar.gz
|
|
- syntrans.c: reset serial device on abort with Ctrl-C
|
|
- comio.c: correct comrecv(): fdsets undefined if select() returns -1
|
|
- avoid gcc warnings about rcsid[]s not used
|
|
|
|
2000-11-19 version 1.9 IC35SYNC-1-9 (not released to public)
|
|
- added README, ic35sync.txt,ic35mgr.txt, ic35prot.awk
|
|
- Makefile: integrated help, target for tar.gz distribution
|
|
- syntrans.{c,h},ic35sync.c: export connect(), details internal
|
|
abort on bad power and wrong password responses
|
|
check for ready-reponse '\x80' from IC35
|
|
- ic35sync.c: write ic35sync version/rcsid to logfile
|
|
- util.{c,h}: log_init() interface changed (loglevel argument)
|
|
- ic35sync.txt: mention logfiles used for protocol analysis
|
|
|
|
2000-11-07 version 1.8 IC35SYNC-1-8 (not released to public)
|
|
ic35sync.c split into modules
|
|
|
|
2000-11-05 version 1.7 IC35SYNC-1-7
|
|
first usable version, read PIM data from IC35 tested OK.
|
|
CAVEAT:
|
|
- PIM data export in "home grown" format not compatible to anything
|
|
- cannot write PIM data to IC35, neither synchronize
|
|
- unsupported commands "set date+time", "category", "reset chgflag"
|
|
- ugly one-module-source
|
|
|
|
