aria2 1.11.2
|
||||
aria2 1.12.0
|
||||
============
|
||||
|
||||
Release Note
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
This release adds the ability to handle metalink file which contains
|
||||
relative URI in metalink:url and metalink:metaurl element. The
|
||||
username and password specified in command-line are now masked with
|
||||
"*" immediately after parsed, so that ps cannot show username and
|
||||
password. In XML-RPC, aria2 now treats data without data type tag as
|
||||
string. In MinGW32 build, cmd.exe is specified explicitly to run .bat
|
||||
file.
|
||||
This release adds --pause option which makes download paused state
|
||||
immediately when added. If --save-session is used, aria2 will save
|
||||
paused download with --pause option. aria2.getGlobalStat RPC method
|
||||
was added. It returns global statistics such as overall download
|
||||
speed. This release also fixes the bug that RPC request fails if it
|
||||
is compressed. aria2 now won't save removed download in --save-session
|
||||
text file. --file-allocation=falloc now works in MinGW32 build. This
|
||||
only works with NTFS. Russian translation of man page and HTML manual
|
||||
was added. We added more command line options in this release. See
|
||||
Changes for details.
|
||||
|
||||
Changes
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
* Updated Japanese, Spanish and Simplified Chinese translation.
|
||||
Thanks to all translators.
|
||||
* Use ServerStat to find faster server.
|
||||
|
||||
* Eliminated few seconds delay when downloads stop or pause.
|
||||
* Added Russian translation of man page and HTML manual contributed
|
||||
by ITriskTI.
|
||||
|
||||
* Added --metalink-base-uri option. --metalink-uri option specifies
|
||||
base URI to resolve relative URI in metalink file stored in local
|
||||
disk. If URI points to a directory, URI must end with '/'.
|
||||
* Added aria2.getGlobalStat RPC method. It returns overall
|
||||
download/upload speed and the number of active/stopped/waiting
|
||||
downloads.
|
||||
|
||||
* Run batch file with cmd.exe. Quoted user command. It seems that we
|
||||
have to specify the full path to cmd.exe in the first argument of
|
||||
CreateProcess() to run batch file in proper manner. We first
|
||||
determine the full path to cmd.exe. To do this, we get windir
|
||||
environment variable and concatenate it with "\system32\cmd.exe".
|
||||
* Added --pause option. This option pauses download after
|
||||
added. This option is effective only when --enable-rpc=true is
|
||||
given. When --save-session option is used and there are paused
|
||||
downloads, they are saved with --pause=true so that it will become
|
||||
paused state when the session is recovered.
|
||||
|
||||
* Fixed the bug that the message "Loaded cookies from ..." appears
|
||||
when loading cookies from that file failed.
|
||||
* Abort aria2 if it could not setup any RPC server.
|
||||
|
||||
* Applied patch from Dan Fandrich. This patch fixes compatibility
|
||||
issue when compiling aria2 on older systems.
|
||||
* Added --truncate-console-readout option. This option truncates
|
||||
console readout to fit in a single line. This is default. Give
|
||||
false value to this option to tell aria2 not to truncate console
|
||||
readout.
|
||||
|
||||
* Support relative URI in Metalink file. If relative URI is found in
|
||||
Metalink file, aria2 resolves its full URI contatenating the URI
|
||||
from which Metalink file is retrieved and relative URI in Metalink
|
||||
file. This feature is not available if Metalink file in local disk
|
||||
is specified in command line.
|
||||
* Cache and reuse RpcMethod objects.
|
||||
|
||||
* Erase user and password specified in command-line from argv. The
|
||||
user and password is masked with '*'.
|
||||
* Allowed missing params in system.multicall RPC method.
|
||||
|
||||
* If no data type tag is used in XML-RPC, treat the data as string.
|
||||
* Added --stream-piece-selector option. This option specifies piece
|
||||
selection algorithm used in HTTP/FTP download. Piece means fixed
|
||||
length segment which is downloaded in parallel in segmented
|
||||
download. If 'default' is given, aria2 selects piece so that it
|
||||
reduces the number of establishing connection. This is reasonable
|
||||
default behaviour because establishing connection is an expensive
|
||||
operation. If 'inorder' is given, aria2 selects piece which has
|
||||
minimum index. Index=0 means first of the file. This will be useful
|
||||
to view movie while downloading it. --enable-http-pipelining option
|
||||
may be useful to reduce reconnection overhead. Please note that
|
||||
aria2 honors --min-split-size option, so it will be necessary to
|
||||
specify a reasonable value to --min-split-size option.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* Removed unnecessary template parameter from std::make_pair call.
|
||||
The patch was contributed from Dan Fandrich.
|
||||
|
||||
aria2 1.11.1
|
||||
============
|
||||
* Implemented fast file allocation in MinGW32 build. We use
|
||||
SetFilePointerEx and SetEndOfFile to allocate extents. This only
|
||||
works with NTFS. To enable this feature, --file-allocation=falloc
|
||||
must be given.
|
||||
|
||||
Release Note
|
||||
------------
|
||||
* Only percent-encode non-printable ASCII chars(0x00-0x1f), non-ASCII
|
||||
chars(>0x7f), ' ', '"', '<' and '>' for URIs supplied by user and
|
||||
remote server(usually Location header field).
|
||||
|
||||
This release fixes the bug that aria2 does not work on platforms which
|
||||
have kqueue() system call due to invalid timeout parameter. The
|
||||
--show-console-readout option was added. This option toggles the
|
||||
appearance of console readout.
|
||||
* Don't throw exception if Z_BUF_ERROR is encountered in GZipEncoder.
|
||||
This fixed the bug that compressed RPC request failed.
|
||||
|
||||
Changes
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
* Added --show-console-readout option. This option toggles
|
||||
appearance of console readout.
|
||||
|
||||
* Fixed the bug that microsecond part of timeval overwlows in
|
||||
waitData(). This bug affects platforms which have kqueue() system
|
||||
call. Those systems are FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD and Darwin (Mac OS
|
||||
X).
|
||||
|

|
||||
|
||||
aria2 1.11.0
|
||||
============
|
||||
|
||||
Release Note
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
This release adds JSON-RPC interface. The JSON-RPC and XML-RPC shares
|
||||
same APIs. The JSON-RPC also supports JSONP. 2 new options were added:
|
||||
--retry-wait and --async-dns-server. The downloads added by
|
||||
aria2.addTorrent and aria2.addMetalink RPC method are now saved to the
|
||||
file specified in --save-session option. The proxy options and related
|
||||
environment variables now accept https:// and ftp:// scheme. This
|
||||
release fixes the bug that causes segmentation fault when unpausing
|
||||
downloads in some situations. MinGW32 build now looks for USERPROFILE
|
||||
and the combination of HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH to get user's home
|
||||
directory and doesn't check permission of .netrc file.
|
||||
|
||||
Changes
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
* Updated gettext to 0.18
|
||||
|
||||
* Added JSON-RPC support. --enable-xml-rpc was deprecated and
|
||||
--enable-rpc should be used instead. Similarly, --xml-rpc-*
|
||||
options were replaced with --rpc-* options. We are implementing
|
||||
JSON-RPC based on JSON-RPC 2.0 draft spec.
|
||||
|
||||
* Fixed rounding error in DownloadEngine::run(). This fixes the bug
|
||||
that executeCommand() with Command::STATUS_ALL is not called in
|
||||
every interval correctly because of rounding error in timer.
|
||||
|
||||
* Refresh buckets at DHT initialization without checking serialized
|
||||
time. Checking serialized time does not work if you stop aria2 as
|
||||
soon as it started DHT. The serialized time in dht.dat will be
|
||||
updated, but buckets are not updated and still old. When you
|
||||
restart aria2 again soon, it does not refresh buckets because
|
||||
serialized time is recent.
|
||||
|
||||
* Save downloads added by aria2.addTorrent or aria2.addMetalink in
|
||||
--save-session file. Uploaded data are saved as file named hex
|
||||
string of sha1 hash of uploaded data plus extension(".torrent" for
|
||||
torrent and ".meta4" for metalink). For example,
|
||||
0a3893293e27ac0490424c06de4d09242215f0a6.torrent. The directory
|
||||
where these files are saved is specified by --dir option. These
|
||||
file paths are written in --save-session file.
|
||||
|
||||
* Fixed the bug that causes segmentation fault when unpause
|
||||
RequestGroup which has resolved BtDependency.
|
||||
|
||||
* Look for USERPROFILE and the combination of HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH
|
||||
to get user's home directory in MinGW32 build. Usually HOME
|
||||
environment variable is defined in *nix like OSes, but not in
|
||||
Windows. So in MinGW32 build, if HOME is not defined, we also look
|
||||
for USERPROFILE and the combination of HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH.
|
||||
|
||||
* Fixed the bug that DownloadContext::basePath_ is not escaped.
|
||||
|
||||
* Added Date, Expires and Cache-Control response header field to RPC
|
||||
response.
|
||||
|
||||
* Added --async-dns-server option. This option accepts comma
|
||||
separated list of DNS server addresses used in asynchronous DNS
|
||||
resolver. Usually asynchronous DNS resolver reads DNS server
|
||||
addresses from /etc/resolv.conf. When this option is used, it uses
|
||||
DNS servers specified in this option instead of ones in
|
||||
/etc/resolv.conf. You can specify both IPv4 and IPv6 address. This
|
||||
option is useful when the system does not have /etc/resolv.conf and
|
||||
user does not have the permission to create it.
|
||||
|
||||
* Accept https:// and ftp:// in proxy options and environment variables.
|
||||
|
||||
* Fixed overflow in the calculation of progress percentage for file
|
||||
allocation and hash check when off_t is 32bit.
|
||||
|
||||
* Accept HTTP 304 reply as success when If-None-Match request-header
|
||||
field is specified using --header option. When --conditional-get
|
||||
is used, --allow-overwrite is now required to overwrite existing
|
||||
file.
|
||||
|
||||
* Added aria2.removeDownloadResult RPC method. The method signature
|
||||
is aria2.removeDownloadResult(gid). This method removes
|
||||
completed/error/removed download denoted by gid from memory. This
|
||||
method returns "OK" for success.
|
||||
|
||||
* Use IP address of control connection to connect to the remote server in
|
||||
FTP passive mode.
|
||||
|
||||
* Don't check permission of .netrc file in MinGW32 build.
|
||||
|
||||
* Added --retry-wait option. This option was once existed in aria2
|
||||
but erased on 2009-09-20. Now it is resurrected once again. We
|
||||
choose 0 as default value for backward compatibility. Now we retry
|
||||
HTTP download when remote server returns "503 Service Unavailable"
|
||||
if --retry-wait > 0. We also added error code 29:
|
||||
HTTP_SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE.
|
||||
|
||||
* Don't show metadata download and paused download in "Download Results".
|
||||
* Don't save removed download in --save-session text file. Now stat
|
||||
column of removed downloads in Download Results is 'RM' instead of
|
||||
INPR.
