58 | ||
59 | Document that it is now easy to generate different messages that produce the | |
60 | same MD5 digest. | |
61 | ||
62 | Use XSLoader; perl-5.6 is now required. | |

125 | ||
126 | Release 2.27 | |
127 | ||
128 | Avoid having to figure how to compile alignment test program | |
129 | on MS-Windows by just assume free alignment as for i386. Source | |
130 | builds on Windows was apparently broken. | |

136 | Release 2.26 | |
137 | ||
138 | Don't assume PerlIO_read() works like fread() even though | |
139 | it was documented like that for perl 5.6. It returns negative | |
140 | on read failure. | |
141 | ||
142 | Kill test #3 in t/badfile.t. I don't know a reliable way | |
143 | to test read failures on a file handle. Seems better not to | |
144 | test than to make many worry. | |

149 | ||
150 | Release 2.25 | |
151 | ||
152 | The $md5->addfile method now croaks if it discovers | |
153 | errors on the handle after reading from it. This should | |
154 | make it more difficult to end up with the wrong digest | |
155 | just because you are to lazy to check the error status | |
156 | on your file handles after reading from them. | |
157 | ||
158 | Improved documentation. | |

195 | ||
196 | Minor tweaks sync up with bleadperl: | |
197 | - VMS optimizer tweaks to the Makefile.PL | |
198 | - MacOS support | |
199 | - Added alignment test | |
200 | ||
201 | Added example to the MD5 POD that shows how to calculate the | |

209 | ||
210 | More synchronization with tweaks Jarkko have done to the | |
211 | bleadperl test suite. This time various EBCDIC hacks. | |
212 | ||
213 | Outside PERL_CORE the md5-aaa.t test loaded the wrong version of | |
214 | the module (and would fail if no previous Digest::MD5 was installed). | |

316 | Release 2.10 | |
317 | ||
318 | Digest::MD5 will now try to fallback to the pure perl | |
319 | implementation of Digest::Perl::MD5 if bootstrap fails. | |
320 | ||
321 | Added a bit internal paranoia about casting the IV | |

345 | Release 2.07 | |
346 | ||
347 | The Digest::SHA1 module failed on some 64-bit systems, because I | |
348 | assumed there was a correspondence between the U32 size and | |
349 | BYTEORDER. This version use 'unsigned long' as Uwe's original | |
350 | SHA module did. | |
351 | ||
352 | The module should now work better when liked statically with perl, | |
353 | because we now use a safer module-loaded test in Digest.pm. | |
354 | ||

389 | ||
390 | DEC Compiler bug workaround. Contributed by D Roland Walker | |
391 | <walker@ncbi.nlm.nih.gov> | |
392 | ||
393 | Having references to a local variable called "na" was not | |

416 | Contributed by D Roland Walker <walker@ncbi.nlm.nih.gov>. | |
417 | ||
418 | Note that the rfc2202 test can still fail on some DEC Alpha, | |

446 | Release 1.99_60 | |
447 | ||
448 | The 1.99_59 release introduced compilation problems for big-endian | |
449 | systems with free U32 alignment. Bug reported, and fix suggested | |
450 | by Paul J. Schinder <schinder@pobox.com>. | |

456 | Release 1.99_59 | |
457 | ||
458 | Makefile.PL will run a test program to find out if U32 values can | |
459 | be aligned anywhere. This hopefully cures the core dumps reported | |
460 | on Solaris and other big endian systems. Thanks to Graham Barr for | |
461 | debugging this. | |

464 | ||
465 | 1998-10-28 Gisle Aas <aas@sn.no> | |
466 | ||
467 | Release 1.99_58 | |
468 | ||
469 | Should be very close to a 2.00 release now. Need some success | |
470 | reports from people running on big-endian machines first I think. | |
471 | ||
472 | Added a Digest::MD2 implementation. | |
473 | ||
474 | Wrote Digest.pm documentation. This define the interface that all | |
475 | Digest:: modules should provide. | |
476 | ||
477 | Avoided some code duplication in MD5.xs | |
478 | ||
479 | Fixed typo, that prevented Digest::SHA1::sha1_base64() from working. | |
480 | ||
481 | ||
482 | ||
483 | 1998-10-27 Gisle Aas <aas@sn.no> | |
484 | ||
485 | Release 1.99_57 | |
486 | ||
487 | Rewritten most of the MD5 C code to make it real fast (especially | |
488 | on little-endian machines without alignment restrictions for U32). | |
489 | Compared to MD5-1.7 we can process files 4 times as fast and we | |
490 | digest small stuff in memory 7 times faster. I came to these | |
491 | conclusions after these tests (gcc -O2, i586, Linux): | |
492 | ||
493 | First tested calculation of the digest of a 31 MB file, using | |
494 | perl -le 'print Digest::MD5->new->addfile(*STDIN)->hexdigest' | |
495 | and similar stuff: | |
496 | ||
497 | MD5-1.7: 21.06s | |
498 | Digest::MD5-1.99_57: 5.23s | |
499 | md5sum (GNU textutils): 4.90s | |
500 | ||
501 | As you can see, we do nearly as good as the md5sum program. I | |
502 | think the reason we don't beat md5sum is that perl always insist on | |
503 | loading extra modules like Config.pm, Carp.pm, strict.pm, vars.pm, | |
504 | AutoLoader.pm and DynaLoader.pm. When I simply wrapped the MD5.xs | |
505 | hasher code in a C program I managed to process the file in 4.68s. | |
506 | ||
507 | Then we calculated the digest of the same 6 byte sting, 20000 | |
508 | times: | |
509 | ||
510 | MD5-1.7: 11.81s | |
511 | Digest::MD5-1.99_57: 1.68s | |
512 | ||
513 | Digest::MD5 benefit from making this into a plain procedure call | |
514 | instead of a static method call. | |
515 | ||
516 | ||
517 | Other changes in this release are: | |
518 | ||
519 | Documentation update | |
520 | ||
521 | Internal MD5.xs cleanup. | |
522 | ||
523 | $md5->digest will automatically reset now. | |
524 | ||
525 | Digest::HMAC methods add() and addfile() did not return the | |

527 | |
528 | Added Digest.pm loading module. I am not sure this is a good idea. | |
529 | ||
530 | Added Digest::SHA1 and Digest::HMAC_SHA1 module. The Digest::SHA1 | |
531 | module is just a wrapper around SHA.pm. I hope to get the author | |
532 | of SHA.pm to move his module to the Digest:: category. | |

537 | ||
538 | Release 1.99_56 | |
539 | ||
540 | Fix memcpy_byteswap() function in MD5.xs. Must be careful with | |
541 | htovl() as it might evaluate its arguments more than once. | |
542 | ||
543 | ||
544 | ||
545 | 1998-10-25 Gisle Aas <aas@sn.no> | |
546 | ||
547 | Release 1.99_55 | |
548 | ||
549 | Grahams HMAC_MD5.pm splitted into two modules. Digest::HMAC and | |
550 | Digest::HMAC_MD5. Also provide functional interface. Documentation | |
551 | is still lacking. | |
552 | ||
553 | Included RFC 2202 based test for HMAC-MD5. | |
554 | ||
555 | ||
556 | ||
557 | 1998-10-24 Gisle Aas <aas@sn.no> | |
558 | ||
559 | Release 1.99_54 | |
560 | ||
561 | Included HMAC_MD5.pm, contributed by Graham Barr <gbarr@ti.com>. | |
562 | ||
563 | I have a hard time to make up my mind :-) md5_bin() renamed back | |
564 | to md5(). Functions are not exported by default any more. | |
565 | ||
566 | Try to Encode/Decode with memcpy_byteswap for 32-bit big-endian | |
567 | machines. | |
568 | ||
569 | ||
570 | ||
571 | 1998-10-23 Gisle Aas <aas@sn.no> | |
572 | ||
573 | Release 1.99_53 | |
574 | ||
575 | Renamed core module as Digest::MD5. Leave a MD5.pm stub for | |
576 | legacy code. | |
577 | ||
578 | The md5() function renamed as md5_bin(). | |
579 | ||
580 | The constructor, Digest::MD5->new, no longer takes any extra | |
581 | arguments. | |
582 | ||
583 | Added some new tests. | |
584 | ||
585 | Updated the documentation. | |
586 | ||
587 | $md5->b64digest implemented with same base64 encoder as md5_base64. | |
588 | ||
589 | ||
590 | ||
591 | 1998-10-23 Gisle Aas <aas@sn.no> | |
592 | ||
593 | Release 1.99_52 | |
594 | ||
595 | Patch from Graham Barr which make it work for big-endian machines | |
596 | again. | |
597 | ||
598 | ||
599 | ||
600 | 1998-10-22 Gisle Aas <aas@sn.no> | |
601 | ||
602 | Release 1.99_51 | |
603 | ||
604 | The MD5 class is now subclassable. | |
605 | ||
606 | The add() and addfile() methods now return $self. | |
607 | ||
608 | The reset() method is just an alias for new(). | |
609 | ||
610 | The constructor (MD5->new) now takes optional arguments which are | |
611 | automatically added. It means that we can now write: | |
612 | ||
613 | MD5->new($data)->hexdigest; | |
614 | ||
615 | New $md5->b64digest method. | |
616 | ||
617 | New functions that are exported on request: md5, md5_hex, md5_base64 | |
618 | ||
619 | Included RFC 1321 | |
620 | ||
621 | Barely started to update the documentation. | |
622 | ||
623 | ||
624 | ||
625 | 1998-10-22 Gisle Aas <aas@sn.no> | |
626 | ||
627 | Release 1.99_50 | |
628 | ||
629 | Much better performance (more than twice as fast now). Mostly | |
630 | because we use Copy/Zero instead of the original MD5_memcpy and | |
631 | MD5_memset functions. | |
632 | ||
633 | The addfile() and hexdigest() methods are now XS implemented. | |
634 | ||
635 | All RSA functions now included in MD5.xs and made static. | |
636 | ||
637 | Use perl's Copy/Zero. | |
638 | ||
639 | Random cleanup, simplifications and reformatting. | |
640 | Merged things better with the perl configuration. | |
641 | ||
642 | ||
643 | ||
644 | Neil Winton's versions below: | |
645 | ||
646 | ||
647 | *** 96/06/20 Version 1.7 | |
648 | ||
649 | MD5 is now completely 64-bit clean (I hope). The basic MD5 code uses | |
650 | 32-bit quantities and requires a typedef UINT4 to be defined in | |
651 | global.h. Perl configuration data (the value of BYTEORDER) is used to | |
652 | determine if unsigned longs have 4 or 8 bytes. On 64-bit platforms (eg | |
653 | DEC Alpha) then it assumes that "unsigned int" will be a 32-bit type. | |
654 | If this is incorrect then adding -DUINT4_IS_LONG to the DEFINES line in | |
655 | Makefile.PL will override this. | |
656 | ||
657 | On some machines (at least Cray that I know of) there is no 32-bit | |
658 | integer type. In this case defining TRUNCATE_UINT4 (which is done | |
659 | automatically for a Cray) will ensure that 64-bit values are masked | |
660 | down to 32 bits. I have done my best to test this but without easy | |
661 | access to a true 64-bit machine I can not totally guarantee it (unless | |
662 | anyone wants to lend me a spare Cray :-) | |
663 | ||
664 | There is one remaining limitation for 64-bit enabled processors. The | |
665 | amount of data passed to any single call to the underlying MD5 | |
666 | routines is limited to (2^32 - 1) bytes -- that's 4 gigabytes. I'm | |
667 | sorry if that's a real problem for you ... | |
668 | ||
8be5f608 | 669 | And finally, a minor compilation warning (unsigned char * used with |
3357b1b1 JH |
670 | function having char * prototype) has also been eliminated. |
671 | ||
672 | *** 96/04/09 Version 1.6 | |
673 | ||
674 | Re-generated module framework using h2xs to pick up the latest module | |
675 | conventions for versions etc. You can now say "use MD5 1.6;" and things | |
676 | should work correctly. MD5.pod has been integrated into MD5.pm and | |
677 | CHANGES renamed to Changes. There is a fairly comprehensive test.pl | |
678 | which can be invoked via "make test". There are no functional changes | |
679 | to the MD5 routines themselves. | |
680 | ||
681 | *** 96/03/14 Version 1.5.3 | |
682 | ||
683 | Fixed addfile method to accept type-glob references for the file-handle | |
684 | (eg \*STDOUT). This is more consistent with other routines and is now the | |
685 | recommended way of passing file-handles. The documentation now gives more | |
686 | examples as to how the routines might be used. | |
687 | ||
688 | *** 96/03/12 Version 1.5.2 | |
689 | ||
690 | Minor fixes from Christopher J Madsen <madsen@computek.net> to provide | |
8be5f608 | 691 | support for building on OS/2 (and to work around a perl -w bug). |
3357b1b1 JH |
692 | |
693 | Remove warning about possible difference between add('foo', 'bar') and | |
694 | add('foobar'). This is not true (it may have been true in the earliest | |
695 | version of the module but is no longer the case). | |
696 | ||
697 | *** 96/03/08 Version 1.5.1 | |
698 | ||
699 | Add CHANGES file to make it easier for people to figure out what has | |
700 | been going on. (Meant to do this as part of 1.5) | |
701 | ||
702 | *** 96/03/05 Version 1.5 | |
703 | ||
704 | Add hash() and hexhash() methods at the suggestion/request of Gary | |
705 | Howland <gary@kampai.euronet.nl> before inclusion in a wider library | |
706 | of cryptography modules. | |
707 | ||
708 | *** 96/02/27 Version 1.4 | |
709 | ||
710 | Finally fixed the pesky Solaris dynamic loading bug. All kudos to Ken | |
711 | Pizzini <kenp@spry.com>! | |
712 | ||
713 | *** 95/11/29 Version 1.3.1 | |
714 | ||
715 | Add explanations of current known problems. | |
716 | ||
717 | *** 95/06/02 Version 1.3 | |
718 | ||
719 | Fix problems with scope resolution in addfile() reported by | |
720 | Jean-Claude Giese <Jean-Claude.Giese@loria.fr>. Basically ARGV is | |
721 | always implicitly in package main while other filehandles aren't. | |
722 | ||
723 | *** 95/05/23 Version 1.2.1 | |
724 | ||
725 | [Changes pre 1.2.1 not recorded] |
