| ndn-cxx version 0.8.0 |
| --------------------- |
| |
| Release date: February 15, 2022 |
| |
| Important changes |
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
| |
| - Flip default value of ``CanBePrefix`` to **false** (:issue:`4582`). This means that |
| Interests created without explicitly specifying ``CanBePrefix`` option will be treated |
| as Interests for exact Data name. |
| |
| - Change default name component encoding convention to ``TYPED`` (:issue:`5044`) |
| |
| - Update TLV-TYPE numbers to revision 3 of the `naming conventions`_ |
| |
| .. _naming conventions: |
| https://named-data.net/publications/techreports/ndn-tr-22-3-ndn-memo-naming-conventions/ |
| |
| - Change TLV-TYPE number of ``IncomingFaceId`` field in NDNLP (:issue:`5185`) |
| |
| - Update Interest ``ForwardingHint`` format (:issue:`5187`) |
| |
| Improvements and bug fixes |
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
| |
| - Support certificate name, versionless certificate name, and key name options for |
| KeyLocator name in ``ValidatorConfig`` (:issue:`5142`) |
| |
| - Generalize signature verification to allow ``digest-sha256``, effectively adding |
| support of digest integrity verification in ``ValidatorConfig`` |
| |
| - Enforce ``sig-type`` check in ``ValidatorConfig`` (:issue:`4524`) |
| |
| - Fix ``ValidatorConfig`` rule processing bug (:issue:`5145`) |
| |
| - Prevent potential dereferencing of past-the-end iterator in ``Block::value()`` |
| |
| - Fail early in :ndn-cxx:`Block::blockFromValue` if TLV length is zero |
| |
| - Refactor and cleanup of :ndn-cxx:`StatusDatasetContext`, including increase of maximum |
| payload size of each produced segment to 8000 bytes |
| |
| - Improve error reporting when loading a ``Certificate`` or ``SafeBag`` fails |
| |
| - Add API to get the keyword name component for Metadata and Prefix Announcements |
| |
| - Backport C++20 ``std::span`` and convert most APIs to use it |
| |
| - Introduce ``time::{to,from}IsoExtendedString()`` utility functions |
| |
| - Add support for OpenSSL 3.0. Note that because of the API changes, HMAC implementation |
| does not currently work when compiled with OpenSSL 3.0+, use older version of OpenSSL |
| when needed. |
| |
| - Various build system and documentation extension and fixes |
| |
| Deprecations |
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
| |
| - ``Interest::setDefaultCanBePrefix()`` |
| |
| - ``Name::append(Block)`` overload, as it has confusing semantics (:issue:`5186`) |
| |
| - ``ndnsec`` tool aliases: ``ndnsec-certgen``, ``ndnsec-dump-certificate``, |
| ``ndnsec-install-cert``, ``ndnsec-keygen``, ``ndnsec-ls-identity`` |
| |
| Removals |
| ^^^^^^^^ |
| |
| - Previously deprecated ``Signature`` class, its subclasses, and deprecated methods from |
| ``Data``, ``KeyChain``, ``SignatureInfo``, and ``SigningInfo`` |
| |
| - Redundant overloads of ``verifySignature()`` and ``verifyDigest()`` |
| |
| - Previously deprecated ``security/v2`` headers |
| |
| - Previously deprecated ``CommandInterestSigner`` |
| |
| - Unused ``Transport::send()`` overload |
| |
| - Remove HTTP download feature in ``ndnsec cert-install``, as it does not support HTTPS |
| retrieval. The recommended way of installing certificates published over HTTP/HTTPS has |
| been changed to use ``curl`` or ``wget`` (:issue:`4506`) |
