Changes since version 0.2.0
Release date: February 2, 2015
New features:
- Build
- The code now requires C++11. The minimum supported gcc version
is 4.6, as earlier versions do not have proper support for C++11
features.
- Base
- Enable detailed version information when built from shallow
clone or tarball (Issue 1915)
- Make default transport configurable (Issue 2189)
- Add ability to do partial Name comparison (Issue 2090)
- Security
- Add support for KeyDigest key locator (Issue 1426)
- Add a method to get KeyDigest from a PublicKey instance (Issue 1964)
- Add support for KeyChain to sign Interest using SHA256 digest
(Issue 2218)
- Add ndnsec-dsk-gen tool to generate a pair of Data-Signing-Key
(DSK) for the specified identity (Issue 2246)
- Pair-up PIB and TPM in KeyChain: PIB remembers the last used TPM
type/location, which is used during KeyChain construction
(unless overriden) (Issue 2242)
- Wire encoding
- Add support for application-defined meta information blocks
(Issue 2021)
- Introduce new name::Component::is* methods to allow checking if
the name component follows the specific naming convention
without relying on the exception handling (Issue 2088)
- Add definition of producer-generated NACK (Issue 2111)
- Add std::hash<Name> specialization to support unordered_map
container (Issue 2147)
- Add support for ImplicitSha256DigestComponent (Issue 1640)
- Allow tagging Interest and Data packets with arbitrary
information (Issue 2336)
- Management
- Support NFD face query operation (Issue 2085)
- Miscellaneous tools
- Add a new helper to calculate digests over dynamic inputs (Issue 1934)
- Add DNS resolver helper (Issue 1918)
- Import and re-license Ethernet and FaceUri classes from NFD
codebase, add FaceUri canonization support for udp, tcp, and
ether schemas (Issue 1994)
- Add per-application in-memory storage with LRU, LFU, and FIFO
replacement policies (Issue 1940)
- Add ability to specialize system and steady clocks (e.g., for
unit tests and simulation purposes) (Issue 2158)
- Expose DummyClientFace as public API
- New IndentedStream helper class to simplify writing to streams
with the specified indents or prefixes (Issue 2238)
- New Signal class template as an enhanced version of the
deprecated EventEmitter (Issue 2279)
- New scheduler::ScopedEventId helper to automatically cancel
scheduled events upon destruction (Issue 2442)
- New NetworkMonitor helper to detect network state changes (Issue 2443)
Updates and bug fixes:
- Base
- Prevent flags being set for rib/unregister command (Issue 1945)
- Fix segfault caused by Face::unregisterPrefix when
registeredPrefixId does not exist
- Add explicit internal KeyChain to Face class. KeyChain
previously existed in the Face as part of NFD controller class.
(Issue 2039)
- Properly disable assertions in release builds (Issue 2135)
- Connect to Transport during construction of Face instance (Issue 2318)
- Wire encoding
- Fix segfault when decoding empty Exclude element (Issue 1970)
- Provide EqualityComparable concept for Exclude element
- Correct Marker in Name::appendVersion() (Issue 2086)
- Ensure that wire-encoding errors are inherited from tlv::Error
(Issue 1983)
- Management
- Replace FaceFlags with individual fields in face management data
structures (Issue 1992)
- ndn::nfd::Controller extended to allow generating ControlCommand
for remote prefix registration (Issue 2039)
- Change ForwarderStatus.NfdVersion to string (Issue 2003)
- Security
- Fix ndnsec-cert-gen to correctly infer prefix before KEY
component (Issue 2052)
- Help message corrections in ndnsec-cert-dump, ndnsec-cert-gen,
and ndnsec-key-gen (Issue 2052)
- Accept --sign-id and --cert-prefix in ndnsec-cert-revoke (Issue 2058)
- Changes output format of ndnsec-cert-revoke to base64 encoding
(Issue 2059)
- Add a new (safer) option to ndnsec-cert-gen allowing inclusion
of additional information blocks into the certificate. The new
--signed-info parameter makes minimum assumptions, treating text
before first space as OID and the rest as the associated string
with this OID.
- Make Face optional in Validator class (Issue 2124)
- Display signature information when printing a certificate (Issue 2196)
- Handle certificate decoding error in validation process (Issue 2212)
- Fix segmentation fault in ndnsec-sign-req (Issue 2211)
- Allow verbose option in ndnsec-list (Issue 2197)
- Allow generation of DSK using ndnsec-key-gen (Issue 2247)
- Allow ndnsec-key-gen to generate ECDSA keys (Issue 2248)
- Fix memory leak in SecPublicInfoSqlite3 (Issue 2253)
- Properly report status of ndnsec-delete execution (Issue 2275)
- Miscellaneous tools
- Fix incorrect tag map in tlvdump tool
- Change to default resolver behavior in util::dns::Resolver
(Issue 2415)
- Documentation
- Update of tutorials and installation instructions
- Rename manpage of client.conf to ndn-client.conf (Issue 1967)
- Updated and extended ndn-cxx code style:
- add rules for some C++11 constructs
- prefer BOOST_ASSERT and static_assert
- Improve example applications (Issue 1976)
- Tests
- Improve security unit test cases (Issue 1683)
- Embedding CI build and test running scripts into the repository
- Partial unit test coverage for Face class (previously covered
only by integration tests) (Issue 1947)
- Improve stability of unit tests by using UnitTestTime (wall
clock independent time) (Issue 2152)
- Build
- Redesign the way default compiler flags are determined (Issue 2209)
- Support tools and examples with multiple translation units
(Issue 2344)
- Disable installation of internal headers and headers of the
disabled components (2266, and 2269)
- Enable conditional compilation based on presence of getpass()
function
