Noteworthy changes in version 3.0.0 (2024-06-18) [C9/A0/R0]
------------------------------------------------
* API change: For new code, which uses libassuan with nPTH, please
use gpgrt_get_syscall_clamp and assuan_control, instead of the
system_hooks API. Use of ASSUAN_SYSTEM_NPTH is deprecated with new
API version 3. If it's really needed to keep using old
implementation of ASSUAN_SYSTEM_NPTH, you need to change your your
application code, to define
ASSUAN_REALLY_REQUIRE_V2_NPTH_SYSTEM_HOOKS before including
<assuan.h>. For an application which uses version 2 API
(NEED_LIBASSUAN_API=2 in its configure.ac), use of
ASSUAN_SYSTEM_NPTH is still supported. [T5914]
* New function assuan_control. [T6625]
* New function assuan_sock_accept. [T5925]
* New functions assuan_pipe_wait_server_termination and
assuan_pipe_kill_server to support abstraction of process. [T6487]
* Windows support for sendfd/recvfd. [T6236]
* Implement timeout in assuan_sock_connect_byname. [T3302]
* No support for WindowsCE, any more. [T6170]
* New socket flags "linger" and "reuseaddr". [rA87f92fe962]
* Interface changes relative to the 2.5.0 release:

------------------------------------------------
* Now using libtool and builds a DSO.
* Lots of interface cleanups. See below for details of the most
important changes. Here is a quick note on how to upgrade:
For each invocation of the connect or server functions, allocate a
context with assuan_new and use that. Instead of assuan_disconnect
or assuan_deinit_server, call assuan_release. Use
assuan_set_gpg_err_source instead of assuan_set_assuan_err_source.
If you use assuan_pipe_connect with NAME of NULL, you have to
provide a non-NULL ARGV argument and check that against "server" or
"client" to determine which end you got after fork(). If you use
the assuan sock interface, you must call assuan_sock_init after
setting global context defaults. Add a NULL as the last arg to
assuan_register_command.
* Pth support has changed. This now follows the same style as
libgcrypt by setting system hook callbacks.
* Interface changes relative to the 1.0.5 release:

Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.5 (2008-05-25)
------------------------------------------------
* Minor fixes.
* Build library for GNU/Linux as PIC.
Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.4 (2007-12-12)
------------------------------------------------
* New socket wrapper functions to support Unix domain sockets under
Windows.
* New hook feature to enhance the internal I/O functions.
Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.3 (2007-08-24)
------------------------------------------------
* New type assuan_fd_t and constant ASSUAN_INVALID_FD for better W32
support. It does not change the semantics under Unix. Under W32
all file descriptors are now guaranteed to be system handles.
* New functions assuan_process_done and assuan_inquire_ext to support
external event loops.
* Changed the license of the library code back to LGPLv2.1 to support
a bunch of GPLv2(only) software which does not allow the use of
LGPLv3. Note that this is only a temporary change and authors of
GPLv2(only) software are asked to switch to GPLv3 or to add an
exception which allow the use of LPGLv3 software.
Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.2 (2007-07-05)
------------------------------------------------
* Changed license to LGPLv3.
* New flag ASSUAN_CONFIDENTIAL to return the state of
confidential logging.
* Better support for W32.
* Assorted bug fixed and code cleanups.
Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.1 (2006-11-22)
------------------------------------------------
* New function: assuan_set_io_monitor.
* New function: assuan_register_post_cmd_notify.
* Fixed a memory leak.
Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.0 (2006-10-31)
------------------------------------------------
* Finished the manual.
Noteworthy changes in version 0.9.3 (2006-10-10)
------------------------------------------------
* Portability fixes.
* Pth is not anymore linked by means of weak symbol tricks. It is
now required to link to the pth version of libassuan. New autoconf
macros are provided to to check for this. The pth version is only
build if Pth is available.
* configure does now check that descripotor passing is available. A
way to check at runtime for this is also provided
Noteworthy changes in version 0.9.2 (2006-10-04)
------------------------------------------------
* A fix to make CANCEL work again in Pinentries.
Noteworthy changes in version 0.9.1 (2006-10-04)
------------------------------------------------

* Portability fixes.
Noteworthy changes in version 0.9.0 (2006-09-14)
------------------------------------------------
* Internal cleanups to make inclusion of the code into libraries
easier.
* Made clear that the software is under the LGPL.
* New function assuan_set_assuan_err_source. All gpg-error enabled
software should call this right at startup to switch libassuan into
the gpg-error style mode. All error codes are then returned as
gpg-error style codes (GPG_ERR_ASS_* as well as others).
If the new macro _ASSUAN_ONLY_GPG_ERRORS is defned all old
definitions are excluded from assuan.h.
* Logging of hex strings is now limited to 16 bytes. To enable
printing of the full data, a new environment variable
ASSUAN_FULL_LOGGING may be set to any value.
* Removed the assuan_domain_* functions.
* New functions assuan_pipe_connect_ext and assuan_socket_connect_ext
to allow connections on a socketpair and to pass descriptors.
* New function assuan_get_peercred.
