Libite (-lite) v1.9.0

Changes

• Add which(), a C implementation of UNIX which(1)
• Add printheader(), prints a top-like table heading for client tools
• Remove UNUSED() macro, recommended to disable GCC warning instead

Fixes

• Fix issue #6: touch() does not update mtime if file exists
• Fix non-writable tempfile(), now with proper unit test

Libite (-lite) v1.8.3

Changes

• Support absolute path in pidfile(). Needed by, e.g. Inadyn
• Add initial debian/ packaging
• Update README with note on remembering to set umask()

Fixes

• In use-cases when pidfile() is called consecutively, e.g. on
  SIGHUP, recreate PID file if it no longer exists

Libite (-lite) v1.8.2

Changes

• Updated build instructions in README.
• Converted touch(), makedir(), makefifo(), and erase() from macros to
  inline functions. Also removed implicit logging to stderr on error.

Fixes

• Fix small memory leak in pidfile() ... at exit.
• Fixes for building on musl libc

Libite (-lite) v1.8.1

Fixes

• fparseln(), portability fix for NetBSD
• pidfile(), portability fix for NetBSD and OpenBSD

Libite (-lite) v1.8.0

Changes

• Change return type of fsendfile() from size_t to ssize_t
• Change dir() semantics: do not assert and always return error
  without calling perror() or similar.
• The OpenBSD pidfile() function's prefix path _PATH_VARRUN
  can now be overridden by setting the hidden __pidfile_path
  variable. E.g., to _PATH_TMP. Make sure read the docs!
• Add new unit test framework make check.

Fixes

• Fix bad path in new strndupa() header file.
• Add missing progress bar API's to lite.h

Libite (-lite) v1.7.0

Changes

• Add support for GNU strdupa(), for Inadyn on NetBSD.
• Add support for GNU strndupa() and strnlen()

Fixes

• Fix mkpath() to handle creating relative directories.

Libite v1.6.0

Changes

• Add support for NetBSD fparaseln() for the benefit of Mg
• Add support for OpenBSD reallocarray() for the benefit of Mg
• Constify fisdir() argument

Libite v1.5.1

Minor fix release.

Changes

• Update README.md, add help when libite is used in autotools projects.
  Spell checking and minor cleanup.

Fixes

• Activate use of utimensat() when pidfile() is called multiple
  times. This reduces the overhead of calling open+write+close to
  simply updating the mtime of the PID file.
• Westermo fixes for fcopyfile(): nothing copied on embedded PPC
  system when using tmpfile() as source.

Libite v1.5.0

This release changes the header file namespace. Apologies for any problems this may cause!

Changes

• Change namespace for header files: libite/ to lite/, e.g. using
  pkg-config your C program must now #include <lite/lite.h>
• Update pidfile() to use utimensat() to update atime+mtime instead
  of opening and writing PID again. Less overhead and nanonsecond res.

Libite v1.4.4

Changes

• Add ibite.pc.in for pkg-config support.

Fixes

• Fix issue #3: tempfile() fails with bad O_TMPFILE on some embedded
  targets, in particular PowerPC. On systems with older GLIBC but with
  a sufficiently new kernel O_TMPFILE is missing and the local libite
  definition was wrong, hard coded for x86. Fixed by Johan Askerin.
