Removing code is _always_ a good idea. Less code, less chance of bugs. - -- Robert - - -Wednesday, August 29, 2001 --------------------------- - -There has been a tonne of work done on tinyproxy since the beginning -of last week. I have been releasing minor-minor-minor point releases, -but the changes in this release constitute a minor-minor point -release. Please see the ChangeLog for detail descriptions of all the -changes, but here is a brief list. - -The most serious fix is to the DNS caching system. There was a memory -leak in the system whenever a domain was already in the database, but -had expired. The new domain information was placed in the database, -but the old information wasn't freed. - -The second change is in regard to the regular expression library. For -a while now tinyproxy has included it's own library (the GNU version) -in case the system did not have a working copy. Due to a bug in the -configure.in script the included REGEX library was being used even if -a working copy was detected. This was making tinyproxy larger than it -needed. - -I would suggest that everyone upgrade to this version; especially -anyone who is still running 1.4.0 or below. - -- Robert
