This release offers bigfixes and minor changes. Also, autotools requirements have been lowered.

You can download it here.

Version 0.1.11 2018-10-30

  • portability: remove issues associated with AC_FUNC_MALLOC
    This configure.ac macro is known to cause issues and not provide real
    benefit. Thus many projects have removed it, as we have for most of
    the rsyslog projects. libestr seemed to have overlooked.
    This came up when troubleshooting issues on IBM AIX.
  • make build on AIX
    Thanks to github user purnimam1 for the patch
  • bugfix: es_str2num mishandling empty strings
    If es_str2num() receives an empty string, misadressing happens.
    Under extreme conditions, this theoretically can lead to a segfault.
    Thanks to Jan Gerhards for the patch.

  • CI/Travis: now also test on osX

libestr 0.1.7

Thursday, October 10th, 2013

libestr 0.1.7 has been released.

This release offers a critical bugfix.

You can download it here.

Version 0.1.7 2013-10-10

  • bugfix: invalid comparison results for different-length strings
    es_strcmp, es_strcasecmp, es_strbufcmp, and es_strcasebufcmp returned incorrect results if the first string was smaller than the second. In that case, the first string was always assumed to be lexially lower than the second. If the second string was larger than the first, the same issue occured. This did not affect equal comparisons, but LT/GT checks lead to invalid result, with potentially harsh consequences (e.g. qsort() did not work properly). This bug is present for a very long time, potentially down to the initial implementation of libestr.
