Changes between 0.6.0 and 0.6.1:

--------------------------------

This highlights some important changes since the most recent numbered release.

Refer to http://redmine.ccnx.org/projects/ccn/versions/10 for more details on

CCNx 0.6.1.

* Improvements in interest forwarding (#100321) - Introduce new PIT data structure. Major

revision to the way ccnd manages pending interests and improve way interest lifetimes are

accounted. In the default strategy, preserve more of the ordering. This change removes

the "hack" that allowed a few similar interests from the same source to pass through.

This may affect applications that attempt to do hole-filling by resending interests prior

to their timeout. For an example, see #100806.

* TCP for libccn connections (#100760) - Make it possible to configure only TCP for local

connect with -DCCN_LOCAL_TCP, as alternative to Unix-domain socket. This offers a way for

devices with sandboxed filesystems such as within the Android context to get around the issue

of sharing the UNIX domain file descriptor to connect to ccnd.

* C implementation of text chat (ccnc) (#100787, #100790, #100791, #100793) - The *ccnc* utility

is a text-based community chat program. Works with existing CCNx chat clients.

* Improvements to Android CCNx Services stability (#100784, #100645, 100778, #100781) - Fixed

a number of Android CCNx Services stability issues, including refresh updates to IP address

in the UI when there an intent CONNECTIVITY_UPDATE is received, improve number of checks on

service startup to print useful diagnostics to the user, and avoid problems that may prevent

startup and proper functioning of CCNx. Added About menu item to get CCNx version information

and added a Reset menu item to clear error states and clear startup/shutdown errors.

* Issues Resolved:

* Bug #100321: Improve efficiency interest suppression

* Bug #100358: DataUtils getBytesFromFile and large files

* Bug #100374: test.repo.Misc.java has bad logic

Changes between 0.5.1 and 0.6.0:

--------------------------------

This highlights some important changes since the most recent numbered release.

Refer to http://redmine.ccnx.org/projects/ccn/versions/9 for more details on

CCNx 0.6.0.

* A new varargs constructor has been added to ContentNames, a new Component

class has been created, and ContentNameProvider and ComponentProvider

interfaces have been provided to simplify the generation and minimize the

overhead of building ContentNames. The Component class provides an

immutable Component type, which encapsulates the component as a byte[]

array, that is designed to hold static components to be passed into

ComponentName constructors. In code, a Component should be used wherever

possible in lieu of a static final byte[] array or a static final String,

to avoid unnecessary copying.

The ContentName varargs constructor, and the ContentNameProvider and

ComponentProvider interfaces, allow classes to pass ContentNames and

Components directly into the ContentName constructor.

Most of the static component-related methods that previously existed under

ContentName have been moved to the new Component class. The old methods

remain available but are deprecated; it is recommended that code be changed

to use the new static methods under Component. Please see Component,

ContentName, and ContentNameProvider documentation for more information.

Changes between 0.4.2 and 0.5.0:

--------------------------------

This highlights some important changes since the most recent numbered release.

Refer to http://redmine.ccnx.org/projects/ccn/versions/5 for more details on

CCNx 0.5.0.

* Experience shows that many applications need local persistent storage. With

the introduction of Repository-based synchronization, we now expect that

most nodes will use a local Repository running alongside their local ccnd.

As a result, we have changed defaults for storing content in a Repository

so that those store operations target only the local Repository.

* This release introduces an updated version of the Repository, with much

improved scalability, that is capable of easily handling content

collections many gigabytes in size. The new Repo, named ccnr, is written

in C, has a disk-resident index, and has much higher performance, a smaller

footprint, and faster start-up times.

The startup and shutdown procedures have changed, as have some of the

configuration options and the procedure for obtaining debug information.

See doc/manpages/ccnr.1.html for more information about starting, stopping,

using, and configuring Repo, Repo policies, and links to Repository

protocol descriptions.

While the Repo startup procedure has changed, it still must be started

explicitly.

* This release introduces Sync, a mechanism for CCN components to define

collections of named data in Repositories, and for automatically

synchronizing copies of identically defined collections in neighboring

nodes. Sync is currently embedded in Repo, but will be made available

separately in the future.

Sync is started automatically when Repo starts unless configured otherwise.

See the man page for SyncTest in doc/manpages/SyncTest.1.html for more

information about Sync, and how to use SyncTest, a command line tool for

testing Sync and creating collections. See

doc/technical/SynchronizationProtocol.html for a description of the CCNx

Create Collection Protocol and the internal protocol used by Sync Agents

in neighboring nodes to keep their collections in synchrony.

* The default for a RepositoryFlowControl has changed from allowing any

Repository to answer to requiring only a local (connected to the same ccnd

as the application) Repository.

Direct users of the RepositoryFlowControl class can control the behavior

through a (previously present) boolean in the constructor.

Users of CCNNetworkObject can still control the local/non-local behavior

through the SaveType REPOSITORY (allows non-local Repositories) and

LOCALREPOSITORY.

The SystemConfiguration option FC_LOCALREPOSITORY is unchanged and can

still be used to force a local Repository. It cannot force permission to

use a non-local Repository.

ccnputfile/ccnputmeta has been updated to have an -allownonlocal option.

The default behavior has also changed to require a local Repository if no

command-line option is given.

Changes between 0.3.0 and 0.4.0:

--------------------------------

Refer to http://redmine.ccnx.org/projects/ccn/versions/1 for more details on

CCNx 0.4.0.

* The 'ping' responder in ccnd is deprecated. For compatibility, it is still

present by default, but further use should be phased out. The libraries

have been changed to use local service discovery instead. The java option

"org.ccnx.ping.timeout" is replaced by "org.ccnx.ccndid.timeout".

(100187, 100188, 100189)

* Responsibility for key saving has been shifted from the client library to

repo. The Java API did not change but, as the result of a protocol change,

the new library is not compatible with the old repo. (100288)

* The Java library now uses TCP to communicate with ccnd, rather than UDP,

to avoid problems and inefficiencies caused by UPD packet drops. (100078)

* An explicit lifetime element has been added to Interest messages in order

to give applications control of their timeouts. (100127)

* FlowControl addNameSpace is now logged at info in the constructor. (100180)

* ContentObjects are now created earlier to improve throughput by more

efficiently balancing tasks between different threads. (100197)

* Performance of writes has been improved by avoiding copies when the

application is only calling write with integral multiples of the segment

size. (100206)

* The ccnseqwriter command has been installed and documented. (100227)

* The traffic meters in the ccnd status display have been improved by

metering activity in both directions, splitting out by content/interest,

and showing rates as well as totals. (100256)

* Android ccnChat uses a multicast interface by default, which does not work

well in the emulator. To address this, an option to use a point-to-point

face has been added to the configuration screen. (100267)

* A sequence number has been added to each packet, encoded so that it is

distinguishable from interest and content packets, that allows the

receiving side to detect missing packets. (100275)

* The CommonOutput doPut() method now returns the version written so command

line utilities know the version name just created. In addition, logging in

the while() loop in do_write has been isolated for improved performance.

(100276)

* java.library.path and -Xcheck:jni are now forwarded to daemon (100279)

* Stream access for CCN segments has been added to the C library. (100283)

* Support was added to the library for splitting an interest when the

exclusion list gets too big. (100290)

* The ccncat command was converted to use the ccn_fetch library in order to

take advantage of pipelining. (100291)

* Efficiency of flow controller was improved with more fine grained locking.

(100299)

* Counters were added to the CCNNetworkManager to facilitate debugging.

(100300)

* stats and clearstats signals were added to Repo. (100302)

* A categorized statistics interface was added. (100306)

* The efficiency of getRegisteredPrefix was improved. (100309)

* An example of ccnb encoding of a data packet payload in Java was created.

(100312)

* The KeyDirectory class was split into a KeyDirectory base class and a

PrincipalKeyDirectory subclass to make the KeyDirectory structure

available for purposes other than Access Control. (100316)

* The HTTP proxy demo code was added. (100322)

* The performance of ContentName.fromURI() was improved. (100323)

* Facility-based logStackTrace and logException methods were added. (100326)

* Additional tests were added to verify that the InterestListener continues

to auto-refresh the interest even when an InterestFilter for the same exact

name as the InterestListener is closed on the same handle. (100327)

* Performance was improved for ContentName.componentParseURI(). (100331)

* A StatusResponse message type was added to allow such things as an error

response for prefix registrations. (100341)

* CCN_FORW_TAP was added to repo prefix registration. (100342)

* Repo no longer unnecessarily uses multiple Interest handlers. (100343)

* Implemented more useful interactions between forwarding flags. In

particular, the definition of CCN_FORW_TAP includes the provision that it

is not subject to capture, and flags that have an effect on the prefix as a

whole (including CCN_FORW_CAPTURE) do not change behavior depending on the

setting of CCN_FORW_ACTIVE. (100345)

* Synchronization in InterestTable was improved. (100353)

* CCNNetworkManager was updated to limit thread creation for handlers.

(100354)

* The following enhancements were made to ccntestloop: (100356)

- Accumulate testout directories outside of javasrc

- Read config via script

- Handle start/stop/restart/status verbs

- All output to files (when using start verb)

- Handle kill better

- Record pid

- Allow configuration of port range

* Instances of ccnd are now allocated dynamically to allow more testing

flexibility. (100363)

* The log command in utilities now sets the level for all facilities.

(100364)

* Java interest handling code now has a log facility. (100366)

* A Java library routine that sets the ccnd caches stale has been created to

ensure that readbacks are actually from repo and not from the cache.

(100367)

* Logging between CCNNetworkManagers and CCNNetworkChannel has been made

unique. Note that there is no relationship between CCNNetworkManager ids

and Channel ids. (100432)

* openssl for Android builds are now based on 1.0.0d. (100438)

* ccnChat was updated to publish its keys under the chat channel namespace.

(100439)

* A testing framework was added to make assertions in child threads

catchable. (100454)

* ccnd is now able to sense the presence of other end (i.e., to distinguish

between loss of connection and simple lack of incoming data). (100461)

* Added a junit to check that prefixes are as expected in the FIB when

doing localRepoSync. (100464)

* [Support] Instructions in the README for ccnchat were enhanced. (100338)

* [Support] Description of forwarding flags used in

ccn_set_interest_filter_with_flags (100467)

* Issues Resolved:

Changes between 0.2.0 and 0.3.0:

--------------------------------

* Android support. This release includes support for Android 2.1 platform

development. (100246)

* Self-registration protocol. This functionality allows clients to register

the prefixes for interests they wish to receive. (100071, 100072, 100073)

The old form of self-registration (operating on the prefix

ccnx:/ccnx/reg/self) has been removed. (100114)

* Prefix registration on incoming connections. For a ccnd to act as a hub

(as in a hub-and-spoke configuration) there needs to be a way to get prefix

registration on incoming connections. Eventually, routing agents will

perform this operation. This implementation retains the 'flooding' behavior

of earlier releases for selected prefixes. NOTE: this requires explicit

additional configuration via CCND_AUTOREG setting. (100225)

* ccnd_destroy(). This functionality provides improved flexibility beyond

exit() to free up all resources. (100051)

* destroyface(). Implementation of the previously documented functionality.

(100068)

* ccnChat improvements:

* This release changes ccnchat() to display user friendly names instead

of partial key digest (100214).

* ccnchat is refactored to be re-usable, called from the ccnChat.java GUI

and the ccnChatNet.java module. It is also available on the command line:

bin/ccnchat -text namespace

(100234).

* ccnchat now verifies the first packet: if verification fails, it rejects

that version and looks for a later one. (100163)

* Performance improvements in CCNNetworkObject. This release includes a

revamp of the network objects including a few major API changes (100088):

* Write constructors create flow controllers at construction time, leaving

lazy creation for read constructors. Write constructors make/take a FC

start listening for interests for their base name immediately (if they

know it)

* The repository is the default behavior for network objects, rather than

"raw".

* Support a customized DTAG dictionary. This release changes the

ccn_ccnbtoxml and ccn_xmltoccnb tools so that a customized dictionary could

be provided at runtime; this enables the tools to be used for protocols

that live outside of the CCNx base. (100129)

* Key naming. This release defines the KeyProfile (100055) and uses it for

key ids, guids, and other component types (100131). This change is

incompatible with existing header naming; backward compatibility is enabled

by default.

* Still-pending interests behavior. This release changes how ccnd keeps track

of the outbound faces for an interest. In the new representation,

pe->outbound is kept in send order instead of the reverse, and the new

index pe->sent is advanced as the faces are used. This leaves a trail of

the faces that have been used already, giving more flexibility in altering

the outbound list to the right of pe->sent. (100103)

* Repository publishes public key. Any app that wants to depend on name

enumeration, checked writes, etc, needs to be able to validate who a

repository is. This release includes publishing the repository key using

localhost key discovery, making it easier to configure where the repository

publishes its key. (100144)

* javax.xml streams. Removed as many dependencies as possible such that their

use is isolated to the text xml encoder/decoder. (100053)

* Access control to stream/object encryption. The access control system

allows you to assign keys to content/recipients, and automatically retrieve

keys. In this release, the output and input streams (and the network

objects that use them) retrieve keys and automatically encrypt content.

(100063)

* Bulk import to repo. This release supports bulk importing of a sequence of

content objects (data) from a file in a single operation. The file must

contain content objects in wire format. The repository can incorporate the

file as a new storage file directly if that is compatible with its store

format. (100210)

* Local repo save and save-type override. This release supports objects and

streams to be written to a local (same device) repo (100213). In addition,

it implements an environment variable to allow objects to be saved in a

local repository even if they were generically coded to be written to

any/multiple repos (100223).

* Localhost tcp peers considered friendly. Now ccnd considers tcp connections

from localhost to be "friendly" and only considers incoming localhost udp

traffic to be "friendly" if it starts out with a heartbeat packet. (100120)

* Next-neighbor scope. For applications that want to be assured that they are

communicating only with immediately neighboring machines, this release

defines a new allowed Scope value in the interests. (Scope = 2) (100123)

* EnumeratedNameList methods. This release includes methods to replace

deprecated methods in EnumeratedNameList. (100230)

* Capture-prefix flag. In the FIB, if a shorter registration has the

CCN_FORW_CHILD_INHERIT set, a registration for a longer match can't be used

to prevent the interest from being propagated. This release includes a flag

that can be applied on the longer prefix to override the effect of

CHILD_INHERIT on the shorted prefixes. (100116)

* Prefix registration using a ContentName. In this release, the

PrefixRegistrationManager accepts a ContentName object for the prefix to

register in addition to a URI encoded string. (100186)

* Multicast traffic. ccnd is now able to set up multicast using the standard

ccnd socket. This involved changing the way ccnd keeps track of the sending

side when the multicast cannot be done using a single socket. Instead of

keeping 2 fds per face, ccnd now keeps 1 fd and a faceid to be used for

datagram sends. Because the faceids are never reused, the bookkeeping

becomes simpler.

A user-visible side effect of this is that there are now

faces visible in the status display that are not used for ccnx traffic.

These represent the stream listeners and the datagram sockets that are

shared among other faces. They carry the face flag CCN_FACE_PASSIVE.

* Timeouts. Timeouts are now settable for situations which may require longer

than usual timeouts. (100153)

* Key cache. You can set a variable to control whether or not to save/load

the key cache. This variable is set to false by default. (100154)

* ccn directory location. libccn now uses the CCNX_DIR environment variable.

* Compatibility with openssl-1.0.0beta4 and following. ccn is now compatible

with the STACK_OF macro and related changes in the OpenSSL code. (100095)

* Local service discovery protocol. This release introduces the

CCN_FORW_LOCAL forwarding flag. The presence of this flag in a FIB entry

marks the namespace as local to the host (more specifically, to apps

directly connected to the ccnd in question). This is in support of

implementing a host-local namespace useful for local service discovery.

The ccnd does its best to make sure that content within such a namespace

comes only from local apps, and is delivered only to local apps.

There is one known flaw in the current implementation, namely that an

off-machine attacker could cause a stale content object in the local

space to become fresh again. To do this, the attacker would have to

already have a copy of the C.O., which was supposed to be machine-local.

Thus there must also be some collusion going on for this to happen.

* Logging changes. This release includes a number of changes to logging

configuration and content:

* Log messages use the facility name for the logger name instead of

org.ccnx.ccn.CCNHandle for everything. This change makes it easier to

find specific facility related messages in large log files. The

DEFAULT_APPLICATION_CLASS must be a prefix in the Logging namespace of

the other loggers so that they inherit the handlers added to it. (100185)

* ccntestloop now keeps logs for failed runs and the last few successes,

and deletes the rest. (100220)
