<h2 id="r0.8.3">0.8.3</h2>
<p>Release Date: 2001-01-28</p>
<ul>
<li>
Added input field for search root in connect input form.
</li>
<li>
Check if user trys to do ModRDN on empty DN.
</li>
<li>
Try to locate a LDAP host for a DN or DNS domain with various methods.
See Internet Draft
<blockquote>
"A Taxonomy of Methods for LDAP Clients Finding Servers"
</blockquote>
on <a href="http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/ldapext-charter.html">
LDAPEXT page</a>.
</li>
<li>
New parameter <var>dir_listing_allowed</var> for HTTP server
(stand-alone mode).
</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="r0.8.2">0.8.2</h2>
<p>Release Date: 2001-01-18</p>
<ul>
<li>
Code cleaning:
<ul>
<li>
More clean-ups of exception handling in <var>w2lhandler.py</var>.
</li>
<li>
Do a separate DNS lookup of LDAP host name which
leads to a cleaner exception handling and error
message being more meaningful to user.
</li>
<li>
Fixed displaying the DN of deleted entries. The parent DN
was displayed instead of the entry's DN.
</li>
<li>
Solely use the new string methods of Python 2.0 and
abandoned importing <var>string</var> module whereever possible.
</li>
<li>
Fixed displaying
<var>cRLDistributionPoints.distributionPoint.fullName</var>
as proper URL link when displaying HTML.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
Bug fixes:
<ul>
<li>
Display empty DN as <var>- World -</var> in status line.
</li>
<li>
Fixed building modify list when LDAP server is handling
attribute types case-respecting.
</li>
<li>
Function <var>ldapbase.SearchTree()</var> properly returns
list of Unicode objects now. Affects recursive deletes.
</li>
<li>
Fixed missing parameter when raising
<var>cgiforms.formContentLengthException</var>.
</li>
<li>
Somewhat fixed handling of creating modlist's
with binary attributes involved.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="r0.8.1">0.8.1</h2>
<p>Release Date: 2000-12-20</p>
<ul>
<li>
Bug fixes:
<ul>
<li>
Wrong regex pattern for select lists in <var>cgiforms.py</var> fixed.
</li>
<li>
Some select fields did not use the right charset.
</li>
<li>
Fixed displaying <var>displayName</var> attribute.
</li>
<li>
Fixed <var>ldapbase.SplitRDN()</var> (affected modrdn command).
</li>
<li>
Default of modrdn input field was displayed as HTML.
</li>
<li>
Proper handling of UTF-8 characters in
<var>namingContexts</var> attribute of RootDSE.
</li>
<li>
Handling of form data more robust.
</li>
<li>
Corrected handling of RDNs when DN has only one component.
</li>
<li>
Avoid any LDAP operations before first bind.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="r0.8.0">0.8.0</h2>
<p>Release Date: 2000-12-02</p>
<ul>
<li>
Nice displaying of certificate and CRL attributes including certificate
extensions if at least sub-module asn1 of
<a href="http://www.cnri.reston.va.us/software/pisces/">Pisces</a>
is installed on the system (automatically detected).
Credits go to Jeremy Hylton for his work on the ASN.1 parser and helping me understanding it.
</li>
<li>
New parameter <var>web2ldapcnf.hosts.ldap_def['timeout']</var>
for specifying a timeout (seconds) for search operations.
</li>
<li>
Login not longer mandantory at beginning of session.
User can explictly bind after connecting to server.
</li>
<li>
Avoid making a LDAP connection when not necessary
(e.g. when displaying add form).
</li>
<li>
Displayed LDAP URLs are all URL-quoted now and handling of LDAP URLs
stored in attribute is more robust and smarter.
</li>
<li>
Some efforts were done to browse global directories
in a reasonable manner.
</li>
<li>
Simple support for direct use of LDAP URLs (short hack):<br>
<code>[web2ldap URL]/ldapurl?[LDAP URL]</code><br>
will display the entry or do a search.
</li>
<li>
Gracefully handling of exceptions which make a re-login
of a user necessary: <var>ldap.INSUFFICIENT_ACCESS</var>, <var>ldap.INVALID_CREDENTIALS</var>,
<var>ldap.INAPPROPRIATE_AUTH</var> etc. User can re-login and retry command.
</li>
<li>
Smarter handling of LDAPv3 referrals: Instead of relying on the
referral handling of the underlying lib the referral exceptions
are caught and the user is prompted for new bind DN / password
for connecting to the referred host and repeat the action before
the referral was received.<br>
Credits go to Konstantin Chuguev
for patching python-ldap to do correct error handling
when result() method is called.
</li>
<li>
Compability issues:
<ul>
<li>
web2ldap now makes use of the new Unicode features introduced
in recent Python versions because the handling of different character
encoding is faster and cleaner.<br>
=> You have to upgrade your Python installation at least to
version 2.0.
</li>
<li>
For cleaner exception handling python-ldap prior to 1.8
is not longer supported since the <var>ldap.LDAPError</var>
exception base class is used now. This affects mainly
the Windows platform since I do not know of pre-compiled
python-ldap version later than 1.5. Feel free to contribute!
</li>
<li>
Moved parameters <var>web2ldapcnf.misc.search_attrsonly</var>
and <var>web2ldapcnf.misc.search_attrs</var>
to <var>web2ldapcnf.hosts.ldap_def</var>. You have to adjust
your local configuration files!
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
Code cleaning:
<ul>
<li>
All LDAP-related strings are internally handled as
Unicode string types.
</li>
<li>
Handle more input field stuff with the fine <var>cgiforms</var> module.
</li>
<li>
LDAP session objects. First step towards session handling
with pickeable session objects.
</li>
<li>
Simplified many function calls into module <var>w2lcore</var>.
</li>
<li>
All exception handling of LDAP errors is done in module
<var>w2lhandler</var> except exceptions which needs special
handling in a specific context.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
Bug fixes:
<ul>
<li>
Correct handling of DNs with quoted comma.
</li>
<li>
Some code was too case-sensitive with
handling attribute type names.
</li>
<li>
Fixed some compability issues with Python 1.6+.
</li>
<li>
Fixed some vCard issues. Still not perfect but usable most times.
</li>
<li>
Correct handling of special characters when putting together
LDAP filter string (<a href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2254">RFC 2254</a>).
</li>
<li>
Fixed typo in main exception handling.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
