libstatgrab 0.10.1 (20 July 2004) |
| 7 |
+ |
|
| 8 |
+ |
* Use DESTDIR correctly when setting permissions at install time. |
| 9 |
+ |
* Fix disk stats to work with OpenBSD 3.5. |
| 10 |
+ |
* Fix disk stats on NetBSD 2.0 (statvfs instead of statfs). |
| 11 |
+ |
* Fix memory leak in process stats on NetBSD 2.0. |
| 12 |
+ |
* Add vxfs (veritas file system) to list of know file systems |
| 13 |
+ |
on Solaris. |
| 14 |
+ |
* Add more variables to the pkg-config file to suggest suitable |
| 15 |
+ |
ownership and permissions for binaries using libstatgrab. |
| 16 |
+ |
* Make sure statgrab.h can't be included twice. |
| 17 |
+ |
* Fix statgrab to display network interface names even if they |
| 18 |
+ |
don't have IO stats (like the loopback interface on Solaris). |

| 20 |
+ |
|
| 21 |
+ |
libstatgrab 0.10 (20 May 2004) |
| 22 |
+ |
|
| 23 |
+ |
* All function and structure names now follow a standardised |
| 24 |
+ |
naming scheme. This will break compatibility with existing |
| 25 |
+ |
programs. To use pre-0.10 compatibility functions: |
| 26 |
+ |
|
| 27 |
+ |
#define SG_ENABLE_DEPRECATED |
| 28 |
+ |
#include <statgrab.h> |
| 29 |
+ |
|
| 30 |
+ |
* New process stats function added to provide full details |
| 31 |
+ |
on currently running processes. See sg_get_process_stats |
| 32 |
+ |
for details. |
| 33 |
+ |
* Compare functions provided for process, network, and disk io |
| 34 |
+ |
statistics. These can be used with qsort. |
| 35 |
+ |
* Error reporting functions added. See sg_get_error and |
| 36 |
+ |
associated functions. |
| 37 |
+ |
* Support added for NetBSD 2.0. |
| 38 |
+ |
* Lots of code tidying. |
| 39 |
+ |
* Python bindings now exist in a separate package: |

| 44 |
+ |
* Added network interface information: |

+ |
* Added more statistics on network interfaces: |
| 47 |
+ |
i/o packets, i/o errors, and collisions. |
| 48 |
+ |
* Added support for OpenBSD 3.3. |
| 49 |
+ |
* Added support for DragonFly BSD 1.0. |
| 50 |

FreeBSD 5, NetBSD, and OpenBSD. |
| 52 |
+ |
(see PLATFORMS file for details on which OS's need elevated privileges) |
| 53 |
+ |
* Minor changes to the return types of the python bindings functions. |
| 54 |
+ |
|
| 55 |
+ |
* PLEASE NOTE: this will break binary (only) compatibility. |
