6 + libstatgrab 0.10 (20 May 2004)
7 +
8 + * All function and structure names now follow a standardised
9 +   naming scheme. This will break compatibility with existing
10 +   programs. To use pre-0.10 compatibility functions:
11 +
12 +     #define SG_ENABLE_DEPRECATED
13 +     #include <statgrab.h>
14 +
15 + * New process stats function added to provide full details
16 +   on currently running processes. See sg_get_process_stats
17 +   for details.
18 + * Compare functions provided for process, network, and disk io
19 +   statistics. These can be used with qsort.
20 + * Error reporting functions added. See sg_get_error and
21 +   associated functions.
22 + * Support added for NetBSD 2.0.
23 + * Lots of code tidying.
24 + * Python bindings now exist in a separate package:
25 +     http://www.i-scream.org/pystatgrab/
26 +
27 + libstatgrab 0.9 (10 March 2004)
28 +
29 + * Added network interface information:
30 +     speed, duplex, up/down.
31 + * Added more statistics on network interfaces:
32 +     i/o packets, i/o errors, and collisions.
33 + * Added support for OpenBSD 3.3.
34 + * Added support for DragonFly BSD 1.0.
35 + * No longer need elevated privileges on most platforms:
36 +     FreeBSD 5, NetBSD, and OpenBSD.
37 +     (see PLATFORMS file for details on which OS's need elevated privileges)
38 + * Minor changes to the return types of the python bindings functions.
39 +
40 + * PLEASE NOTE: this will break binary (only) compatibility.
41 +
42 + libstatgrab 0.8.2 (11 February 2004)
43 +
44 + * Fixes to add support for Solaris 6.
45 + * Python bindings available in extras directory.
46 + * Some tidying up of code.
47 +
48 + libstatgrab 0.8.1 (21 January 2004)
49 +
50 + * The library part of libstatgrab is now released under the LGPL.
51 +   (the tools are still released under the GPL)
52 + * File descriptor leak fixed on Linux.
53 + * strlcpy/strlcat functions added for Solaris 7 to fix compile.
54 + * statgrab_init error behaviour fixed (primarly for Solaris 7).
55 + * Some incorrect #includes moved.
56 + * Significant speed increases to the Solaris disk mapping code in
57 +   statgrab_init, which improves startup time.
58 + * Minor fix for saidar's -d flag and negative numbers.
59 +
60 + libstatgrab 0.8 (06 January 2004)
61 +
62 + * Support for Linux 2.6.
63 + * Support for Cygwin.
64 + * Use cNtNdNsN names on Solaris instead of sdN.
65 + * Fixes and optimisations to saidar.
66 + * Fixes to the --disable-saidar and --disable-statgrab configure flags.
67 + * New function to drop elevated privileges some OS's require.
68 +   (after using the init function)
69 +
70 + libstatgrab 0.7 (22 October 2003)
71 +
72   * Support for NetBSD 1.6.x.
73   * FreeBSD code optimised.
74   * Initialise function allows programs to drop extra privileges (on *BSD).
75   * saidar now works even if it can't get all statistics.
76   * List of known file systems increased on Linux and *BSD.
77   * Minor bug fixes.
78 + * Tested (and working) on Solaris 9 x86, Linux 2.2 on alpha, and
