6 + PLANS: We're now working towards a 1.0 release which is where we plan
7 +       to stabilise the API. We'll be doing test releases before hand,
8 +       but as always we'll like to hear about any bugs found in the
9 +       current release.
10 +
11 + libstatgrab 0.14 (?? December 2006)
12 + * Fix memory stats on OpenBSD.
13 + * Add colour support to saidar.
14 +     (Thanks to Angelina Carlton)
15 + * Fix CPU stats on Solaris - swap and iowait were incorrectly reported.
16 + * Fix kstat related memory leaks on Solaris.
17 +     (Thanks to Javier Donaire)
18 + * Fix network stats on some unusual Solaris setups.
19 + * Fix process time_spent on Linux.
20 +     (Thanks to Fred Barnes)
21 + * Make interface up status check the link status as well.
22 +     (Thanks to Michelangelo Vassallo)
23 + * Fix build on NetBSD 3.
24 +     (Thanks to Wijnand Wiersma)
25 + * Rework curses detection code in the configure script.
26 +
27 + libstatgrab 0.13 (19 March 2006)
28 + * Fix build problems with recent linux kernels.
29 + * Make saidar truncate disk/inteface/mount names to fit in display.
30 + * Add WIN32 support using MINGW (not widely tested).
31 + * Fix network interface up/down status on Solaris.
32 + * Add extern "C" to header file to make linking with C++ code easier.
33 + * Fix statgrab to cope with filesystem paths containing dots.
34 + * Make NFS a legal filesystem type on all platforms.
35 + * A few minor build fixes.
36 +
37 + libstatgrab 0.12 (31 July 2005)
38 + * More details added to filesystem statistics.
39 +     (Patches provided by Roman Neuhauser)
40 + * Rework Linux partition detection.
41 + * Fix compile error in network stats on Linux 2.6.
42 +     (Patches provided by Scott Lampert)
43 + * Change name of duplex value in network interface stats.
44 +     NOTE: this minor change breaks the API.
45 + * Manual pages for saidar, statgrab and the other tools.
46 + * Fix minor typo in statgrab usage output.
47 + * Support for Solaris 10.
48 + * Support for FreeBSD 7.
49 +
50 + libstatgrab 0.11.1 (03 March 2005)
51 + * Add NFS to list of supported filesystems.
52 + * Fix reporting of network interface duplex settings on Linux.
53 + * Fix saidar to support negative FS usage.
54 +
55 + libstatgrab 0.11 (09 November 2004)
56 + * Add support for HP-UX 11.11.
57 +    (Patches provided by Roy Keene)
58 + * Minor fixes to statgrab mrtg tools.
59 + * Minor fixes to saidar.
60 + * Minor code cleanups and fixes to libstatgrab.
61 +
62 + libstatgrab 0.10.3 (24 August 2004)
63 +
64 + * Add -f flag to statgrab to display floating-point numbers multiplied
65 +   by an integer.
66 + * Add -K, -M and -G flags to statgrab to show byte counts in kibibytes,
67 +   mebibytes or gibibytes.
68 + * Make statgrab-make-mrtg-config use the new flags to scale extremely
69 +   large or small numbers so that mrtg can handle them.
70 + * Make statgrab-make-mrtg-config automatically detect network interface
71 +   speeds.
72 + * Add support for FreeBSD 6.0-CURRENT.
73 +
74 + libstatgrab 0.10.2 (27 July 2004)
75 +
76 + * Fix shared library version that when backwards in 0.10.1.
77 +
78 + libstatgrab 0.10.1 (26 July 2004)
79 +
80 + * Use DESTDIR correctly when setting permissions at install time.
81 + * Fix disk stats to work with OpenBSD 3.5.
82 + * Fix disk stats on NetBSD 2.0 (statvfs instead of statfs).
83 + * Fix memory leak in process stats on NetBSD 2.0.
84 + * Add vxfs (Veritas filesystem) to list of known filesystems
85 +   on Solaris.
86 + * Add more variables to the pkg-config file to suggest suitable
87 +   ownership and permissions for binaries using libstatgrab.
88 + * Make sure statgrab.h can safely be included twice.
89 + * Fix statgrab to display network interface names even if they
90 +   don't have IO stats (like the loopback interface on Solaris).
91 + * Add error reporting function that grabs errno.
92 +
93 + libstatgrab 0.10 (20 May 2004)
94 +
95 + * All function and structure names now follow a standardised
96 +   naming scheme. This will break compatibility with existing
97 +   programs. To use pre-0.10 compatibility functions:
98 +
99 +     #define SG_ENABLE_DEPRECATED
100 +     #include <statgrab.h>
101 +
102 + * New process stats function added to provide full details
103 +   on currently running processes. See sg_get_process_stats
104 +   for details.
105 + * Compare functions provided for process, network, and disk io
106 +   statistics. These can be used with qsort.
107 + * Error reporting functions added. See sg_get_error and
108 +   associated functions.
109 + * Support added for NetBSD 2.0.
110 + * Lots of code tidying.
111 + * Python bindings now exist in a separate package:
112 +     http://www.i-scream.org/pystatgrab/
113 +
114   libstatgrab 0.9 (10 March 2004)
115  
116   * Added network interface information:
# Line 80 | Line 188 | libstatgrab 0.5.1 (09 September 2003)
188   * Network stats wrap-around bug fixed on Linux and FreeBSD
189   * Linux now reads disk information from /proc/partitions if available.
190     This results in it getting data for all the disks.
191 < * An additional tool, statgrab, has been added to allow external programs
191 > * An additional tool, statgrab, has been added to allow external programs
192     to easily parse statistics generated by libstatgrab.
193   * Scripts to generate MRTG (www.mrtg.org) configs with statgrab have
194     been added. This allows graphs to be generated from system stats.
