add note about utf8 encodings
add info to the README about what to do if python complains about missing
encodings. veleriy pogrebitskiy ran into this and had advice.
fearow date and last-minute fixes
update release date of fearow to 23apr. fix channel._set_closed() to grab
the lock before notifying the in/out buffers that the channel is closed.
try roger's trick for finding the home folder on windows.
support py22, more or less
add roger binns' patches for supporting python 2.2. i hedged a bit on the
logging stuff and just added some trickery to let logging be stubbed out for
python 2.2. this changed a lot of import statements but i managed to avoid
hacking at any of the existing logging.
socket timeouts are required for the threads to notice when they've been
deactivated. worked around it by using the 'select' module on py22.
also fixed the sftp unit tests to cope with a password-protected private key.
fix MANIFEST.in, change version numbers to 0.9-doduo, fix LPGL notices
fixed MANIFEST.in to include the demo scripts, LICENSE, and ChangeLog.
upped everything to version 0.9-doduo.
fixed the copyright notice, and added the LGPL banner to the top of every
python file.
more docs, and password-protected key files can now be read
lots more documentation, some of it moved out of the README file, which is
now much smaller and less rambling.
repr(Transport) now reports the number of bits used in the cipher.
cleaned up BER to use util functions, and throw a proper exception (the new
BERException) on error. it doesn't ever have to be a full BER decoder, but
it can at least comb its hair and tuck in its shirt.
lots of stuff added to PKey.read_private_key_file so it can try to decode
password-protected key files. right now it only understands "DES-EDE3-CBC"
format, but this is the only format i've seen openssh make so far. if the
key is password-protected, but no password was given, a new exception
(PasswordRequiredException) is raised so an outer layer can ask for a password
and try again.
lots more documentation, and added Transport.connect()
renamed demo_host_key to demo_rsa_key. moved changelog to a separate file,
and indicated that future changelog entries should be fetched from tla.
tried to clean up "__all__" in a way that makes epydoc still work.
added lots more documentation, and renamed many methods and vars to hide
them as private non-exported API.
Transport's ModulusPack is now a static member, so it only has to be loaded
once, and can then be used by any future Transport object.
added Transport.connect(), which tries to wrap all the SSH2 negotiation and
authentication into one method. you should be able to create a Transport,
call connect(), and then create channels.
