Release v1.6.0

Changelog

Added

• Some changes to README including the link to the documentation at the top. Thanks to @qrpike (#60, #61)
• librt on Linux via NATS_EXTRA_LIB variable. Thanks to @film42 (#63)
• natsOptions_SetDiscoveredServersCB() to set a connection handler invoked when a new server joins the NATS Cluster (#66)
• nats_ReleaseThreadMemory() to release thread local storage from user threads invoking NATS APIs. Thanks to @dmpriso (#70)
• Ability to selectively build examples and tests. Thanks to @pritambaral for reporting the issue (#75, #79)

Improved

• Improve performance and reduce risk of server disconnecting (as a slow consumer) a connection sending messages to itself (#65)

Changed

• Moved adapters directory to src. Thanks @dmpriso (#67)
• The install is now copying headers in $CNAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX/include/nats (nats subdirectory added). The nats.h header copied in original location issues a message informing you to the new location and includes the correct ones. Thanks to @pritambaral for reporting the issue (#76)

Removed

• NATS_INSTALL_PREFIX for integration with hunter project. Thanks @dmpriso (#67)

Fixed

• Permissions violation handling by reporting the error to the error handler (if one set) and no longer closing the connection (#71)
• Build of examples using libevent on Windows 64 bit. Thanks to @dmpriso (#74)
• Possible crash after the library successfully reconnects (#78)

Complete Changes

v1.5.0...v1.6.0

Release v1.5.0

Changelog

Added

• natsConnection_GetDiscoveredServers returns the list of servers discovered after a connection has been established (#44)
• natsOptions_SkipServerVerification allows skipping server certificate verification when desired. Thanks to @shanna for the suggestion (#48)

Changed

• natsConnection_GetServers no longer returns credentials when embedded in the URL (7df9afb)

Fixed

• If natsOptions_SetURL is used, try it first on initial connect (ffe0b08)
• Fix build issue with JRuby FFI. Thanks to @abrandoned for fixing this (#42)
• Don’t define snprintf as _snprintf starting at MS Visual Studio 2015. Thanks to @dbskccc for reporting this (e5531cf)
• Replace use of __FUNCTION__ with __func__ for non Windows platforms. Thanks to @andrelucas for fixing this (#49)
• Don’t shuffle the entire servers pool when adding URL from INFO protocol (#51)
• On Windows: crash on exit if linked to NATS DLL and no NATS call were made. Thanks to @rFronteddu report (#55)
• Crash in nats_updateStack when number of frames greater than MAX_FRAMES. Thanks to @mpodanow for fixing this (#56)
• Error stack growth when natsConnection_Flush() or natsConnection_FlushTimeout() repeatedly fails (#58)

Complete changes

v1.4.4...v1.5.0

Release v1.4.4

Changelog

Added

• Ability to compile on ARM (thanks to Joachim Bauch)
• natsOptions_UseGlobalMessageDelivery and nats_SetMessageDeliveryPoolSize to use a library message delivery thread pool instead of a thread per subscription (thanks to Ishbir Singh feedback).
• natsConnection_SubscribeTimeout and natsConnection_QueueSubscribeTimeout to create asynchronous subscriptions that can timeout (thanks to Ishbir Singh feedback).
• Client now automatically updates the cluster servers URLs (with servers at version 0.9.2 and above).
• natsConnection_GetServers to get the list of known servers.
• natsOptions_IPResolutionOrder to dictate the order in which host name are resolved during connect.

Changed

• The library previously favored IPv6 addresses doing a host name resolution during the connect process. The default is now to not use a specific order and rely on the DNS resolution. You can change the order and/or select which family you want with the natsOptions_IPResolutionOrder API.

Deprecated

• natsSubscription_NoDeliveryDelay has been deprecated. It will be removed in the future.

Fixed

• Thread local cleanup was missing in some cases
• Host name that contained [] (for IPv6 addresses) were not correctly stripped out of the square brackets before doing host name resolution, which would cause it to fail.
• On Windows, non blocking connect that will fail is now faster.
• Several issues in the connect loop logic.
