8 2020 April 22; version 4.0.1
9 Correct message type constant for Traffic Steering predication (RIC-342)
11 2020 April 21; version 4.0.0
12 The NNG based libraries are no longer included in the RMR packages.
13 This is considered a breaking change as NNG will not be supported by
14 default. It is still possible to build with RMR-NNG libraries, but
15 that is the exception. The API between 3.8.2 and 4.0.0 is the SAME.
16 Upgrading to 4.0.0 only means that the underlying transport mechanism
17 is limited only to SI95.
19 The rmr_rcv_specific() function has been deprecated as it was necessary
20 only for NNG and Nanomsg support. Its use should be discontinued.
22 2020 April 20; version 3.8.2

24 table updates. (RIC-336)

44 2020 April 9; version 3.7.1
45 The max length restriction for receiving messages when using SI95 has
46 been removed. The length supplied during initialisation is used as
47 the "normal maximum" and default buffer allocation size, but messages
48 arriving which are larger are accepted. (RIC-309)
50 2020 April 7; version 3.7.0
51 The health check support programme was renamed to rmr_probe (RIC-308).

80 ack/nack of meid tables (RIC-273)
82 2020 March 10; version 3.5.1
83 Add missing health check message types.
85 2020 March 9; version 3.5.0
86 Added new wormhole send function: rmr_wh_call().
88 2020 March 6; version 3.4.0

115 2020 February 18; version 3.2.0
116 Added support for new Route Manager and it's ability to accept
117 a request for table update.
119 2020 February 14; version 3.1.3
120 Fix bug in SIsend which was causing a core dump in some cases

152 Introduce support for SI95 transport library to replace NNG.
153 (RMR library versions will use leading odd numbers to avoid tag collisions
154 with the wrapper tags which will use even numbers.)
156 2019 December 9; version 1.13.1
157 Correct documentation and missing rel-notes update for RTD.
159 2019 December 6; version 1.13.0

184 Fix to prevent null message buffer from being returned by the timeout
185 receive function if the function is passed one to reuse.
187 2019 October 21; version 1.10.1
188 Add periodic dump of send count info to stderr.
190 2019 September 27; version 1.9.0
191 Python bindings added receive all queued function and corrected a unit test
193 2019 September 25; version 1.8.3
194 Correct application level test issue causing timing problems during
195 jenkins verification testing at command and merge
197 Handle the NNG connection shutdown status which may now be
198 generated when a connection throug a proxy is reset.
200 2019 September 25; version 1.8.2
201 Correct bug in rmr_torcv_msg() when timeout set to zero (0).
203 2019 September 19; version 1.8.1
204 Correct missing constant for wrappers.
206 2019 September 19; version 1.8.0
207 New message types added:
208 RAN_CONNECTED, RAN_RESTARTED, RAN_RECONFIGURED
210 2019 September 17; version 1.7.0
211 Initial connection mode now defaults to asynchronous. Set RMR_ASYNC_CONN=0
212 in the environment before rmr_init() is invoked to revert to
213 synchronous first TCP connections. (Recovery connection attempts
214 have always been asynchronous).
216 2019 September 3; version 1.6.0
217 Fix bug in the rmr_rts_msg() function. If a return to sender message
218 failed, the source IP address was not correctly adjusted and could
219 cause the message to be "reflected" back to the sender on a retry.
221 Added the ability to set the source "ID" via an environment var
222 (RMR_SRC_ID). When present in the environment, the string will
223 be placed in to the message header as the source and thus be used
224 by an application calling rmr_rts_smg() to return a response to
225 the sender. If this environment variable is not present, the host
226 name (original behaviour) is used.
228 2019 August 26; version 1.4.0
229 New message types were added.
231 2019 August 16; version 1.3.0
232 New mesage types added.
234 2019 August 13; version 1.2.0 (API change, non-breaking)
235 The function rmr_get_xact() was added to proide a convenient
236 way to extract the transaction field from a message.
238 2019 August 8; version 1.1.0 (API change)
239 This change should be backward compatable/non-breaking
240 A new field has been added to the message buffer (rmr_mbuf_t).
241 This field (tp_state) is used to communicate the errno value
242 that the transport mechanism might set during send and/or
243 receive operations. C programmes should continue to use
244 errno directly, but in some environments wrappers may not be
245 able to access errno and this provides the value to them.
246 See the rmr_alloc_msg manual page for more details.
248 2019 August 6; version 1.0.45 (build changes)
249 Support for the Nanomsg transport library has been dropped.
250 The library librmr.* will no longer be included in packages.
252 Packages will install RMR libraries into the system preferred
253 target directory. On some systems this is /usr/local/lib
254 and on others it is /usr/local/lib64. The diretory is
255 determined by the sytem on which the package is built and
256 NOT by the system installing the package, so it's possible
257 that the RMR libraries end up in a strange location if the
258 .deb or .rpm file was generated on a Linux flavour that
259 has a different preference than the one where the package
262 2019 August 6; version 1.0.44 (API change)
263 Added a new message type constant.
265 2019 July 15; Version 1.0.39 (bug fix)
266 Prevent unnecessary usleep in retry loop.
268 2019 July 12; Version 1.0.38 (API change)
269 Added new message types to RIC_message_types.h.
271 2019 July 11; Version 1.0.37
273 librmr and librmr_nng
274 - Add message buffer API function rmr_trace_ref()
275 (see rmr_trace_ref.3 manual page in dev package).
