8 2020 June 18; version 4.1.0
9 Bump version minor to move away from 4.0.* which will bump for any
10 patches applied back to bronze.
12 Add magic C++ goo to symtab header file allowing C++ xAPPs to use
13 the symbol table directly.
15 2020 May 06; version 4.0.5
16 Fix the bug in SI95 receive message management semaphore count
19 2020 April 29; version 4.0.4
20 Fix the traffic steering message type constants (again) (RIC-342)
22 2020 April 28; version 4.0.3
23 Fix sonar flagged bugs (RIC-78)
25 2020 April 24; version 4.0.2
26 Correct bug in SI95 transport header length validation (RIC-341)
28 2020 April 22; version 4.0.1
29 Correct message type constant for Traffic Steering predication (RIC-342)
31 2020 April 21; version 4.0.0
32 The NNG based libraries are no longer included in the RMR packages.
33 This is considered a breaking change as NNG will not be supported by
34 default. It is still possible to build with RMR-NNG libraries, but
35 that is the exception. The API between 3.8.2 and 4.0.0 is the SAME.
36 Upgrading to 4.0.0 only means that the underlying transport mechanism
37 is limited only to SI95.
39 The rmr_rcv_specific() function has been deprecated as it was necessary
40 only for NNG and Nanomsg support. Its use should be discontinued.
42 2020 April 20; version 3.8.2
43 Fix bug which was preventing an instance receiving dynamic route
44 table updates. (RIC-336)
46 2020 April 20; version 3.8.1

49 2020 April 17; version 3.8.0
50 Add safe connect to avoid potential connect bug on Linux (RIC-332)
52 Change debugging in route table collector to avoid possible
53 segment fault when in level 2 debug (RIC-335)

61 2020 April 10; version 3.7.2
62 Fix bug related to static route table only mode (RIC-331)
64 2020 April 9; version 3.7.1
65 The max length restriction for receiving messages when using SI95 has
66 been removed. The length supplied during initialisation is used as
67 the "normal maximum" and default buffer allocation size, but messages
68 arriving which are larger are accepted. (RIC-309)
70 2020 April 7; version 3.7.0
71 The health check support programme was renamed to rmr_probe (RIC-308).
73 2020 April 6; version 3.6.6

103 Add missing health check message types.
105 2020 March 9; version 3.5.0
106 Added new wormhole send function: rmr_wh_call().
108 2020 March 6; version 3.4.0

133 Added missing message types (E2-Setup)
135 2020 February 18; version 3.2.0
136 Added support for new Route Manager and it's ability to accept
137 a request for table update.
139 2020 February 14; version 3.1.3
140 Fix bug in SIsend which was causing a core dump in some cases

142 had disconnected. (RIC-207).
144 2020 February 6; version 3.1.2

172 Introduce support for SI95 transport library to replace NNG.
173 (RMR library versions will use leading odd numbers to avoid tag collisions
174 with the wrapper tags which will use even numbers.)
176 2019 December 9; version 1.13.1
177 Correct documentation and missing rel-notes update for RTD.
179 2019 December 6; version 1.13.0

187 2019 November 13; version 1.12.1
188 New message type constants added to support A1.
190 2019 November 4; version 1.11.0

204 Fix to prevent null message buffer from being returned by the timeout
205 receive function if the function is passed one to reuse.
207 2019 October 21; version 1.10.1
208 Add periodic dump of send count info to stderr.
210 2019 September 27; version 1.9.0
211 Python bindings added receive all queued function and corrected a unit test
213 2019 September 25; version 1.8.3
214 Correct application level test issue causing timing problems during
215 jenkins verification testing at command and merge
217 Handle the NNG connection shutdown status which may now be
218 generated when a connection throug a proxy is reset.
220 2019 September 25; version 1.8.2
221 Correct bug in rmr_torcv_msg() when timeout set to zero (0).
223 2019 September 19; version 1.8.1
224 Correct missing constant for wrappers.
226 2019 September 19; version 1.8.0
227 New message types added:
228 RAN_CONNECTED, RAN_RESTARTED, RAN_RECONFIGURED
230 2019 September 17; version 1.7.0
231 Initial connection mode now defaults to asynchronous. Set RMR_ASYNC_CONN=0
232 in the environment before rmr_init() is invoked to revert to
233 synchronous first TCP connections. (Recovery connection attempts
234 have always been asynchronous).
236 2019 September 3; version 1.6.0
237 Fix bug in the rmr_rts_msg() function. If a return to sender message
238 failed, the source IP address was not correctly adjusted and could
239 cause the message to be "reflected" back to the sender on a retry.
241 Added the ability to set the source "ID" via an environment var
242 (RMR_SRC_ID). When present in the environment, the string will
243 be placed in to the message header as the source and thus be used
244 by an application calling rmr_rts_smg() to return a response to
245 the sender. If this environment variable is not present, the host
246 name (original behaviour) is used.
248 2019 August 26; version 1.4.0
249 New message types were added.
251 2019 August 16; version 1.3.0
252 New mesage types added.
254 2019 August 13; version 1.2.0 (API change, non-breaking)
255 The function rmr_get_xact() was added to proide a convenient
256 way to extract the transaction field from a message.
258 2019 August 8; version 1.1.0 (API change)
259 This change should be backward compatable/non-breaking
260 A new field has been added to the message buffer (rmr_mbuf_t).
261 This field (tp_state) is used to communicate the errno value
262 that the transport mechanism might set during send and/or
263 receive operations. C programmes should continue to use
264 errno directly, but in some environments wrappers may not be
265 able to access errno and this provides the value to them.
266 See the rmr_alloc_msg manual page for more details.
268 2019 August 6; version 1.0.45 (build changes)
269 Support for the Nanomsg transport library has been dropped.
270 The library librmr.* will no longer be included in packages.
272 Packages will install RMR libraries into the system preferred
273 target directory. On some systems this is /usr/local/lib
274 and on others it is /usr/local/lib64. The diretory is
275 determined by the sytem on which the package is built and
276 NOT by the system installing the package, so it's possible
277 that the RMR libraries end up in a strange location if the
278 .deb or .rpm file was generated on a Linux flavour that
279 has a different preference than the one where the package
282 2019 August 6; version 1.0.44 (API change)
283 Added a new message type constant.
285 2019 July 15; Version 1.0.39 (bug fix)
286 Prevent unnecessary usleep in retry loop.
288 2019 July 12; Version 1.0.38 (API change)
289 Added new message types to RIC_message_types.h.
291 2019 July 11; Version 1.0.37
293 librmr and librmr_nng
294 - Add message buffer API function rmr_trace_ref()
295 (see rmr_trace_ref.3 manual page in dev package).
