59 2020 July 21; Version 4.1.4

62 2020 July 9; version 4.1.3
63 Allow RTS messages to be sent before the arrival of the initial
64 route table. Calls to RTS (heart beat responses) prior to the
65 initial route table load could cause a crash if a framework
66 blindly assumes that RTS is valid. (RIC-589)
68 2020 June 22; version 4.1.2
69 Fix typo in RIC Message header file.
71 Add document for message type constants and the scripts
74 2020 June 22; version 4.1.1

93 2020 April 29; version 4.0.4

102 2020 April 22; version 4.0.1
103 Correct message type constant for Traffic Steering predication (RIC-342)
105 2020 April 21; version 4.0.0
106 The NNG based libraries are no longer included in the RMR packages.
107 This is considered a breaking change as NNG will not be supported by
108 default. It is still possible to build with RMR-NNG libraries, but
109 that is the exception. The API between 3.8.2 and 4.0.0 is the SAME.
110 Upgrading to 4.0.0 only means that the underlying transport mechanism
111 is limited only to SI95.
113 The rmr_rcv_specific() function has been deprecated as it was necessary
114 only for NNG and Nanomsg support. Its use should be discontinued.
116 2020 April 20; version 3.8.2
117 Fix bug which was preventing an instance receiving dynamic route
118 table updates. (RIC-336)
120 2020 April 20; version 3.8.1

135 2020 April 10; version 3.7.2
136 Fix bug related to static route table only mode (RIC-331)
138 2020 April 9; version 3.7.1
139 The max length restriction for receiving messages when using SI95 has
140 been removed. The length supplied during initialisation is used as
141 the "normal maximum" and default buffer allocation size, but messages
142 arriving which are larger are accepted. (RIC-309)
144 2020 April 7; version 3.7.0
145 The health check support programme was renamed to rmr_probe (RIC-308).
147 2020 April 6; version 3.6.6

174 ack/nack of meid tables (RIC-273)

177 Add missing health check message types.
179 2020 March 9; version 3.5.0

211 a request for table update.
213 2020 February 14; version 3.1.3
214 Fix bug in SIsend which was causing a core dump in some cases

245 2020 January 16; version 3.0.0
246 Introduce support for SI95 transport library to replace NNG.
247 (RMR library versions will use leading odd numbers to avoid tag collisions
248 with the wrapper tags which will use even numbers.)
250 2019 December 9; version 1.13.1
251 Correct documentation and missing rel-notes update for RTD.
253 2019 December 6; version 1.13.0

261 2019 November 13; version 1.12.1
262 New message type constants added to support A1.
264 2019 November 4; version 1.11.0
265 Version bump to move away from the 1.10.* to distinguish between

273 2019 October 31; version 1.10.2
274 Provide the means to increase the payload size of a received message
275 without losing the data needed to use the rmr_rts_msg() funciton.
277 2019 October 21; version 1.10.1
278 Fix to prevent null message buffer from being returned by the timeout
279 receive function if the function is passed one to reuse.
281 2019 October 21; version 1.10.1
282 Add periodic dump of send count info to stderr.
284 2019 September 27; version 1.9.0
285 Python bindings added receive all queued function and corrected a unit test
287 2019 September 25; version 1.8.3
288 Correct application level test issue causing timing problems during
289 jenkins verification testing at command and merge
291 Handle the NNG connection shutdown status which may now be

294 2019 September 25; version 1.8.2
295 Correct bug in rmr_torcv_msg() when timeout set to zero (0).
297 2019 September 19; version 1.8.1
298 Correct missing constant for wrappers.
300 2019 September 19; version 1.8.0
301 New message types added:
302 RAN_CONNECTED, RAN_RESTARTED, RAN_RECONFIGURED
304 2019 September 17; version 1.7.0
305 Initial connection mode now defaults to asynchronous. Set RMR_ASYNC_CONN=0
306 in the environment before rmr_init() is invoked to revert to
307 synchronous first TCP connections. (Recovery connection attempts
308 have always been asynchronous).
310 2019 September 3; version 1.6.0
311 Fix bug in the rmr_rts_msg() function. If a return to sender message
312 failed, the source IP address was not correctly adjusted and could
313 cause the message to be "reflected" back to the sender on a retry.
315 Added the ability to set the source "ID" via an environment var
316 (RMR_SRC_ID). When present in the environment, the string will
317 be placed in to the message header as the source and thus be used
318 by an application calling rmr_rts_smg() to return a response to
319 the sender. If this environment variable is not present, the host
320 name (original behaviour) is used.
322 2019 August 26; version 1.4.0
323 New message types were added.
325 2019 August 16; version 1.3.0
326 New mesage types added.
328 2019 August 13; version 1.2.0 (API change, non-breaking)
329 The function rmr_get_xact() was added to proide a convenient
330 way to extract the transaction field from a message.
332 2019 August 8; version 1.1.0 (API change)
333 This change should be backward compatable/non-breaking
334 A new field has been added to the message buffer (rmr_mbuf_t).
335 This field (tp_state) is used to communicate the errno value
336 that the transport mechanism might set during send and/or
337 receive operations. C programmes should continue to use
338 errno directly, but in some environments wrappers may not be
339 able to access errno and this provides the value to them.
340 See the rmr_alloc_msg manual page for more details.
342 2019 August 6; version 1.0.45 (build changes)
343 Support for the Nanomsg transport library has been dropped.
344 The library librmr.* will no longer be included in packages.
346 Packages will install RMR libraries into the system preferred
347 target directory. On some systems this is /usr/local/lib
348 and on others it is /usr/local/lib64. The diretory is
349 determined by the sytem on which the package is built and
350 NOT by the system installing the package, so it's possible
351 that the RMR libraries end up in a strange location if the
352 .deb or .rpm file was generated on a Linux flavour that
353 has a different preference than the one where the package
356 2019 August 6; version 1.0.44 (API change)
357 Added a new message type constant.
359 2019 July 15; Version 1.0.39 (bug fix)
360 Prevent unnecessary usleep in retry loop.
362 2019 July 12; Version 1.0.38 (API change)
363 Added new message types to RIC_message_types.h.
365 2019 July 11; Version 1.0.37
367 librmr and librmr_nng
368 - Add message buffer API function rmr_trace_ref()
369 (see rmr_trace_ref.3 manual page in dev package).
