LGPL-2.1-or-later
* Mon Aug 17 2026 Michael Vetter <mvetter@suse.com>
- Update to 3.4:
Changes:
* Support for CFGT_RAWSEC, capture a section body verbatim
* Support for an include() function within a section, enabled with the
CFGF_USE_INCLUDE_FUNCTION flag
* Support binary radix (0b...) for CFG_INT, issue #145
* Add support for fixed-width and unsigned integer types, CFG_INT8/16/32/64
and CFG_UINT8/16/32/64, alongside the platform-width CFG_INT, issue #11
* Update doxygen documentation and sync with modern doxygen
* Automatic large file support (LFS)
* cfg_parse_buf() now keeps a caller-set cfg->filename for file:line
diagnostics, defaulting to [buf] only when unset, the same way
cfg_parse_fp() handles FILE
* Optional JSON-style [ ] list syntax, enable with CFGF_JSON_LISTS flag to
cfg_init(); cfg_print() then emits [ ] as well. The default { } syntax is
unchanged
* Translation updates
Fixes:
* Issue #147: fix the bundled fmemopen() replacement for systems without a
native one (e.g. older macOS/BSD), so the write-then-read round-trip works;
diagnosed by sevan
* Issue #150: comments are now accepted anywhere between tokens, e.g. inside
lists and inline C-style, not only before an option name
* Issue #152: fail to build with gettext 0.20
* Issue #153: German translation update
* Issue #158: cfg_addtsec() returns the existing section when the title
already exists, matching the documented behavior
* Issue #163: heap overflow in cfg_tilde_expand(), found by Han Zheng
* Issue #172: document the working MSYS2/MINGW64 Windows build; the old
windows/mingw instructions were obsolete and failed to link
* Issue #179: cfg_addlist() now preserves default list values when appending
* Issue #180: isspace() argument fix, could crash the lexer
* Issue #182: guard against stack exhaustion from deeply nested sections
* Issue #187: null dereference on an empty comment (e.g. #) with
CFGF_COMMENTS enabled, found and fixed
* Fix null termination when expanding environment variables
* Only apply search path logic to relative pathnames, absolute paths are no longer altered
* Remove spurious 'no such option' errors for KEYSTRVAL sections
* Fix configure failure with autoconf 2.73, backslash continuations in the AC_CONFIG_FILES list are no longer accepted
- Drop libconfuse-d73777c2c3566fb2647727bb56d9a2295b81669b.patch
* Mon Sep 12 2022 ro@suse.de
- add fix from upstream git
libconfuse-d73777c2c3566fb2647727bb56d9a2295b81669b.patch
cfg_tilde_expand in confuse.c has a heap-based buffer over-read
(CVE-2022-40320 boo#1203326)
* Thu Jun 25 2020 Michael Vetter <mvetter@suse.com>
- Update to 3.3:
Changes:
* Support building static library on Windows
* Support for fmemopen() in Windows UWP applications
* Support for cfg_getopt(cfg, "sub=name|option"), i.e., get an
option from a sub-section, by Peter Rosin
* Support for CFGF_MODIFIED flag, to detect changes to settings
in memory after parsing, by Peter Rosin
* Support for filtering out settings when printing, by Peter Rosin
* Support for dynamic key=value sections with no pre-runtime
knowledge of setting names, useful for environment variables
and similar
* Updated German translation, by Chris Leick
Fixes:
* Fix loop-forever bug found by Christian Reitter; a .conf file
containing only "=", will cause even the simplest parser to loop
forever in internal function cfg_getopt_secidx()
* Issue #113: Fail to build strdup() replacement
* Issue #118: Fix build on Windows, missing fmemopen() replacement
* Issue #120: Handle shell and C++ comments with no space separator
* Issue #125: Drop developer debug msg QSTR: ...
* Issue #131: Fix CFG_PTR_CB() regression, segfaults when, e.g.,
cfg_free() is called. Found and fixed by Peter Rosin
* Issue #135: Revert CFGF_RESET flag if cfg_setmulti() family fail
* Issue #137: Memory leak in cfg_setopt() for PTR options
* Fri Oct 12 2018 Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@inai.de>
