This project is now licensed under the Apache license. Individual files
now have a license reference header.
The Apache 2.0 license text is copied to the file LICENSE. The file
NOTICE, referred to in the license text, has been added. A placeholder
README.txt has been added.
These three new files are integrated into the distribution/installation
machinery, and are placed into the package directory upon installation.
On a 64-bit OS, pointer return values needed to be marked as c_void_p instead
of a user-defined type, which would result in the transfer of 32 bits only.
In order to still return an instance of the user-defined type to the caller,
imported functions are now marked with the return type, and the return
value is converted to that type by a new error checking function used only
with imported functions that create and return user-defined types.
On 64-bit Linux, the long type becomes 8 bytes, whereas the int type remains
4 bytes. The various sockaddr_* fields therefore needed to be changed from
long to int, as did the type signatures of the packed string to array
conversion functions.
On an Ubuntu server installation, it was found that the name "localhost"
does not resolve to an ipv6 address. A name search has therefore been added
to the unit test driver, along with an ip number fallback.
Tested on Ubuntu Server 12.04.1 LTS 64-bit.
Regression tested on Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS 32-bit.
This change introduces the implementation of the SSLConnection methods
getpeercert and cipher. The following has been added:
* dtls.util: utility elements shared by other modules in this package
* dtls.x509: a module for X509-certificate-related functionality,
including formatting a certificate into a Python
dictionary as prescribed by the Python standard
library's ssl module; functionality for testing with
PEM-encoded certificates in the file system is included
* yahoo-cert.pem: the current certificate of www.yahoo.com: this is a good
testing certificate, since it contains the subject
alternate name extension
Other notable changes:
* sslconnection: private attributes are now preceded by "_"
* openssl: null-ness in opaque FuncParam-derived return values is
now properly detected and an exception is raised as
expected
