[010] - Code striker 1.4.3
by David Sitsky (http://freshmeat.net/users/sits/)
Thursday, May 9th 2002 08:59
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries Software
Development Software Development :: Quality Assurance
About: Codestriker is a Perl CGI script that is used for performing code
reviews in a collaborative fashion, as opposed to using unstructured
emails. Authors create code review topics, the nominated reviewers being
automatically notified by email. Reviewers then submit comments against the
code on a per-line basis, and can view comments submitted by the other
reviewers as they are created. Emails are sent to the appropriate parties,
as an alert mechanism, when comments are created. The author is free to
submit comments against the review comments. Once all reviewers have
finished the author has all review comments available in a structured
fashion, instead of a pile of unstructured emails.
Changes: A new popup viewing mode was added. This shows the contents of the
original file from CVS and the proposed new file, side-by-side using
colored diffs. The "-p" and "--show-function-line" flags for diffs and CVS
diff reviews are now supported. URLs in the description or a comment will
be automatically hyperlinked. The bug field upon topic creation can now
handle multiple bug IDs. The tab width can be set dynamically by the user.
There is now a configuration file to make upgrades easier.

Database :: Front-Ends Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content Software
Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks
About: dev/con php base is a library that contains useful authentication,
date, file, string, and network functions, an event driven application
server with safe link generation, and subsession support that allows you to
combine many modules seamlessly. SQL abstraction layers can generate simple
SQL queries and manipulate nodes in doubly-linked lists and tree
structures. A widget set frees you from writing HTML code, and can be mixed
with your own templates. All of these features are integrated into an
easy-to-use interface, with toolkits for automatic form generation, SQL
search, and more.
Changes: This release moves fulltext search arguments into a new query
object. A limit and offset can be specified for result sets to enable
browsing (admin_panel/tk/dbisearch/). Cursors now know the number of
results they contain (size() in cursor/cursor.class.php). The layout of
database result objects changed (fetch_array() was renamed to get()). The
text color of message boxes is configurable (admin_panel/widgets.php).

About: Lilo is a Boot loader for Linux/x86 and other PC operating systems.
Lilo is responsible for loading your Linux kernel from either a floppy or a
hard drive and giving it control of the system. It can also be used to boot
many other operating sysetms, including the BSD variants, DOS, and OS/2.
The Lilo distribution includes full source, documentation and support
files, but no pre-compiled binaries. Lilo is capable of booting beyond
cylinder 1024 of a hard disk if the BIOS supports EDD packet call
extensions to the int 0x13 interface.
Changes: This release includes enhancements and bugfixes. An editor to
update position information in bitmap splash screen headers was added. This
is a beta release, and as such produces more verbose boot messages.

Thursday, May 9th 2002 19:15
Software Development :: Libraries Software Development :: Libraries :: Java
Libraries System :: Logging
About: Log4j is a logging package written in Java. Log4j allows you to log
to a file, a java.io.Writer, a remote server, or a syslog daemon. The
package is designed so that log statements can remain in shipped code
without incurring a high performance cost. One distinctive feature of log4j
is the notion of hierarchical categories. Using categories, it is possible
to select (at runtime) which log statements are output at arbitrary
granularity. Users can choose to implement their own log formats and output
strategies.
Changes: In addition to performance improvements, bugfixes, and other
enhancements, this release adds JMX support, Mapped Diagnostic Contexts,
JDBC logging, a graphical log viewer, and buffered IO capability. One
important change is the replacement of the Category class with the Logger
class and the Priority class with the Level class in order to facilitate
migrating from the JDK 1.4 logging API to log4j. For most practical
purposes, this version can be considered a drop in replacement for 1.1.3.

Thursday, May 9th 2002 16:09
Communications :: Email :: Filters
About: The milter module for Python provides a python interface to
Sendmail's libmilter that exploits all its features. Milters can run on the
same machine as sendmail, or another machine. The milter can even run with
a different operating system or processor than sendmail. Sendmail talks to
the milter via a local or internet socket, and keeps the milter informed of
events as it processes a mail connection. At any point, the milter can cut
the conversation short by telling sendmail to ACCEPT, REJECT, or DISCARD
the message. After receiving a complete message from sendmail, the milter
can again REJECT or DISCARD it, but it can also ACCEPT it with changes to
the headers or body.
Changes: This release fixes HTML parsing and encoding bugs.

Internet :: File Transfer Protocol (FTP) System :: Archiving :: Backup
System :: Systems Administration
About: Svylla Chraybdis lets you get a data odyssey done with the help of
two small monsters. It's easy to use, utilizes SSL (encryption), LIBZ
(compression), and simple password protection. A builtin timeout detects
link breaks (for dialups) such that an uploads can be automatically
continued from where it broke (within a file). MD5 sums detect if files are
successfully transferred. In case of data changes the destination is
renamed and not overwritten (backup history). Data throttling can prevent
the transfer from using up full link speed, such that a background upload
does not disturb your SSH sessions (like SCP does).
Changes: Throttling blocksize is used as socket MTU. There is not much
documentation yet and the (straightforward) source was tested under SuSE
Linux 7.x only.

Thursday, May 9th 2002 14:31
Internet :: WWW/HTTP System :: Networking
About: tinyproxy is a lightweight HTTP proxy designed to do the job with a
minimum of system resource use. It's ideal for small networks in which a
larger HTTP proxy such as Squid might be overkill or a security risk. This
simplicity also makes tinyproxy an ideal candidate for customization; it
takes very little time to read and understand the tinyproxy source, and you
can start adding your own desired features in short order.
Changes: The DNS caching system has been removed. HTTP standards compliance
has been improved, and and all websites should work properly (for example
www.heise.de). There are new security related directives for the CONNECT
method. A ton of memory leaks were fixed, as well as a problem where memory
would be freed twice. A bug in the log rotation code which could cause log
file corruption has been fixed. Code which closed a socket twice (leading
to undefined errors) has been removed. A SEGFAULT in the tunnel code has
been fixed.
