What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· lw_addr_clone segfault fixed
· The outer_size in lw_streamdef has been renamed to tail_size, and a new lw_stream_from_tail function has been added. A section on tail_size usage is now included in the FAQ.
· lw_udp and lw_flashpolicy now allow a tag to be attached
· The prototype for lw_filter_clone was erroneously called lw_filter_copy (and so the function was not callable)
· Assorted fixes for lw_udp, which was unusable in 0.5.0
· New lw_addr_type and lw_addr_set_type functions added, to get and set the type (TCP or UDP) of an address
· Fix problems with the UNIX implementation of lw_timer_stop
· Fix segfault with Windows FDStream when the completion routine fires after stream deletion
