<h1> Achieved Goals</h1>
<h2> (Chronological order)</h2>
<hr>
<ul>
<li> Introduced a new Domain Name Resolver engine. It's a 98%-new
thread-based (pthreads), non-blocking stable design. The good news is
that it allows gdb debugging and compatibility with libc5 systems; two
major features that were missing with the former scheme. </li>
<li> Designed a <A href="NC_design.html">Naming&Coding standard</A>
for the project. </li>
<li> Introduced an interactive bug-track engine at the Web site. It allows
developers and testers to coordinate their efforts, and also serves as
an information center on project status. </li>
<li> Introduced other interactive pages that helped to coordinate particular
tasks (as stage 1 of the Naming&Coding effort).</li>
<li> Introduced the layered Naming&Coding design into the the source
tree (up to stage 1).<br> It helps developers to easily understand
Dillo's internal function calls, and to figure it out quickly where
they came from. It also provides a two layer ADT (Abstract Data Type)
that serves as an all around lib (when prefixed 'a_') and as a module
lib (when prefixed with the module name).<br> It also provides a
framework that supports concurrent developing.
<!-- <br> You can check stage 1 log <a href="Dname.html">here</a>. --> </li>
<li> Completed stage 2 of the Naming&Coding effort. It was a 1.2 Mb
source!<br> (Stage 2 was the last stage) </li>
<li> Removed all compile time warnings from the source</li>
<li> Added PNG image support </li>
<li> Added POST method support </li>
<li> Standarized all the memory management to glib functions </li>
<li> Fixed the image rendering bugs that were affecting GIFs and JPGs </li>
<li> Improved rendering with support for image resizing (images without
size tags) </li>
<li> Fixed the plugin handler (FTP works again) </li>
<li> Fixed bugs that affected image URLs (segfaults) </li>
<li> Documented internal work of the browser (to be extended) </li>
<li> Eliminated several memory leaks </li>
<li> Introduced a readable config file for preferences </li>
<li> Made a public developer's release; a major milestone in our project,
cause we had a lot of work to make it possible.<br> </li>
<li> Reimplemented the whole networking process (One half of the browser is
completely NEW) </li>
<li> Stabilized dillo to a better degree than gzilla-0.2.2 (another milestone!) </li>
<li> Made a public announcement in freshmeat and in
comp.os.linux.announce.<br> Finally the house-cleanning has finished
and we have a stable, consistent, commented, documented and extensible
code base to work on. <br> (Thanks to everyone that contributed to
make it possible.)</li>
<li> Fixed the blank rendering bug </li>
<li> Documented dillo widget! </li>
<li> Designed and implemented a new data-transfer mechanism for internal
layers </li>
<li> Redesigned the cache to hold both images and pages, and to handle its
clients with a primary key </li>
<li> Added ISINDEX support </li>
<li> Made several fixes, improvements and extensions </li>
<li> Rewrote most of the Dw module from scratch! </li>
<li> Reimplemented image rendering with GdkRGB and the new DwImage </li>
<li> Enabled dillo to work with low screen depths </li>
<li> Fixed lots of memory leaks </li>
<li> Improved error-handling in the IO engine. </li>
<li>Rewrote the HTML tag parsing functions in a standards compliant
way.</li>
<li>Introduced an optimized URL resolving module (96% RFC2396
compliant). </li>
<li>Reduced dicache's memory usage. </li>
<li>Added cookies support! (RFC-2965 compliant).</li>
<li>Restarted working on simple plugins design (dpi1)</li>
<li>Added IPv6 support!
<li>Implemented alignments inside tables
<li>Added iterators (the basis for find text and future copy&paste
<li>Added a simple command line interface
<li>Made Dillo embeddable into other GTK+ applications!
<li>Extended the Concomitant Control Chain (CCC) theory to
allow bidirectional message passing.
<li>Extended IO's functionallity with a threaded operation that
allows buffered writes of small chunks on the same FD.
<li>Used the new CCC and IO to implement dillo plugins! (dpi).
<li>Wrote a dpi-program for bookmarks.
<li>Implemented Copy&Paste! (aka. Text selection)
<li>Introduced a new way of handling dillo plugins! Now the
communications and managing is done by a daemon: dpid.
This comes with a lot of advantages described in Dpid.txt.
<li>Developed a plugin for downloads. It uses wget and can handle
several connections at the same time.
<li>Developed a plugin for FTP.
<li>Made an example plugin (hello), and
started developing the https plugin.
<li>Adapted the generic parser to make HTML error detection, providing
the line number and a hint (expected tag) in the error message!
-- this feature is also known as the <em>bug meter</em>.
<li>Added a context sensitive popup menu for images.
<li>Made even more portability enhancements.
<li>Made significant improvements to the HTML parser. This brings
better HTML rendering, and better bug detection (hints).
<li>Tested dillo extensively on several platforms reaching the
very stable beta SW status.
<li>Finished the feasibility analysis for an FLTK port.
<li>Orthogonalized the generic parser:
<ul>
<li> Fixes memory leaks and widget state when recovering from bad
HTML.
<li> Improves error detection and validation (needed by XHTML).
<li> Makes DOC tree generation possible (needed by CSS).
<li> Cleaner design of handling routines for bad HTML.
<li> Orthodox treatment of double optional elements (HTML, HEAD,
BODY).
<li> Lots of minor code cleanups.
</ul>
<li>Cookies became a plugin to allow sharing between multiple copies
of dillo.
<li>New Abstraction Layer.
<li>New image handling code.
<li>Parsing of empty XML tags (e.g <script/> as
<script></script>).
<li>Port to FLTK2.
<li>Universal CCC (Concomitant Control Chain) idea.
<li>Implement tabs in the user interface.
<li>Rewrite of tables code.
<li>accept multiple character sets (in both HTTP and META).
<li>optional image loading.
<li>gzip decoder.
<li>64-bit ready out of the box.
<li>Implement the "file input" control for forms.
<li>Optimized scrolling.
<li>HTTP-1.1's chunked transfer support.
<li>GUI dpi for downloads.
<li> Basic authentication.
<li> Configurable keybindings.
<li> Empty cache-entries removal.
<li> DPI cleanup.
<li> Cookies cleanup.
<li> Limit concurrent connections to a host.
</ul>
