Database
Internet
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
About: db_bibivu is a simple MySQL database access wrapper. It provides
functions for connecting to a MySQL database server, selecting the
database to access, executing queries, retrieving query results rows in
arrays, executing a query to return a single result row in a single call,
etc. The class may optionally generate a log of the executed queries. When
a query fails, it may send a warning message to a given site administrator
email address.
Changes: This release changes the functions "query" and "query_first", and
adds a second parameter, "$record_type". It adds the function data_seek
(mysql_data_seek; if the second parameter is not passed, it will position
on a random record), a "set_default_result_type" parameter (this will
change the default $result_type for the query function), a "close"
function to close a MySQL connection, and a "connect_first_use" parameter
(to allow the class to connect only when it is used the first time; this
will avoid connection to the database when no queries are executed).

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
About: Decimail Webmail 3 is an email application written in Javascript.
It is almost entirely client-side, and so has the potential for a rich and
responsive user-interface. The server-side requirement is a Web server, a
simple IMAP-to-HTTP proxy, and any IMAP server; this should result in
lower server load than some CGI Webmail applications. The code is still
relatively new and is not yet suited to widespread deployment.
Changes: Attached images are now displayed using data: URLs.

client by changing the login process slightly and adding more security
checks. Therefore, it is advised to upgrade both servers and clients.
Configuration scripts have also been improved and other bugfixes and
tweaks have been made throughout the source files and the Makefiles. Work
is underway to port the server to other operating systems and to add new
features.

[030] - GNU ccAudio2 0.9.9 (Testing)
by David Sugar (http://freshmeat.net/users/davidsugar/)
Fri, Jul 21st 2006 00:42
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio
Software Development :: Libraries
About: ccaudio2 is a simple, highly portable, stand-alone, C++-based
framework for manipulation of audio data. Its goal is to be a C++
framework that is as useful as "audiofile" or "sndfile" is for C
programming, and to cover various generic and useful manipulations of
audio data as well as audio file access. A stand-alone audio processing
command line tool is also provided to demonstrate library functionality.
ccaudio2 compiles under Mac OS X, POSIX systems, and Win32 systems.
Changes: Updates were made in codec support. Timing base for gsm codec was
added. The g.721/g.723/g.726 family of adpcm codecs was introduced, along
with new raw adpcm .a24/.a32/.a40 file extensions.

[031] - GNU gengetopt 2.17
by Lorenzo Bettini (http://freshmeat.net/users/bettini/)
Fri, Jul 21st 2006 11:00
Software Development
Utilities
About: GNU gengetopt takes a simple description of arguments and
generates a C function that uses the GNU getopt_long(3) function to
parse and validate the options. It is perfect if you are too lazy to
write all that is required to call getopt_long(3), or need to use many
options. The generated code also works with autoconf or automake.
Changes: This release fixes a bug in the generating parser where no
multiple option is of type string. The passed header file extension is now
used when including the header file name in the generated C source. A
problem with the internal variable optind with the non-glibc version of
getopt has been fixed. There are a range of occurrences for multiple
options. Help and usage strings are generated and accessible (the same
that are printed by --help). Reduced size for multiple option parsers. An
--output-dir command line option has been added. The option
--string-parser generates a parser that interprets a passed string as
command line arguments.

Internet :: Log Analysis
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
System :: Diagnostics
About: The main purpose of LoFiMo is, as the name states, to monitor log
files. It does this in real time, i.e. shows the contents of log files as
they are changing. The user can connect to LoFiMo with a Web browser or
use the console for plain text output. When using a Web browser, the
output can be formatted with cascading stylesheets, which the user can
define. Thus, it is possible to highlight certain log entries with
different colors and fonts. It is also possible to play sounds or execute
commands (send an email, play sound with a custom player, etc.) when a log
entry matches a filter. LoFiMo can parse Apache style log files and syslog
style log files. Among others, there are filters that can parse iptables
logs and merge multiple log lines of Postfix into a single one.
Changes: This release fixes the handling of the stop-flag in the kill
filter, string filter, and string replace filter. It adds the property
"inverse" in the string filter and kill filter, which allows the user to
invert the result of the regular expression string search.

[061] - OpenVZ kernel 2.6.8-028stab078.14
by Kir Kolyshkin (http://freshmeat.net/users/k001/)
Fri, Jul 21st 2006 10:00
System :: Operating System Kernels :: Linux
About: OpenVZ is a modified Linux kernel with additional support for
OpenVZ Virtual Environments (VE, also known as VPS). VEs are isolated,
secure environments on a single physical server, enabling better server
utilization and ensuring that applications do not conflict. Each VE
performs and executes exactly like a stand-alone server; VEs can be
rebooted independently and have root access, users, IP addresses, memory,
processes, files, applications, system libraries, and configuration files.
Due to a single kernel model, OpenVZ has native performance and very high
density. It is the core of Virtuozzo.
Changes: This release adds mainstream security updates (fixing
CVE-2006-3626 and CVE-2006-1523) and driver updates.
