b10-xfrout outgoing AXFR service, and a new C++ libdns++ library
(with python wrappers). It contains prototype code and experimental
interfaces.
Documentation is included and also available via the BIND 10
website at http://bind10.isc.org/

A summary of the significant changes since the previous release
include (from the ChangeLog):
84. [bug] jinmei, jerry
This is a quick fix patch for the issue: AXFR fails half the
time because of connection problems. xfrout client will make
a new connection every time. (Trac #299, svn r2697)
83. [build]*
The configure --with-boost-lib option is removed. It was not
used since the build included ASIO. (svn r2684)
82. [func] jinmei
bin/auth: Added -u option to allow the effective process user
of the authoritative server after invocation. The same option to
the boss process will be propagated to b10-auth, too.
(Trac #268, svn r2675)
81. [func] jinmei
Added a C++ framework for micro benchmark tests. A supplemental
library functions to build query data for the tests were also
provided. (Trac #241, svn r2664)
80. [bug] jelte
bindctl no longer accepts configuration changes for unknown or
non-running modules (for the latter, this is until we have a
way to verify those options, at which point it'll be allowed
again).
(Trac #99, r2657)
79. [func] feng, jinmei
Refactored the ASIO link interfaces to move incoming XFR and
NOTIFY processing to the auth server class. Wrapper classes for
ASIO specific concepts were also provided, so that other BIND 10
modules can (eventually) use the interface without including the
ASIO header file directly. On top of these changes, AXFR and
NOTIFY processing was massively improved in terms of message
validation and protocol conformance. Detailed tests were provided
to confirm the behavior.
Note: Right now, NOTIFY doesn't actually trigger subsequent zone
transfer due to security reasons. (Trac #221, r2565)
78. [bug] jinmei
lib/dns: Fixed miscellaneous bugs in the base32 (hex) and hex
(base16) implementation, including incorrect padding handling,
parser failure in decoding with a SunStudio build, missing
validation on the length of encoded hex string. Test cases were
more detailed to identify these bugs and confirm the fix. Also
renamed the incorrect term of "base32" to "base32hex". This
changed the API, but they are not intended to be used outside
libdns++, so we don't consider it a backward incompatible change.
(Trac #256, r2549)
77. [func] zhanglikun
Make error message be more friendly when running cmdctl and it's
already running (listening on same port). (Trac #277, r2540)
76. [bug] jelte
Fixed a bug in the handling of 'remote' config modules (i.e.
modules that peek at the configuration of other modules), where
they answered 'unknown command' to commands for those other
modules. (Trac #278, r2506)
75. [bug] jinmei
Fixed a bug in the sqlite3 data source where temporary strings
could be referenced after destruction. It caused various lookup
failures with SunStudio build. (Trac #288, r2494)
74. [func]* jinmei
Refactored the cc::Session class by introducing an abstract base
class. Test code can use their own derived mock class so that
tests can be done without establishing a real CC session. This
change also modified some public APIs, mainly in the config
module. (Trac #275, r2459)
73. [bug] jelte
Fixed a bug where in bindctl, locally changed settings were
reset when the list of running modules is updated. (Trac #285,
r2452)
72. [build] jinmei
Added -R when linking python wrapper modules to libpython when
possible. This helps build BIND 10 on platforms that install
libpython whose path is unknown to run-time loader. NetBSD is a
known such platform. (Trac #148, r2427)
71. [func] each
Add "-a" (address) option to bind10 to specify an address for
the auth server to listen on.
70. [func] each
Added a hot-spot cache to libdatasrc to speed up access to
repeatedly-queried data and reduce the number of queries to
the underlying database; this should substantially improve
performance. Also added a "-n" ("no cache") option to
bind10 and b10-auth to disable the cache if needed.
(Trac #192, svn r2383)
Please share your feedback. If you currently use BIND 10 or plan
to use BIND 10 soon, please let us know.
