It _is_ being used internally. I think that unless someone speaks up for the benefit of providing this function in the API we'll just leave it as-is and add a stronger DEPRECATED wording in the man page for it. This saves us an soname bump. I'll start a new document or list somewhere for "stuff to do at next soname bump" and I'll add the removal of this function to that list. -- / daniel.haxx.se ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ libssh2-devel mailing list libssh2-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/libssh2-devel
