  • liblognorm 1.1.3 released

    We have just released liblognorm 1.1.3. This release contains support for libfastjson and now works on Solaris. See the Changelog for details.

    Changelog:
    Version 1.1.3, 2016-03-07

    • add support for libfastjson
    • make work on Solaris
    • check for runaway rules.
      A runaway rule is one that has unmatched percent signs and thus
      is not terminated properly at its end. This also means we no longer
      accept “rule=” at the first column of a continuation line, which is
      no problem (see doc for more information).
    • fix: process last line if it misses the terminating LF
      This problem occurs with the very last line of a rulebase (at EOF).
      If it is not properly terminated (LF missing), it is silently ignored.
      Previous versions did obviously process lines in this case. While
      technically this is invalid input, we can’t outrule that such rulebases
      exist. For example, they do in the rsyslog testbench, which made
      us aware of the problem (see https://github.com/rsyslog/rsyslog/issues/489 )
      I think the proper way of addressing this is to process such lines without
      termination, as many other tools do as well.

  • liblognorm 1.1.2 released

    We have just released liblognorm 1.1.2. This release contains new parser syntaxes and some fixes.

    Changes:
    Version 1.1.2, 2015-07-20

    • permit newline inside parser definition
    • new parser “cisco-interface-spec”
    • new parser “json” to process json parts of the message
    • new parser “mac48” to process mac layer addresses
    • new parser “name-value-list” (currently inofficial, experimental)
    • some parsers did incorrectly report success when an error occurred
      this was caused by inconsistencies between various macros. We have
      changed the parser-generation macros to match the semantics of the
      broader CHKN/CHKR macros and also restructured/simplified the
      parser generation macros.
      closes https://github.com/rsyslog/liblognorm/issues/41
    • call “rest” parser only if nothing else matches.
      Versions prior to 1.1.2 did execute “rest” during regular parser
      processing, and thus parser matches have been more or less random.
      With 1.1.2 this is now always the last parser called. This may cause
      problems with existing rulesets, HOWEVER, adding any other rule or
      changing the load order would also have caused problems, so there
      really is no compatibility to preserve.
      see also:
      http://blog.gerhards.net/2015/04/liblognorms-rest-parser-now-more-useful.html
    • new API to support error callbacks
      This permits callers to forward messages in regard to e.g. wrong rule
      bases to their users, which is very useful and actually missing in the
      previous code base. So far, we only have few error messages.
      However, we will review the code and add more. The important part is
      that callers can begin to use the new API and thus will benefit when
      we add more error messages.
    • testbench is now enabled by default
    • bugfix: misadressing on some constant values
      see also https://github.com/rsyslog/liblognorm/pull/67
      Thanks to github user ontholerian for the patch
    • bugfix: add missing function prototypes
      This could potentially lead to problems on some platforms,
      especially those with 64 bit pointers.

  • liblognorm 1.1.1 released

    We have just released liblognorm 1.1.1. This release contains new parser syntaxes and some fixes.

    Changes:

    Version 1.1.1, 2015-03-09

    • fixed library version numbering
      Thanks to Tomas Heinreich for reporting the problem.
    • added new parser syntaxes
      Thanks to Janmejay Singh for implementing most of them.
    • bugfix: function ln_parseFieldDescr() returns state value due to unitialized variable. This can also lead to invalid returning no sample node where one would have to be created.
