[lwip-users] [lwip] lwIP version 0.4.2 released

[Adam Dunkels]

Hi all!

In order to syncronize us all to a common codebase, and to fix some bugs in 
the 0.4.1 version, version 0.4.2 of lwIP is hereby released. The changes from 
version 0.4.1 are:

  ++ New features:

  * Experimental ARP implementation added (file src/netif/arp.c)

  * Skeleton Ethernet driver added (file src/netif/ethernetif.c).

  * Experimental BSD socket API library added (file src/api/sockets.c).

  ++ Bugfixes:

  * In very intense situations, memory leakage could occur. This has
    been fixed.

  ++ Other changes:

  * Variables named "data" and "code" have been renamed in order to
    avoid name conflicts in certain compilers.

  * Variable++ have in appliciable cases been translated to ++variable
    since some compilers generate better code in the latter case.

As usual, it can be downloaded from the "download" section of the lwIP 
homepage. Big thanks to all who have provided bug reports and fixes!

This will also allow me to start working on version 0.5. The plans for the 
0.5 version are:

* Addition of TCP keep-alives
* Better control of TCP output buffers
* Better sys_arch arrangement - timer scheduling will be moved out of the 
sys_arch implementation.

Also, Joe's HTML version of the lwIP source code is now avaliable!
