A light-weight Redis client library for C/C++

All notable changes to the Sigmyne/redisx library will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

[Unreleased]

Fixed

  • #40: Default definition of LIB in test/Makefile, when not explicitly set by user. (by traitimtrongvag)

[1.0.4] - 2026-06-15

Maintenance release, with bug fixes and improved portability.

Fixed

  • #29: Occasional segfaults when link is shut down.

  • #35: Fixed redisxPrintDelimited() for attribute RESP type.

  • Fixed deadlock in redisxGetAvailable().

  • Fix potential buffer overflow at build time in docedit.c (changed sprintf() to snprintf()).

  • redisxSelectDB() to store updated DB index (it did not before).

  • Fixed thread-safe disconnect procedure to avoid occasional deadlocks and race conditions.

  • CMake redisxConfig to skip requiring math lib for non-Windows platforms in general, since it can fail if the math library is in the build path, but not in the search path, such as for some cross builds (see e.g. the vcpkg Android builds)

  • Various smaller fixes to issues spotted by Copilot AI.

Added

  • #30: Added CMake build configuration and CI workflows.

Changed

  • #31: Portability to Windows / MSC.

  • #33: More efficient reading of large string data, by skipping intermediate buffer when not necessary.

  • #34: Use snprintf() instead of sprintf() provided it’s available. (On older platforms prior to the C99 standard, it defaults to sprintf().)

  • Removed superfluous (and potentially problematic) error check in rReadToken().

  • examples/Makefile to work standalone, without config.mk.

[1.0.3] - 2026-02-16

Maintenance release.

Fixed

  • #26: redisxDisconnect() did not close subscription client.

Changed

  • Disconnecting a Redis instance now shuts down reads on its clients immediately, ensuring that we don’t wait forever on blocked reads.

  • No incomplete array warnings from disabled (closed) clients.

[1.0.2] - 2025-11-17

Maintenance release.

Changed

  • #13: Replaced deprecated inet_addr() and inet_ntoa() functions with more modern equivalents, which support IPv6 also.

[1.0.1] - 2025-08-01

Bug fix release.

Fixed

  • IPv6 host name resolution.

Changed

  • Sockets are now always initialized with SO_LINGER disabled. Previously that was the case only when a timeout value was configured.

  • More consistent distinction between debug messages (i.e. error traces), verbose output, and warning messages.

[1.0.0] - 2025-05-06

Initial public release.
