[1.0.4-rc3] - 2026-05-31

Upcoming maintenance release, expected between 1 July and 1 August 2026.

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.

  • 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.
