notmuch/lib, branch 0.3

lib: Increment library version to 1.1.0

2010-04-27T09:02:14Z

For the addition of the new NOTMUCH_SORT_UNSORTED value.

lib: Re-implement moving of thread authors.

2010-04-27T08:48:03Z

Just before releasing 0.3 we received reports of crashes that were bisected to the commit adding thread-author moving. Sure enough, valgrind pointed to buffer overruns in _thread_move_matched_author. Rather than trying to make sense of all the by strncpy, strchr, +1, and +2 of that code, I reimplemented thread-author ordering with a pair of hash tables and an array. Valgrind is at least happy now on the test cases it was complaining about previously.

Make Received: header special in notmuch_message_file_get_header

2010-04-26T21:44:06Z

With this patch the Received: header becomes special in the way we treat headers - this is the only header for which we concatenate all the instances we find (instead of just returning the first one). This will be used in the From guessing code for replies as we need to be able to walk ALL of the Received: headers in a message to have a good chance to guess which mailbox this email was delivered to.

Simple attempt to display author names in a friendlier way

2010-04-26T18:45:29Z

This patch only addresses the typical Outlook/Exchange case where we have "Last, First" or "Last, First MI" . In the future we should be more fexible as to the formats we recognize, but for now we address this one as it is the Exchange default setting and therefore the most common one.

Reorder displayed names of thread authors

2010-04-26T18:45:00Z

When displaying threads as result of a search it makes sense to list those authors first who match the search. The matching authors are separated from the non-matching ones with a '|' instead of a ',' Imagine the default "+inbox" query. Those mails in the thread that match the query are actually "new" (whatever that means). And some people seem to think that it would be much better to see those author names first. For example, imagine a long and drawn out thread that once was started by me; you have long read the older part of the thread and removed the inbox tag. Whenever a new email comes in on this thread, prior to this patch the author column in the search display will first show "Dirk Hohndel" - I think it should first show the actual author(s) of the new mail(s).

Add authors member to message

2010-04-26T18:44:49Z

lib: Ensure notmuch_query_search_messages returns NULL on an exception.

2010-04-24T14:27:50Z

Previously, this function may have segfaulted immediately after reporting the exception.

lib: Document that notmuch_query_count_messages may return 0 if an exception occurs

2010-04-24T14:27:50Z

This isn't a behavioral change---just a calrification in the documentation.

lib: Audit all notmuch_database call for Xapian exception handling.

2010-04-24T14:27:50Z

Our current approach is for top-level entry poitns in the library to have try/catch blocks that catch any Xapian exception and print a message. Add a few missing blocks and fix up the documentation.

lib: Audit calls to notmuch_message_get_header to handle NULL return

2010-04-24T13:50:04Z

Sebastian Spaeth reported [*] a segfault within libnotmuch when running notmuch operations while an asyncronous offlineimap job had removed some files from the mail store. Avoid this by handling all cases where notmuch_message_get_header could return NULL. [*] See message id:87d3xqti3o.fsf@SSpaeth.de on notmuch@notmuchmail.org
