- James suggested using gcc's "deprecated" attribute to mark the context
structure fields to generate warnings. This creates a scenario with the
best of all worlds. I'm able to move to an organization that more easily
allows future enhancements, while avoiding any mandatory changes by
applications. Thanks, James!
- Updated WHATSNEW.txt so that it accurately reflects the current state of
affairs.

- Ensured that all public functions have documentation in libsmbclient.h
- Reformatted for "proper" indentation
- Re-added temporarily-disabled alternate authentication function capability

The libsmbclient interface has suffered from difficulty of improvement and
feature enrichment without causing ABI breakage. Although there were a number
of issues, the primary ones were:
(a) the user of the library would manually manipulate the context structure
members, meaning that nothing in the context structure could change other
than adding stuff at the end;
(b) there were three methods of setting options: setting bits in a flags field
within the context structure, setting explicit options variables within an
options structure in the context structure, and by calling the
smbc_option_set() function;
(c) the authentication callback did not traditionally provide enough
information to the callee which required adding an option for a callback
with a different signature, and now there are requests for even more
information at the callback, requiring yet a third signature and option to
set it (if we implement that feature).
This commit provides a reorganization of the code which fixes (a) and (b).
The context structure is now entirely opaque, and there are setter and getter
functions for manipulating it. This makes maintaining ABI consistency much,
much easier.
Additionally, the options setting/getting has been unified into a single
mechanism using smbc_option_set() and smbc_option_get().
Yet to be completed is a refactoring of the authentication callback (c).
The test programs in examples/libsmbclient have been modified (if necessary;
some applications require no changes at all) for the new API and a few have
been minimally tested.

As discussed with Volker, it is better to calculate FS capabilities at
connection time. We already do this with help of VFS statvfs() call
which allows to fill-in system-specific attributes including FS
capabilities. So just re-use it if you want to represent additional
capabilities in your modules. The only caution is that you need to
call underlying statvfs() call to actually get system-specific
capabilities (and other fields) added. Then add module-specific ones.
This makes sense as upper levels are only taking returned result of 0
(no error) into consideration when deciding whether to mark file
offline/online as returned from is_offline.
That means that we simply can move the decision down to VFS module and
clean up upper levels so that they always see only file status. If there
is an error when trying to identify file status, then VFS module could
decide what to return (offline or online) by itself -- after all, it
ought to have system-specific knowledge anyway.
There's been a problem seen where open/read/close a number of times causes
open failures eventually. This program has been modified to create the
context once and then loop requesting file names to open/read/close.
This program also demonstrates the current error in cli_read() where it
returns an error instead of length 0 upon end of file.

When the capability of using full names for DOS attributes was added, a bug
was introduced which caused the wrong number of bytes to be returned. This
patch to smbc_listxattr_ctx() fixes the problem.
Thanks to Jack Schmidt for this patch.

to lists of groups (or aliases). Useful for creating large test
scenarios.

This is done via rpc client. The main purpose is to
be able to fill a domain controller with a large number
of users / groups easily. A the object names are
built as <prefix><num> where number ranges from a given
start number counting up until a given number of objects
has been created.
In a next step, I will submit scripts to add (many) users to
a group and to add a user to (many) groups.
