Noteworthy changes in version 3.0.0 (2024-06-18)

• API change: For new code, which uses libassuan with nPTH, please use gpgrt_get_syscall_clamp and assuan_control, instead of the system_hooks API. Use of ASSUAN_SYSTEM_NPTH is deprecated with new API version 3. If it's really needed to keep using old implementation of ASSUAN_SYSTEM_NPTH, you need to change your your application code, to define ASSUAN_REALLY_REQUIRE_V2_NPTH_SYSTEM_HOOKS before including <assuan.h>. For an application which uses version 2 API (NEED_LIBASSUAN_API=2 in its configure.ac), use of ASSUAN_SYSTEM_NPTH is still supported. [T5914]
• New function assuan_control. [T6625]
• New function assuan_sock_accept. [T5925]
• New functions assuan_pipe_wait_server_termination and assuan_pipe_kill_server to support abstraction of process. [T6487]
• Windows support for sendfd/recvfd. [T6236]
• Implement timeout in assuan_sock_connect_byname. [T3302]
• No support for WindowsCE, any more. [T6170]
• New socket flags "linger" and "reuseaddr". [rA87f92fe962]

assuan_sock_accept                  NEW.
assuan_pipe_wait_server_termination NEW.
assuan_pipe_kill_server             NEW.

Noteworthy changes in version 3.0.2 (2025-02-18)

• Fix for FreeBSD to set the pid of assuan_peercred_t. [rAdfa5e6532d]
• Use socklen_t for the length of socket address. [T5924]
• Fix errno setting on Widnows for assuan_sock_bind failure. [T7456]
• New assuan_sock_get_flag "w32_error" to get the actual Windows error after a system call and not just the mapped errno. [T7456] (Not to be considered an API change because it is debugging aid)
