2020-01-31 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Allow non-integer numbers in the "PageSize"
option in PPD files. Thanks to Andreas Gruenbacher (agruenba at
redhat dot com) for the patch (Pull request #1).
2015-06-16 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* configure.ac: Allow user-configurable PERLPREFIX via environment
variable (Bug #1294).
2014-11-14 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-ppdfile.in: Foomatic doesn't provide some offered PPD
files. Thanks to Marek Kasik for the patch (bug #1238).
2014-08-22 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-ppd-to-xml.in: Let missing XML files be added when to a
PPD with already existing XML files new "*Product:" lines get
added.
* lib/Foomatic/filters/xml/to.pm: Silenced warnings about
uninitialized strings.
2014-03-20 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Do not interpret option default values set to
"0" in PPD files as no default setting defined. Thanks to Deng
Pang from Ricoh (DengPang at rst dot ricoh dot com) for the report.
2014-01-02 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-addpjloptions.in: Make foomatic-addpjloptions work with
the system's Foomatic database, too.
2013-03-11 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Error out when initializing the DB object
without any form of a Foomatic database being present, made
the getpage() method a normal, object-independent function as
it does not need a Foomatic database.
* foomatic-configure.in, foomatic-printjob.in: Updated to use
getpage() as a normal function, fixed CUPS check, made
foomatic-printjob working without presence of a Foomatic
database.
2012-02-15 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/filters/sql/from.pm: Finished support for
pulling options from the sql database.
* ChangeLog: Fixed spacing in last five commit comments.
2012-02-14 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/filters/sql/from.pm: Added support
for the option_choice_translation and
options_translation table. Refactored existing code.
2012-02-09 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/filters/sql/from.pm: Added support
for the option_choice table.
2012-02-05 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/filters/xml/to.pm, lib/Foomatic/DB.pm:
Moved xml generation functionality to filter.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Typo fix.
* lib/Foomatic/filters/xml/to.pm: Fixed indentation.
2012-01-30 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/filters/sql/from.pm: Added initial pull_option()
loop. So far only pulls basic data from the sql db.
* lib/Foomatic/filters/sql/to.pm: Fixed bug where style
was not getting set if the style was "forced_composite"
Removed redundent commit that sqlite was complaing about.
* lib/Fooamtic/DB.pm: Cleaned up get_driver(), get_option(),
and get_printer() unifying them with a control flow with
early returns.
2012-01-07 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/(sqlLayer.pm|xmlParse.pm|phonebook.pm):
Subdivided these into categories under
lib/Foomatic/filters/*/ thus reducing clutter. I'm working on
refactoring (or at least moving arround) to get DB.pm down to
a managable size.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm, foomatic-xml-to-sqlite.in:
Changed refernces to the above files to match their new homes.
* foomatic-compiledb.in: Removed killing of childern threads.
This speeds up generating the ppd db by letting the cache fill
with drivers and options.
Achived a complete ppd build in ~4 minutes using a child worker
thread for each core of my early 2009 quad core amd.
Should be noted that the c xml parers had no caching so this
speed up does not work in 4 series foomatic.
2012-01-06 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Fixed typo in get_combo_data_from_sql_db()
method.
2012-01-06 Jeff Licquia <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Optimized regexps in the normalize() function
and removed unneeded calls of normalize(), vastly improving speed
of printer search operations, as they are done for queries via
the web query API on the OpenPrinting web server.
2011-12-23 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* foomatic-test-build.in: finished this test script.
The script has already helped, turns out I had a error
in my standard build process that meant I wasn't
actaully building the new sources. I whiched foomatic-
test-build to use the standard perl option parsing
functions.
2011-12-17 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* unit-test/: I'm reverting my addition of this folder.
I do not want to mess with the build script. Maybe
sometime when I am more familiar with the scripts I'll
feel safe adding a new directory.
* foomatic-test-build.ln: added work in progress automated
build script. Will make the write&test process faster.
* configure.ac, Makefile.in: Reflected file moves. Moved
the scripts I wrote into the admin scripts section.
2011-12-11 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* configure.ac: I missed a configuration change in last commit.
The verify xml script did not have its location changed in
configure.ac. Apologies to Yuji Saito who caught my mistake.
2011-12-10 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* ./unit-tests/: Added a unit test directory. In preparation for
get_option() I want to bring the unit tests I wrote over the summer
into mainline. get_option() will of course require another unit test.
* foomatic-verify-xml.in: Moved into ./unit-tests/.
2011-08-15 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* DB.pm: Removed debug code, added note about get_option missing support
for sql backend.
2011-08-15 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* phonebook.pm: Added elements for sql support, added sql schema
* sqlLayer.pm: Initial commit from dev branch:
https://launchpad.net/gsoc2011danieldressler/sqllayer
Handles the brunt work of sqlite exportation.
* foomatic-xml-to-sqlite: Initial commit from dev branch
2011-08-12 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* DB.pm: Fixed a regression introduced in my last patch. Fixed handling of
pjl options in nopjl drivers. DB.pm with sqlite backend now produces the
same ppds are xlmParse backend.
2011-08-12 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* DB.pm: Fixed typo in last commit, mixed much older typo in
get_combo_from_sql() that was causing a printer's margins to be duplicated
as combo margins.
* DB.pm: Added useing a printer's dpi if it is lower than the driver's
default to the sql code path. Fixed typo in sql. Noxml printers now
default to colour=true, this matches the behaviour of the C programs which
if how xmlParse does things. Fixed driver nopjl option by properly
prefixing the key with 'driver'.
2011-08-11 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* DB.pm: Working code path for generating ppds from sqlite backend.
Required altering several sql to avoid mysql specific behaviour.
Removed use of if() function replaced with sql cases, split multistatement
Drop table calls into single statement calls.
2011-08-09 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* DB.pm: working creation of overview with sqlite backend. Made three
openprinting website specific functions no-op for none mysql dbs.
Removed order by binary() from two sql statements.
2011-08-08 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* DB.pm: Added creation of sqlite database handle.
* DB.pm: Fixed typos in my last commit.
2011-07-29 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* DB.pm: Fixed a typo in get_driver(), added the function get_option(),
and made the primary get_*() functions take an optional version argument.
Version argument then gets passed to xmlParse, defaults to 0, which is
compatability with the C programs.
2011-07-22 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-ppdfile.in: Removed unneeded creation of the overview
if foomatic-ppdfile is called with a printer for which there is no
XML file. Formerly, as printer/driver pairs with a printer without
XML entry were not valid, the use of a non-listed printer was
assumed to be a typo and a case-insensitive search in the database
was done. Now an invalid printer input leads to an error message
when requesting the combo, which is much faster, both for getting
a PPD for a non-listed valid printer and an error message for an
invalid printer.
* lib/Foomatic/xmlParse.pm: Delete also the "printers_byname" fields
in clones of driver entries during the overview. Otherwise it comes
to memory explosions if only a few big driver entries get added to
the database. Now scalability seems to work well.
2011-07-20 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* xmlParse.pm: noXml printers now default to color == true.
2011-07-20 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* DB.pm: now uses xmlParse version 2 for combos
* phonebook.pm: comboppdentry and cmd_pdf are now copied for
combos.
* xmlParse.pm: renamed cleanID to getCleanId. renamed
generalGroups to setGeneralGroups. Fixed getDriverPrinter().
Fixed two typos in getPrinterSpecificDriver(). Brought noXml
printer data generation into own function. Fixed isPairSupported
now works if only one xml contains printer/driver entries.
Added getXmlPath() which supports getting the paths for xmls
in the library path and in the working directory.
Brought driver and printer caching into its own function, used
by parseCombo. Provided the xmlParse object stays alive combo
generation will be cpu bound. Added support in parseCombo for
noXml printers.
2011-07-20 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* xmlParse.pm: Changed default combo data to use more
rebust user detection. Added support for ppdentry in
driver's list of printers. Made this ppdentry get included
in combos under the key comboppentry.
* phonebook.pm: Add the obsolete key to the list of keys
copied from driver data to combos.
* DB.pm: put back generalentries() I removed had removed it
thinking that it was obsolete. Also changed get_combo_data
to use the new error logging key.
2011-07-19 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/xmlParse.pm: Fixed the "extended overview" CUPS
overview mode. It did not set the $printer->{'drivers'} keys.
2011-07-19 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* Renamed "skipPPDs" to cupsMode.
* Addded "extended overview" to parseOverview, when cupsMode == 2
pairs with ppd specific ppds are not skipped.
2011-07-19 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/xmlParse.pm: When reading references to printer IDs
in driver and option XML files, always apply the
translate_printer_id() function from DB.pm, as in foomatic-db
there are still some old references which were forgotten to be
updated (bug).
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Optimized translate_printer_id() by caching
the translation table in memory instead of reading it again on every
call.
* lib/Foomatic/xmlParse.pm: Added some comments which work around a bug
in the syntax highlighting of emacs, so that the file appears
correctly highlighted and therefore more readable in emacs.
2011-07-18 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* Fixed xmlParse's parseOverview not skipping drivers with no
command line or pdf command line.
2011-07-18 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* Fixed xmlParse attempting to use driver->{'id'} in stead of
driver->{'name'} in isPairSupported() and parseCombo()'s error log
2011-07-17 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* Added printer_byname key to driver data structure for fast lookup,
only version 2 and better
* parseCombo() now caches the drivers. This speeds up bulk ppd
generation.
* getPrinterSpecificDriver() now only clones when needed,
saving ~9 seconds off an overview
* 'log' keys now exist in DB and xmlParse objects,
errors get logged there.
* parseCombo() now checks that the driver/printer pair is supported.
* skipIfXml argument added to get_drivers_for_printer(), ppdfile uses it
to avoid a overview generation, possible because parseCombo will
now error if a pair is unsupported.
* Fixed parseOverview not adding a driver to a printer's list of
supported drivers during driver driven combination.
2011-07-15 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* Fixed get_overview(), I had double quotes arround a glob
I thought they were option =<. Removed on disk caching of overview
code. This code was already no-op'd and obsolete due to an
in memory cache.
* Fix in get_combo_data(), I was using the default driver instead of the
one passed as an argument.
2011-07-15 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-combo-xml.1.in, foomatic-combo-xml.c,
foomatic-fix-xml.in. foomatic-perl-data.1.in,
foomatic-perl-data.c, README, USAGE, Makefile.in, configure.ac:
Removed the C accelerators foomatic-combo-xml and
foomatic-perl-data. With Daniel Dressler's new code they are not
needed any more. Also removed foomatic-fix-xml which is a
workaround for a bug in libxml1. libxml1 is not supported any more
since the removal of the C accelerators.
2011-07-15 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* get_combo_data() now uses xmlParse. Removed some debug code
from xmlParse
2011-07-14 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* Fixed imports in lib/Foomatic/DB.pm, lib/Foomatic/xmlParse.pm,
lib/Foomatic/phonebook.pm. DB::get_printer, DB::get_driver,
and DB::get_overview now use the perl xmlParse.
* Replaced body of get_combo_data_xml and get_overview_xml with an error
that the function is deprecated.
* getdat has been renamed to get_combo_data, getdat is now a stub
for its new name.
2011-07-13 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-verify-xml.pl, foomatic-verify-xml.in, Makefile.in,

Some text clean-up.
2011-07-09 Daniel Dressler <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm, lib/Foomatic/xmlParse.pm,
lib/Foomatic/phonebook.pm: Added new code for parsing the XML
database without helper programs written in C.
* Added foomatic-verify-xml.pl, a helper script for verifying
the xml database against our xml schemas using xmlint
2011-06-30 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/PPD.pm: Improved printer entry searh algorithm
(find_printer() method) in two points:
1. Score match of only make and model in printer ID of the entry
higher than match of make and model fields of the entry but
lower than match of full printer ID. This raises the relevance
of printer ID matches if the search term contains only a partial
device ID consisting of only the make and model fields.
2. Score a printer entry with an actual printer XML file 1 point
higher than an implicit printer entry only coming from a
printer name in a driver's printer list. This raises the
relevance of actual printer XML entries.

supplying me this patch from Red Hat.
2011-01-04 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Improved code of the _get_xml_filelist()
function: This avoids repeated construction of the "names-$dir"
string and a crash of Perl if the directory does not contain any
XML file (bug #613). Thanks to Christopher Yeleighton (giecrilj at
stegny dot 2a dot pl) for the report.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Fixed wrong quotes in error message which
prevented a variable from being substituted by its value (bug
#612). Thanks to Christopher Yeleighton (giecrilj at stegny dot 2a

* configure.ac: Replaced deprecated AC_OUTPUT with argumenmts by
the correct usage (bug #611). Thanks to Christopher Yeleighton
(giecrilj at stegny dot 2a dot pl) for the hint.

* configure.ac: Make choosing the install directory for Perl libraries
really working. The code which was commented out was not working.
Now bug #605 is really fixed.
2011-01-03 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* configure.ac, acinclude.m4: Avoid name space conflicts by letting
the names of our own macros start with "FM_" and not with "AC_"
(bug #609). Thanks to Christopher Yeleighton (giecrilj at stegny
dot 2a dot pl) for the report.
* configure.ac: Allow choosing the install directory for the
Perl library DB.pm (perl, site, vendor). Requires autoconf 2.52
or newer (checked with "AC_PREREQ([2.52])"). Bug #605. Thanks
to Christopher Yeleighton (giecrilj at stegny dot 2a dot pl) for

* foomatic-perl-data.c: Eliminated compiler warnings by consistent
use of "const" with xmlChar and char variables (bug #604). Thanks
to Christopher Yeleighton (giecrilj at stegny dot 2a dot pl) for
the patch.
* foomatic-combo-xml.c: Improved readability of the code by using
symbolic constants and additional comments. Also eliminated
warnings about value-less "return"s and unused variables (bug
#599, #600, #601). Thanks to Christopher Yeleighton (giecrilj at
stegny dot 2a dot pl) for the patch.

* README: Documented special entities for inserting job parameters,
like "&job;", "&user;", "&host;", "&title;", "&options;", ...
2010-12-13 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-ppd-to-xml.in: Allow generating a printer XML files also
from more than one PPD file for the same printer with only one call
of the foomatic-ppd-to-xml script. Feature request from George Liu
from Ricoh (bug #565).
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Allow loading arbitrary printer and driver
XML files into the Perl data structure, not only XML files which
are in the current XML database.
When generating Perl data from a PPD do not add a new paragraph to
the printer comments if the added comment is empty.
2010-12-09 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* Makefile.in: Rearranged gcc command line so that linking works
with gcc 4.5.x (Ubuntu bug #687973).
2010-12-08 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Sort the driver lists in printer XML files
alphabetically (case-insensitive) when generating XML files from
a Perl data structure, so that the files are identical to the
MySQL -> XML exporter on the OpenPrinting web servers. This
prevents automatic BZR commits into foomatic-db or
foomatic-db-nonfree which contain nothing more than driver list
reordering.
* README, lib/Foomatic/DB.pm, ppdtoxml: Use always a single space
before the closing "/>" of body-less tags. This way the XML style
of files committed to the BZR repositories of foomatic-db and
foomatic-db-nonfree is the same as the XML style used by the
export of XML from the MySQL database on the OpenPrinting web
server and so the daily synchronization does not commit pure
XML style changes into the BZR repositories.
2010-11-26 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm, foomatic-ppd-to-xml.in: Added new features to
foomatic-ppd-to-xml: Now custom comments can be added (-c), the
deafult comments can get suppressed (-C), and XML files with only
te drivers requested with -r and -d can be generated (-D).
2010-08-30 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Do not die if the C helper programs
foomatic-combo-xml and foomatic-perl-data fail. Simply return
undef so that the caller can handle the error.

Apollo-P-2100-hpijs and driver pcl3.
2010-07-10 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm, foomatic-perl-data.c: Added support for the new
"fingerprint" parameter of the <package> tag.
2010-07-05 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* README: Documented new "fingerprint" parameter for the <package>
tag. It provides a link to key fingerprint on the web site of the
issuer of the driver.

* Makefile.in: Do "make install" in lib/ directory with explicit
use of DESTDIR. Otherwise it can come to a duplicate insertion
of DESTDIR. Thanks to Tim Mooney for the patch (Bug #445).
* configure.ac: Simplified and generalized the check for the Perl
library directory prefix in the configure script. Thanks to Tim
Mooney (Bug #418).
* configure.ac: Check for functions of libxml with CFLAGS and LIBS
containing the detected references to libxml. Thanks to Tim Mooney

2010-04-27 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: "*FoomaticRIPNoPageAccounting" was not inserted
into the generated Foomatic PPDs when the printer/driver data was
read from a MySQL database. Fixed.
2010-04-06 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Implemented two acceleration modes to the
overview request from the MySQL database
get_overview_from_sql_db(): $speedmode = 0: Full overview;
$speedmode = 1: Do not query auxiliary tables of the driver
entries; $speedmode = 2: Do not query driver entries at
all (former $nodrivers = 1). This is needed for the OpenPrinting
web server. The web query interface uses the printer search
find_printer() and this printer search requests an overview which
needs to be accelerated to obtain reasonable response
times. Before, we did not read driver entries, but as we nowadays
allow to define a printer by only listing it in a driver entry, we
must read driver entries to find all printers. So we accelerate by
simply not reading auxiliary tables but only the printer and
driver list tables.
2010-03-16 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: apply_driver_and_pdl_info(): Do not add
"lj5mono" to the list of suitable drivers any more, this driver
entry was removed from the OpenPrinting database.
2010-02-26 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-printermap-to-gutenprint-xml.in: Adjusted indenting of the
generated XML code to match the indenting of the XML code exported
from the MySQL database on the OpenPrinting web server.
2010-02-05 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* README: Corrected PPD keyword: It must read
"*FoomaticRIPNoPageAccounting" and not "*FoomaticNoPageAccounting".
2010-02-01 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>

now required for driver XML files where binary driver packages are
provided on the OpenPrinting web server.
2010-01-26 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-compiledb.in: Do not check whether there is a printer
database entry for a given printer/driver combo, we can generate
PPDs also without printer entry.
2010-01-25 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-combo-xml.c, foomatic-ppdfile.in, lib/Foomatic/DB.pm:
Made Foomatic generating Foomatic PPD files if there is no
printer XML file for the given printer/driver combo (but the
printer listed as supported in the driver XML) and made Foomatic
also returning ready-made PPDs if the driver XML file for the
combo does not exist (driver name mentioned only in the list of
supporting drivers in the printer XML file).
* foomatic-ppdfile.in: Fixed bug of "list" output never including
entries for ready-made PPDs, even if this is selected in
/etc/cups/foomatic.conf.
* foomatic-combo-xml.c: Fixed bug of a driver without <prototype>
tags at all (not only empty but existing <prototype> tags) being
considered as producing Foomatic PPDs. Such driver entries came up
after importing the whole Foomatic DB into MySQL and exporting it
back to XML.
* foomatic-combo-xml.c, lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: If an overview is
requested but only with PPD-producing printer/driver combos and
without ready-made PPDs, combos with both a command line prototype
in their driver XML and a PPD link in their printer XML got
displayed. As Foomatic returns the ready-made PPD in such a case
and not the Foomatic PPDs these entries get suppressed now.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: When using an SQL database the selection
whether only PPD-producing combos get shown and whether
ready-made PPDs should be included works correctly now.
2009-12-26 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* README: Mirrored changes from the README file of foomatic-db.
2009-12-22 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm, foomatic-ppd-to-xml.in: If the PPD file
supplied to foomatic-ppd-to-xml is compressed and should be
linked in the generated printer XML file, assume that it gets
added to the OpenPrinting database uncompressed. Therefore
remove the ".gz" extension from the link.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: If a PPD file supplied to the ppdtoperl()
function contains information about the page description
languages in the device ID or a Foomatic driver ID, use this
information for the generated printer data structure.
2009-12-21 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm, foomatic-ppd-to-xml.in: Allow supplying a
PPD file to foomatic-ppd-to-xml which is not installed into the
Foomatic database tree (then the standard location
db/source/PPD/<make>/<PPD filename> is assumed for a PPD file
link in the printer XML file). Added the "-x" option to
foomatic-ppd-to-xml whichj lets printer XMLs be generated from
the PPD without checking whether the appropriate printers
already exist.
2009-11-19 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Fixes on printer/driver combo data readout
from the SQL database: Option constraint senses were read as
boolean type but they are actually strings containing "true" and
"false"; For the choices the constraints with the highest score
were not correctly selected; Reading of options stopped when
the choice list got completely read, so if boolean or numerical
options (they have no choices) are in the end of the option
list, they got not considered. This broke many Foomatic PPDs,
especially the ones for the "eplaser" and "eplaser-jp"
drivers. Thanks to Hidenori Ishii from Avasys for finding this.
2009-11-17 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Do not add "ev/" to IDs of option default
values from the MySQL database, we create the default value
entries already with "ev/" now to distinguish them from
string/password option defaults.
2009-11-06 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Added support for separate comments from the
printer entry and from the driver entry in the driver_printer_assoc
table.
2009-10-27 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Added a "quick overview mode" generating a
list of printer entries without driver info to the
get_overview_from_sql_db() function. This mode is 10-20 times
faster than the full overview taken from the MySQL database.
Made the find_printer() function way faster when using a
MySQL database and so the server load from driver queries by
printer setup tools gets reduced a lot.
2009-10-08 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* README: Updated the README file for all recent changes and
additions in the XML data format of the Foomatic database.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Set "*ColorDevice:" in the Foomatic PPD
files not only based on whether the printer is a color printer
but also on whether the driver is capable of generating color
output (if appropriate information about the driver is
available).
2009-10-05 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Added support for internationalization by
querying the translation tables of the MySQL database.
2009-09-24 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Let an SQL-based driver query also show the
list of supported printers and a printer query also the list of
suitable drivers, as the XML-based queries do.
2009-09-23 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Added methods make_exists_in_sql_db(),
printer_exists_in_sql_db(), driver_exists_in_sql_db(),
make_exists(), and driver_exists().
Added support for additional MySQL database fields in the driver
entries: group, locale, licenselink. Added also support for the
additional MySQL table for dependencies between drivers.
2009-09-18 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-ppdfile.in: When generating a PPD file, do only generate
the overview if really needed. This makes generating PPDs 10 times
faster whenusing a MySQL database.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Completed get_combo_data_from_sql_db()
method. Now PPDs can be generated based on an SQL database.
Added new methods get_makes_from_sql_db(),
get_models_by_make_from_sql_db(),
get_printer_from_make_model_from_sql_db().
2009-09-17 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Removed line
*cupsFilter: "application/vnd.apple-pdf 25 foomatic-rip"
from the Foomatic-generated PPD files, it causes problems with
some printers on Mac OS X (bug #386, removes enhancement of bug
#313).
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Started work on get_combo_data_from_sql_db().
For now it collects the printer and driver info but not yet the
option data.
2009-09-16 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Added more methods for using an SQL database:
printer_exists_in_sql_db(), get_printers_for_driver_from_sql_db(),
get_drivers_for_printer_from_sql_db(), get_margins_from_sql_db(),
get_driver_packages_from_sql_db
Let overview and driver listing also include links to downloadable
packages and info about unprintable margins.
Do not create unneeded empty fields in the Perl data structures
when reading data sets from the SQL database.
2009-09-14 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Added more methods for using an SQL database:
get_driverlist_from_sql_db(), get_printerlist_from_sql_db(),
get_printer_from_sql_db(), get_driver_from_sql_db(),
get_driver_support_contacts_from_sql_db().
Added helper function get_make_model_from_id().
2009-09-11 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Added first methods for getting the data
from an SQL database instead of from an XML database:
connect_to_mysql_db(), disconnect_from_sql_db(),
get_overview_from_sql_db(), and helper function
read_conf_file(). It is checked whether valid database access
data is in the file mysql.conf in the default configuration
directory, and if so, the MySQL database is used.
Added also a DESTROY() method for Foomatic::DB which closes the
connection to the SQL database if one was used.
2009-08-19 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-ppd-to-xml.in: Added "-n" option to the foomatic-ppd-to-xml
utility. This makes only new printer XML files being generated and
no modified versions of existing files.
2009-08-18 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-preferred-driver.in: The "hpijs" driver entry got replaced
by "hplip".
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Add "hpijs-pcl5e" or "hpijs-pcl5c" or "hplip"
instead of "hpijs" to the driver list of the XML file of a PCL 5c/e
printer if a printer XML file is generated from a PPD file.
Fixed ppd1284DeviceID() function, it did not recognize the
"CMD"/"COMMAND SET" field in the device ID string.
Made sure that the fields in the IEEE-1284 device ID get closed with
a semicolon before adding a new field.
If there is a <ppdentry> XML tag for the printer/driver combo, do not
use the <ppdentry> XML tags for the printer or the driver.
Add "*PSVersion:" keywords for the newest Ghostscript versions to the
PPD files.
2009-07-17 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Added support for multiple "*Product:" lines
in PPD files, improved determination of the model name from the
PPD file, put generation of the Foomatic ID from make and model
into the function generatepid().
* foomatic-ppd-to-xml.in: For determining whether there is already
a Foomatic entry for the given PPD, use also all "*Product:"
lines in the PPD and the PPD links in the XML files in the
OpenPrinting database. Let more than one printer XML file get
created if the PPD has multiple "*Product:" lines. General
support for multiple printer XMLs for one PPD file. Warn if the
"-l" command line switch is used if "-d" is not supplied.
2009-06-22 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: At some points "==" was used to compare strings,
it must be "eq". Especially this broke the PPD generation for all
boolean command-line-style options (bug #356).
2009-05-08 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-combo-xml.c: If a printer XML entry has a driver in its
driver list but for which there is no driver XML entry, this
printer/driver combo was considered as producing a PPD because the
driver is not in the list of drivers without command line
prototype. Replaced the negative list of drivers without command
line prototype by a positive list of drivers with command
line prototype. Now non-existing driver XML files are handled
correctly as drivers not producing PPDs (Ubuntu bug #373371).
2009-05-07 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: If a JCL option is member of a composite option
it was generated incorrectly in the PPD files (Ubuntu bug #361772).
2009-04-23 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* README, USAGE, configure.ac: Set version number to 4.1.0, to be
always newer than the stable branch.
2009-03-17 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-compiledb.in: Fixed copy-and-paste bug in foomatic-compiledb
which broke the "-d" option (bug #319).
2009-02-25 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Added "application/vnd.apple-pdf" as input
mime type to the generated Foomatic PPDs, so that also under Mac
OS X a full PDF printing workflow will get established (bug
#313).

* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: For string and password options the
"*ParamCustom..." keywords were not generated correctly (option
type missing, bug #297).
Changed the way how the driver's short description is added to the
PPD so that it can be longer than 80 characters (bug #296).
2009-01-09 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* Tagged branch for release 4.0.0.
2009-01-08 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-ppdfile.in: "foomatic-ppdfile list" showed wrong PPD
file names for some printers (bug #281).
2009-01-07 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* configure.ac: Bumped version number to 4.0.0.
* foomatic-combo-xml.c: All printers with <postscript> in their
<lang> sections got listed as supported by the "Postscript"
driver. Now explicit assignment of this driver via the
<printers> section in the driver entry or the <drivers> section
in the printer entry is required.
Let the overview for listing only printer/driver combos with
valid PPDs (foomatic-combo-xml -C") also show combos where the
driver is only mentioned in the printer's driver list. Now
foomatic-compiledb really generates all PPDs which are available
on the OpenPrinting web site (bug #291).
* README, USAGE, TODO: Updated for version 4.0.0.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Improved printer search. Now searches with model
number but without product line name also work (ex: "Ricoh MPC3500"
finds the "Ricoh Aficio MP C3500").
* debian/: Removed. The Debian package maintainer does not maintain
the debian directory in this BZR repository.
* foomatic-filters-ppds-README, foomatic-filters-ppds-install,
README.build-foomatic-filters-ppds, Makefile.in: Removed build
of the foomatic-filters-ppds package, as foomatic-rip is now
written in C and so no universal platform-independent tarball of
this type can be created any more.

* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Set default section to 'JCL' when the option is
a JCL option.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Output CUPS custom options.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Set the correct section in OrderDependency
(until now, AnySetup was always used)
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Insert JCL code directly for JCL options (not
via FoomaticRIPOptionSetting); Remove redundant FoomaticRIPOptions
for JCL enumerated choice options.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Surround JCL option values with @PJL...<0A> if
necessary. Quote prototypes of custom JCL options.

* foomatic-perl-data.c: If the overview XML input has no
<functionality> field, the functionality entry stays a NULL
pointer. On some systems like Solaris outputting a NULL pointer
with "printf()" leads to a segmentation fault (under Linux it is
no problem, the output will be "(null)"). Fix for bug #213.
2008-10-28 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Match the field headers of IEEE-1284 device
IDs case insensitively. Some IDs have these headers not
all-uppercase, like Kyocera. Fixed also that the manufacturer
name can creep into the "*Product:" field of the PPD when the
model name cannot be read from the device ID.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Bumped version number in PPD header to 4.0.0.
* README, USAGE, configure.ac, foomatic-addpjloptions.in,
foomatic-perl-data.c, lib/Foomatic/DB.pm:
s/GhostScript/Ghostscript/
* foomatic-ppd-to-xml.in, lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Several fixes to
find existing XMLs and to let merging changes into existing
XMLs work correctly.
2008-10-24 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-ppd-to-xml.in, lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Let
foomatic-ppd-to-xml find already existing printer entries and
merge the reference to the PPD file into them instead of
creating a new XML file. Let all XML files get created in a
user-specified directory.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Let the perltoxml() function not put
hard-coded comments into printer entries.
2008-10-23 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-ppd-to-xml.in, lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Moved driver and PDL
magic of the XML file generation into lib/Foomatic/DB.pm.
2008-10-22 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* foomatic-ppd-to-xml.in, Makefile.in, configure.ac,
lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Added new "foomatic-ppd-to-xml" to generate
Foomatic XML files corresponding to a given PPD file.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Improved "normalizename()" function for
sorting printer, manufacturer, or driver lists.
2008-10-02 Till Kamppeter <[email protected]>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Changed method to find all printers
supported by a given driver, so that printer/driver relations
can also be defined by a <drivers> section in the printer entry.
2008-09-06 Dafydd Crosby <[email protected]>
* ppdtoxml: Can now add extra drivers to XML more easily.
2008-09-03 Tim Waugh <[email protected]>
* acinclude.m4: Fixed underquoted definitions.
