It took a lot of time to get this version stable and out. We have rewritten huge parts of the libssh internals to be able to be completely async in future. The whole network design passed from synchronous calls to an event-based asynchronous system. We also welcomed Milo as a new developer in our team. He is working on the server support and ssh_pki, which will provide a complete API to manipulate SSH keys. We also have to thank Oliver Stöneberg who tested 0.5 over the last months and sent a big amount of patches, and Eric Bischoff who authored many pages of the tutorial.

ChangeLog:

  • Added ssh_ prefix to all public functions.

We will show you some ways how to do that depending on your hardware access and knowledge.

Users:

As a user you can report bugs to our bugtracking system at http://red.libssh.org/. Another way could be to package libssh for you distribution.

Application Developer:

As above you can report bugs. If you have an exotic platform and you’re not sure if libssh is supported on this platform you can take a look at our dashboard. If you can’t find your platform in the dashboard this doesn’t mean that libssh doesn’t work on it, it is just not actively supported.

If you want support for your platform there are two possibilities:

  1. You report bugs and create patches and check regluarly if it still works on your platform.
  2. You can provide a Nightly Build for libssh.

How does this work:

You need a machine with the following packages installed: cmake, cmockery, git, openssl, zlib
Grab the ctest instructions from: http://git.libssh.org/projects/libssh.git/tree/tests/ctest-default.cmake
Edit the file and change:

CTEST_DIRECTORY: The directory to use to do the git checkout and build
CTEST_SITE: Your hostname –fqdn
CTEST_BUILD_NAME: The build name e.g. Fedora_13-GCC_4.5-x86_64-default
CTEST_CMAKE_GENERATOR: The generator e.g. Unix Makefiles (see man ctest)
CTEST_MODEL: Which should be Nightly

Then run ctest with: ctest -S path/to/cmake-default.cmake

Contributor:

You can start to be an active contributor to libssh. Register at the mailing list and take a look in our bugtracker what needs to be done or fixed :)

Currently there is a Linux machine with builds libssh with different configurations and compilers. We have FreeBSD machine too. You find see the results on:

test.libssh.org

Windows builds will follow in the next weeks as soon as we have the licenses. The plan is that this Windows machine will provide libssh binaries for stable releases and the development tree.

For static source code analysis we use scan-build. The results can be found here. They are updated every night.
