It’s done! After several month of hard work we have a new release of libssh.
Version 0.3 has a lot of small and major changes. The API has been improved and
by this we had to break the API and ABI compability.
New functions:
channel_read_buffer, channel_get_exit_status, ssh_auth_list,
ssh_userauth_agent_pubkey, ssh_get_hexa, ssh_version
Changed functions:
channel_read, ssh_get_pubkey_hash, privatekey_free, try_publickey_from_file,
ssh_options_*
Please let us know if there is documentation unclear or missing. Please join
our mailing list or visit our irc channel. You can download libssh 0.3 here along with a NSIS installer for Windows. Packages for openSUSE and Fedora are available here.
