Changelog

0.6.0 (unreleased)

• client() now bounds each connect attempt at 10 seconds, the TLS handshake included, and reports one that expires as an ordinary connect failure, so reconnect retries it on its usual backoff. A connect previously waited the operating system out, around 130 s on Linux against a host that drops SYNs. connectTimeout retunes the bound, and connectTimeout: false restores the old wait.

• Addresses, ids and every other text field on the wire are read and written as latin1. A source_addr of Kaffeé previously reached the application as Kaffei, because the codec wrote the octet and then masked bit 7 reading it back; destination_addr, system_id, message_id, service_type and the C-Octet String TLVs were affected the same way. A character past U+00FF in one of those fields is now refused, where it used to go out as its low octet.

  Check what you stored before you roll this out. Values your application persisted under 0.5.0 were read with bit 7 masked, so an address or a message_id carrying an octet above 0x7F is spelled differently now: a stored id will not match the receipt it belongs to, and a stored address will not match the sender it came from. Ids most SMSCs issue are digits or hex and are unaffected.

• A U+0000 inside a C-Octet String — source_addr, message_id, system_id and the rest — is refused. An Octet String carries a NULL as before.
