v1.3.2

Version 1.3.2

Features

• Counters for front panel ports (in eth_phy_intf.h)
• Most enums now have an externally defined << operator which converts their value to string form.
• Update fib.h to support reading the FIB (only supported in certain releases).
• Automatically detect the running process's name so users do not have to set AGENT_PROCESS_NAME when running their agent manually
• Introduction of a few new example libraries, including one for reading a TCP stream and one to handle server events on a file descriptor.

API Changes

• Breaking change: eos::sdk's get_name() method has been renamed to name()
• Convert more modules to our type generation system, so they can access the various hash(), to_string() and operator functions. The following modules have value classes defined in their eos/types/ file: aresolve.h, directflow.h, eth.h, and ip.h
• agent_option() now returns "" if no option is configured, instead of panic-ing
• The SDK's base exception, eos::error now inherits from std::exception
• Feature-specific exceptions have been moved to their corresponding module.
• nexthop groups now use a uint16_t instead of a uint8_t to denote the size.
• Add gre_key_type attribute to eos::nexthop_group_t for future releases
• Handle user-supplied command line arguments properly.

Bugs and Fixes

• Allow a nexthop-group IP route via to be replaced by a forward one
• Improved error messages
• Usability improvements to the build.sh script, including a --force flag to force rebuilding the stub library.
• SWIG updates to support gcc versions >= 4.6
• Various python usability updates (i.e. better error reasons, docstrings)
• Improved comments
• Internal tracing added on some modules to ease debugging
