20 root 1.92 2.24 Thu Aug 30 03:23:03 CEST 2018
21 root 1.91 - bring cookie management more in line with RFC 6265; implement idn
22     matching for cookie domains.
23     - update cookie_jar version to 2, invalidate existing cookie jars.
24     - preserve original cookie domain attribute.
25     - also expire old cookie jars in cookie parser, just in case.
26 root 1.90 - further improve relative redirection code.
27     - comment out code that tried to detect possible bugs with persistent
28     connection caching, but since it never triggered, it's probably
29     working fine :)
30 root 1.89 - do not call on_body callback on a response that AE::HTTP will recurse
31     on internally (reported by Антон Онуфриев and Ruslan Zakirov).
32    
33 root 1.88 2.23 Sun Aug 28 11:30:33 CEST 2016
34     - relative redirects used the proxy schema instead of the request
35     url schema to generate the new url, which is wrong (analyzed by Felix
36     Ostmann).
37     - fix download example (reported by Felix Ostmann).
38    
39 root 1.86 2.22 Thu May 14 04:04:03 CEST 2015

47     - added t/02_ip_literals.t.
48 root 1.83
49 root 1.81 2.21 Mon Jun 9 01:35:54 CEST 2014
50     - correctly keep body when redirecting POSTs, instead of
51     deleting them.
52    
53 root 1.80 2.2 Mon Jun 9 01:31:46 CEST 2014
54 root 1.79 - connection header was malformed (patch by Raphael Geissert).
55 root 1.77 - add lots of known idempotent methods from httpbis.
56 root 1.80 - implement relative location headers (rfc 7231), with fallback on URI.

59 root 1.77
60 root 1.76 2.15 Wed Nov 14 23:22:07 CET 2012
61     - use the recurse parameter to also limit the number of retries to be
62     done, avodiing endless loops with broken servers, as reported
63     by Carl Chambers.
64 root 1.74
65 root 1.75 2.14 Sun Apr 22 14:57:51 CEST 2012

68    
69 root 1.74 2.13 Wed Jul 27 17:53:58 CEST 2011
70 root 1.73 - garbled chunked responses caused AnyEvent::HTTP to malfunction

74 root 1.72 2.12 Tue Jun 14 07:22:54 CEST 2011
75     - fix a possible 'Can't call method "destroyed"' error (which would
76     have been reported by Carl Chambers).
77    
78 root 1.71 2.11 Tue May 10 14:33:28 CEST 2011
79     - the keepalive session cache wouldn't take port and scheme into account
80     when reusing connection - potentially causing information leaks
81     (reported by Nick Kostirya).
82     - bump AnyEvent dependency version (reported by Richard Harris).
83    
84 root 1.69 2.1 Thu Feb 24 13:11:51 CET 2011
85     - the keepalive and persistent parameters were actually named
86     differently in the code - they now work as documented.
87     - fix a bug where callbacks would sometimes never be called when
88 root 1.70 the request timeout is near or below the persistent connection
89 root 1.69 timeout (testcase by Cindy Wang).
90     - destroying the guard would have no effect when a request was
91     recursing or being retired.
92    
93 root 1.68 2.04 Sat Feb 19 07:45:24 CET 2011
94     - "proxy => undef" now overrides any global proxy when specified.
95 root 1.66 - require scheme in urls, also use a stricter match to match urls,

108 root 1.62
109 root 1.59 2.0 Tue Jan 4 09:16:56 CET 2011
110 root 1.48 - hopefully fully upgraded to HTTP/1.1.
111 root 1.59 - support HTTP/1.1 persistent and HTTP/1.0 keep-alive connections.
112     - drop https-proxy-connection support. seems unused and ill-specified.
113 root 1.60 - use more differentiated 59x status codes.
114     - properly use url (not proxy) hostname to verify server certificate.
115 root 1.48 - much improved cookie implementation:
116 root 1.53 - properly implement cookie expiry (for new cookies).
117     - new function to expire cookies and sessions: cookie_jar_expire.
118 root 1.48 - add special exception to parse broken expires= keys in
119     set-cookie headers.
120 root 1.49 - do not quote cookie values when not strictly necessary, to
121     improve compatibility with broken servers.
122 root 1.50 - accept and send lots of invalid cookie values exactly as
123     they were received - this should not impact valid values.
124 root 1.48 - lowercase cookie parameter names for improved compatibility.
125 root 1.60 - support the max-age cookie parameter, overrides expires.
126 root 1.53 - support cookie dates (and a few others) in parse_date.

135 root 1.45 - bugfix: after headers were received, if any error occured the wrong
136     (server-sent) Status and Reason fields would be passed to the callback.
137     - when an error occurs during transfer, preserve status/reason.
138 root 1.41 - add socks4a connect example.

143 root 1.37
144 root 1.39 1.46 Mon Sep 6 08:29:34 CEST 2010
145 root 1.38 - some (broken) servers differentiate between empty search parts
146     and nonexistant search parts, work around this (problem
147     analyzed by Sergey Zasenko).
148     - possibly increase robustness by always setting an on_error
149 root 1.39 callback on the AnyEvent::Handle object (especially in case
150     of user errors, such as nehative timeouts).
151     - we now always follow 301/302/303 redirects and mutate POST to GET.
152     - we now always follow 307 redirects, even for POST.
153     - header-less responses are not parsed correctly (at a negative
154     speed penatly :).

156 root 1.37 1.45 Wed Jun 16 21:15:26 CEST 2010
157 root 1.38 - fix a bug where the handle would go away directly after a successful

162 root 1.30
163 root 1.35 1.44 Sat Dec 5 16:36:20 CET 2009
164     - do not generate content-length on get requests (if the body is empty),
165     as there are even more broken servers out there.
166 root 1.34 - allow set_proxy to clear the proxy again.
167     - set_proxy will now croak on invalid urls.
168 root 1.35 - support overriding the Host-header (requested by Tatsuhiko Miyagawa).

175 root 1.30 (requested by Mr Guest).
176     - allow proxy scheme to be missing, as documented
177     (reported by Mr Guest).

184    
185 root 1.28 1.4 Tue Jul 7 02:14:53 CEST 2009
186 root 1.25 - http_request would not instantly clear the connection slot on
187     tcp_connect failures, potentially leading to deadlocks.

189     as EINPROGRESS.
190 root 1.26 - new parameters: on_header, on_body, want_body_handle.
191     - redirects will be followed when recurse is enabled whether or not
192     the body dowload was successful or not.
193 root 1.27 - include :port in Host header when given in the url (many sites break
194     when it's always there, and many break if it's missing...).
195 root 1.26 - pass the empty string, not undef, when there is no body but
196     no error occured.

209     - work around a perl core bug not properly refcounting function arguments,
210     causing "200 OK" with random body results (reported by Дмитрий Шалашов).
211    
212 root 1.21 1.1 Thu Oct 30 04:46:27 CET 2008
213 root 1.18 - work around different behaviour of AnyEvent::Handle in TLS mode.
214 root 1.17 - cleanup cookie implementation, many examples and comments were
215     provided by Дмитрий Шалашов.
216     - document the return values of http_* functions better.
217 root 1.19 - separate multiple header values by "," not "\x00" (this does not
218     break correctly written users of the old API).
219     - improve Set-Cookie: parsing.
220     - add experimental https-over-http-proxy support.
221     - downgrade https-over-https proxy to https-over-http.

234    
235 root 1.13 1.03 Thu Jul 3 03:47:58 CEST 2008
236 root 1.10 - fix http_post, which was totally broken (patch by Pedro Melo).
237 root 1.13 - do not recurse on POST requests, as per HTTP/1.[01] (this might
238     change as the recommendation isn't followed by anybody else).
239     - implement preliminary support for 303/307 redirects.
240 root 1.10
