31 root 1.90 - further improve relative redirection code.
32     - comment out code that tried to detect possible bugs with persistent

34     working fine :)
35 root 1.89 - do not call on_body callback on a response that AE::HTTP will recurse
36     on internally (reported by Антон Онуфриев and Ruslan Zakirov).
37    
38 root 1.88 2.23 Sun Aug 28 11:30:33 CEST 2016
39     - relative redirects used the proxy schema instead of the request
40     url schema to generate the new url, which is wrong (analyzed by Felix

43    
44 root 1.86 2.22 Thu May 14 04:04:03 CEST 2015

55     - correctly keep body when redirecting POSTs, instead of
56     deleting them.
57    
58 root 1.80 2.2 Mon Jun 9 01:31:46 CEST 2014
59 root 1.79 - connection header was malformed (patch by Raphael Geissert).

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

79 root 1.72 2.12 Tue Jun 14 07:22:54 CEST 2011
80     - fix a possible 'Can't call method "destroyed"' error (which would
81     have been reported by Carl Chambers).
82    
83 root 1.71 2.11 Tue May 10 14:33:28 CEST 2011
84     - the keepalive session cache wouldn't take port and scheme into account
85     when reusing connection - potentially causing information leaks
86     (reported by Nick Kostirya).
87     - bump AnyEvent dependency version (reported by Richard Harris).
88    
89 root 1.69 2.1 Thu Feb 24 13:11:51 CET 2011
90     - the keepalive and persistent parameters were actually named
91     differently in the code - they now work as documented.
92     - fix a bug where callbacks would sometimes never be called when
93 root 1.70 the request timeout is near or below the persistent connection
94 root 1.69 timeout (testcase by Cindy Wang).
95     - destroying the guard would have no effect when a request was
96     recursing or being retired.
97    
98 root 1.68 2.04 Sat Feb 19 07:45:24 CET 2011
99     - "proxy => undef" now overrides any global proxy when specified.
100 root 1.66 - require scheme in urls, also use a stricter match to match urls,
101     leading or trailing garbage is no longer tolerated.
102 root 1.68 - EXPERIMENTAL: allow '=' in cookie values.
103 root 1.66
104 root 1.65 2.03 Tue Jan 18 18:49:35 CET 2011

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

140 root 1.45 - bugfix: after headers were received, if any error occured the wrong
141     (server-sent) Status and Reason fields would be passed to the callback.
142     - when an error occurs during transfer, preserve status/reason.
143 root 1.41 - add socks4a connect example.
144 root 1.40 - new "tcp_connect" parameter.
145 root 1.42 - new format_date and parse_date functions.

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

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

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

180 root 1.30 (requested by Mr Guest).
181     - allow proxy scheme to be missing, as documented
182     (reported by Mr Guest).

189    
190 root 1.28 1.4 Tue Jul 7 02:14:53 CEST 2009
191 root 1.25 - http_request would not instantly clear the connection slot on
192     tcp_connect failures, potentially leading to deadlocks.
193 root 1.28 - fix a bug where a connection error is wrongly reported
194     as EINPROGRESS.
195 root 1.26 - new parameters: on_header, on_body, want_body_handle.
196     - redirects will be followed when recurse is enabled whether or not
197     the body dowload was successful or not.
198 root 1.27 - include :port in Host header when given in the url (many sites break
199     when it's always there, and many break if it's missing...).
200 root 1.26 - pass the empty string, not undef, when there is no body but
201     no error occured.

212    
213 root 1.22 1.11 Fri Nov 21 09:18:11 CET 2008
214     - work around a perl core bug not properly refcounting function arguments,
215     causing "200 OK" with random body results (reported by Дмитрий Шалашов).
216    
217 root 1.21 1.1 Thu Oct 30 04:46:27 CET 2008
218 root 1.18 - work around different behaviour of AnyEvent::Handle in TLS mode.
219 root 1.17 - cleanup cookie implementation, many examples and comments were
220     provided by Дмитрий Шалашов.
221     - document the return values of http_* functions better.
222 root 1.19 - separate multiple header values by "," not "\x00" (this does not
223     break correctly written users of the old API).
224     - improve Set-Cookie: parsing.
225     - add experimental https-over-http-proxy support.
226     - downgrade https-over-https proxy to https-over-http.

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