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

39     on internally (reported by Антон Онуфриев and Ruslan Zakirov).
40    
41 root 1.88 2.23 Sun Aug 28 11:30:33 CEST 2016
42     - relative redirects used the proxy schema instead of the request
43     url schema to generate the new url, which is wrong (analyzed by Felix
44     Ostmann).

46

58     - correctly keep body when redirecting POSTs, instead of
59     deleting them.
60

62 root 1.79 - connection header was malformed (patch by Raphael Geissert).
63 root 1.77 - add lots of known idempotent methods from httpbis.
64 root 1.80 - implement relative location headers (rfc 7231), with fallback on URI.

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

82 root 1.72 2.12 Tue Jun 14 07:22:54 CEST 2011
83     - fix a possible 'Can't call method "destroyed"' error (which would
84     have been reported by Carl Chambers).
85    
86 root 1.71 2.11 Tue May 10 14:33:28 CEST 2011
87     - the keepalive session cache wouldn't take port and scheme into account
88     when reusing connection - potentially causing information leaks
89     (reported by Nick Kostirya).
90     - bump AnyEvent dependency version (reported by Richard Harris).
91    
92 root 1.69 2.1 Thu Feb 24 13:11:51 CET 2011
93     - the keepalive and persistent parameters were actually named
94     differently in the code - they now work as documented.

96 root 1.70 the request timeout is near or below the persistent connection
97 root 1.69 timeout (testcase by Cindy Wang).
98     - destroying the guard would have no effect when a request was
99     recursing or being retired.
100    
101 root 1.68 2.04 Sat Feb 19 07:45:24 CET 2011
102     - "proxy => undef" now overrides any global proxy when specified.
103 root 1.66 - require scheme in urls, also use a stricter match to match urls,

106 root 1.66
107 root 1.65 2.03 Tue Jan 18 18:49:35 CET 2011

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

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

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

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

183 root 1.30 (requested by Mr Guest).
184     - allow proxy scheme to be missing, as documented
185     (reported by Mr Guest).

190     - correctly parse completely headerless responses (e.g. by gatling).

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

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

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