2.01 Tue Jan 11 07:38:15 CET 2011 |
6 |
- add missing dependency on common::sense. |
7 |
- add a resume download example. |

|

2.0 Tue Jan 4 09:16:56 CET 2011 |
10 |
- hopefully fully upgraded to HTTP/1.1. |
11 |
- support HTTP/1.1 persistent and HTTP/1.0 keep-alive connections. |
12 |
- drop https-proxy-connection support. seems unused and ill-specified. |
13 |
- use more differentiated 59x status codes. |
14 |
- properly use url (not proxy) hostname to verify server certificate. |
15 |
- much improved cookie implementation: |
16 |
- properly implement cookie expiry (for new cookies). |
17 |
- new function to expire cookies and sessions: cookie_jar_expire. |
18 |
- add special exception to parse broken expires= keys in |
19 |
set-cookie headers. |
20 |
- do not quote cookie values when not strictly necessary, to |
21 |
improve compatibility with broken servers. |
22 |
- accept and send lots of invalid cookie values exactly as |
23 |
they were received - this should not impact valid values. |
24 |
- lowercase cookie parameter names for improved compatibility. |
25 |
- support the max-age cookie parameter, overrides expires. |
26 |
- support cookie dates (and a few others) in parse_date. |
27 |
- properly support value-less parameters (e.g. secure, httponly). |
28 |
- do not send Host: header in a proxy CONNECT request. |
29 |
- use common::sense. |
30 |
- lowercase hostnames and schemes. |
31 |
- ignore leading zeroes in http version. |
32 |
- handle spaces in content-length headers more gracefully. |
33 |
|
34 |
1.5 Fri Dec 31 04:47:08 CET 2010 |
35 |
- bugfix: after headers were received, if any error occured the wrong |
36 |
(server-sent) Status and Reason fields would be passed to the callback. |
37 |
- when an error occurs during transfer, preserve status/reason. |
38 |
- add socks4a connect example. |
39 |
- new "tcp_connect" parameter. |
40 |
- new format_date and parse_date functions. |
41 |
- diagnose unexpected eof as such when the length is known. |
42 |
- add 205 to the responses without body. |
43 |
|
44 |
1.46 Mon Sep 6 08:29:34 CEST 2010 |
45 |
- some (broken) servers differentiate between empty search parts |
46 |
and nonexistant search parts, work around this (problem |
47 |
analyzed by Sergey Zasenko). |
48 |
- possibly increase robustness by always setting an on_error |
49 |
callback on the AnyEvent::Handle object (especially in case |
50 |
of user errors, such as nehative timeouts). |
51 |
- we now always follow 301/302/303 redirects and mutate POST to GET. |
52 |
- we now always follow 307 redirects, even for POST. |
53 |
- header-less responses are not parsed correctly (at a negative |
54 |
speed penatly :). |
55 |
|
56 |
1.45 Wed Jun 16 21:15:26 CEST 2010 |
57 |
- fix a bug where the handle would go away directly after a successful |
58 |
connect (analyzed and patch by Maxim Dounin). |
59 |
- due to popular demand, introduce the Redirect pseudo response header. |
60 |
- document URL pseudo-header better. |
61 |
- explain how to implement DNS caching. |
62 |
|
63 |
1.44 Sat Dec 5 16:36:20 CET 2009 |
64 |
- do not generate content-length on get requests (if the body is empty), |
65 |
as there are even more broken servers out there. |
66 |
- allow set_proxy to clear the proxy again. |
67 |
- set_proxy will now croak on invalid urls. |
68 |
- support overriding the Host-header (requested by Tatsuhiko Miyagawa). |
69 |
|
70 |
1.43 Fri Aug 14 17:02:02 CEST 2009 |
71 |
- provide on_prepare callback on common request. |
72 |
|
73 |
1.42 Wed Aug 5 18:43:01 CEST 2009 |
74 |
- allow suppression of auto-supplied header fields by specifying undef |
75 |
(requested by Mr Guest). |
76 |
- allow proxy scheme to be missing, as documented |
77 |
(reported by Mr Guest). |
78 |
- do not follow redirects if we do not have a location header |
79 |
(requested by Mr Guest). |
80 |
|
81 |
1.41 Sat Jul 25 03:27:05 CEST 2009 |
82 |
- correctly parse completely headerless responses (e.g. by gatling). |
83 |
(analysed by Robin Redeker). |
84 |
|
85 |
1.4 Tue Jul 7 02:14:53 CEST 2009 |
86 |
- http_request would not instantly clear the connection slot on |
87 |
tcp_connect failures, potentially leading to deadlocks. |
88 |
- fix a bug where a connection error is wrongly reported |
89 |
as EINPROGRESS. |
90 |
- new parameters: on_header, on_body, want_body_handle. |
91 |
- redirects will be followed when recurse is enabled whether or not |
92 |
the body dowload was successful or not. |
93 |
- include :port in Host header when given in the url (many sites break |
94 |
when it's always there, and many break if it's missing...). |
95 |
- pass the empty string, not undef, when there is no body but |
96 |
no error occured. |
97 |
- allow passing of tls_ctx, predefine two https security profiles. |
98 |
- ucfirst all error messages generated internally. |
99 |
- include "U" token in User-Agent. |
100 |
- document $AnyEvent::HTTP::MAX_PER_HOST. |
101 |
- allow empty field names in response headers (microsoft hits. microsoft |
102 |
hits. microsoft hits. you die). |
103 |
|
104 |
1.12 Thu Jun 11 14:45:18 CEST 2009 |
105 |
- $scheme wasn't optional in the proxy specification (reported by |
106 |
Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann). |
107 |
|
108 |
1.11 Fri Nov 21 09:18:11 CET 2008 |
109 |
- work around a perl core bug not properly refcounting function arguments, |
110 |
causing "200 OK" with random body results (reported by Дмитрий Шалашов). |
111 |
|
112 |
1.1 Thu Oct 30 04:46:27 CET 2008 |
113 |
- work around different behaviour of AnyEvent::Handle in TLS mode. |
114 |
- cleanup cookie implementation, many examples and comments were |
115 |
provided by Дмитрий Шалашов. |
116 |
- document the return values of http_* functions better. |
117 |
- separate multiple header values by "," not "\x00" (this does not |
118 |
break correctly written users of the old API). |
119 |
- improve Set-Cookie: parsing. |
120 |
- add experimental https-over-http-proxy support. |
121 |
- downgrade https-over-https proxy to https-over-http. |
122 |
- ignore spurious CR characters in headers, they show up |
123 |
in the weirdest of places. |
124 |
- ucfirst the request headers, for a slightly less weird look. |
125 |
- work around (some) memleaks in perl regarding qr. |
126 |
|
127 |
1.05 Mon Sep 29 15:49:58 CEST 2008 |
128 |
- fix a regex when parsing cookie domains |
129 |
(patch by Дмитрий Шалашов). |
130 |
|
131 |
1.04 Thu Jul 24 08:00:46 CEST 2008 |
132 |
- parse reason-less http status responses. |
133 |
- parse more forms of broken location headers. |
134 |
|
135 |
1.03 Thu Jul 3 03:47:58 CEST 2008 |
136 |
- fix http_post, which was totally broken (patch by Pedro Melo). |
137 |
- do not recurse on POST requests, as per HTTP/1.[01] (this might |
138 |
change as the recommendation isn't followed by anybody else). |
139 |
- implement preliminary support for 303/307 redirects. |
140 |
|
141 |
1.02 Thu Jun 12 13:50:08 CEST 2008 |
142 |
- make the request URL available in the callback of http_request. |

144 |
|
145 |
