fix GET => HEAD in one case in the documentation (James Bromberger). + +2.12 Tue Jun 14 07:22:54 CEST 2011 + - fix a possible 'Can't call method "destroyed"' error (which would + have been reported by Carl Chambers). + +2.11 Tue May 10 14:33:28 CEST 2011 + - the keepalive session cache wouldn't take port and scheme into account + when reusing connection - potentially causing information leaks + (reported by Nick Kostirya). + - bump AnyEvent dependency version (reported by Richard Harris). + +2.1 Thu Feb 24 13:11:51 CET 2011 + - the keepalive and persistent parameters were actually named + differently in the code - they now work as documented. + - fix a bug where callbacks would sometimes never be called when + the request timeout is near or below the persistent connection + timeout (testcase by Cindy Wang). + - destroying the guard would have no effect when a request was + recursing or being retired. + +2.04 Sat Feb 19 07:45:24 CET 2011 + - "proxy => undef" now overrides any global proxy when specified. + - require scheme in urls, also use a stricter match to match urls, + leading or trailing garbage is no longer tolerated. + - EXPERIMENTAL: allow '=' in cookie values. + +2.03 Tue Jan 18 18:49:35 CET 2011 + -

add a resume download example. + +2.0 Tue Jan 4 09:16:56 CET 2011 + - hopefully fully upgraded to HTTP/1.1. + - support HTTP/1.1 persistent and HTTP/1.0 keep-alive connections. + - drop https-proxy-connection support. seems unused and ill-specified. + - use more differentiated 59x status codes. + - properly use url (not proxy) hostname to verify server certificate. + - much improved cookie implementation: + - properly implement cookie expiry (for new cookies). + - new function to expire cookies and sessions: cookie_jar_expire. + - add special exception to parse broken expires= keys in + set-cookie headers. + - do not quote cookie values when not strictly necessary, to + improve compatibility with broken servers. + - accept and send lots of invalid cookie values exactly as + they were received - this should not impact valid values. + - lowercase cookie parameter names for improved compatibility. + - support the max-age cookie parameter, overrides expires. + - support cookie dates (and a few others) in parse_date. + - properly support value-less parameters (e.g. secure, httponly). + - do not send Host: header in a proxy CONNECT request. + - use common::sense. + - lowercase hostnames and schemes. + - ignore leading zeroes in http version. + - handle spaces in content-length headers more gracefully. + +1.5 Fri Dec 31 04:47:08 CET 2010 + - bugfix: after headers were received, if any error occured the wrong + (server-sent) Status and Reason fields would be passed to the callback. + - when an error occurs during transfer, preserve status/reason. + - add socks4a connect example. + - new "tcp_connect" parameter. + - new format_date and parse_date functions. + - diagnose unexpected eof as such when the length is known. + - add 205 to the responses without body. + +1.46 Mon Sep 6 08:29:34 CEST 2010 + - some (broken) servers differentiate between empty search parts + and nonexistant search parts, work around this (problem + analyzed by Sergey Zasenko). + - possibly increase robustness by always setting an on_error + callback on the AnyEvent::Handle object (especially in case + of user errors, such as nehative timeouts). + - we now always follow 301/302/303 redirects and mutate POST to GET. + - we now always follow 307 redirects, even for POST. + - header-less responses are not parsed correctly (at a negative + speed penatly :). + +1.45 Wed Jun 16 21:15:26 CEST 2010 + - fix a bug where the handle would go away directly after a successful + connect (analyzed and patch by Maxim Dounin). + - due to popular demand, introduce the Redirect pseudo response header. + - document URL pseudo-header better. + - explain how to implement DNS caching. + +1.44 Sat Dec 5 16:36:20 CET 2009 + - do not generate content-length on get requests (if the body is empty), + as there are even more broken servers out there. + - allow set_proxy to clear the proxy again. + - set_proxy will now croak on invalid urls. + - support overriding the Host-header (requested by Tatsuhiko Miyagawa). + +1.43 Fri Aug 14 17:02:02 CEST 2009 + - provide on_prepare callback on common request. + +1.42 Wed Aug 5 18:43:01 CEST 2009 + - allow suppression of auto-supplied header fields by specifying undef + (requested by Mr Guest). + - allow proxy scheme to be missing, as documented + (reported by Mr Guest). + -

http_request would not instantly clear the connection slot on + tcp_connect failures, potentially leading to deadlocks. + - fix a bug where a connection error is wrongly reported + as EINPROGRESS. + - new parameters: on_header, on_body, want_body_handle. + - redirects will be followed when recurse is enabled whether or not + the body dowload was successful or not. + - include :port in Host header when given in the url (many sites break + when it's always there, and many break if it's missing...). + - pass the empty string, not undef, when there is no body but + no error occured. + - allow passing of tls_ctx, predefine two https security profiles. + - ucfirst all error messages generated internally. + - include "U" token in User-Agent. + - document $AnyEvent::HTTP::MAX_PER_HOST. + - allow empty field names in response headers (microsoft hits. microsoft + hits. microsoft hits. you die). + +1.12 Thu Jun 11 14:45:18 CEST 2009 + - $scheme wasn't optional in the proxy specification (reported by + Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann). 1.11 Fri Nov 21 09:18:11 CET 2008 - work around a perl core bug not properly refcounting function arguments,
