3 TODO: provide lwp_request function that takes an lwp http requets and returns a http response.
4 TODO: http://efl20.com/wp-register.php refresh-header, instead of location
5
6 TODO: maybe support broken Expires header?
7 TODO: download example
8 1.5
9 - bugfix: after headers were received, if any error occured the wrong
10 (server-sent) Status and Reason fields would be passed to the callback.
11 - when an error occurs during transfer, preserve status/reason.
12 - add socks4a connect example.
13 - new "tcp_connect" parameter.
14 - new format_date and parse_date functions.
15 - diagnose unexpected eof as such when the length is known.
16 - add 205 to the responses without body.
17
18 1.46 Mon Sep 6 08:29:34 CEST 2010
19 - some (broken) servers differentiate between empty search parts
20 and nonexistant search parts, work around this (problem
21 analyzed by Sergey Zasenko).
22 - possibly increase robustness by always setting an on_error
23 callback on the AnyEvent::Handle object (especially in case
24 of user errors, such as nehative timeouts).
25 - we now always follow 301/302/303 redirects and mutate POST to GET.
26 - we now always follow 307 redirects, even for POST.
27 - header-less responses are not parsed correctly (at a negative
28 speed penatly :).
29
30 1.45 Wed Jun 16 21:15:26 CEST 2010
31 - fix a bug where the handle would go away directly after a successful
32 connect (analyzed and patch by Maxim Dounin).
33 - due to popular demand, introduce the Redirect pseudo response header.
34 - document URL pseudo-header better.
35 - explain how to implement DNS caching.
36
37 1.44 Sat Dec 5 16:36:20 CET 2009
38 - do not generate content-length on get requests (if the body is empty),
39 as there are even more broken servers out there.
40 - allow set_proxy to clear the proxy again.
41 - set_proxy will now croak on invalid urls.
42 - support overriding the Host-header (requested by Tatsuhiko Miyagawa).
43
44 1.43 Fri Aug 14 17:02:02 CEST 2009
45 - provide on_prepare callback on common request.
46
47 1.42 Wed Aug 5 18:43:01 CEST 2009
48 - allow suppression of auto-supplied header fieds by specifying undef
49 (requested by Mr Guest).
50 - allow proxy scheme to be missing, as documented
51 (reported by Mr Guest).
52 - do not follow redirects if we do not have a location header
53 (requested by Mr Guest).
54
55 1.41 Sat Jul 25 03:27:05 CEST 2009
56 - correctly parse completely headerless responses (e.g. by gatling).
57 (analysed by Robin Redeker).
58
59 1.4 Tue Jul 7 02:14:53 CEST 2009
60 - http_request would not instantly clear the connection slot on
61 tcp_connect failures, potentially leading to deadlocks.
62 - fix a bug where a connection error is wrongly reported
63 as EINPROGRESS.
64 - new parameters: on_header, on_body, want_body_handle.
65 - redirects will be followed when recurse is enabled whether or not
66 the body dowload was successful or not.
67 - include :port in Host header when given in the url (many sites break
68 when it's always there, and many break if it's missing...).
69 - pass the empty string, not undef, when there is no body but
70 no error occured.
71 - allow passing of tls_ctx, predefine two https security profiles.
72 - ucfirst all error messages generated internally.
73 - include "U" token in User-Agent.
74 - document $AnyEvent::HTTP::MAX_PER_HOST.
75 - allow empty field names in response headers (microsoft hits. microsoft
76 hits. microsoft hits. you die).
77
78 1.12 Thu Jun 11 14:45:18 CEST 2009
79 - $scheme wasn't optional in the proxy specification (reported by
80 Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
81
82 1.11 Fri Nov 21 09:18:11 CET 2008
83 - work around a perl core bug not properly refcounting function arguments,
84 causing "200 OK" with random body results (reported by Дмитрий Шалашов).
85
86 1.1 Thu Oct 30 04:46:27 CET 2008
87 - work around different behaviour of AnyEvent::Handle in TLS mode.
88 - cleanup cookie implementation, many examples and comments were
89 provided by Дмитрий Шалашов.
90 - document the return values of http_* functions better.
91 - separate multiple header values by "," not "\x00" (this does not
92 break correctly written users of the old API).
93 - improve Set-Cookie: parsing.
94 - add experimental https-over-http-proxy support.
95 - downgrade https-over-https proxy to https-over-http.
96 - ignore spurious CR characters in headers, they show up
97 in the weirdest of places.
98 - ucfirst the request headers, for a slightly less weird look.
99 - work around (some) memleaks in perl regarding qr.
100
101 1.05 Mon Sep 29 15:49:58 CEST 2008
102 - fix a regex when parsing cookie domains
103 (patch by Дмитрий Шалашов).
104
105 1.04 Thu Jul 24 08:00:46 CEST 2008
106 - parse reason-less http status responses.
107 - parse more forms of broken location headers.
108
109 1.03 Thu Jul 3 03:47:58 CEST 2008
110 - fix http_post, which was totally broken (patch by Pedro Melo).
111 - do not recurse on POST requests, as per HTTP/1.[01] (this might
112 change as the recommendation isn't followed by anybody else).
113 - implement preliminary support for 303/307 redirects.
114
115 1.02 Thu Jun 12 13:50:08 CEST 2008
