2 2
3ZERO_RETURN - stoptls? 34.92
4 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
5 in AnyEvent::Handle.
6 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
7 settings.
8 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV is the backend.
9
104.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
11 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
12 already contains some TLS handshake.
13 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
14 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
15 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
16 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
17 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
18
194.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
20 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
21 a negative value, so avoid that.
22 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
23 after the condition is already signalled.
24 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
25 data.
26 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
27 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
28 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
29 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
30 any issues).
31 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
32 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
33 by name (not name or number).
34 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
35 only compiling signal code when necessary.
36 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
37 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
38 said future/alternative API.
39 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
40
414.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
42 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
43 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
44 (analyzed by elmex).
45
464.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
47 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
48 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
49 for errors after every push_write etc.
50 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
51 platforms.
52
534.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
54 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
55 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
56 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
57 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
58 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
59 tutorial accordingly.
60 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
61
624.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
63 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
64 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
65 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
66 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
67 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
68 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
69 in IO::Async.
70
714.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
72 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
73 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
74 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
75 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
76 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
77 documentation.
78 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
79 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
80 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
81 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
82 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
83 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
84
854.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
86 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
87 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
88 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
89 this trap.
90 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
91 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
92 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
93 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
94 on_read callbacks.
95 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
96
974.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
98 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
99 callbacks.
100 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
101 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
102 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
103 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
104 Event::Lib.
105 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
106 to rarely fail.
107
1084.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
109 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
110 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
111 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
112 in AnyEvent->io.
113 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
114 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
115 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
116 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
117 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
118 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
119 portable_socketpair.
120 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
121 YMMV.

4 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with 124 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
5 uppercase targets. 125 uppercase targets.
126 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
127 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
128 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
6 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context 129 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context

15 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method. 138 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.

147 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
