35.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
4 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
5 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
6 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
7 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
8 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
9
105.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
11 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
12 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
13 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
14 (analysed by elmex).
15
165.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
17 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
18 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
19 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
20 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
21 AnyEvent::Handle.
22 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
23 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
24 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
25 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
26
275.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
28 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
29 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
30 by Michael S. Fischer).
31 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
32 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
33 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
34 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
35 by default.
36 - fix some prototypes.
37 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
38 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
39
405.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
41 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
42 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
43 - port to broken win32 perls.
44
455.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
46 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
47 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
48 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
49 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
50 OSes as well).
51
525.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
53 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
54 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
55 to reduce dependency on JSON.
56
575.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
58 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
59 one (was broken since 4.91).
60 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
61 when retrying a tcp_connect.
62 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
63 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
64
655.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
66 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
67
685.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
69 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
70 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
71 in AnyEvent::Handle.
72 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
73 settings.
74 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
75 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
76 exporting the probe function).
77 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
78 code to work around it's watcher limits.
79 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
80 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
81 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
82 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
83 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
84
854.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
86 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
87 already contains some TLS handshake.
88 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
89 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
90 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
91 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
92 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
93
944.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
95 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
96 a negative value, so avoid that.
97 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
98 after the condition is already signalled.
99 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
100 data.
101 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
102 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
103 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
104 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
105 any issues).
106 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
107 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
108 by name (not name or number).
109 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
110 only compiling signal code when necessary.
111 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
112 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
113 said future/alternative API.
114 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
115
1164.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
117 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
118 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
119 (analysed by elmex).
120
1214.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
122 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
123 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
124 for errors after every push_write etc.
125 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
126 platforms.
127
1284.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
129 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
130 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
131 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
132 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
133 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
134 tutorial accordingly.
135 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
136
1374.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
138 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
139 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
140 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
141 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
142 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
143 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
144 in IO::Async.
145
1464.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
147 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
148 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
149 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
150 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
151 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
152 documentation.
153 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
154 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
155 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
156 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
157 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
158 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
159
1604.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
161 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
162 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
163 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
164 this trap.
165 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
166 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
167 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
168 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
169 on_read callbacks.
170 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
171
1724.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
173 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
174 callbacks.
175 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
176 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
177 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
178 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
179 Event::Lib.
180 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
181 to rarely fail.
182
1834.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
184 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
185 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
186 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
187 in AnyEvent->io.
188 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
189 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
190 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
191 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
192 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
193 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
194 portable_socketpair.
195 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
196 YMMV.
197
1984.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009
199 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
200 uppercase targets.
201 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
202 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
203 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
204 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
205 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
206 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
207 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
208 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
209 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
210 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
211 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
212 in the common case.
213 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
214 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
215 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
216 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
217 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
218 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
219 from the constructor.
220 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
221 then fall back to JSON.
222 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
223 and because it was documented that way.
224
2254.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
226 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
227 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
228
2294.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
230 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
231 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
232 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
233 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
234 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
235 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
236 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
237 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
238 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
239
2404.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
241 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
242 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
243 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
244 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
245 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
246
2474.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
248 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
249 and set it on the default resolver.
250 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
251 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
252 when running in tainted mode.
253 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
254
2554.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
256 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
257
2584.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
259 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
260 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
261 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
262 destructors.
263 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
264 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
265 implementation.
266 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
267 for cosmetic reasons.
268
2694.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
270 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
271 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
272 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
273 - sped up Tk timer handling.
274 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
275 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
276 - fix Qt timers without interval.
277 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.
278
2794.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
280 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
281 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
282 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
283
2844.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
285 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
286 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
287 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
288 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
289
2904.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
291 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
292 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
293 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
294 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
295 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
296 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
297 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
298 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
299 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
300 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
301 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
302
3034.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
304 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
305 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
306 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
307 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
308 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
309 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
310 backend.
311 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
312
3134.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
314 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
315 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
316 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
317 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
318 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
319 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
320
3214.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
322 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
323 illegal.
324 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
325 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
326 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
327 by Adam Rosenstein).
328 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
329 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
330 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
331
3324.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
333 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
334 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
335 the socket type.
336 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
337
3384.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
339 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
340 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
341 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
342 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
343 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
344 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
345
3464.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
347 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
348 unless one has been installed already.
349 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
350 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
351 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
352 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
353 client would first wait for some data by the server and
354 otherwise hang. (reported and analysed in an absolutely
355 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
356 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
357 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
358 (reported and analysed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
359 Rosenstein).
360 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
361 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
362 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
363 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
364 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
365 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
366 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
367 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
368 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
369 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
370 now, more to come, though.
371 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
372
3734.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
374 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
375 no trace events.
376 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
377 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
378 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
379 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
380 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
381 Time::HiRes).
382
3834.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
384 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
385 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
386
3874.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
388 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
389 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
390 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
391 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
392
3934.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
394 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
395 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
396 perls without resource leaks or worse).
397
3984.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
399 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
400 the callback.
401 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
402 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
403 eol marker.
404 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
405 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
406 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
407
4084.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
409 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
410 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
411 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
412 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
413 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
414
4154.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
416 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
417 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
418 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
419 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
420 unusable way.
421 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
422 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
423 K. Sharifulin).
424
4254.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
426 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
427 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
428 be delayed under some circumstances.
429 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
430 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
431 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
432 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
433 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
434 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
435
4364.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
437 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
438 assumption that all data could be written before read
439 (reported by Jim Razmus).
440
4414.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
442 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
443 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
444 implementation (also affected child watchers).
445 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
446
4474.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
448 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
449 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
450 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
451
4524.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
453 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
454 works.
455
4564.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
457 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
458 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
459 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
460 for AnyEvent::Handle.
461 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
462 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
463
4644.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
465 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
466 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
467 executing the guard block as warnings.
468 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
469
4704.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
471 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
472 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
473 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
474 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
475 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
476 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
477 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
478 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
479 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
480 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
481 enter an endless loop.
482 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
483 busy again after idling.
484 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
485 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
486 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
487 (hopefully).
488 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
489 away any time.
490
4914.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
492 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
493 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
494 - allow more options in on_error.
495
4964.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008
497 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace ptr by real PTR lookup, provide
498 reverse_lookup and reverse_verify to replace it, support
499 v4mapped and v4compat addresses.
500 - provide more documentation for the resolver class.
501 - really replace longest run of :0: by :: in format_address,
502 also properly convert :: and ::1 again.
503 - support NAPTR record name and decode it.
504 - implement random weight sampling for SRV records, as per
505 rfc 2782.
506 - correctly abort on srv-record targets of ".".
507 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot.
508 - in the unlikely event of a virtual circuit connection
509 being invalidated by a delayed udp reply, AnyEvent::DNS
510 could die. this has been fixed.
511 - plug a probable memleak in the DNS vc code.
512 - use configured timeout also for VC request phase.
513 - implement timeout and max_outstanding methods
514 for resolver class.
515 - update version numbers in all modules.
516
5174.1 Thu May 29 05:45:40 CEST 2008
518 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed xxx_ip functions to xxx_address
519 which mirrors their purpose better (old names still available
520 for a while). Also moved AnyEvent::DNS::addr to
521 AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr.
522 - implement AnyEvent->time and AnyEvent->now.
523 - fix IPv6 support in pack_sockaddr.
524 - officially un-experimentalise all newly introduced code.
525 - support unix domain sockets everywhere by specifying
526 a host of "unix/" and the pathname as service.
527 - implement an activity timeout in AnyEvent::Handle.
3 - added a a regex read type to AnyEvent::Handle. 528 - added a regex read type to AnyEvent::Handle.
529 - added a json read/write type to AnyEvent::Handle.
4 - always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle. 530 - always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle.
5 - document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle. 531 - document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
532 - implement AnyEvent::Util::fork_call.
533 - add support for IPv6 nameservers and nameserver statements.
534 - work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty
535 select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this
536 workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops,
537 but EV also works around this).
538 - supply AnyEvent::Socket::address_type and make good use of it.
539 - clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle
540 vs. callback arguments.
541 - add some recommends to the META.yml.
