3TODO: some time-outs in AnyEvent::Handle... 34.41 Wed May 13 14:41:29 CEST 2009
4 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
5 for cosmetic reasons.
6 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
7 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
8
94.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
10 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
11 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
12 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
13 - sped up Tk timer handling.
14 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
15 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
16 - fix Qt timers without interval.
17 - avoid Qt zero-timeout specialcase, in old libqt's.
18
194.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
20 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
21 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
22 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
23
244.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
25 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
26 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
27 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
28 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
29
304.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
31 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
32 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
33 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
34 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
35 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
36 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
37 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
38 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
39 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
40 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
41 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
42
434.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
44 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
45 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
46 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
47 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
48 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
49 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
50 backend.
51 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
52
534.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
54 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
55 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
56 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
57 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
58 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
59 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
60
614.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
62 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
63 illegal.
64 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
65 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
66 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
67 by Adam Rosenstein).
68 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
69 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
70 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
71
724.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
73 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
74 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
75 the socket type.
76 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
77
784.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
79 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
80 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
81 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
82 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
83 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
84 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
85
864.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
87 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
88 unless one has been installed already.
89 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
90 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
91 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
92 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
93 client would first wait for some data by the server and
94 otherwise hang. (reported and analyzed in an absolutely
95 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
96 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
97 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
98 (reported and analyzed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
99 Rosenstein).
100 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
101 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
102 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
103 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
104 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
105 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
106 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
107 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
108 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
109 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
110 now, more to come, though.
111 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
112
1134.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
114 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
115 no trace events.
116 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
117 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
118 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
119 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
120 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
121 Time::HiRes).
122
1234.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
124 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
125 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
126
1274.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
128 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
129 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
130 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
131 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
132
1334.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
134 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
135 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
136 perls without resource leaks or worse).
137
1384.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
139 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
140 the callback.
141 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
142 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
143 eol marker.
144 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
145 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
146 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
147
1484.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
149 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
150 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
151 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
152 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
153 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
154
1554.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
156 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
157 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
158 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
159 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
160 unusable way.
161 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
162 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
163 K. Sharifulin).
164
1654.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
166 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
167 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
168 be delayed under some circumstances.
169 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
170 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
171 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
172 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
173 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
174 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
175
1764.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
177 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
178 assumption that all data could be written before read
179 (reported by Jim Razmus).
180
1814.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
182 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
183 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
184 implementation (also affected child watchers).
185 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
186
1874.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
188 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
189 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
190 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
191
1924.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
193 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
194 works.
195
1964.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
197 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
198 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
199 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
200 for AnyEvent::Handle.
201 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
202 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
203
2044.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
205 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
206 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
207 executing the guard block as warnings.
208 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
209
2104.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
211 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
212 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
213 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
214 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
215 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
216 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
217 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
218 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
219 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
220 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
221 enter an endless loop.
222 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
223 busy again after idling.
224 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
225 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
226 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
227 (hopefully).
228 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
229 away any time.
230
2314.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
232 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
233 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
234 - allow more options in on_error.
235
2364.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008
237 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace ptr by real PTR lookup, provide
238 reverse_lookup and reverse_verify to replace it, support
239 v4mapped and v4compat addresses.
240 - provide more documentation for the resolver class.
241 - really replace longest run of :0: by :: in format_address,
242 also properly convert :: and ::1 again.
243 - support NAPTR record name and decode it.
244 - implement random weight sampling for SRV records, as per
245 rfc 2782.
246 - correctly abort on srv-record targets of ".".
247 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot.
248 - in the unlikely event of a virtual circuit connection
249 being invalidated by a delayed udp reply, AnyEvent::DNS
250 could die. this has been fixed.
251 - plug a probable memleak in the DNS vc code.
252 - use configured timeout also for VC request phase.
253 - implement timeout and max_outstanding methods
254 for resolver class.
255 - update version numbers in all modules.
