3 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace ptr by real PTR lookup, provide
4 reverse_lookup and reverse_verify to replace it, support
5 v4mapped and v4compat addresses.
6 - provide more documentation for the resolver class.
7 - really replace longest run of :0: by :: in format_address,
8 also properly convert :: and ::1 again.
9 - support NAPTR record name and decode it.
10 - implement random weight sampling for SRV records, as per
11 rfc 2782.
12 - correctly abort on srv-record targets of ".".
13 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot.
14
154.1 Thu May 29 05:45:40 CEST 2008
16 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed xxx_ip functions to xxx_address
17 which mirrors their purpose better (old names still available
18 for a while). Also moved AnyEvent::DNS::addr to
19 AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr.
20 - implement AnyEvent->time and AnyEvent->now.
21 - fix IPv6 support in pack_sockaddr.
22 - officially un-experimentalise all newly introduced code.
23 - support unix domain sockets everywhere by specifying
24 a host of "unix/" and the pathname as service.
25 - implement an activity timeout in AnyEvent::Handle.
26 - added a regex read type to AnyEvent::Handle.
27 - added a json read/write type to AnyEvent::Handle.
28 - always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle.
29 - document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
30 - implement AnyEvent::Util::fork_call.
31 - add support for IPv6 nameservers and nameserver statements.
32 - work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty
33 select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this
34 workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops,
35 but EV also works around this).
36 - supply AnyEvent::Socket::address_type and make good use of it.
37 - clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle
38 vs. callback arguments.
39 - add some recommends to the META.yml.

414.05 Mon May 26 19:44:06 CEST 2008
42 - some platforms ignore the rfc and prepend an extra sa_len member to
43 the sockaddr structure, cater for those. also use sockaddr_family,
44 didn't know it was there, but comes in handy for the workaround.
45 - undo the import WIN32 hack.
46
474.04 Mon May 26 08:03:31 CEST 2008
48 - try to work around yet another windows bug: failed connects are reported
49 as if it were out-of-band data. windows users: you suck. Only
50 EV, Glib, Event and the pure perl backend can handle this condition.
51 - optimize write algorithm in AnyEvent::Handle.
52 - properly parse PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS and use the info correctly.
53 - tcp_connect now properly iterates through all targets.
54 - check wether IPv6 sockets can actually be created, otherwise, disable ipv6
55 support entirely. also hardcode some AF_INET6 constants for the
56 sake of perl 5.8.
57 - vastly improved nameserver/suffix detection algorithm for windows
58 (still a hack...)
59 - try to use a fallback dns server if no dns servers could be found.
60 - splatter around some local $SIG{__DIE__}'s to work around bad
61 die handlers.
62
634.03 Sun May 25 05:05:57 CEST 2008
64 - work around perl bugs on windows, where perl returns undocumented
65 error codes for sysread, syswrite etc.
66 - fix AnyEvent::Handle::unshift_read to really unshift and not push.
67 - AnyEvent::Handle could sometimes stumble over 0-byte writes.
68 - fix unpack_sockaddr, now works for AF_INET6 sockaddr's.
69 - updated documentation.
70 - lots of workarounds for perl 5.8 quirks.
71 - implement a more flexible type system for both reads and writes
72 in AnyEvent::Handle.
73 - support IPv6 in tcp_server.
74 - pass local hostname and port to the prepare callback in tcp_server.
75 - make types extendable in AnyEvent::Handle.
76 - croak, not die, in AnyEvent::Handle;
77
784.0 Sat May 24 19:58:08 CEST 2008
79 - added (experimental) AnyEvent::DNS module.
80 - added (experimental) AnyEvent::Socket module.
81 - added (experiemntal) support for TLS/SSL in AnyEvent::Handle.
82 - make condvar->end call ->send as documented.
83 - make condvar constructor support the documented cb => argument.
84 - overload condvars so you can use them instead of code references.
85 - support more of the POSIX forms instead of a pure dotted quad for
86 verbatim ip addresses.
87 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton will use AnyEvent::DNS now and not fork anymore.
88 - try very hard not to freeze on broken windows perls.
89 - make on_eof optional in AnyEvent::Handle.
90 - support service names in tcp_connect and tcp_server.
91 - work around netbsd/openbsd bug causing unix sockets not to
92 become writable until empty.
93 - only make a dummy read for error detection when getpeername
94 returns ENOTCONN.
95 - defend AnyEvent::Util::inet_aton against Coro::LWP brutal
96 override.
97 - new AnyEvent::Guard::cancel.
98
993.5 Sat May 17 23:17:14 CEST 2008
100 - gracefully deal with systems not defining CLOCK_MONOTONIC
101 (as opposed to not supporting the clock itself, which worked in 3.41).
102 - added AnyEvent::Util::tcp_connect and AnyEvent::Util::tcp_server
103 helpers, to replace the ill-designed AnyEvent::Socket class.
104 - added some examples (eg/connect, eg/handle).
105 - added AnyEvent::Util::guard.
106 - AnyEvent::Util now exports most of its functions.
107 - fixed a bug in *_read_chunk, where the callback was called with $self as
108 first and second argument.
109 - simplified and fixed regex handling in AnyEvent::Handle::*_read_line.
110 - fix manpage condvars examples to use new syntax.
111 - considerably improve inet_aton with EV::ADNS backend to support
112 cname chains (common dns configuration bug, e.g. with www.google.de)
113 and aaaa records if no a record could be found.
114
1153.41 Sun May 11 19:53:13 CEST 2008
116 - work around a bug in perl 5.8.8's local. Reported by Yi Ma Mao.
