34.14 34.341
4 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
5 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
6 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
7 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
8 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
9 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
10
114.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
12 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
13 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
14 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
15 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
16 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
17 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
18 backend.
19 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
20
214.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
22 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
23 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
24 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
25 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
26 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
27 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
28
294.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
30 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
31 illegal.
32 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
33 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
34 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
35 by Adam Rosenstein).
36 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
37 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
38 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
39
404.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
41 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
42 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
43 the socket type.
44 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
45
464.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
47 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
48 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
49 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
50 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
51 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
52 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
53
544.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
55 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
56 unless one has been installed already.
57 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
58 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
59 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
60 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
61 client would first wait for some data by the server and
62 otherwise hang. (reported and analyzed in an absolutely
63 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
64 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
65 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
66 (reported and analyzed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
67 Rosenstein).
68 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
69 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
70 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
71 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
72 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
73 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
74 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
75 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
76 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
77 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
78 now, more to come, though.
79 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
80
814.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
82 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
83 no trace events.
84 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
85 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
86 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
87 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
88 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
89 Time::HiRes).
90
914.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
92 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
93 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
94
954.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
96 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
97 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
98 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
99 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
100
1014.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
102 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
103 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
104 perls without resource leaks or worse).
105
1064.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
107 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
108 the callback.
109 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
110 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
111 eol marker.
112 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
113 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
114 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
115
1164.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
117 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
118 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
119 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
120 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
121 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
122
1234.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
124 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
125 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
126 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
127 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
128 unusable way.
129 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
130 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
131 K. Sharifulin).
132
1334.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
134 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
135 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
136 be delayed under some circumstances.
137 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
138 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
139 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
140 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
141 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
142 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
143
1444.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
145 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
146 assumption that all data could be written before read
147 (reported by Jim Razmus).
148
1494.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
150 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
151 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
152 implementation (also affected child watchers).
153 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
154
1554.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
156 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
157 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
158 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
159
1604.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
161 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
162 works.
163
1644.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
165 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
166 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
167 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
168 for AnyEvent::Handle.
169 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
170 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
171
1724.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
4 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting. 173 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
174 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
175 executing the guard block as warnings.
176 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
