4TODO: strict checks for file, and valid fd
54.341
6 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
7 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
8 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
9 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
10 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
11 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
12 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
13 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
14
154.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
16 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
17 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
18 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
19 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
20 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
21 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
22 backend.
23 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
24
254.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
26 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
27 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
28 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
29 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
30 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
31 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
32
334.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
34 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
35 illegal.
36 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
37 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
38 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
39 by Adam Rosenstein).
40 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
41 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
42 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
43
444.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
45 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
46 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
47 the socket type.
48 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
49
504.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
51 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
52 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
53 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
54 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
55 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
56 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
57
584.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
59 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
60 unless one has been installed already.
61 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
62 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
63 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
64 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
65 client would first wait for some data by the server and
66 otherwise hang. (reported and analyzed in an absolutely
67 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
68 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
69 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
70 (reported and analyzed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
71 Rosenstein).
72 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
73 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
74 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
75 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
76 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
77 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
78 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
79 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
80 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
81 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
82 now, more to come, though.
83 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
84
854.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
86 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
87 no trace events.
88 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
89 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
90 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
91 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
92 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
93 Time::HiRes).
94
954.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
96 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
97 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
98
994.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
100 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
101 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
102 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
103 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
104
1054.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
106 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
107 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
108 perls without resource leaks or worse).
109
1104.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
111 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
112 the callback.
113 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
114 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
115 eol marker.
116 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
117 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
118 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
119
1204.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
121 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
122 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
123 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
124 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
125 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
126
1274.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
128 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
129 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
130 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
131 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
132 unusable way.
133 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
134 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
135 K. Sharifulin).
136
1374.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
138 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
139 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
140 be delayed under some circumstances.
141 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
142 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
143 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
144 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
145 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
146 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
147
1484.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
149 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
150 assumption that all data could be written before read
151 (reported by Jim Razmus).
152
1534.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
154 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
155 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
156 implementation (also affected child watchers).
157 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
158
1594.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
160 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
161 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
162 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
163
1644.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
165 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
166 works.
