4 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
5 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
6 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
7 destructors.
8 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
9 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
10 implementation.
11 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
12 for cosmetic reasons.
13
144.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
15 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
16 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
17 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
18 - sped up Tk timer handling.
19 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
20 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
21 - fix Qt timers without interval.
22 - avoid Qt zero-timeout specialcase, in old libqt's.
23
244.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
25 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
26 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
27 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
28
294.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
30 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
31 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
32 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
33 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
34
354.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
36 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
37 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
38 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
39 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
40 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
41 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
42 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
43 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
44 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
45 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
46 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
47
484.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
49 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
50 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
51 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
52 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
53 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
54 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
55 backend.
56 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
57
584.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
59 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
60 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
61 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
62 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
63 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
64 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
65
664.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
67 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
68 illegal.
69 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
70 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
71 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
72 by Adam Rosenstein).
73 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
74 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
75 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
76
774.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
78 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
79 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
80 the socket type.
81 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
82
834.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
84 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
85 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
86 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
87 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
88 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
89 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.

914.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
92 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
93 unless one has been installed already.
94 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
95 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
96 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
97 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
98 client would first wait for some data by the server and
99 otherwise hang. (reported and analyzed in an absolutely
100 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
101 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
102 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
103 (reported and analyzed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
104 Rosenstein).
105 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
106 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
107 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
108 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
109 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
110 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
111 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
112 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
113 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
114 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
115 now, more to come, though.
116 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
117
1184.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
119 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
120 no trace events.
121 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
122 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
123 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
3 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not 124 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
4 provide sub-second accuracy (all supported perl versions have 125 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
5 Time::HiRes). 126 Time::HiRes).

8 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang. 129 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
9 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments. 130 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
