34.3 3TODO: document TCP_*** constants
4TODO: catch AE::xxx for anyevent strict and anyevent debug
5TODO: anyevent::trace? or debug tracing all watchers?
6TODO: anyevent strict checking for $_ changes?
7
8 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::DNS resource records now include
9 the TTL as fourth element - this affects ->resolve directly,
10 and ->request and ->dns_unpack indirectly. Convenience functions
11 such as AnyEvent::DNS::{a,txt,mx,srv} are not affected.
12 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: backend authors now should not implement
13 one_event or loop, but instead the AnyEvent::CondVar::_wait and _poll
14 methods.
15 - DEPRECIATION: please change
16 "use AnyEvent::Impl::Perl" to "use AnyEvent::Loop" and
17 "AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop" to "AnyEvent::Loop::run"
18 in your programs, for future compatibility.
19 - split the pure perl backend into a loop module and an impl
20 module (AnyEvent::Loop and AnyEvent::Impl::Perl).
21 - some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could
22 errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own
23 (reported by Mohammad Toossi).
24 - add more workarounds around child watcher bugs in IO::Async
25 and (newly introduced) in POE.
26 - use glib child watchers and try to work around its limitations,
27 if possible (based on a patch by Kevin Ryde).
28 - add support for (currently third-party) AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK.
29 - many read types in AnyEvent::Handle would malfunction during
30 transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}".
31 (reported by Gerald Galster).
32 - resolve AnyEvent::Util::guard at first-use-time, not at load time,
33 for further speed and memory savings when not used.
34 - improve condvar blocking wait performance (probably only noticable
35 with faster backends), also make it easier for event loops that
36 do not support blocking waits.
37
385.34 Thu May 12 09:59:41 CEST 2011
39 - AE::TLS didn't support both cert_file and key at the same time,
40 due to some copy&paste bug (reported and analyzed by vti).
41 - improve AE::Handle timeout documentation slightly.
42
435.33 Mon Feb 7 21:51:41 CET 2011
44 - never appeared on CPAN, for unknown reasons.
45 - AnyEvent::Handle on_connect_error - do not try to destroy a handle
46 object when it's already gone (analyzed by Ryan Bullock).
47 - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0.
48 - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve,
49 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
50 - remove leading dots in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to remove,
51 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
52 - fixed a bug in idn ignored character processing.
53 - passes the uts46 6.0.0 testsuite except for three cases which
54 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
55 - passes the uts46 6.0.1 testsuite except for eleven cases which
56 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
57
585.31 Sun Jan 23 11:49:19 CET 2011
59 - work around a POE bug where POE would first poll for new events and
60 invoke handlers BEFORE handling the message queue.
61 - fix parsing of "domain" statement in resolv.conf (Johannes Plunien).
62 - stop_read now does just that in TLS mode. see its
63 documentation for caveats.
64 - update to common::sense 3.4 warning set (some warnings in perl impose
65 an arbitrary 32kb limit on regex matches, which affects
66 AnyEvent::Handle).
67 - AE::Handle had a broken rbuf_max method and missing wbuf_max method.
68 - new experimental AE::Handle::resettls method.
69
705.3 Fri Dec 31 05:48:13 CET 2010
71 - major IOAsync patch by Paul Evans - 0.33 is required, as the major
72 issues with IO::Async have been solved in that version, including
73 the availabilty of a default loop!
74 - implement new wbuf_max parameter for AnyEvent::Handle.
75 - added Cocoa::EventLoop backend by Daisuke Murase.
76 - the default testsuite now honors PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL (Paul Evans).
77 - clarify handle on_prepare documentation.
78 - set CLOEXEC flag on parent-side fd's in AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd,
79 to avoid leaking them to any child processes.
80 - try to force files into the arch-dependend lib directory, for the
81 half-"turly obsessive compulsive person"(s) that depend on it.
82
835.29 Sun Dec 5 10:49:21 CET 2010
84 - convert EV backend to EV 4.00 API (so better upgrade EV too).
85 - AE::Handle: implement dynamic read_size adjustment, add
86 max_read_size parameter, reduce default read_size to 2048.
87 - add some FAQ entries for servers and/or on_eof vs. on_error.
88 - work around OS bugs (cygwin again) when lingering in AE::Handle.
89 - reduce memory usage slightly when connect was used in AE::Handle.
90 - wrok around more segfaults in Tk.
91 - document tls_ctx => undef as valid.
92 - detect WNOHANG value at compiletime.
93 - include some probably linux-only support for building AnyEvent
94 as part of the perl core.
95 - improve compatibility of t/08_idna.t to perl 5.8.
96 - make AnyEvent::Strict truly optional (in case somebody builds a
97 minimal perl...).
98
995.28 Wed Oct 13 04:14:23 CEST 2010
100 - due to a glitch, AnyEvent's internal getprotobyname wasn't
101 actually used in tcp_server.
102 - implement AnyEvent::CondVar->new method, which was documented but
103 missing.
104 - support autoloading of read types in unshift_read.
105 - AnyEvent::Strict: do the test for invalid fh arguments differently,
106 resulting in more informative error messages.
107 - new AnyEvent::FAQ manpage.
108 - clarify that you can actually call push_read etc. in on_read.
109 - put keys and certs in /tmp, not into the current directory,
110 and document this in the SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS sections
111 of AnyEvent::TLS.
112 - support ";" as resolv.conf comment character in AnyEvent::DNS, as
113 requested by Ron Isaacson.
114 - document $AnyEvent::DNS::RESOLVER variable.
115 - incorporated major typo patches by Abhijit Menon-Sen.
116 - AnyEvent::Handle now croaks when negative timeouts are passed.
117 - add a shitload of TCP_xxx sockopt name constants to AnyEvent::Util,
118 undocumented, but who knows when they might come in handy.
119
1205.271 Tue Jun 8 12:05:46 CEST 2010
121 - backport to perl 5.8.x.
122
1235.27 Sun Jun 6 12:12:05 CEST 2010
124 - postpone differently in AnyEvent::Socket now, as
125 when not, canceling the connection attempt might fail
126 (found by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
127 - explicitly check for non-stream sockets in AE::Handle, too many
128 clueless people fell into the trap of this somehow working.
129 - simplified and reworked the "OTHER MODULES" section.
130 - better/more condvar examples.
131
1325.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010
133 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
134 time (found by Andy Grundman).
135
1365.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
137 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
138 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
139 by Bas Denissen).
140 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
141 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
142 EV and Perl backends.
143 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
144 backends.
145 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
146 never documented nor universally supported).
147 - some more memory µ-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
148 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
149
1505.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
151 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
152 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
153 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
154
1555.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
156 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
157 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
158 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
159 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
160 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
161 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
162 by lucky accident on win32.
163 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
164 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
165 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
166 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
167 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
168 detection and eval.
169 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
170 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
171 (same algorithm as EV).
172 - update unicode idna mapping table.
173
1745.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
175 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
176 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
177 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
178 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
179
1805.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
181 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
182 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
183 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
184 - provide $AE::VERSION.
185 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
186
1875.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
188 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
189 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
190 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
191 when passing scalar data to extensions).
192 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
193 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
194 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
195 (John Beppu).
196 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
197 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
198 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
199 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
200
2015.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
202 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
203 (spotted by David Friedland).
204 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
205 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
206 unless you rip out everything but the core).
207 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
208 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
209
2105.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
211 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
212 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
213 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
214 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
215 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
216
2175.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
218 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
219 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
220 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
221 (analysed by elmex).
222
2235.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
224 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
225 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
226 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
227 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
228 AnyEvent::Handle.
229 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
230 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
231 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
232 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
233
2345.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
235 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
236 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
237 by Michael S. Fischer).
238 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
239 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
240 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
241 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
242 by default.
243 - fix some prototypes.
244 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
245 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
246
2475.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
248 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
249 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
250 - port to broken win32 perls.
251
2525.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
253 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
254 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
255 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
256 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
257 OSes as well).
258
2595.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
260 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
261 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
262 to reduce dependency on JSON.
263
2645.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
265 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
266 one (was broken since 4.91).
267 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
268 when retrying a tcp_connect.
269 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
270 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
271
2725.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
273 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
274
2755.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
276 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
277 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
278 in AnyEvent::Handle.
279 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
280 settings.
281 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
282 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
283 exporting the probe function).
284 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
285 code to work around it's watcher limits.
286 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
287 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
288 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
289 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
290 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
291
2924.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
293 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
294 already contains some TLS handshake.
295 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
296 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
297 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
298 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
299 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
300
3014.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
302 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
303 a negative value, so avoid that.
304 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
305 after the condition is already signalled.
306 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
307 data.
308 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
309 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
310 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
311 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
312 any issues).
313 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
314 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
315 by name (not name or number).
316 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
317 only compiling signal code when necessary.
318 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
319 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
320 said future/alternative API.
321 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
322
3234.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
324 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
325 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
326 (analysed by elmex).
327
3284.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
329 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
330 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
331 for errors after every push_write etc.
332 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
333 platforms.
334
3354.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
336 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
337 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
338 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
339 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
340 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
341 tutorial accordingly.
342 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
343
3444.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
345 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
346 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
347 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
348 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
349 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
350 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
351 in IO::Async.
352
3534.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
354 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
355 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
356 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
357 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
358 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
359 documentation.
360 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
361 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
362 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
363 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
364 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
365 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
366
3674.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
368 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
369 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
370 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
371 this trap.
372 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
373 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
374 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
375 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
376 on_read callbacks.
377 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
378
3794.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
380 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
381 callbacks.
382 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
383 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
384 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
385 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
386 Event::Lib.
387 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
388 to rarely fail.
389
3904.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
391 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
392 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
393 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
394 in AnyEvent->io.
395 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
396 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
397 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
398 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
399 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
400 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
401 portable_socketpair.
402 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
403 YMMV.
404
4054.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009
406 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
407 uppercase targets.
408 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
409 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
410 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
411 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
412 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
413 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
414 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
415 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
416 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
417 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
418 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
419 in the common case.
420 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
421 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
422 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
423 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
424 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
425 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
426 from the constructor.
427 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
428 then fall back to JSON.
429 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
430 and because it was documented that way.
431
4324.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
433 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
434 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
435
4364.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
437 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
438 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
439 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
440 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
441 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
442 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
443 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
444 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
445 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
446
4474.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
448 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
449 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
450 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
451 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
452 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
453
4544.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
455 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
456 and set it on the default resolver.
457 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
458 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
459 when running in tainted mode.
460 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
461
4624.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
463 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
464
4654.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
466 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
467 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
468 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
469 destructors.
470 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
471 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
472 implementation.
473 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
474 for cosmetic reasons.
475
4764.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
477 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
478 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
479 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
480 - sped up Tk timer handling.
481 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
482 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
483 - fix Qt timers without interval.
484 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.
485
4864.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
487 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
488 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
489 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
490
4914.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
492 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
493 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
494 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
495 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
496
4974.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
498 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
499 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
500 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
501 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
502 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
503 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
504 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
505 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
506 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
507 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
508 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
509
5104.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
511 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
512 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
513 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
514 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
515 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
516 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
517 backend.
518 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
519
5204.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
521 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
522 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
523 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
524 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
525 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
526 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
527
5284.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
529 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
530 illegal.
531 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
532 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
533 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
534 by Adam Rosenstein).
535 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
536 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
537 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
538
5394.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
540 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
541 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
542 the socket type.
543 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
544
5454.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
546 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
547 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
548 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
549 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
550 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
551 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
552
5534.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
554 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
555 unless one has been installed already.
556 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
557 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
4 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle: 558 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle.
5 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the 559 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
6 client would first wait for some data by the server and 560 client would first wait for some data by the server and
7 otherwise hang. (Reported and analyzed in an absolutely 561 otherwise hang. (reported and analysed in an absolutely
8 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein). 562 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
9 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated 563 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
10 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state. 564 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
11 (Reported and analyzed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam 565 (reported and analysed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
12 Rosenstein). 566 Rosenstein).
13 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context 567 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
14 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) - 568 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
15 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever. 569 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
16 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode. 570 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
