1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. 1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
2 2
3TODO: destroy is a must when called inside read or write callbacks. 3ZERO_RETURN - stoptls?
4TODO: delet {_rw} on tls eof solves https issues? 4 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
5 uppercase targets.
6 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
7 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
8 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
9 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
10 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
11 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
12 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
13 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
14 in the common case.
15 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
16 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
17 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
18 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
19 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
20 from the constructor.
21 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
22 then fall back to JSON.
23
244.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
25 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
26 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
27
284.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
29 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
30 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
31 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
32 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
33 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
34 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
35 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
36 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
37 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
38
394.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
40 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
41 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
42 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
43 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
44 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
45
464.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
47 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
48 and set it on the default resolver.
49 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
50 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
51 when running in tainted mode.
52 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
53
544.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
55 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
56
574.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
58 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
59 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
60 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
61 destructors.
62 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
63 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
64 implementation.
65 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
66 for cosmetic reasons.
67
684.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
69 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
70 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
71 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
72 - sped up Tk timer handling.
73 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
74 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
75 - fix Qt timers without interval.
76 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.
77
784.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
79 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
80 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
81 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
82
834.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
84 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
85 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
86 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
87 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
88
894.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
90 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
91 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
92 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
93 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
94 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
95 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
96 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
97 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
98 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
99 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
100 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
101
1024.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
103 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
104 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
105 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
106 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
107 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
108 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
109 backend.
110 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
111
1124.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
113 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
114 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
115 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
116 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
117 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
118 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
119
1204.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
121 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
122 illegal.
123 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
124 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
125 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
126 by Adam Rosenstein).
127 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
128 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
129 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
130
1314.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
132 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
133 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
134 the socket type.
135 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
136
1374.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
5 - implement AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method. 138 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
6 - hint about unexpected effects in tls mode. 139 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
140 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
141 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
142 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
143 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.

84.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008 1454.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
9 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE, 146 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
10 unless one has been installed already. 147 unless one has been installed already.
11 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough 148 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
