1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. 1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
2 2
3 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
4 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
5 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
6 by Adam Rosenstein).
7
84.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
9 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
10 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
11 the socket type.
12 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
13
144.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
15 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
16 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
17 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
18 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
19 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
20 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
21
224.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
23 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
24 unless one has been installed already.
25 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
26 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
27 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
28 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
29 client would first wait for some data by the server and
30 otherwise hang. (reported and analyzed in an absolutely
31 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
32 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
33 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
34 (reported and analyzed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
35 Rosenstein).
36 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
37 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
38 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
39 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
40 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
41 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
42 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
43 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
44 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
45 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
46 now, more to come, though.
47 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
48
494.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
50 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
51 no trace events.
52 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
53 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
54 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
55 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
56 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
57 Time::HiRes).
58
594.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
60 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
61 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
62
634.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
64 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
65 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
66 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
67 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
68
694.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
70 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
71 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
72 perls without resource leaks or worse).
73
744.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
75 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
76 the callback.
77 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
78 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
79 eol marker.
80 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
81 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
82 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
83
844.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
85 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
86 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
87 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
88 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
89 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
90
914.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
92 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
93 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
94 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
95 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
96 unusable way.
97 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
98 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
99 K. Sharifulin).
100
1014.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
102 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
103 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
104 be delayed under some circumstances.
105 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
106 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
107 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
108 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
109 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
110 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
111
1124.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
113 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
114 assumption that all data could be written before read
115 (reported by Jim Razmus).
116
1174.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
118 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
119 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
120 implementation (also affected child watchers).
121 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
122
1234.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
124 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
125 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
126 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
127
1284.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
129 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
130 works.
131
1324.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
133 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
134 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
135 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
136 for AnyEvent::Handle.
137 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
138 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
139
1404.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
141 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
142 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
143 executing the guard block as warnings.
144 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
145
1464.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
147 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
148 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
149 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
150 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
151 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
152 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
153 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
154 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
155 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
156 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
157 enter an endless loop.
158 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
159 busy again after idling.
160 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
161 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
162 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
163 (hopefully).
164 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
165 away any time.
166
1674.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
168 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
169 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
170 - allow more options in on_error.
171
1724.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008
173 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace ptr by real PTR lookup, provide
174 reverse_lookup and reverse_verify to replace it, support
175 v4mapped and v4compat addresses.
176 - provide more documentation for the resolver class.
177 - really replace longest run of :0: by :: in format_address,
178 also properly convert :: and ::1 again.
179 - support NAPTR record name and decode it.
180 - implement random weight sampling for SRV records, as per
181 rfc 2782.
182 - correctly abort on srv-record targets of ".".
183 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot.
184 - in the unlikely event of a virtual circuit connection
185 being invalidated by a delayed udp reply, AnyEvent::DNS
186 could die. this has been fixed.
187 - plug a probable memleak in the DNS vc code.
188 - use configured timeout also for VC request phase.
189 - implement timeout and max_outstanding methods
190 for resolver class.
191 - update version numbers in all modules.
192
1934.1 Thu May 29 05:45:40 CEST 2008
194 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed xxx_ip functions to xxx_address
195 which mirrors their purpose better (old names still available
196 for a while). Also moved AnyEvent::DNS::addr to
197 AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr.
198 - implement AnyEvent->time and AnyEvent->now.
199 - fix IPv6 support in pack_sockaddr.
200 - officially un-experimentalise all newly introduced code.
201 - support unix domain sockets everywhere by specifying
202 a host of "unix/" and the pathname as service.
203 - implement an activity timeout in AnyEvent::Handle.
204 - added a regex read type to AnyEvent::Handle.
205 - added a json read/write type to AnyEvent::Handle.
206 - always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle.
207 - document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
208 - implement AnyEvent::Util::fork_call.
209 - add support for IPv6 nameservers and nameserver statements.
210 - work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty
211 select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this
212 workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops,
213 but EV also works around this).
214 - supply AnyEvent::Socket::address_type and make good use of it.
215 - clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle
216 vs. callback arguments.
217 - add some recommends to the META.yml.
218
2194.05 Mon May 26 19:44:06 CEST 2008
220 - some platforms ignore the rfc and prepend an extra sa_len member to
221 the sockaddr structure, cater for those. also use sockaddr_family,
222 didn't know it was there, but comes in handy for the workaround.
223 - undo the import WIN32 hack.
224
2254.04 Mon May 26 08:03:31 CEST 2008
226 - try to work around yet another windows bug: failed connects are reported
227 as if it were out-of-band data. windows users: you suck. Only
228 EV, Glib, Event and the pure perl backend can handle this condition.
229 - optimize write algorithm in AnyEvent::Handle.
230 - properly parse PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS and use the info correctly.
231 - tcp_connect now properly iterates through all targets.
232 - check wether IPv6 sockets can actually be created, otherwise, disable ipv6
233 support entirely. also hardcode some AF_INET6 constants for the
234 sake of perl 5.8.
235 - vastly improved nameserver/suffix detection algorithm for windows
236 (still a hack...)
237 - try to use a fallback dns server if no dns servers could be found.
238 - splatter around some local $SIG{__DIE__}'s to work around bad
239 die handlers.
240
2414.03 Sun May 25 05:05:57 CEST 2008
242 - work around perl bugs on windows, where perl returns undocumented
243 error codes for sysread, syswrite etc.
244 - fix AnyEvent::Handle::unshift_read to really unshift and not push.
245 - AnyEvent::Handle could sometimes stumble over 0-byte writes.
246 - fix unpack_sockaddr, now works for AF_INET6 sockaddr's.
247 - updated documentation.
248 - lots of workarounds for perl 5.8 quirks.
249 - implement a more flexible type system for both reads and writes
250 in AnyEvent::Handle.
251 - support IPv6 in tcp_server.
252 - pass local hostname and port to the prepare callback in tcp_server.
253 - make types extendable in AnyEvent::Handle.
254 - croak, not die, in AnyEvent::Handle;
255
2564.0 Sat May 24 19:58:08 CEST 2008
257 - added (experimental) AnyEvent::DNS module.
258 - added (experimental) AnyEvent::Socket module.
259 - added (experiemntal) support for TLS/SSL in AnyEvent::Handle.
260 - make condvar->end call ->send as documented.
261 - make condvar constructor support the documented cb => argument.
262 - overload condvars so you can use them instead of code references.
263 - support more of the POSIX forms instead of a pure dotted quad for
264 verbatim ip addresses.
265 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton will use AnyEvent::DNS now and not fork anymore.
266 - try very hard not to freeze on broken windows perls.
267 - make on_eof optional in AnyEvent::Handle.
268 - support service names in tcp_connect and tcp_server.
269 - work around netbsd/openbsd bug causing unix sockets not to
270 become writable until empty.
271 - only make a dummy read for error detection when getpeername
272 returns ENOTCONN.
273 - defend AnyEvent::Util::inet_aton against Coro::LWP's brutal
274 override.
275 - new AnyEvent::Guard::cancel.
276
2773.5 Sat May 17 23:17:14 CEST 2008
3 - gracefully deal with systems not defining CLOCK_MONOTONIC 278 - gracefully deal with systems not defining CLOCK_MONOTONIC
4 (as opposed to not supporting the clock itself, which worked in 3.41). 279 (as opposed to not supporting the clock itself, which worked in 3.41).
5 - added AnyEvent::Util::tcp_connect and AnyEvent::Util::tcp_server 280 - added AnyEvent::Util::tcp_connect and AnyEvent::Util::tcp_server
6 helpers, to replace the ill-designed AnyEvent::Socket class. 281 helpers, to replace the ill-designed AnyEvent::Socket class.
