1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. 1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
2 2
3TODO: implement condvars... 3TODO: ssl-bug (write can caquse read data to become available, in_drain causes skip, no progress detected).
4 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
5 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
6 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
7 backend.
8 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
9
104.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
11 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
12 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
13 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
14 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
15 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
16 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
17
184.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
19 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
20 illegal.
21 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
22 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
23 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
24 by Adam Rosenstein).
25 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
26 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
27 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
28
294.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
30 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
31 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
32 the socket type.
33 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
34
354.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
36 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
37 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
38 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
39 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
40 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
41 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
42
434.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
44 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
45 unless one has been installed already.
46 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
47 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
48 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
49 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
50 client would first wait for some data by the server and
51 otherwise hang. (reported and analyzed in an absolutely
52 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
53 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
54 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
55 (reported and analyzed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
56 Rosenstein).
57 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
58 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
59 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
60 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
61 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
62 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
63 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
64 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
65 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
66 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
67 now, more to come, though.
68 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
69
704.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
71 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
72 no trace events.
73 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
74 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
75 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
76 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
77 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
78 Time::HiRes).
79
804.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
81 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
82 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
83
844.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
85 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
86 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
87 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
88 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
89
904.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
91 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
92 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
93 perls without resource leaks or worse).
94
954.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
96 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
97 the callback.
98 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
99 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
100 eol marker.
101 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
102 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
103 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
104
1054.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
106 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
107 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
108 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
109 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
110 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
111
1124.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
113 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
114 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
115 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
116 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
117 unusable way.
118 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
119 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
120 K. Sharifulin).
121
1224.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
123 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
124 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
125 be delayed under some circumstances.
126 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
127 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
128 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
129 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
130 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
131 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
132
1334.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
134 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
135 assumption that all data could be written before read
136 (reported by Jim Razmus).
137
1384.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
139 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
140 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
141 implementation (also affected child watchers).
142 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
143
1444.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
145 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
146 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
147 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
148
1494.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
150 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
151 works.
152
1534.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
154 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
155 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
156 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
157 for AnyEvent::Handle.
158 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
159 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
160
1614.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
162 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
163 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
164 executing the guard block as warnings.
165 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
166
1674.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
168 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
169 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
170 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
171 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
172 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
173 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
174 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
175 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
176 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
177 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
178 enter an endless loop.
179 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
180 busy again after idling.
181 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
182 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
183 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
184 (hopefully).
185 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
186 away any time.
187
1884.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
189 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
190 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
191 - allow more options in on_error.
192
1934.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008
194 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace ptr by real PTR lookup, provide
195 reverse_lookup and reverse_verify to replace it, support
196 v4mapped and v4compat addresses.
197 - provide more documentation for the resolver class.
198 - really replace longest run of :0: by :: in format_address,
199 also properly convert :: and ::1 again.
200 - support NAPTR record name and decode it.
201 - implement random weight sampling for SRV records, as per
202 rfc 2782.
203 - correctly abort on srv-record targets of ".".
204 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot.
205 - in the unlikely event of a virtual circuit connection
206 being invalidated by a delayed udp reply, AnyEvent::DNS
207 could die. this has been fixed.
208 - plug a probable memleak in the DNS vc code.
209 - use configured timeout also for VC request phase.
210 - implement timeout and max_outstanding methods
211 for resolver class.
212 - update version numbers in all modules.
213
2144.1 Thu May 29 05:45:40 CEST 2008
215 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed xxx_ip functions to xxx_address
216 which mirrors their purpose better (old names still available
217 for a while). Also moved AnyEvent::DNS::addr to
218 AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr.
219 - implement AnyEvent->time and AnyEvent->now.
220 - fix IPv6 support in pack_sockaddr.
221 - officially un-experimentalise all newly introduced code.
222 - support unix domain sockets everywhere by specifying
223 a host of "unix/" and the pathname as service.
224 - implement an activity timeout in AnyEvent::Handle.
225 - added a regex read type to AnyEvent::Handle.
226 - added a json read/write type to AnyEvent::Handle.
227 - always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle.
228 - document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
229 - implement AnyEvent::Util::fork_call.
230 - add support for IPv6 nameservers and nameserver statements.
231 - work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty
232 select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this
233 workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops,
234 but EV also works around this).
235 - supply AnyEvent::Socket::address_type and make good use of it.
236 - clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle
237 vs. callback arguments.
238 - add some recommends to the META.yml.
239
2404.05 Mon May 26 19:44:06 CEST 2008
241 - some platforms ignore the rfc and prepend an extra sa_len member to
242 the sockaddr structure, cater for those. also use sockaddr_family,
243 didn't know it was there, but comes in handy for the workaround.
244 - undo the import WIN32 hack.
245
2464.04 Mon May 26 08:03:31 CEST 2008
247 - try to work around yet another windows bug: failed connects are reported
248 as if it were out-of-band data. windows users: you suck. Only
249 EV, Glib, Event and the pure perl backend can handle this condition.
250 - optimize write algorithm in AnyEvent::Handle.
251 - properly parse PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS and use the info correctly.
252 - tcp_connect now properly iterates through all targets.
253 - check wether IPv6 sockets can actually be created, otherwise, disable ipv6
254 support entirely. also hardcode some AF_INET6 constants for the
255 sake of perl 5.8.
256 - vastly improved nameserver/suffix detection algorithm for windows
257 (still a hack...)
258 - try to use a fallback dns server if no dns servers could be found.
259 - splatter around some local $SIG{__DIE__}'s to work around bad
260 die handlers.
261
2624.03 Sun May 25 05:05:57 CEST 2008
263 - work around perl bugs on windows, where perl returns undocumented
264 error codes for sysread, syswrite etc.
265 - fix AnyEvent::Handle::unshift_read to really unshift and not push.
266 - AnyEvent::Handle could sometimes stumble over 0-byte writes.
267 - fix unpack_sockaddr, now works for AF_INET6 sockaddr's.
268 - updated documentation.
269 - lots of workarounds for perl 5.8 quirks.
270 - implement a more flexible type system for both reads and writes
271 in AnyEvent::Handle.
272 - support IPv6 in tcp_server.
273 - pass local hostname and port to the prepare callback in tcp_server.
274 - make types extendable in AnyEvent::Handle.
275 - croak, not die, in AnyEvent::Handle;
276
2774.0 Sat May 24 19:58:08 CEST 2008
278 - added (experimental) AnyEvent::DNS module.
279 - added (experimental) AnyEvent::Socket module.
280 - added (experiemntal) support for TLS/SSL in AnyEvent::Handle.
281 - make condvar->end call ->send as documented.
282 - make condvar constructor support the documented cb => argument.
283 - overload condvars so you can use them instead of code references.
284 - support more of the POSIX forms instead of a pure dotted quad for
285 verbatim ip addresses.
286 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton will use AnyEvent::DNS now and not fork anymore.
287 - try very hard not to freeze on broken windows perls.
288 - make on_eof optional in AnyEvent::Handle.
289 - support service names in tcp_connect and tcp_server.
290 - work around netbsd/openbsd bug causing unix sockets not to
291 become writable until empty.
292 - only make a dummy read for error detection when getpeername
293 returns ENOTCONN.
294 - defend AnyEvent::Util::inet_aton against Coro::LWP's brutal
295 override.
296 - new AnyEvent::Guard::cancel.
297
2983.5 Sat May 17 23:17:14 CEST 2008
299 - gracefully deal with systems not defining CLOCK_MONOTONIC
300 (as opposed to not supporting the clock itself, which worked in 3.41).
301 - added AnyEvent::Util::tcp_connect and AnyEvent::Util::tcp_server
302 helpers, to replace the ill-designed AnyEvent::Socket class.
303 - added some examples (eg/connect, eg/handle).
304 - added AnyEvent::Util::guard.
305 - AnyEvent::Util now exports most of its functions.
306 - fixed a bug in *_read_chunk, where the callback was called with $self as
307 first and second argument.
308 - simplified and fixed regex handling in AnyEvent::Handle::*_read_line.
309 - fix manpage condvars examples to use new syntax.
310 - considerably improve inet_aton with EV::ADNS backend to support
311 cname chains (common dns configuration bug, e.g. with www.google.de)
312 and aaaa records if no a record could be found.
313
3143.41 Sun May 11 19:53:13 CEST 2008
315 - work around a bug in perl 5.8.8's local. Reported by Yi Ma Mao.
316
3173.4 Sun May 11 00:29:25 CEST 2008
318 - complete re-implementation of condvars with a hopefully much more useful
319 API (backward compatible functions exist but are undocumented).
320 - AnyEvent::Handle fully rewritten with a hopefully more powerful API
321 (still subject to change).
4 - take advantage of CLOCK_MONOTONIC, if available, in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl. 322 - take advantage of CLOCK_MONOTONIC, if available, in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
5 - provide AnyEvent::post_detect and @AnyEvent::post_detect, which 323 - provide AnyEvent::post_detect and @AnyEvent::post_detect, which
6 allows module authors to avoid forcing event loop detection. 324 allows module authors to avoid forcing event loop detection.
7 (used by Coro::AIO, Coro::BDB, Coro::AnyEvent for example). 325 (used by Coro::AIO, Coro::BDB, Coro::AnyEvent for example).
8 - remove coro backends: Coro now provides generic support for AnyEvent 326 - remove coro backends: Coro now provides generic support for AnyEvent
