1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. 1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
2 2
3 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
4 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
5
64.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
7 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
8 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
9 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
10 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
11 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
12 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
13 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
14 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
15 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
16 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
17 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
18
194.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
20 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
21 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
22 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
23 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
24 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
25 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
26 backend.
27 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
28
294.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
30 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
31 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
32 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
33 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
34 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
35 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
36
374.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
38 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
39 illegal.
40 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
41 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
42 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
43 by Adam Rosenstein).
44 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
45 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
46 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
47
484.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
49 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
50 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
51 the socket type.
52 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
53
544.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
55 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
56 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
57 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
58 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
59 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
60 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
61
624.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
63 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
64 unless one has been installed already.
65 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
66 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
67 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
68 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
69 client would first wait for some data by the server and
70 otherwise hang. (reported and analyzed in an absolutely
71 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
72 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
73 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
74 (reported and analyzed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
75 Rosenstein).
76 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
77 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
78 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
79 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
80 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
81 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
82 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
83 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
84 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
85 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
86 now, more to come, though.
87 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
88
894.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
90 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
91 no trace events.
92 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
93 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
94 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
95 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
96 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
97 Time::HiRes).
98
994.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
100 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
101 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
102
1034.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
104 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
105 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
106 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
107 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
108
1094.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
110 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
111 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
112 perls without resource leaks or worse).
113
1144.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
115 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
116 the callback.
117 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
118 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
119 eol marker.
120 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
121 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
122 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
123
1244.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
125 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
126 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
127 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
128 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
129 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
130
1314.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
132 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
133 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
134 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
135 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
136 unusable way.
137 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
138 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
139 K. Sharifulin).
140
1414.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
142 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
143 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
144 be delayed under some circumstances.
145 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
146 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
147 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
148 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
149 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
150 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
151
1524.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
153 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
154 assumption that all data could be written before read
155 (reported by Jim Razmus).
156
1574.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
158 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
159 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
160 implementation (also affected child watchers).
161 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
162
1634.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
164 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
165 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
166 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
167
1684.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
169 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
170 works.
171
1724.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
173 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
174 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
175 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
176 for AnyEvent::Handle.
177 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
178 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
179
1804.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
181 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
182 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
183 executing the guard block as warnings.
184 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
185
1864.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
187 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
188 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
189 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
190 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
191 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
192 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
193 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
194 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
195 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
196 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
197 enter an endless loop.
198 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
199 busy again after idling.
200 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
201 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
202 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
203 (hopefully).
204 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
205 away any time.
206
2074.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
208 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
209 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
210 - allow more options in on_error.
211
2124.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008
213 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace ptr by real PTR lookup, provide
214 reverse_lookup and reverse_verify to replace it, support
215 v4mapped and v4compat addresses.
216 - provide more documentation for the resolver class.
217 - really replace longest run of :0: by :: in format_address,
218 also properly convert :: and ::1 again.
219 - support NAPTR record name and decode it.
220 - implement random weight sampling for SRV records, as per
221 rfc 2782.
222 - correctly abort on srv-record targets of ".".
223 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot.
224 - in the unlikely event of a virtual circuit connection
225 being invalidated by a delayed udp reply, AnyEvent::DNS
226 could die. this has been fixed.
227 - plug a probable memleak in the DNS vc code.
228 - use configured timeout also for VC request phase.
229 - implement timeout and max_outstanding methods
230 for resolver class.
231 - update version numbers in all modules.
232
2334.1 Thu May 29 05:45:40 CEST 2008
234 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed xxx_ip functions to xxx_address
235 which mirrors their purpose better (old names still available
236 for a while). Also moved AnyEvent::DNS::addr to
237 AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr.
238 - implement AnyEvent->time and AnyEvent->now.
239 - fix IPv6 support in pack_sockaddr.
240 - officially un-experimentalise all newly introduced code.
241 - support unix domain sockets everywhere by specifying
242 a host of "unix/" and the pathname as service.
243 - implement an activity timeout in AnyEvent::Handle.
3 - added a a regex read type to AnyEvent::Handle. 244 - added a regex read type to AnyEvent::Handle.
245 - added a json read/write type to AnyEvent::Handle.
4 - always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle. 246 - always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle.
5 - document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle. 247 - document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
248 - implement AnyEvent::Util::fork_call.
249 - add support for IPv6 nameservers and nameserver statements.
250 - work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty
251 select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this
252 workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops,
253 but EV also works around this).
254 - supply AnyEvent::Socket::address_type and make good use of it.
255 - clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle
256 vs. callback arguments.
257 - add some recommends to the META.yml.
