2 2
3 - add some recommends to the META.yml. 3 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
4
54.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
6 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
7 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
8 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
9 destructors.
10 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
11 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
12 implementation.
13 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
14 for cosmetic reasons.
15
164.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
17 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
18 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
19 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
20 - sped up Tk timer handling.
21 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
22 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
23 - fix Qt timers without interval.
24 - avoid Qt zero-timeout specialcase, in old libqt's.
25
264.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
27 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
28 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
29 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
30
314.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
32 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
33 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
34 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
35 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
36
374.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
38 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
39 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
40 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
41 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
42 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
43 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
44 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
45 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
46 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
47 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
48 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
49
504.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
51 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
52 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
53 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
54 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
55 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
56 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
57 backend.
58 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
59
604.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
61 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
62 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
63 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
64 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
65 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
66 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
67
684.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
69 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
70 illegal.
71 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
72 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
73 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
74 by Adam Rosenstein).
75 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
76 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
77 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
78
794.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
80 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
81 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
82 the socket type.
83 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
84
854.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
86 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
87 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
88 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
89 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
90 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
91 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
92
934.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
94 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
95 unless one has been installed already.
96 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
97 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
98 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
99 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
100 client would first wait for some data by the server and
101 otherwise hang. (reported and analyzed in an absolutely
102 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
103 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
104 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
105 (reported and analyzed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
106 Rosenstein).
107 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
108 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
109 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
110 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
111 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
112 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
113 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
114 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
115 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
116 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
117 now, more to come, though.
118 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
119
1204.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
121 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
122 no trace events.
123 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
124 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
125 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
126 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
127 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
128 Time::HiRes).
129
1304.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
131 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
132 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
133
1344.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
135 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
136 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
137 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
138 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
139
1404.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
141 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
142 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
143 perls without resource leaks or worse).
144
1454.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
146 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
147 the callback.
148 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
149 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
150 eol marker.
151 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
152 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
153 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
154
1554.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
156 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
157 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
158 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
159 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
160 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
161
1624.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
163 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
164 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
165 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
166 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
167 unusable way.
168 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
169 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
170 K. Sharifulin).
171
1724.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
173 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
174 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
175 be delayed under some circumstances.
176 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
177 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
178 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
179 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
180 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
181 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
182
1834.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
184 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
185 assumption that all data could be written before read
186 (reported by Jim Razmus).
187
1884.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
189 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
190 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
191 implementation (also affected child watchers).
192 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
193
1944.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
195 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
196 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
197 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
198
1994.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
200 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
201 works.
202
2034.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
204 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
205 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
206 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
207 for AnyEvent::Handle.
208 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
209 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
210
2114.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
212 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
213 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
214 executing the guard block as warnings.
215 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
216
2174.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
218 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
219 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
220 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
221 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
222 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
223 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
224 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
225 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
226 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
227 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
228 enter an endless loop.
229 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
230 busy again after idling.
231 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
232 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
233 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
234 (hopefully).
235 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
236 away any time.
237
2384.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
239 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
240 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
241 - allow more options in on_error.
242
2434.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008
244 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace ptr by real PTR lookup, provide
245 reverse_lookup and reverse_verify to replace it, support
246 v4mapped and v4compat addresses.
247 - provide more documentation for the resolver class.
248 - really replace longest run of :0: by :: in format_address,
249 also properly convert :: and ::1 again.
250 - support NAPTR record name and decode it.
251 - implement random weight sampling for SRV records, as per
252 rfc 2782.
253 - correctly abort on srv-record targets of ".".
254 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot.
255 - in the unlikely event of a virtual circuit connection
256 being invalidated by a delayed udp reply, AnyEvent::DNS
257 could die. this has been fixed.
258 - plug a probable memleak in the DNS vc code.
259 - use configured timeout also for VC request phase.
260 - implement timeout and max_outstanding methods
261 for resolver class.
262 - update version numbers in all modules.
263
2644.1 Thu May 29 05:45:40 CEST 2008
265 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed xxx_ip functions to xxx_address
266 which mirrors their purpose better (old names still available
267 for a while). Also moved AnyEvent::DNS::addr to
268 AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr.
269 - implement AnyEvent->time and AnyEvent->now.
270 - fix IPv6 support in pack_sockaddr.
271 - officially un-experimentalise all newly introduced code.
272 - support unix domain sockets everywhere by specifying
273 a host of "unix/" and the pathname as service.
274 - implement an activity timeout in AnyEvent::Handle.

280 - add support for IPv6 nameservers and nameserver statements.
9 - work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty 281 - work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty
10 select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this 282 select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this
11 workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops, 283 workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops,
12 but EV also works around this). 284 but EV also works around this).
285 - supply AnyEvent::Socket::address_type and make good use of it.
13 - clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle 286 - clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle
14 vs. callback arguments. 287 vs. callback arguments.
