3TODO: document ->loop, and maybe one_event. 34.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
4 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
5 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not.
6
74.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
8 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
9 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
10 for errors after every push_write etc.
11 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
12 platforms.
13
144.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
15 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
16 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
17 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
18 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
19 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
20 tutorial accordingly.
21 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
22
234.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
24 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
25 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
26 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
27 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
28 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
29 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
30 in IO::Async.
31
324.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
33 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
34 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
35 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
36 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
37 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
38 documentation.
39 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
40 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
41 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
42 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
43 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
44 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
45
464.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
47 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
48 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
49 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
50 this trap.
51 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
52 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
53 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
54 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
55 on_read callbacks.
56 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
57
584.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
59 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
60 callbacks.
61 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
62 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
63 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
64 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
65 Event::Lib.
66 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
67 to rarely fail.
68
694.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
70 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
71 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
72 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
73 in AnyEvent->io.
74 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
75 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
76 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
77 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
78 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
79 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
80 portable_socketpair.
81 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
82 YMMV.
83
844.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009
85 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
86 uppercase targets.
87 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
88 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
89 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
90 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
91 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
92 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
93 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
94 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
95 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
96 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
97 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
98 in the common case.
99 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
100 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
101 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
102 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
103 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
104 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
105 from the constructor.
106 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
107 then fall back to JSON.
108 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
109 and because it was documented that way.
110
1114.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
112 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
113 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
114
1154.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
116 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
117 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
118 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
119 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
120 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
121 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
122 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
123 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
124 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
125
1264.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
127 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
128 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
129 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
130 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
131 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
132
