1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. 1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
2 2
3TODO: document ->loop, and maybe one_event.
4 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
5 and set it on the default resolver.
6 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
7 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
8 when running in tainted mode.
9 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
10
114.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
12 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
13
144.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
15 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
16 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
17 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
18 destructors.
19 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
20 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
21 implementation.
22 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
23 for cosmetic reasons.
24
254.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
26 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
27 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
28 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
29 - sped up Tk timer handling.
30 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
31 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
32 - fix Qt timers without interval.
33 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.
34
354.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
36 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
37 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
38 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
39
404.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
41 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
42 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
43 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
44 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
45
464.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
47 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
48 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
49 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
50 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
51 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
52 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
53 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
54 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
55 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
56 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
57 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
58
594.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
60 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
61 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
62 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
63 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
64 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
65 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
66 backend.
67 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
68
694.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
70 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
71 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
72 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
73 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
74 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
75 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
76
774.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
78 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
79 illegal.
80 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
81 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
82 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
83 by Adam Rosenstein).
84 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
85 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
86 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
87
884.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
89 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
90 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
91 the socket type.
92 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
93
944.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
95 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
96 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
97 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
98 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
99 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
100 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
101
1024.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
103 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
104 unless one has been installed already.
105 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
106 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
107 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
108 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
109 client would first wait for some data by the server and
110 otherwise hang. (reported and analyzed in an absolutely
111 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
112 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
113 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
114 (reported and analyzed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
115 Rosenstein).
116 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
117 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
118 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
119 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
120 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
121 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
122 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
123 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
124 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
125 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
126 now, more to come, though.
127 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
128
1294.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
130 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
131 no trace events.
132 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
133 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
134 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
135 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
136 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
137 Time::HiRes).
138
1394.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
140 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
141 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
142
1434.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
144 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
145 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
146 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
147 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
148
1494.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
150 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
151 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
152 perls without resource leaks or worse).
153
1544.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
155 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
156 the callback.
157 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
158 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
159 eol marker.
160 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
161 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
162 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
163
1644.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
165 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
166 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
167 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
168 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
169 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
170
1714.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
172 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
173 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
174 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
175 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
176 unusable way.
177 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
178 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
179 K. Sharifulin).
180
1814.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
182 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
183 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
184 be delayed under some circumstances.
185 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
186 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
187 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
188 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
189 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
190 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
191
1924.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
193 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
194 assumption that all data could be written before read
195 (reported by Jim Razmus).
196
1974.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
198 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
199 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
200 implementation (also affected child watchers).
201 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
202
2034.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
204 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
205 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
206 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
207
2084.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
209 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
210 works.
211
2124.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
213 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
214 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
215 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
216 for AnyEvent::Handle.
217 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
218 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
219
2204.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
221 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
222 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
223 executing the guard block as warnings.
224 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
225
2264.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
227 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
228 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
229 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
230 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
231 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
232 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
233 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
234 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
235 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
236 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
237 enter an endless loop.
238 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
239 busy again after idling.
240 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
241 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
242 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
243 (hopefully).
244 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
245 away any time.
246
2474.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
248 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
249 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
250 - allow more options in on_error.
251
