1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. 1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
2 2
3 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
4 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
5 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
6 this trap.
7 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
8 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
9 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
10 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
11 on_read callbacks.
12 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.

15 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
16 callbacks.
17 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
18 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
19 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
20 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
21 Event::Lib.
22 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
23 to rarely fail.

26 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
27 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
28 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
29 in AnyEvent->io.
30 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
31 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
32 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
33 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
34 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
35 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
36 portable_socketpair.
37 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
38 YMMV.

41 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
42 uppercase targets.
43 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
44 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
45 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
46 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
47 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
48 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
49 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
50 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
51 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
52 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
53 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
54 in the common case.
55 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
56 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
57 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
58 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
59 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
60 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
61 from the constructor.
62 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
63 then fall back to JSON.
64 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
65 and because it was documented that way.
66
674.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
68 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
69 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
70
714.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
72 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
73 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
74 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
75 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
76 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
77 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
78 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
79 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
80 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.

3 - preliminary and neecssarily incomplete support for IO::Async. 83 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
4 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in 84 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
5 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses 85 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
6 even when the calling env acts stupidly. 86 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
87 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
