1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. 1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
2 2
3 - add some recommends to the META.yml. 34.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
4 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
5 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
6 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
7 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
8 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
9 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
10 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
11 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
12 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
13
144.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
15 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
16 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
17 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
18 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
19 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
20
214.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
22 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
23 and set it on the default resolver.
24 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
25 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
26 when running in tainted mode.
27 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
28
294.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
30 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
31
324.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
33 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
34 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
35 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
36 destructors.
37 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
38 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
39 implementation.
40 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
41 for cosmetic reasons.
42
434.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
44 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
45 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
46 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
47 - sped up Tk timer handling.
48 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
49 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
50 - fix Qt timers without interval.
51 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.
52
534.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
54 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
55 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
56 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
57
584.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
59 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
60 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
61 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
62 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
63
644.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
65 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
66 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
67 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
68 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
69 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
70 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
71 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
72 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
73 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
74 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
75 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
76
774.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
78 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
79 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
80 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
81 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
82 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
83 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
84 backend.
85 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
86
874.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
88 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
89 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
90 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
91 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
92 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
93 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
94
954.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
96 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
97 illegal.
98 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
99 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
100 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
101 by Adam Rosenstein).
102 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
103 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
104 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
105
1064.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
107 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
108 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
109 the socket type.
110 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
111
1124.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
113 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
114 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
115 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
116 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
117 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
118 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
119
1204.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
121 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
122 unless one has been installed already.
123 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
124 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
125 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
126 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
127 client would first wait for some data by the server and
128 otherwise hang. (reported and analyzed in an absolutely
129 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
130 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
131 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
132 (reported and analyzed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
133 Rosenstein).
134 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
135 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
136 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
137 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
138 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
139 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
140 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
141 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
142 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
143 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
144 now, more to come, though.
145 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
146
1474.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
148 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
149 no trace events.
150 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
151 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
152 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
153 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
154 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
155 Time::HiRes).
156
1574.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
158 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
159 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
160
1614.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
162 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
163 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
164 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
165 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
166
1674.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
168 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
169 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
170 perls without resource leaks or worse).
171
1724.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
173 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
174 the callback.
175 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
176 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
177 eol marker.
178 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
179 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
180 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
181
1824.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
183 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
184 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
185 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
186 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
187 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
188
1894.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
190 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
191 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
192 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
193 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
194 unusable way.
195 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
196 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
197 K. Sharifulin).
198
1994.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
200 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
201 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
202 be delayed under some circumstances.
203 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
204 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
205 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
206 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
207 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
208 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
209
2104.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
211 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
212 assumption that all data could be written before read
213 (reported by Jim Razmus).
214
2154.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
216 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
217 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
218 implementation (also affected child watchers).
219 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
220
2214.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
222 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
223 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
224 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
225
2264.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
227 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
228 works.
229
2304.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
231 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
232 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
233 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
234 for AnyEvent::Handle.
235 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
236 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
237
2384.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
239 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
240 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
241 executing the guard block as warnings.
242 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
243
2444.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
245 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
246 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
247 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
248 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
249 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
250 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
251 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
252 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
253 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
254 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
255 enter an endless loop.
256 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
257 busy again after idling.
258 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
259 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
260 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
261 (hopefully).
262 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
263 away any time.
264
2654.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
266 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
267 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
268 - allow more options in on_error.
269
2704.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008
271 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace ptr by real PTR lookup, provide
272 reverse_lookup and reverse_verify to replace it, support
273 v4mapped and v4compat addresses.
274 - provide more documentation for the resolver class.
275 - really replace longest run of :0: by :: in format_address,
276 also properly convert :: and ::1 again.
277 - support NAPTR record name and decode it.
278 - implement random weight sampling for SRV records, as per
279 rfc 2782.
280 - correctly abort on srv-record targets of ".".
281 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot.
282 - in the unlikely event of a virtual circuit connection
283 being invalidated by a delayed udp reply, AnyEvent::DNS
284 could die. this has been fixed.
285 - plug a probable memleak in the DNS vc code.
286 - use configured timeout also for VC request phase.
287 - implement timeout and max_outstanding methods
288 for resolver class.
289 - update version numbers in all modules.
290
2914.1 Thu May 29 05:45:40 CEST 2008
292 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed xxx_ip functions to xxx_address
293 which mirrors their purpose better (old names still available
294 for a while). Also moved AnyEvent::DNS::addr to
295 AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr.
296 - implement AnyEvent->time and AnyEvent->now.
297 - fix IPv6 support in pack_sockaddr.
298 - officially un-experimentalise all newly introduced code.
299 - support unix domain sockets everywhere by specifying
300 a host of "unix/" and the pathname as service.
301 - implement an activity timeout in AnyEvent::Handle.

6 - always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle. 304 - always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle.
7 - document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle. 305 - document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
8 - implement AnyEvent::Util::fork_call. 306 - implement AnyEvent::Util::fork_call.
307 - add support for IPv6 nameservers and nameserver statements.
9 - work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty 308 - work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty
10 select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this 309 select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this
11 workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops, 310 workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops,
12 but EV also works around this). 311 but EV also works around this).
312 - supply AnyEvent::Socket::address_type and make good use of it.
13 - clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle 313 - clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle
14 vs. callback arguments. 314 vs. callback arguments.
