3 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
4
54.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
6 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
7 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
8 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
9 this trap.
10 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
11 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
12 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
13 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
14 on_read callbacks.
15 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.

174.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
18 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
19 callbacks.
20 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
21 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
22 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
23 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
24 Event::Lib.
25 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
26 to rarely fail.

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

44 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
45 uppercase targets.
46 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
47 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
48 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
49 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
50 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
51 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
52 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
53 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
54 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
3 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS, 55 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
4 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint 56 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
5 in the common case. 57 in the common case.
58 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
59 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
60 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
61 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
62 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
63 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
64 from the constructor.
65 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
66 then fall back to JSON.
67 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
68 and because it was documented that way.
69
704.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
71 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
72 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.

74.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009 744.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
8 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create 75 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
9 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh. 76 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
10 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both 77 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
