1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. 1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
2 2
3 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
4 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
5 in the common case.
6 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
7 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
8 from the constructor.
9
104.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
11 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
12 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
13 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
14 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
15 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
16 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
17 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
18 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
19 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
20
214.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
22 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
23 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
24 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
25 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
26 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
27
284.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
29 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
30 and set it on the default resolver.
31 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
32 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
33 when running in tainted mode.
34 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
35
364.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
37 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
38
394.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
40 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
41 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
42 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
43 destructors.
44 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
45 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
46 implementation.
47 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
48 for cosmetic reasons.
49
504.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
51 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
52 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
53 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
54 - sped up Tk timer handling.
55 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
56 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
57 - fix Qt timers without interval.
58 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.
59
604.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
61 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
62 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
63 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
64
654.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
66 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
67 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
68 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
69 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
70
714.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
72 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
73 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
74 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
75 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
76 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
77 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
78 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
79 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
80 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
81 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
82 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
83
844.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
85 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
86 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
87 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
88 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
89 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
90 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
91 backend.
92 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
93
944.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
95 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
96 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
97 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
98 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
99 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
100 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
101
1024.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
103 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
104 illegal.
105 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
106 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
107 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
108 by Adam Rosenstein).
109 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
110 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
111 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
112
1134.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
114 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
115 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
116 the socket type.
117 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
118
1194.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
120 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
121 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
122 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
123 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
124 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
125 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
126
1274.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
128 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
129 unless one has been installed already.
130 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
131 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
132 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
133 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
134 client would first wait for some data by the server and
135 otherwise hang. (reported and analyzed in an absolutely
136 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
137 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
138 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
139 (reported and analyzed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
140 Rosenstein).
141 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
142 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
143 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
144 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
145 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
146 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
147 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
148 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
149 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
150 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
151 now, more to come, though.
152 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
153
1544.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
155 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
156 no trace events.
157 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
158 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
159 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
160 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
161 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
162 Time::HiRes).
163
1644.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
165 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
166 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
167
1684.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
169 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
170 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
171 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
172 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
173
1744.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
175 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
176 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
177 perls without resource leaks or worse).
178
1794.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
180 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
181 the callback.
182 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
183 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
184 eol marker.
185 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
186 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
187 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
188
1894.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
190 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
191 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
192 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
193 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
194 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
195
1964.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008

4 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax. 198 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
199 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
200 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
201 unusable way.
5 - avoid calling do_retry if the request has already 202 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
6 finished in AnyEvent::DNS (reported by Anatoly K. Sharifulin). 203 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
204 K. Sharifulin).
