1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. 1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
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 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
7 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
8 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
9 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
10 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
11 from the constructor.

134.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
14 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
15 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
16
174.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
18 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
19 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
20 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
21 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
22 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
23 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
24 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
25 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
26 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
27
284.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
29 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
30 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
31 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
32 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
33 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
34
354.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
36 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
37 and set it on the default resolver.
38 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
39 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
40 when running in tainted mode.
41 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
42
434.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
44 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
45
464.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
47 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
48 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
49 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
50 destructors.
51 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
52 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
53 implementation.
54 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
55 for cosmetic reasons.
56
574.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
58 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
59 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
60 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
61 - sped up Tk timer handling.
62 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
63 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
64 - fix Qt timers without interval.
65 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.
66
674.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
68 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
69 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
70 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
71
724.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
73 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
74 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
75 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
76 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
77
784.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
79 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
80 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
81 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
82 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
83 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
84 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
85 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
86 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
87 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
88 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
89 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
90
914.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
92 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
93 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
94 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
95 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
96 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
97 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
98 backend.
99 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
100
1014.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
102 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
103 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
104 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
105 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
106 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
107 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
108
1094.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
110 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
111 illegal.
112 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
113 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
114 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
115 by Adam Rosenstein).
116 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
117 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
118 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
119
1204.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
121 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
122 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
123 the socket type.
124 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
125
1264.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
127 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
128 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
129 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
130 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
131 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
132 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
133
1344.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
135 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
136 unless one has been installed already.
137 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
138 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
139 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
140 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
141 client would first wait for some data by the server and
142 otherwise hang. (reported and analyzed in an absolutely
143 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
144 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
145 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
146 (reported and analyzed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
147 Rosenstein).
148 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
149 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
150 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
151 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
152 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
153 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
154 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
155 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
156 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
157 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
158 now, more to come, though.
159 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
160
1614.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
162 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
163 no trace events.
164 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
165 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
166 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
167 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
168 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
169 Time::HiRes).

34.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008 1714.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
4 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang. 172 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
5 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments. 173 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
