2 2
3ZERO_RETURN - stoptls? 3TODO: pass values to anyevent condvar callback, make this count as recv.
4TODO: resolv.conf nameserver blabla # comment does not work
5 - update to Async::Interrupt 1.02.
6 - use same set of warningsa s common::sense 2.0.
7 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
8 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
9 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
10 by default.
11
125.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
13 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
14 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
15 - port to broken win32 perls.
16
175.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
18 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
19 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
20 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
21 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
22 OSes as well).
23
245.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
25 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
26 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
27 to reduce dependency on JSON.
28
295.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
30 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
31 one (was broken since 4.91).
32 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
33 when retrying a tcp_connect.
34 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
35 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
36
375.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
38 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
39
405.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
41 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
42 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
43 in AnyEvent::Handle.
44 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
45 settings.
46 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
47 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
48 exporting the probe function).
49 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
50 code to work around it's watcher limits.
51 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
52 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
53 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
54 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
55 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
56
574.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
58 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
59 already contains some TLS handshake.
60 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
61 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
62 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
63 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
64 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
65
664.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
67 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
68 a negative value, so avoid that.
69 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
70 after the condition is already signalled.
71 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
72 data.
73 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
74 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
75 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
76 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
77 any issues).
78 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
79 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
80 by name (not name or number).
81 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
82 only compiling signal code when necessary.
83 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
84 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
85 said future/alternative API.
86 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
87
884.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
89 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
90 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
91 (analyzed by elmex).
92
934.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
94 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
95 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
96 for errors after every push_write etc.
97 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
98 platforms.
99
1004.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
101 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
102 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
103 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
104 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
105 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
106 tutorial accordingly.
107 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
108
1094.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
110 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
111 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
112 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
113 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
114 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
115 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
116 in IO::Async.
117
1184.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
119 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
120 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
121 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
122 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
123 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
124 documentation.
125 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
126 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
127 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
128 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
129 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
130 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
131
1324.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
133 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
134 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
135 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
136 this trap.
137 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
138 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
139 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
140 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
141 on_read callbacks.
142 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
143
1444.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
145 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
146 callbacks.
147 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
148 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
149 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
150 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
151 Event::Lib.
152 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
153 to rarely fail.
154
1554.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
156 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
157 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
158 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
159 in AnyEvent->io.
160 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
161 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
162 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
163 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
164 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
165 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
166 portable_socketpair.
167 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
168 YMMV.
169
1704.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009
171 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
172 uppercase targets.
173 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
174 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
175 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
176 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
177 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
178 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
179 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
180 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
181 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
4 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS, 182 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
5 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint 183 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
6 in the common case. 184 in the common case.
7 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method. 185 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
8 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's 186 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
9 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available). 187 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
188 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
10 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction 189 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
11 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case 190 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
12 from the constructor. 191 from the constructor.
13 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first, 192 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
14 then fall back to JSON. 193 then fall back to JSON.
194 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
195 and because it was documented that way.
15 196
164.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009 1974.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
17 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle 198 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
18 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP. 199 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
