| 3 | ZERO_RETURN - stoptls? |
3 | TODO: release a:i 1.0 |
|
|
4 | - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with |
|
|
5 | a negative value, so avoid that. |
|
|
6 | - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's |
|
|
7 | signal handling, but do not document this (yet). |
|
|
8 | - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking |
|
|
9 | mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused |
|
|
10 | any issues). |
|
|
11 | - new module: AnyEvent::Debug. |
|
|
12 | - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified |
|
|
13 | by name (not name or number). |
|
|
14 | - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by |
|
|
15 | only compiling signal code when necessary. |
|
|
16 | - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for |
|
|
17 | said future/alternative API. |
|
|
18 | |
|
|
19 | 4.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009 |
|
|
20 | - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing |
|
|
21 | AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not |
|
|
22 | (analyzed by elmex). |
|
|
23 | |
|
|
24 | 4.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009 |
|
|
25 | - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling |
|
|
26 | AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check |
|
|
27 | for errors after every push_write etc. |
|
|
28 | - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken |
|
|
29 | platforms. |
|
|
30 | |
|
|
31 | 4.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009 |
|
|
32 | - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh. |
|
|
33 | - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply |
|
|
34 | segfault in Net::SSLeay. |
|
|
35 | - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters |
|
|
36 | connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated |
|
|
37 | tutorial accordingly. |
|
|
38 | - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend. |
|
|
39 | |
|
|
40 | 4.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009 |
|
|
41 | - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document |
|
|
42 | that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure. |
|
|
43 | - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib. |
|
|
44 | - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries. |
|
|
45 | - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts. |
|
|
46 | - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness |
|
|
47 | in IO::Async. |
|
|
48 | |
|
|
49 | 4.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009 |
|
|
50 | - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all |
|
|
51 | (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY). |
|
|
52 | - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available. |
|
|
53 | - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only. |
|
|
54 | - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent |
|
|
55 | documentation. |
|
|
56 | - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty) |
|
|
57 | by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules. |
|
|
58 | - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG |
|
|
59 | and EPROTO ourselves when missing. |
|
|
60 | - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop. |
|
|
61 | - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement. |
|
|
62 | |
|
|
63 | 4.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009 |
|
|
64 | - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname. |
|
|
65 | - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking |
|
|
66 | waits and will croak, as too many people fall into |
|
|
67 | this trap. |
|
|
68 | - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after |
|
|
69 | executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some |
|
|
70 | half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors. |
|
|
71 | - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and |
|
|
72 | on_read callbacks. |
|
|
73 | - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect. |
|
|
74 | |
|
|
75 | 4.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009 |
|
|
76 | - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as |
|
|
77 | callbacks. |
|
|
78 | - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names |
|
|
79 | in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX |
|
|
80 | module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/. |
|
|
81 | - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in |
|
|
82 | Event::Lib. |
|
|
83 | - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t |
|
|
84 | to rarely fail. |
|
|
85 | |
|
|
86 | 4.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009 |
|
|
87 | - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors |
|
|
88 | (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :). |
|
|
89 | - support file descriptors in addition to file handles |
|
|
90 | in AnyEvent->io. |
|
|
91 | - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF, |
|
|
92 | PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE |
|
|
93 | and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH. |
|
|
94 | - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS. |
|
|
95 | - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage. |
|
|
96 | - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a |
|
|
97 | portable_socketpair. |
|
|
98 | - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend, |
|
|
99 | YMMV. |
|
|
100 | |
|
|
101 | 4.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009 |

102 | - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with |

103 | uppercase targets. |
|
|
104 | - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records |
|
|
105 | with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses, |
|
|
106 | causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception. |
| 6 | - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context |

124 | then fall back to JSON. |
|
|
125 | - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry, |
|
|
126 | and because it was documented that way. |
