1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. 1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
2 2
3 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
4 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
5 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.

8 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
9 uppercase targets.
10 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
11 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
12 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
13 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
14 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
15 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
16 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
17 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
18 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
19 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
20 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
21 in the common case.
22 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
23 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
24 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
25 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
26 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
27 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
28 from the constructor.
29 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
30 then fall back to JSON.
31 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
32 and because it was documented that way.
33
344.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
35 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
36 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
37
384.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
39 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
40 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
41 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
42 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
43 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
44 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
45 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
46 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
47 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
48
494.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
50 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
51 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
52 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
53 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
54 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
55
564.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
57 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
58 and set it on the default resolver.
59 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
60 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
61 when running in tainted mode.
62 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
63
644.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
65 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
66
674.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
68 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
69 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
70 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
71 destructors.
72 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
73 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
74 implementation.
75 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
76 for cosmetic reasons.
77
784.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
79 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
80 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
81 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
82 - sped up Tk timer handling.
83 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
84 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
85 - fix Qt timers without interval.
86 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.
87
884.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
89 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
90 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
91 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
92
934.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
94 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
95 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
96 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
97 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
98
994.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
100 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
101 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
102 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
103 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
104 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
105 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
106 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
107 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
108 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
109 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
110 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
111
1124.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
113 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
114 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
115 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
116 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
117 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
118 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
119 backend.
120 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
121
1224.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
123 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
124 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
125 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
126 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
127 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
128 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
129
1304.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
131 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
132 illegal.
3 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend 133 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
4 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle. 134 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
5 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported 135 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
6 by Adam Rosenstein). 136 by Adam Rosenstein).
7 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result 137 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
