4 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
5 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
6 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
7 in AnyEvent->io.
8 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
9 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
10 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
11 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
12 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
13 portable_socketpair.
14 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
15 YMMV.

18 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
19 uppercase targets.
20 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
21 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
22 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
23 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
24 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
25 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
26 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
27 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
28 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
29 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
30 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
31 in the common case.
32 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
33 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
34 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
35 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
36 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
37 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
38 from the constructor.
39 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
40 then fall back to JSON.
41 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
42 and because it was documented that way.
43

45 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
46 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
47
484.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
49 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
50 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
51 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
52 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
53 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
54 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
55 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
56 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
57 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
58
594.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
60 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
61 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
62 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
63 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
64 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
65
664.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
67 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
68 and set it on the default resolver.
69 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
70 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
71 when running in tainted mode.
72 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
73
744.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
75 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
76
774.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
78 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
79 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
80 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
81 destructors.
82 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
83 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
84 implementation.
85 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
86 for cosmetic reasons.
87
884.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
89 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
90 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
91 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
92 - sped up Tk timer handling.
93 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
94 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
95 - fix Qt timers without interval.
96 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.
97
984.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
99 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
100 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
101 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
102
1034.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
104 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
105 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
106 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
107 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).

6 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own 112 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
7 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make 113 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
8 callback execution synchronous to the event loop. 114 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
115 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
116 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
9 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker. 117 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
118 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
119 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
120 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.

13 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the 124 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
14 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS). 125 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
