|
|
6 | - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all |
|
|
7 | (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY). |
|
|
8 | - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available. |
|
|
9 | - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only. |
|
|
10 | - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent |
|
|
11 | documentation. |
|
|
12 | - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty) |
|
|
13 | by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules. |
|
|
14 | - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG |
|
|
15 | and EPROTO ourselves when missing. |
|
|
16 | - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop. |
|
|
17 | - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement. |
|
|

|
19 | 4.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009 |
|
|
20 | - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname. |
|
|
21 | - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking |
|
|
22 | waits and will croak, as too many people fall into |
|
|
23 | this trap. |
|
|
24 | - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after |
|
|
25 | executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some |
|
|
26 | half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors. |
|
|
27 | - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and |
|
|
28 | on_read callbacks. |
|
|
29 | - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect. |
|
|
30 | |
|
|
31 | 4.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009 |
|
|
32 | - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as |
|
|
33 | callbacks. |
|
|
34 | - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names |
|
|
35 | in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX |
|
|
36 | module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/. |
|
|
37 | - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in |
|
|
38 | Event::Lib. |
|
|
39 | - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t |
|
|
40 | to rarely fail. |
|
|
