4 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
5 one (was broken since 4.91).
6 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
7 when retrying a tcp_connect.
8 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
9 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
10
115.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
12 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
13
145.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
15 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
16 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
17 in AnyEvent::Handle.
18 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
19 settings.
20 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
21 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
22 exporting the probe function).
23 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
24 code to work around it's watcher limits.
25 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
26 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
27 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
28 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
29 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.

314.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
32 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
33 already contains some TLS handshake.
34 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
35 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
36 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
37 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
38 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
39
404.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
41 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
42 a negative value, so avoid that.
43 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
44 after the condition is already signalled.
45 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
46 data.
47 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
48 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
49 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
50 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
51 any issues).
52 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
53 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
54 by name (not name or number).
55 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
56 only compiling signal code when necessary.
57 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
58 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
59 said future/alternative API.
60 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
61
624.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
63 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
64 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
65 (analyzed by elmex).
66
674.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
68 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
69 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
70 for errors after every push_write etc.
71 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
72 platforms.
73
744.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
75 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
76 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
77 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
78 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
79 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
80 tutorial accordingly.
81 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
82
834.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
84 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
85 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
86 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
87 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
88 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
89 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
90 in IO::Async.
91
924.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
93 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
94 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
95 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
96 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
97 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
98 documentation.
99 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
100 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
101 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
102 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
103 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
104 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
105
1064.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
107 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
108 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
109 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
110 this trap.
111 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
112 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
113 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
114 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
115 on_read callbacks.
116 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
117
1184.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
119 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
120 callbacks.
3 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names 121 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
4 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX 122 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
5 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/. 123 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
124 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
125 Event::Lib.
126 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
127 to rarely fail.
