35.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
4 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
5 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
6 in AnyEvent::Handle.
7 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
8 settings.
9 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
10 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
11 exporting the probe function).
12 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
13 code to work around it's watcher limits.
14 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
15 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
16 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
17 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
18 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.

204.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
21 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
22 already contains some TLS handshake.
23 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
24 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
25 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
26 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
27 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
28
294.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
30 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
31 a negative value, so avoid that.
32 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
33 after the condition is already signalled.
34 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
35 data.
36 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
37 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
38 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
39 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
40 any issues).
41 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
42 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
43 by name (not name or number).
44 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
45 only compiling signal code when necessary.
46 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
47 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
48 said future/alternative API.
49 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.

514.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
52 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
53 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
54 (analyzed by elmex).
55
564.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
57 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
58 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
59 for errors after every push_write etc.
60 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
61 platforms.
62
634.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
64 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
65 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
66 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
67 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
68 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
69 tutorial accordingly.
70 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
71
724.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
73 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
74 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
75 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
76 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
77 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
78 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
79 in IO::Async.
80
814.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
82 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
83 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
84 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
85 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
86 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
87 documentation.
88 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
89 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
90 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
91 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
92 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
93 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
94
954.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
96 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
97 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
98 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
99 this trap.
100 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
101 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
102 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
103 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
104 on_read callbacks.
105 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
106
1074.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
108 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
109 callbacks.
3 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names 110 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
4 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX 111 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
5 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/. 112 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
6 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in 113 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
7 Event::Lib. 114 Event::Lib.
