3TODO: implement getprotobyname 3TODO: packagename for ae types
4
5 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
6 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
7
85.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
9 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
10 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
11 by Michael S. Fischer).
12 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
13 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
14 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
15 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
16 by default.
17 - fix some prototypes.
18 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
19 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
20
215.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
22 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
23 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
24 - port to broken win32 perls.
25
265.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
27 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
28 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
29 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
30 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
31 OSes as well).
32
335.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
34 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
35 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
36 to reduce dependency on JSON.
37
385.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
39 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
40 one (was broken since 4.91).
41 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
42 when retrying a tcp_connect.
43 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
44 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
45
465.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
47 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
48
495.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
50 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
51 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
52 in AnyEvent::Handle.
53 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
54 settings.
55 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
56 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
57 exporting the probe function).
58 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
59 code to work around it's watcher limits.
60 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
61 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
62 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
63 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
64 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
65
664.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
67 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
68 already contains some TLS handshake.
69 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
70 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
71 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
72 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
73 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
74
754.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
76 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
77 a negative value, so avoid that.
78 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
79 after the condition is already signalled.
80 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
81 data.
82 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
83 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
84 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
85 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
86 any issues).
87 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
88 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
89 by name (not name or number).
90 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
91 only compiling signal code when necessary.
92 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
93 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
94 said future/alternative API.
95 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
96
974.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
98 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
99 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
100 (analyzed by elmex).
101
1024.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
103 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
104 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
105 for errors after every push_write etc.
106 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
107 platforms.
108
1094.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
110 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
111 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
112 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
113 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
114 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
115 tutorial accordingly.
116 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
117
1184.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
119 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
120 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
121 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
122 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
123 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
124 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
125 in IO::Async.
126
1274.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
128 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
129 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
130 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
131 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
132 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
133 documentation.
134 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
135 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
136 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
137 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
138 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
139 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
140
1414.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
142 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
143 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
144 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
145 this trap.
4 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after 146 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
5 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some 147 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
6 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors. 148 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
7 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and 149 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
8 on_read callbacks. 150 on_read callbacks.
