8 | 7.0 Fri Apr 13 06:33:30 CEST 2012 |
|
|
9 | - child watchers are broken in POE 1.352 (also many earlier |
|
|
10 | versions) and there seems to be no way to work around it, as POE |
|
|
11 | itself is inherently racy. Document this regression and add a delay |
|
|
12 | in t/68_poe_03_child.t for the time being. |
|
|
13 | - new module AnyEvent::IO, that is a frontend to either a pure-perl |
|
|
14 | synchronous I/O implementation (AnyEvent::IO::Perl), or to the |
|
|
15 | asynchronous I/O extension IO::AIO (AnyEvent::IO::IOAIO). |
|
|
16 | - load /etc/hosts only when DNS has no answer. |
|
|
17 | - stat /etc/hosts on every access and reload it if it changed. |
|
|
18 | - load /etc/hosts via AnyEvent::IO - potentially asynchronous. |
|
|
19 | - fix a buggy croak in the dh parameter rsading in AnyEvent::TLS. |
|
|
20 | - AnyEvent::Log log_to_file and log_to_path now use AnyEvent::IO. As |
|
|
21 | a side effect, they now use true appending as opposed to libc |
|
|
22 | appending, and the file might not have been opened when the function |
|
|
23 | returns. |
|
|
24 | - the default logging level was not properly documented in a variety of |
|
|
25 | places, this has hopefully been rectified. |
|
|
26 | - updated uts46data.pl for unicode 6.1.0. |
|
|
27 | - made log messages genearted by AnyEvent submodules not |
|
|
28 | include the package name anymore, as it will be logged |
|
|
29 | by default already. |
|
|
30 | - upgrade to the trick used by common-sense 3.5 to work |
|
|
31 | around extra warning torture/breakage under perl 5.15.x. |
|
|
32 | - log messages by anyevent are now ucfirst, are usually full |
|
|
33 | sentences and do no longer include the package name. |
|
|
34 | - the storable read type would sometimes throw an exception instead |
|
|
35 | of causing EBADMSG (analyzed by Maxime Soulé). |
|
|
36 | - work around a bug in openssl 1.0.1 which enforces a minimum rsa |
|
|
37 | keysize (reported by Paul Howarth). |
|
|
38 | - documented Rocco fabricating statements about AnyEvent and me. |
|
|
39 | |
|
|
40 | 6.14 Tue Jan 31 20:00:24 CET 2012 |
|
|
41 | - AnyEvent::Impl::Tk was broken due to a mysterious "die" inside, |
|
|
42 | probably an editing mistake (reported by Darin McBride). |
|
|
43 | |
|
|
44 | 6.13 Thu Jan 12 07:27:01 CET 2012 |
|
|
45 | - AnyEvent::Util::fork_call checked for POSIX availability in the wrong way, |
|
|
46 | causing it to fail if POSIX wasn't loaded already (analysed by Rock Power). |
|
|
47 | - AnyEvent::Handle::push_read (line => did pass $1 directly, so |
|
|
48 | regex-matching inside the callback would change the parameter, despite |
|
|
49 | $1 being dynamically scoped per-block. this perl bug is now being |
|
|
50 | worked around (testcase by Cindy Wang). |
|
|
51 | |
|
|
52 | 6.12 Mon Dec 12 13:21:10 CET 2011 |
|
|
53 | - $! was clobbered by subsequent calls in tcp_connect, due to |
|
|
54 | the postpone not saving/restoring it (analyzed by Richard Garnish). |
|
|
55 | |
|
|
56 | 6.11 Tue Nov 22 10:36:05 CET 2011 |
|
|
57 | - Tk cannot create windows when tainted unless you set a title, so |
|
|
58 | set a dummy title for AnyEvent's dummy mainwindow. How dummy. |
|
|
59 | - escape any nonprintable/nonascii characters when stringifying |
|
|
60 | backtraces. |
|
|
61 | - log the reason loading an interface module fails to load at level debug. |
|
|
62 | |
|
|
63 | 6.1 Tue Oct 4 19:44:30 CEST 2011 |
|
|
64 | - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the default log level is now "4" (error |
|
|
65 | and above), and some messages inside AnyEvent have been elevated |
|
|
66 | to higher log levels to print by default. |
|
|
67 | - AnyEvent::log, unlike AnyEvent::Log::log, did not always exit on fatal. |
|
|
68 | - work around yet another signal race bug, newly introduced by POE. My |
|
|
69 | how that module sucks. |
|
|
70 | - add google public ipv6 dns as fallback servers, so AE::DNS can finally |
|
|
71 | support ipv6-only operation even with defaults (also use ::1 instead |
|
|
72 | of 127.0.0.1). |
|
|
73 | - give better guidelines on how to chose a logging level. |
|
|
74 | - AnyEvent::Log can now cap (limit) log message priority by context. |
|
|
75 | - AE::log will now save and restore $! and $@, so callers don't have to. |
|
|
76 | - AE::Strict now checks that registered fds are still valid at regular |
|
|
77 | intervals. |
|
|
78 | - skip frequently called 'require' calls if the module appears loaded. |
|
|
79 | - increase signal latency test timer considerably for poor little osx, |
|
|
80 | which can't be bothered with basic posix functionality such as signal |
|
|
81 | delivery. |
|
|
82 | - mention some debugging aids in the tutorial. |
|
|
83 | - new env variable PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY. |
|
|
84 | - private (%namespace) log contexts in PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG now have the name |
|
|
85 | of the context as title. |
|
|
86 | - AnyEvent::Strict would not restore read-write access to $_ when a callback |
|
|
87 | died - this is a user bug, but since AE::Strict exists to help dbeugging... |
|
|
88 | - detect the extremely evil IO::Async::Loop::AnyEvent module and refuse |
|
|
89 | to work with it - the author is well aware of the issues but refuses |
|
|
90 | to fix them. This extreme step has been taken because the module actively |
|
|
91 | attacks the goals of AnyEvent and makes it harder for module authors to use |
|
|
92 | AnyEvent. |
|
|
93 | |
|
|
94 | 6.02 Fri Aug 26 20:08:31 CEST 2011 |
|
|
95 | - log_to_syslog now accepts facility strings. |
|
|
96 | - log_to_syslog would not allow facilities - "$facility|$level" |
|
|
97 | *literally* means that string. sheesh. |
|
|
98 | - the CPAN parser got confused and thought we provide Sys::Syslog, try |
|
|
99 | to work around. |
|
|
100 | - renamed AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2 to FLTK. |
|
|
101 | |
|
|
102 | 6.01 Fri Aug 26 07:04:11 CEST 2011 |
|
|
103 | - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::DNS resource records now include |
|
|
104 | the TTL as fourth element - this affects ->resolve, ->request |
|
|
105 | and ->dns_unpack indirectly. Convenience functions such as |
|
|
106 | AnyEvent::DNS::{a,txt,mx,srv} are not affected, neither is |
|
|
107 | AnyEvent::Socket. |
|
|
108 | - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: backend authors now should not implement |
|
|
109 | one_event or loop, but instead the AnyEvent::CondVar::_wait and _poll |
|
|
110 | methods. |
|
|
111 | - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: verbosity levels have been redefined, see |
|
|
112 | AnyEvent (PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE) and AnyEvent::Log for details. |
|
|
113 | - DEPRECIATION: please change |
|
|
114 | "use AnyEvent::Impl::Perl" to "use AnyEvent::Loop" and |
|
|
115 | "AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop" to "AnyEvent::Loop::run" |
|
|
116 | in your programs, for future compatibility. |
|
|
117 | - *blush* idle watcher emulation was borked. |
|
|
118 | - AnyEvent::Strict now checks the AE::xxx functions as well. |
|
|
119 | - querying too long domain names would barf deep inside AnyEvent::DNS - since |
|
|
120 | this is hard to avoid for applications, AnyEvent:.DNS::request now checks for |
|
|
121 | for too long domain names explicitly and passes an undef to the callback |
|
|
122 | instead (reported by James Bromberger). |
|
|
123 | - make AnyEvent::Util more robust against EINTR (analyzed by Andrew Suffield). |
|
|
124 | - new functions: AnyEvent::postpone, AnyEvent::log. |
|
|
125 | - new module: AnyEvent::Log, for simple logging needs. |
|
|
126 | - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG, for fine-grained logging config. |
|
|
127 | - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_SHELL, to automatically start |
|
|
128 | a debug shell. |
|
|
129 | - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_WRAP, to automatically enable |
|
|
130 | watcher instrumentation/wrapping (see AnyEvent::Debug::wrap). |
|
|
131 | - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_HOSTS, to override the place where |
|
|
132 | /etc/hosts can be found. |
|
|
133 | - an empty PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF now selects the default |
|
|
134 | configuration. |
|
|
135 | - env variables can now be specified using AE_xyz instead of |
|
|
136 | PERL_ANYEVENT_xyz, subject to some rules. |
|
|
137 | - lots of new AnyEvent::Debug functionality. |
|
|
138 | - AnyEvent::Strict now checks for modifications of $_ by the callback |
|
|
139 | (by setting it to readonly while executing the callback, if possible). |
|
|
140 | - IO::Async sometimes cancels the wrong timer when you call cancel_timer. |
|
|
141 | Invest extra overhead to work around this peculiar behaviour. |
|
|
142 | - split the pure perl backend into a loop module and an impl |
|
|
143 | module (AnyEvent::Loop and AnyEvent::Impl::Perl). |
|
|
144 | - some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could |
|
|
145 | errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own |
|
|
146 | (reported by Mohammad Toossi). |
|
|
147 | - AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr and all functions using it now |
|
|
148 | supports /etc/hosts overrides. |
|
|
149 | - add more workarounds around child watcher bugs in IO::Async |
|
|
150 | and (newly introduced) in POE. |
|
|
151 | - use glib child watchers and try to work around its limitations, |
|
|
152 | if possible (based on a patch by Kevin Ryde). |
|
|
153 | - add support for FLTK (fltk2), via AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2. |
|
|
154 | - many read types in AnyEvent::Handle would malfunction during |
|
|
155 | transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}". |
|
|
156 | (reported by Gerald Galster). |
|
|
157 | - improve condvar blocking wait performance (probably only noticable |
|
|
158 | with faster backends), also make it easier for event loops that |
|
|
159 | do not support blocking waits. |
|
|
160 | - PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL now also allows full module names, although |
|
|
161 | the usefulness of this feature is not yet clear. |
|
|
162 | - add tests for all supported event loops, conditional on PERL_ANYEVENT_LOOP_TESTS. |
|
|
163 | - add t/80_ssltext.t. |
|
|
164 | - no longer use AUTOLOAD for the initial loading (for no very good reason). |
|
|
165 | - tcp_server now tries to unlink unix domain sockets when it gets destroyed. |
|
|
166 | - do not run event loop detection multiple times when programs call their cached |
|
|
167 | copies of AnyEvent::detect. |
|
|
168 | - parse_hostport now accepts absolute paths als unix domain sockets. |
|
|
169 | - suppress the idiotic warning inside POE by patching the POE::Kernel |
|
|
170 | run flags instead of asking the user to jump through contortions. |
|
|
171 | - add Task::Weaken as dependency (as recommends only at this time). |
|
|
172 | - replace PF_UNSPEC by 0, for good old minix. |
|
|
173 | |
|
|
174 | 6.0 (not officially released, but was on CPAN for about 15 minutes :/) |
|
|
175 | |
|
|
176 | 5.34 Thu May 12 09:59:41 CEST 2011 |
|
|
177 | - AE::TLS didn't support both cert_file and key at the same time, |
|
|
178 | due to some copy&paste bug (reported and analyzed by vti). |
|
|
179 | - improve AE::Handle timeout documentation slightly. |
|
|
180 | |
|
|
181 | 5.33 Mon Feb 7 21:51:41 CET 2011 |
|
|
182 | - never appeared on CPAN, for unknown reasons. |
|
|
183 | - AnyEvent::Handle on_connect_error - do not try to destroy a handle |
|
|
184 | object when it's already gone (analyzed by Ryan Bullock). |
|
|
185 | - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0. |
|
|
186 | - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve, |
|
|
187 | uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense. |
|
|
188 | - remove leading dots in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to remove, |
|
|
189 | uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense. |
|
|
190 | - fixed a bug in idn ignored character processing. |
|
|
191 | - passes the uts46 6.0.0 testsuite except for three cases which |
|
|
192 | apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself. |
|
|
193 | - passes the uts46 6.0.1 testsuite except for eleven cases which |
|
|
194 | apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself. |
|
|
195 | |
|
|
196 | 5.31 Sun Jan 23 11:49:19 CET 2011 |
|
|
197 | - work around a POE bug where POE would first poll for new events and |
|
|
198 | invoke handlers BEFORE handling the message queue. |
|
|
199 | - fix parsing of "domain" statement in resolv.conf (Johannes Plunien). |
|
|
200 | - stop_read now does just that in TLS mode. see its |
|
|
201 | documentation for caveats. |
|
|
202 | - update to common::sense 3.4 warning set (some warnings in perl impose |
|
|
203 | an arbitrary 32kb limit on regex matches, which affects |
|
|
204 | AnyEvent::Handle). |
|
|
205 | - AE::Handle had a broken rbuf_max method and missing wbuf_max method. |
|
|
206 | - new experimental AE::Handle::resettls method. |
|
|
207 | |
|
|
208 | 5.3 Fri Dec 31 05:48:13 CET 2010 |
|
|
209 | - major IOAsync patch by Paul Evans - 0.33 is required, as the major |
|
|
210 | issues with IO::Async have been solved in that version, including |
|
|
211 | the availabilty of a default loop! |
|
|
212 | - implement new wbuf_max parameter for AnyEvent::Handle. |
|
|
213 | - added Cocoa::EventLoop backend by Daisuke Murase. |
|
|
214 | - the default testsuite now honors PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL (Paul Evans). |
|
|
215 | - clarify handle on_prepare documentation. |
|
|
216 | - set CLOEXEC flag on parent-side fd's in AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd, |
|
|
217 | to avoid leaking them to any child processes. |
|
|
218 | - try to force files into the arch-dependend lib directory, for the |
|
|
219 | half-"turly obsessive compulsive person"(s) that depend on it. |
|
|
220 | |
|
|
221 | 5.29 Sun Dec 5 10:49:21 CET 2010 |
|
|
222 | - convert EV backend to EV 4.00 API (so better upgrade EV too). |
|
|
223 | - AE::Handle: implement dynamic read_size adjustment, add |
|
|
224 | max_read_size parameter, reduce default read_size to 2048. |
|
|
225 | - add some FAQ entries for servers and/or on_eof vs. on_error. |
|
|
226 | - work around OS bugs (cygwin again) when lingering in AE::Handle. |
|
|
227 | - reduce memory usage slightly when connect was used in AE::Handle. |
|
|
228 | - wrok around more segfaults in Tk. |
|
|
229 | - document tls_ctx => undef as valid. |
|
|
230 | - detect WNOHANG value at compiletime. |
|
|
231 | - include some probably linux-only support for building AnyEvent |
|
|
232 | as part of the perl core. |
|
|
233 | - improve compatibility of t/08_idna.t to perl 5.8. |
|
|
234 | - make AnyEvent::Strict truly optional (in case somebody builds a |
|
|
235 | minimal perl...). |
|
|
236 | |
|
|
237 | 5.28 Wed Oct 13 04:14:23 CEST 2010 |
|
|
238 | - due to a glitch, AnyEvent's internal getprotobyname wasn't |
|
|
239 | actually used in tcp_server. |
|
|
240 | - implement AnyEvent::CondVar->new method, which was documented but |
|
|
241 | missing. |
|
|
242 | - support autoloading of read types in unshift_read. |
|
|
243 | - AnyEvent::Strict: do the test for invalid fh arguments differently, |
|
|
244 | resulting in more informative error messages. |
|
|
245 | - new AnyEvent::FAQ manpage. |
|
|
246 | - clarify that you can actually call push_read etc. in on_read. |
|
|
247 | - put keys and certs in /tmp, not into the current directory, |
|
|
248 | and document this in the SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS sections |
|
|
249 | of AnyEvent::TLS. |
|
|
250 | - support ";" as resolv.conf comment character in AnyEvent::DNS, as |
|
|
251 | requested by Ron Isaacson. |
|
|
252 | - document $AnyEvent::DNS::RESOLVER variable. |
|
|
253 | - incorporated major typo patches by Abhijit Menon-Sen. |
|
|
254 | - AnyEvent::Handle now croaks when negative timeouts are passed. |
|
|
255 | - add a shitload of TCP_xxx sockopt name constants to AnyEvent::Util, |
|
|
256 | undocumented, but who knows when they might come in handy. |
|
|
257 | |
|
|
258 | 5.271 Tue Jun 8 12:05:46 CEST 2010 |
|
|
259 | - backport to perl 5.8.x. |
|
|
260 | |
|
|
261 | 5.27 Sun Jun 6 12:12:05 CEST 2010 |
|
|
262 | - postpone differently in AnyEvent::Socket now, as |
|
|
263 | when not, canceling the connection attempt might fail |
|
|
264 | (found by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann). |
|
|
265 | - explicitly check for non-stream sockets in AE::Handle, too many |
|
|
266 | clueless people fell into the trap of this somehow working. |
|
|
267 | - simplified and reworked the "OTHER MODULES" section. |
|
|
268 | - better/more condvar examples. |
|
|
269 | |
|
|
270 | 5.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010 |
|
|
271 | - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration |
|
|
272 | time (found by Andy Grundman). |
|
|
273 | |
|
|
274 | 5.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010 |
|
|
275 | - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select |
|
|
276 | returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase |
|
|
277 | by Bas Denissen). |
|
|
278 | - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE. |
|
|
279 | - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for |
|
|
280 | EV and Perl backends. |
|
|
281 | - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all |
|
|
282 | backends. |
|
|
283 | - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was |
|
|
284 | never documented nor universally supported). |
|
|
285 | - some more memory µ-optimisations, and somewhat less messy |
|
|
286 | code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs. |
|
|
287 | |
|
|
288 | 5.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010 |
|
|
289 | - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <= |
|
|
290 | 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult, |
|
|
291 | so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time. |
|
|
292 | |
|
|
293 | 5.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010 |
|
|
294 | - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause |
|
|
295 | a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_ |
|
|
296 | ssl connection) after user code threw an exception. |
|
|
297 | - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method. |
|
|
298 | - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6. |
|
|
299 | - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only |
|
|
300 | by lucky accident on win32. |
|
|
301 | - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking. |
|
|
302 | - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent |
|
|
303 | did not fall back to built-in time properly. |
|
|
304 | - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time. |
|
|
305 | - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime |
|
|
306 | detection and eval. |
|
|
307 | - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations. |
|
|
308 | - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved |
|
|
309 | (same algorithm as EV). |
|
|
310 | - update unicode idna mapping table. |
|
|
311 | |
|
|
312 | 5.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010 |
|
|
313 | - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives |
|
|
314 | you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and |
|
|
315 | just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack. |
|
|
316 | - improve idle watcher documentation slightly. |
|
|
317 | |
|
|
318 | 5.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009 |
|
|
319 | - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect. |
|
|
320 | - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep, |
|
|
321 | idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util. |
|
|
322 | - provide $AE::VERSION. |
|
|
323 | - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'". |
|
|
324 | |
|
|
325 | 5.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009 |
|
|
326 | - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to |
|
|
327 | diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly. |
|
|
328 | (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info |
|
|
329 | when passing scalar data to extensions). |
|
|
330 | - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage. |
|
|
331 | - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03. |
|
|
332 | - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS |
|
|
333 | (John Beppu). |
|
|
334 | - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented. |
|
|
335 | - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure |
|
|
336 | we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all |
|
|
337 | fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config. |
|
|
338 | |
|
|
339 | 5.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009 |
|
|
340 | - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters |
|
|
341 | (spotted by David Friedland). |
|
|
342 | - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki). |
|
|
343 | - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work |
|
|
344 | unless you rip out everything but the core). |
|
|
345 | - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32. |
|
|
346 | uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*. |
|
|
347 | |
|
|
348 | 5.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009 |
|
|
349 | - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows |
|
|
350 | (analysed by Matthias Waldorf). |
|
|
351 | - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the |
|
|
352 | newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might |
|
|
353 | sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve). |
|
|
354 | |
|
|
355 | 5.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009 |
|
|
356 | - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken |
|
|
357 | (reported by Torsten Foertsch). |
|
|
358 | - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception |
|
|
359 | (analysed by elmex). |
|
|
360 | |
|
|
361 | 5.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009 |
|
|
362 | - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type |
|
|
363 | and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support |
|
|
364 | package names (the facility was mostly abused). |
|
|
365 | - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in |
|
|
366 | AnyEvent::Handle. |
|
|
367 | - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline". |
|
|
368 | - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues. |
|
|
369 | - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback |
|
|
370 | support (spotted by Pavel Boldin). |
|
|
371 | |
|
|
372 | 5.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009 |
|
|
373 | - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people |
|
|
374 | use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported |
|
|
375 | by Michael S. Fischer). |
|
|
376 | - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0. |
|
|
377 | - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems |
|
|
378 | with large hex constants in the Perl backend. |
|
|
379 | - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS |
|
|
380 | by default. |
|
|
381 | - fix some prototypes. |
|
|
382 | - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02. |
|
|
383 | - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers. |
|
|
384 | |
|
|
385 | 5.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009 |
|
|
386 | - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when |
|
|
387 | using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context. |
|
|
388 | - port to broken win32 perls. |
|
|
389 | |
|
|
390 | 5.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009 |
|
|
391 | - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the |
|
|
392 | kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding |
|
|
393 | sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses |
|
|
394 | the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other |
|
|
395 | OSes as well). |
|
|
396 | |
|
|
397 | 5.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009 |
|
|
398 | - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename. |
|
|
399 | - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction |
|
|
400 | to reduce dependency on JSON. |
|
|
401 | |
|
|
402 | 5.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009 |
|
|
403 | - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated |
|
|
404 | one (was broken since 4.91). |
|
|
405 | - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers |
|
|
406 | when retrying a tcp_connect. |
|
|
407 | - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except. |
|
|
408 | - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket. |
|
|
409 | |
|
|
410 | 5.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009 |
|
|
411 | - last release broke EV child watchers :/. |
|
|
412 | |
|
|
413 | 5.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009 |
|
|
414 | - officially introduce and document the AE API. |
|
|
415 | - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect |
|
|
416 | in AnyEvent::Handle. |
|
|
417 | - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout |
|
|
418 | settings. |
|
|
419 | - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at |
|
|
420 | runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids |
|
|
421 | exporting the probe function). |
|
|
422 | - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation |
|
|
423 | code to work around it's watcher limits. |
|
|
424 | - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects. |
|
|
425 | - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy. |
|
|
426 | - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy. |
|
|
427 | - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend. |
|
|
428 | - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules. |
|
|
429 | |
|
|
430 | 4.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009 |
|
|
431 | - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer |
|
|
432 | already contains some TLS handshake. |
|
|
433 | - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger |
|
|
434 | memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster). |
|
|
435 | - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking |
|
|
436 | the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback. |
|
|
437 | - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API. |
|
|
438 | |
|
|
439 | 4.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009 |
|
|
440 | - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with |
|
|
441 | a negative value, so avoid that. |
|
|
442 | - call condvar callback immediately when it is set |
|
|
443 | after the condition is already signalled. |
|
|
444 | - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume |
|
|
445 | data. |
|
|
446 | - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's |
|
|
447 | signal handling, but do not document this (yet). |
|
|
448 | - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking |
|
|
449 | mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused |
|
|
450 | any issues). |
|
|
451 | - new module: AnyEvent::Debug. |
|
|
452 | - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified |
|
|
453 | by name (not name or number). |
|
|
454 | - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by |
|
|
455 | only compiling signal code when necessary. |
|
|
456 | - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max. |
|
|
457 | - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for |
|
|
458 | said future/alternative API. |
|
|
459 | - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport. |
|
|
460 | |
|
|
461 | 4.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009 |
|
|
462 | - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing |
|
|
463 | AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not |
|
|
464 | (analysed by elmex). |
|
|
465 | |
|
|
466 | 4.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009 |
|
|
467 | - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling |
|
|
468 | AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check |
|
|
469 | for errors after every push_write etc. |
|
|
470 | - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken |
|
|
471 | platforms. |
|
|
472 | |
|
|
473 | 4.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009 |
|
|
474 | - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh. |
|
|
475 | - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply |
|
|
476 | segfault in Net::SSLeay. |
|
|
477 | - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters |
|
|
478 | connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated |
|
|
479 | tutorial accordingly. |
|
|
480 | - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend. |
|
|
481 | |
|
|
482 | 4.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009 |
|
|
483 | - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document |
|
|
484 | that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure. |
|
|
485 | - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib. |
|
|
486 | - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries. |
|
|
487 | - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts. |
|
|
488 | - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness |
|
|
489 | in IO::Async. |
|
|
490 | |
|
|
491 | 4.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009 |

499 | by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules. |
|
|
500 | - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG |
|

502 | - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop. |
|
|
503 | - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement. |
