| 3 | ZERO_RETURN - stoptls? |
3 | TODO: _AVOID_, _VERBOSE_ |
|
|
4 | - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop. |
|
|
5 | - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all |
|
|
6 | (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY). |
|
|
7 | - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available. |
|
|
8 | - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only. |
|
|
9 | - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent |
|
|
10 | documentation. |
|
|
11 | - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty) |
|
|
12 | by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules. |
|
|
13 | - work around buggy windows perls and provide EBADMSG and EPROTO |
|
|
14 | ourselves. |

|
|
17 | - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname. |
|
|
18 | - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking |
|
|
19 | waits and will croak, as too many people fall into |
|
|
20 | this trap. |
|
|
21 | - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after |
|
|
22 | executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some |
|
|
23 | half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors. |
|
|
24 | - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and |
|
|
25 | on_read callbacks. |
|
|
26 | - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect. |
|
|
27 | |

28 | 4.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009 |
|
|
29 | - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as |
|
|
30 | callbacks. |
|
|
31 | - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names |
|
|
32 | in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX |
|
|
33 | module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/. |
|
|
34 | - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in |
|
|
35 | Event::Lib. |
|
|
36 | - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t |
|
|
37 | to rarely fail. |
|
|
38 | |
|
|
39 | 4.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009 |
|
|
40 | - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors |
|
|
41 | (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :). |
|
|
42 | - support file descriptors in addition to file handles |
|
|
43 | in AnyEvent->io. |
|
|
44 | - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF, |
|
|
45 | PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE |
|
|
46 | and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH. |
|
|
47 | - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS. |
|
|
48 | - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage. |
|
|
49 | - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a |
|
|
50 | portable_socketpair. |
|
|
51 | - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend, |
|
|
52 | YMMV. |
|
|
