3TODO: _AVOID_, _VERBOSE_ 35.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
4 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop. 4 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
5 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
6 by Michael S. Fischer).
7 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
8 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
9 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
10 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
11 by default.
12 - fix some prototypes.
13 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
14 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
15
165.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
17 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
18 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
19 - port to broken win32 perls.
20
215.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
22 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
23 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
24 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
25 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
26 OSes as well).
27
285.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
29 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
30 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
31 to reduce dependency on JSON.
32
335.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
34 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
35 one (was broken since 4.91).
36 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
37 when retrying a tcp_connect.
38 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
39 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
40
415.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
42 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
43
445.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
45 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
46 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
47 in AnyEvent::Handle.
48 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
49 settings.
50 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
51 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
52 exporting the probe function).
53 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
54 code to work around it's watcher limits.
55 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
56 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
57 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
58 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
59 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
60
614.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
62 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
63 already contains some TLS handshake.
64 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
65 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
66 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
67 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
68 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
69
704.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
71 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
72 a negative value, so avoid that.
73 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
74 after the condition is already signalled.
75 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
76 data.
77 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
78 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
79 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
80 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
81 any issues).
82 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
83 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
84 by name (not name or number).
85 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
86 only compiling signal code when necessary.
87 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
88 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
89 said future/alternative API.
90 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
91
924.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
93 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
94 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
95 (analyzed by elmex).
96
974.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
98 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
99 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
100 for errors after every push_write etc.
101 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
102 platforms.
103
1044.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
105 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
106 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
107 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
108 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
109 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
110 tutorial accordingly.
111 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
112
1134.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
114 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
115 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
116 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
117 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
118 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
119 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
120 in IO::Async.
121
1224.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
5 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all 123 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
6 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY). 124 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
7 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available. 125 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
8 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only. 126 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
9 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent 127 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
10 documentation. 128 documentation.
11 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty) 129 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
12 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules. 130 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
13 - work around buggy windows perls and provide EBADMSG and EPROTO 131 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
14 ourselves. 132 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
133 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
134 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
