3TODO: maybe support "peerip" verificstion, i.e. getpeername diretcly as
4additional peername?

6 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
7 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
8 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
9 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
10 connetc, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error).
11 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
12
134.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
14 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
15 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
16 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
17 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
18 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
19 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
20 in IO::ASync.
21
224.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
23 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
24 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
25 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
26 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
27 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
28 documentation.
29 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
30 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
31 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
32 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
33 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
34 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
35
364.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
37 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
38 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
39 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
40 this trap.
41 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
42 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
43 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
44 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
45 on_read callbacks.
46 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
47
484.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
49 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
50 callbacks.
51 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
52 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
53 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
54 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
55 Event::Lib.
56 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
57 to rarely fail.
58
594.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
60 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
61 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
62 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
63 in AnyEvent->io.
64 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
65 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
66 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
67 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
68 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
69 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
70 portable_socketpair.
71 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
72 YMMV.
73
744.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009
75 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
76 uppercase targets.
77 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
78 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
79 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
80 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
81 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
82 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
83 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
84 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
85 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
3 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS, 86 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
4 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint 87 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
5 in the common case. 88 in the common case.
6 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method. 89 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
7 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's 90 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
8 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available). 91 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
92 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
9 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction 93 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
10 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case 94 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
11 from the constructor. 95 from the constructor.
96 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
97 then fall back to JSON.
98 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
99 and because it was documented that way.

14 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle 102 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
15 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP. 103 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
