1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. 1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
2
3 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
4 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
5 by Bas Denissen).
6
75.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
8 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
9 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
10 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
11
125.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
13 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
14 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
15 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
16 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
17 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
18 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
19 by lucky accident on win32.
20 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
21 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
22 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
23 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
24 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
25 detection and eval.
26 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
27 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
28 (same algorithm as EV).
29 - update unicode idna mapping table.
30
315.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
32 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
33 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
34 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
35 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
36
375.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
38 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
39 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
40 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
41 - provide $AE::VERSION.
42 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
43
445.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
45 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
46 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
47 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
48 when passing scalar data to extensions).
49 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
50 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
51 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
52 (John Beppu).
53 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
54 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
55 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
56 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
57
585.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
59 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
60 (spotted by David Friedland).
61 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
62 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
63 unless you rip out everything but the core).
64 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
65 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
66
675.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
68 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
69 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
70 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
71 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
72 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
73
745.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
75 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
76 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
77 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
78 (analysed by elmex).
79
805.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
81 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
82 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
83 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
84 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
85 AnyEvent::Handle.
86 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
87 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
88 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
89 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
90
915.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
92 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
93 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
94 by Michael S. Fischer).
95 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
96 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
97 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
98 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
99 by default.
100 - fix some prototypes.
101 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
102 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
103
1045.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
105 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
106 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
107 - port to broken win32 perls.
108
1095.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
110 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
111 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
112 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
113 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
114 OSes as well).
115
1165.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
117 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
118 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
119 to reduce dependency on JSON.
120
1215.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
122 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
123 one (was broken since 4.91).
124 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
125 when retrying a tcp_connect.
126 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
127 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
128
1295.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
130 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
131
1325.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
133 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
134 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
135 in AnyEvent::Handle.
136 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
137 settings.
138 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
139 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
140 exporting the probe function).
141 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
142 code to work around it's watcher limits.
143 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
144 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
145 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
146 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
147 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
148
1494.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
150 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
151 already contains some TLS handshake.
152 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
153 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
154 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
155 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
156 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
157
1584.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
159 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
160 a negative value, so avoid that.
161 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
162 after the condition is already signalled.
163 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
164 data.
165 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
166 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
167 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
168 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
169 any issues).
170 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
171 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
172 by name (not name or number).
173 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
174 only compiling signal code when necessary.
175 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
176 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
177 said future/alternative API.
178 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
179
1804.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
181 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
182 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
183 (analysed by elmex).
184
1854.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
186 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
187 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
188 for errors after every push_write etc.
189 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
190 platforms.

34.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009 1924.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
4 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh. 193 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
5 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply 194 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
6 segfault in Net::SSLeay. 195 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
14 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure. 203 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
15 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib. 204 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
16 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries. 205 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
17 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts. 206 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
18 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness 207 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
