3 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
4 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
5 for errors after every push_write etc.

74.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
8 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
9 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
10 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
11 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
12 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
13 tutorial accordingly.
14 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
15
164.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
17 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
18 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
19 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
20 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
21 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
22 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
23 in IO::ASync.
24
254.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
26 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
27 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
28 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
29 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
30 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
31 documentation.
32 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
33 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
34 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
35 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
36 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
37 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
38
394.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
40 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
41 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
42 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
43 this trap.
44 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
45 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
46 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
47 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
48 on_read callbacks.
49 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
50
514.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
52 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
53 callbacks.
54 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
55 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
56 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
57 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
58 Event::Lib.
59 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
60 to rarely fail.
61
624.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
63 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
64 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
65 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
66 in AnyEvent->io.
67 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
68 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
69 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
70 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
71 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
72 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
73 portable_socketpair.
74 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
75 YMMV.
76
774.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009
78 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
79 uppercase targets.
80 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
81 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
82 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
83 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
84 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
85 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
86 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
87 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
88 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
3 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS, 89 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
4 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint 90 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
5 in the common case. 91 in the common case.
92 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
93 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
94 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
95 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
6 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction 96 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
7 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case 97 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
8 from the constructor. 98 from the constructor.
99 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
100 then fall back to JSON.
101 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
102 and because it was documented that way.
103
1044.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
105 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
106 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.

11 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create 109 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
12 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh. 110 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
13 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both 111 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
