13TODO: Daniel Carosone (5.2K) 1 inbox AnyEvent::IO vs AnyEvent::AIO (doc patch)
14TODO: maybe implement env variable to give hosts precedence
15 - uts46data.pl couldn't be found due to wrong naming of the file
16 (reported by Fulko Hew).
17 - AnyEvent::Debug shell can now run coro shell commands, if available.
18 - t/63* tests were wrongly in MANIFEST.
19 - mention IO::AIO as optional dependency.
20 - kernel.org's finger server went MIA, switch to freebsd.org and
21 icculus.org.
22 - handle lone \015's properly in AE::Handle's default line read
23 (reported by various people).
24 - hard-disable $^W in most tests, it generates too much garbage output.
25 - use a (hopefully) more future-proof method to emulate common::sense.
26 - upgrade to UTS-46:6.2.0.
27
287.04 Thu Nov 15 02:23:58 CET 2012
29 - debugging code left in.
30
317.03 Thu Nov 15 02:16:11 CET 2012
32 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton did not work when dns resolution was
33 used to find the addresses (analyzed and patch by Maxime Soulé).
34 - fix a memory leak in the /etc/hosts lookup code when hosts don't
35 resolve and are not in hosts (analyzed by sten).
36
377.02 Tue Aug 14 04:27:58 CEST 2012
38 - AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd could block indefinitely (analyzed and test
39 program by Yorhel).
40 - verified that AnyEvent::Socket follows RFC5952.
41 - try to parse "ADDR#PORT" in addition to "ADDR PORT".
42
437.01 Sun May 13 01:03:17 CEST 2012
44 - fail with EPROTO in AnyEvent::Handle wqhen TLS is requested but
45 not available, instead of throwing an exception.
46 - use File::Spec to get the tmpdir in t/*, to avoid needless
47 failures on (most, not mine :) windows boxes.
48 - new handle read types: tls_detect and tls_autostart.
49
507.0 Fri Apr 13 06:33:30 CEST 2012
51 - child watchers are broken in POE 1.352 (also many earlier
52 versions) and there seems to be no way to work around it, as POE
53 itself is inherently racy. Document this regression and add a delay
54 in t/68_poe_03_child.t for the time being.
55 - new module AnyEvent::IO, that is a frontend to either a pure-perl
56 synchronous I/O implementation (AnyEvent::IO::Perl), or to the
57 asynchronous I/O extension IO::AIO (AnyEvent::IO::IOAIO).
58 - load /etc/hosts only when DNS has no answer.
59 - stat /etc/hosts on every access and reload it if it changed.
60 - load /etc/hosts via AnyEvent::IO - potentially asynchronous.
61 - fix a buggy croak in the dh parameter reading in AnyEvent::TLS.
62 - AnyEvent::Log log_to_file and log_to_path now use AnyEvent::IO. As
63 a side effect, they now use true appending as opposed to libc
64 appending, and the file might not have been opened when the function
65 returns.
66 - the default logging level was not properly documented in a variety of
67 places, this has hopefully been rectified.
68 - updated uts46data.pl for unicode 6.1.0.
69 - made log messages generated by AnyEvent submodules not
70 include the package name anymore, as it will be logged
71 by default already.
72 - upgrade to the trick used by common-sense 3.5 to work
73 around extra warning torture/breakage under perl 5.15.x.
74 - log messages by anyevent are now ucfirst, are usually full
75 sentences and do no longer include the package name.
76 - the storable read type would sometimes throw an exception instead
77 of causing EBADMSG (analyzed by Maxime Soulé).
78 - work around a bug in openssl 1.0.1 which enforces a minimum rsa
79 keysize (reported by Paul Howarth).
80 - documented Rocco fabricating statements about AnyEvent and me.
81
826.14 Tue Jan 31 20:00:24 CET 2012
83 - AnyEvent::Impl::Tk was broken due to a mysterious "die" inside,
84 probably an editing mistake (reported by Darin McBride).
85
866.13 Thu Jan 12 07:27:01 CET 2012
87 - AnyEvent::Util::fork_call checked for POSIX availability in the wrong way,
88 causing it to fail if POSIX wasn't loaded already (analysed by Rock Power).
89 - AnyEvent::Handle::push_read (line => did pass $1 directly, so
90 regex-matching inside the callback would change the parameter, despite
91 $1 being dynamically scoped per-block. this perl bug is now being
92 worked around (testcase by Cindy Wang).
93
946.12 Mon Dec 12 13:21:10 CET 2011
95 - $! was clobbered by subsequent calls in tcp_connect, due to
96 the postpone not saving/restoring it (analyzed by Richard Garnish).
97
986.11 Tue Nov 22 10:36:05 CET 2011
99 - Tk cannot create windows when tainted unless you set a title, so
100 set a dummy title for AnyEvent's dummy mainwindow. How dummy.
101 - escape any nonprintable/nonascii characters when stringifying
102 backtraces.
103 - log the reason loading an interface module fails to load at level debug.
104
1056.1 Tue Oct 4 19:44:30 CEST 2011
106 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the default log level is now "4" (error
107 and above), and some messages inside AnyEvent have been elevated
108 to higher log levels to print by default.
109 - AnyEvent::log, unlike AnyEvent::Log::log, did not always exit on fatal.
110 - work around yet another signal race bug, newly introduced by POE. My
111 how that module sucks.
112 - add google public ipv6 dns as fallback servers, so AE::DNS can finally
113 support ipv6-only operation even with defaults (also use ::1 instead
114 of 127.0.0.1).
115 - give better guidelines on how to chose a logging level.
116 - AnyEvent::Log can now cap (limit) log message priority by context.
117 - AE::log will now save and restore $! and $@, so callers don't have to.
118 - AE::Strict now checks that registered fds are still valid at regular
119 intervals.
120 - skip frequently called 'require' calls if the module appears loaded.
121 - increase signal latency test timer considerably for poor little osx,
122 which can't be bothered with basic posix functionality such as signal
123 delivery.
124 - mention some debugging aids in the tutorial.
125 - new env variable PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY.
126 - private (%namespace) log contexts in PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG now have the name
127 of the context as title.
128 - AnyEvent::Strict would not restore read-write access to $_ when a callback
129 died - this is a user bug, but since AE::Strict exists to help dbeugging...
130 - detect the extremely evil IO::Async::Loop::AnyEvent module and refuse
131 to work with it - the author is well aware of the issues but refuses
132 to fix them. This extreme step has been taken because the module actively
133 attacks the goals of AnyEvent and makes it harder for module authors to use
134 AnyEvent.
135
1366.02 Fri Aug 26 20:08:31 CEST 2011
137 - log_to_syslog now accepts facility strings.
138 - log_to_syslog would not allow facilities - "$facility|$level"
139 *literally* means that string. sheesh.
140 - the CPAN parser got confused and thought we provide Sys::Syslog, try
141 to work around.
142 - renamed AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2 to FLTK.
143
1446.01 Fri Aug 26 07:04:11 CEST 2011
145 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::DNS resource records now include
146 the TTL as fourth element - this affects ->resolve, ->request
147 and ->dns_unpack indirectly. Convenience functions such as
148 AnyEvent::DNS::{a,txt,mx,srv} are not affected, neither is
149 AnyEvent::Socket.
150 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: backend authors now should not implement
151 one_event or loop, but instead the AnyEvent::CondVar::_wait and _poll
152 methods.
153 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: verbosity levels have been redefined, see
154 AnyEvent (PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE) and AnyEvent::Log for details.
155 - DEPRECIATION: please change
156 "use AnyEvent::Impl::Perl" to "use AnyEvent::Loop" and
157 "AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop" to "AnyEvent::Loop::run"
158 in your programs, for future compatibility.
159 - *blush* idle watcher emulation was borked.
160 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks the AE::xxx functions as well.
161 - querying too long domain names would barf deep inside AnyEvent::DNS - since
162 this is hard to avoid for applications, AnyEvent:.DNS::request now checks for
163 for too long domain names explicitly and passes an undef to the callback
164 instead (reported by James Bromberger).
165 - make AnyEvent::Util more robust against EINTR (analyzed by Andrew Suffield).
166 - new functions: AnyEvent::postpone, AnyEvent::log.
167 - new module: AnyEvent::Log, for simple logging needs.
168 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG, for fine-grained logging config.
169 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_SHELL, to automatically start
170 a debug shell.
171 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_WRAP, to automatically enable
172 watcher instrumentation/wrapping (see AnyEvent::Debug::wrap).
173 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_HOSTS, to override the place where
174 /etc/hosts can be found.
175 - an empty PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF now selects the default
176 configuration.
177 - env variables can now be specified using AE_xyz instead of
178 PERL_ANYEVENT_xyz, subject to some rules.
179 - lots of new AnyEvent::Debug functionality.
180 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks for modifications of $_ by the callback
181 (by setting it to readonly while executing the callback, if possible).
182 - IO::Async sometimes cancels the wrong timer when you call cancel_timer.
183 Invest extra overhead to work around this peculiar behaviour.
184 - split the pure perl backend into a loop module and an impl
185 module (AnyEvent::Loop and AnyEvent::Impl::Perl).
186 - some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could
187 errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own
188 (reported by Mohammad Toossi).
189 - AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr and all functions using it now
190 supports /etc/hosts overrides.
191 - add more workarounds around child watcher bugs in IO::Async
192 and (newly introduced) in POE.
193 - use glib child watchers and try to work around its limitations,
194 if possible (based on a patch by Kevin Ryde).
195 - add support for FLTK (fltk2), via AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2.
196 - many read types in AnyEvent::Handle would malfunction during
197 transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}".
198 (reported by Gerald Galster).
199 - improve condvar blocking wait performance (probably only noticable
200 with faster backends), also make it easier for event loops that
201 do not support blocking waits.
202 - PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL now also allows full module names, although
203 the usefulness of this feature is not yet clear.
204 - add tests for all supported event loops, conditional on PERL_ANYEVENT_LOOP_TESTS.
205 - add t/80_ssltext.t.
206 - no longer use AUTOLOAD for the initial loading (for no very good reason).
207 - tcp_server now tries to unlink unix domain sockets when it gets destroyed.
208 - do not run event loop detection multiple times when programs call their cached
209 copies of AnyEvent::detect.
210 - parse_hostport now accepts absolute paths als unix domain sockets.
211 - suppress the idiotic warning inside POE by patching the POE::Kernel
212 run flags instead of asking the user to jump through contortions.
213 - add Task::Weaken as dependency (as recommends only at this time).
214 - replace PF_UNSPEC by 0, for good old minix.
215
2166.0 (not officially released, but was on CPAN for about 15 minutes :/)
217
2185.34 Thu May 12 09:59:41 CEST 2011
219 - AE::TLS didn't support both cert_file and key at the same time,
220 due to some copy&paste bug (reported and analyzed by vti).
221 - improve AE::Handle timeout documentation slightly.
222
2235.33 Mon Feb 7 21:51:41 CET 2011
224 - never appeared on CPAN, for unknown reasons.
225 - AnyEvent::Handle on_connect_error - do not try to destroy a handle
226 object when it's already gone (analyzed by Ryan Bullock).
227 - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0.
228 - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve,
229 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
230 - remove leading dots in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to remove,
231 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
232 - fixed a bug in idn ignored character processing.
233 - passes the uts46 6.0.0 testsuite except for three cases which
234 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
235 - passes the uts46 6.0.1 testsuite except for eleven cases which
236 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
237
2385.31 Sun Jan 23 11:49:19 CET 2011
239 - work around a POE bug where POE would first poll for new events and
240 invoke handlers BEFORE handling the message queue.
241 - fix parsing of "domain" statement in resolv.conf (Johannes Plunien).
242 - stop_read now does just that in TLS mode. see its
243 documentation for caveats.
244 - update to common::sense 3.4 warning set (some warnings in perl impose
245 an arbitrary 32kb limit on regex matches, which affects
246 AnyEvent::Handle).
247 - AE::Handle had a broken rbuf_max method and missing wbuf_max method.
248 - new experimental AE::Handle::resettls method.
249
2505.3 Fri Dec 31 05:48:13 CET 2010
251 - major IOAsync patch by Paul Evans - 0.33 is required, as the major
252 issues with IO::Async have been solved in that version, including
253 the availabilty of a default loop!
254 - implement new wbuf_max parameter for AnyEvent::Handle.
255 - added Cocoa::EventLoop backend by Daisuke Murase.
256 - the default testsuite now honors PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL (Paul Evans).
257 - clarify handle on_prepare documentation.
258 - set CLOEXEC flag on parent-side fd's in AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd,
259 to avoid leaking them to any child processes.
260 - try to force files into the arch-dependend lib directory, for the
261 half-"turly obsessive compulsive person"(s) that depend on it.
262
2635.29 Sun Dec 5 10:49:21 CET 2010
264 - convert EV backend to EV 4.00 API (so better upgrade EV too).
265 - AE::Handle: implement dynamic read_size adjustment, add
266 max_read_size parameter, reduce default read_size to 2048.
267 - add some FAQ entries for servers and/or on_eof vs. on_error.
268 - work around OS bugs (cygwin again) when lingering in AE::Handle.
269 - reduce memory usage slightly when connect was used in AE::Handle.
270 - wrok around more segfaults in Tk.
271 - document tls_ctx => undef as valid.
272 - detect WNOHANG value at compiletime.
273 - include some probably linux-only support for building AnyEvent
274 as part of the perl core.
275 - improve compatibility of t/08_idna.t to perl 5.8.
276 - make AnyEvent::Strict truly optional (in case somebody builds a
277 minimal perl...).
278
2795.28 Wed Oct 13 04:14:23 CEST 2010
280 - due to a glitch, AnyEvent's internal getprotobyname wasn't
281 actually used in tcp_server.
282 - implement AnyEvent::CondVar->new method, which was documented but
283 missing.
284 - support autoloading of read types in unshift_read.
285 - AnyEvent::Strict: do the test for invalid fh arguments differently,
286 resulting in more informative error messages.
287 - new AnyEvent::FAQ manpage.
288 - clarify that you can actually call push_read etc. in on_read.
289 - put keys and certs in /tmp, not into the current directory,
290 and document this in the SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS sections
291 of AnyEvent::TLS.
292 - support ";" as resolv.conf comment character in AnyEvent::DNS, as
293 requested by Ron Isaacson.
294 - document $AnyEvent::DNS::RESOLVER variable.
295 - incorporated major typo patches by Abhijit Menon-Sen.
296 - AnyEvent::Handle now croaks when negative timeouts are passed.
297 - add a shitload of TCP_xxx sockopt name constants to AnyEvent::Util,
298 undocumented, but who knows when they might come in handy.
299
3005.271 Tue Jun 8 12:05:46 CEST 2010
301 - backport to perl 5.8.x.
302
3035.27 Sun Jun 6 12:12:05 CEST 2010
304 - postpone differently in AnyEvent::Socket now, as
305 when not, canceling the connection attempt might fail
306 (found by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
307 - explicitly check for non-stream sockets in AE::Handle, too many
308 clueless people fell into the trap of this somehow working.
309 - simplified and reworked the "OTHER MODULES" section.
310 - better/more condvar examples.
311
3125.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010
313 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
314 time (found by Andy Grundman).
315
3165.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
317 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
318 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
319 by Bas Denissen).
320 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
321 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
322 EV and Perl backends.
323 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
324 backends.
325 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
326 never documented nor universally supported).
327 - some more memory µ-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
328 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
329
3305.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
331 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
332 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
333 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
334
3355.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
336 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
337 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
338 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
339 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
340 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
341 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
342 by lucky accident on win32.
343 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
344 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
345 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
346 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
347 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
348 detection and eval.
349 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
350 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
351 (same algorithm as EV).
352 - update unicode idna mapping table.
353
3545.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
355 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
356 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
357 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
358 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
359
3605.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
361 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
362 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
363 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
364 - provide $AE::VERSION.
365 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
366
3675.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
368 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
369 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
370 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
371 when passing scalar data to extensions).
372 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
373 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
374 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
375 (John Beppu).
376 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
377 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
378 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
379 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
380
3815.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
382 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
383 (spotted by David Friedland).
384 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
385 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
386 unless you rip out everything but the core).
387 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
388 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
389
3905.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
391 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
392 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
393 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
394 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
395 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
396
3975.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
398 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
399 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
400 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
401 (analysed by elmex).
402
4035.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
404 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
405 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
406 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
407 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
408 AnyEvent::Handle.
409 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
410 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
411 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
412 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
413
4145.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
415 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
416 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
417 by Michael S. Fischer).
418 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
419 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
420 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
421 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
422 by default.
423 - fix some prototypes.
424 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
425 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
426
4275.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
428 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
429 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
430 - port to broken win32 perls.
431
4325.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
433 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
434 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
435 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
436 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
437 OSes as well).
438
4395.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
440 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
441 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
442 to reduce dependency on JSON.
443
4445.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
445 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
446 one (was broken since 4.91).
447 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
448 when retrying a tcp_connect.
449 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
450 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
451
4525.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
453 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
454
4555.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
456 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
457 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
458 in AnyEvent::Handle.
459 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
460 settings.
461 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
462 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
463 exporting the probe function).
464 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
465 code to work around it's watcher limits.
466 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
467 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
468 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
469 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
470 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
471
4724.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
473 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
474 already contains some TLS handshake.
475 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
476 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
477 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
478 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
479 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
480
4814.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
482 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
483 a negative value, so avoid that.
484 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
485 after the condition is already signalled.
486 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
487 data.
488 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
489 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
490 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
491 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
492 any issues).
493 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
494 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
495 by name (not name or number).
496 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
497 only compiling signal code when necessary.
498 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
499 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
500 said future/alternative API.
501 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
502
5034.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
504 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
505 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
506 (analysed by elmex).
507

512 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
513 platforms.
