4 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
5 a negative value, so avoid that.
6 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
7 data.
8 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
9 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
10 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
11 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
12 any issues).
13 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
14 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
15 by name (not name or number).
16 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
17 only compiling signal code when necessary.
18 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
19 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
20 said future/alternative API.

23 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
24 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
25 (analyzed by elmex).
26
274.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
28 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
29 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
30 for errors after every push_write etc.
31 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
32 platforms.
33
344.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
35 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
36 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
37 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
38 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
39 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
40 tutorial accordingly.
41 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
42
434.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
44 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
45 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
46 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
47 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
48 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
49 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
50 in IO::Async.
51
524.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
53 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
54 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
55 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
56 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
57 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
58 documentation.
59 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
60 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
61 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
62 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
63 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
64 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
65
664.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
67 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
68 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
69 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
70 this trap.
71 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
72 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
73 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
74 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
75 on_read callbacks.
76 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
77
784.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
79 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
80 callbacks.
81 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
82 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
83 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
84 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
85 Event::Lib.
86 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
87 to rarely fail.
88
894.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
90 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
91 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
92 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
93 in AnyEvent->io.
3 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF, 94 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
4 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE 95 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
5 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH. 96 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
6 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS. 97 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
98 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
99 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
100 portable_socketpair.
101 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
102 YMMV.

9 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with 105 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
10 uppercase targets. 106 uppercase targets.
11 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records 107 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
