2 2
35.271 Tue Jun 8 12:05:46 CEST 2010
4 - backport to perl 5.8.x.
5
65.27 Sun Jun 6 12:12:05 CEST 2010
7 - postpone differently in AnyEvent::Socket now, as
8 when not, canceling the connection attempt might fail
9 (found by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
10 - explicitly check for non-stream sockets in AE::Handle, too many
11 clueless people fell into the trap of this somehow working.
12 - simplified and reworked the "OTHER MODULES" section.
13 - better/more condvar examples.
14
155.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010
16 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
17 time (found by Andy Grundman).
18
195.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
20 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
21 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
22 by Bas Denissen).
23 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
24 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
25 EV and Perl backends.
26 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
27 backends.
28 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
29 never documented nor universally supported).
30 - some more memory ยต-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
31 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
32
335.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
34 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
35 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
36 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
37
385.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
39 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
40 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
41 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
42 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
43 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
44 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
45 by lucky accident on win32.
46 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
47 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
48 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
49 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
50 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
51 detection and eval.
52 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
53 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
54 (same algorithm as EV).
55 - update unicode idna mapping table.
56
575.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
58 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
59 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
60 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
61 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
62
635.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
64 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
65 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
66 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
67 - provide $AE::VERSION.
68 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
69
705.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
71 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
72 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
73 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
74 when passing scalar data to extensions).
75 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
76 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
77 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
78 (John Beppu).
79 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
80 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
81 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
82 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
83
845.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
85 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
86 (spotted by David Friedland).
87 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
88 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
89 unless you rip out everything but the core).
90 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
91 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
92
935.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
94 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
95 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
96 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
97 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
98 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
99
1005.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
101 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
102 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
103 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
104 (analysed by elmex).
105
1065.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
107 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
108 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
109 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
110 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
111 AnyEvent::Handle.
112 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
113 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
114 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
115 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
116
1175.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
118 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
119 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
120 by Michael S. Fischer).
121 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
122 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
123 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
124 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
125 by default.
126 - fix some prototypes.
127 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
128 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
129
1305.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
131 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
132 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
133 - port to broken win32 perls.
134
1355.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
136 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
137 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
138 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
139 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
140 OSes as well).
141
1425.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
143 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
144 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
145 to reduce dependency on JSON.
146
1475.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
148 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
149 one (was broken since 4.91).
150 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
151 when retrying a tcp_connect.
152 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
153 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
154
1555.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
156 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
157
1585.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
159 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
3 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect 160 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
4 in AnyEvent::Handle. 161 in AnyEvent::Handle.
162 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
163 settings.
164 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
165 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
166 exporting the probe function).
167 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
168 code to work around it's watcher limits.
169 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
170 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
171 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
5 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV is the backend. 172 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
173 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
