1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. 1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
2 2
34.92 3 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
4 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
5 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
6 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
7 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
8 by lucky accident on win32.
9 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
10 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
11 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
12 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
13 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
14 detection and eval.
15 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
16 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
17 (ame algorithm as EV).

195.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
20 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
21 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
22 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
23 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
24
255.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
26 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
27 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
28 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
29 - provide $AE::VERSION.
30 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
31
325.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
33 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
34 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
35 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
36 when passing scalar data to extensions).
37 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
38 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
39 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
40 (John Beppu).
41 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
42 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
43 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
44 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
45
465.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
47 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
48 (spotted by David Friedland).
49 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
50 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
51 unless you rip out everything but the core).
52 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
53 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
54
555.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
56 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
57 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
58 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
59 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
60 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
61
625.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
63 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
64 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
65 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
66 (analysed by elmex).
67
685.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
69 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
70 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
71 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
72 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
73 AnyEvent::Handle.
74 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
75 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
76 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
77 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
78
795.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
80 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
81 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
82 by Michael S. Fischer).
83 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
84 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
85 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
86 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
87 by default.
88 - fix some prototypes.
89 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
90 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
91
925.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
93 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
94 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
95 - port to broken win32 perls.
96
975.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
98 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
99 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
100 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
101 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
102 OSes as well).
103
1045.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
105 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
106 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
107 to reduce dependency on JSON.
108
1095.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
110 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
111 one (was broken since 4.91).
112 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
113 when retrying a tcp_connect.
114 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
115 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
116
1175.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
118 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
119
1205.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
121 - officially introduce and document the AE API.

6 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout 124 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
7 settings. 125 settings.
126 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
127 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
128 exporting the probe function).
129 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
130 code to work around it's watcher limits.
131 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
132 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
133 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
8 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV is the backend. 134 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
135 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
