3TODO: docs signal for condvar
4
55.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010
6 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
7 time (found by Andy Grundman).
8
95.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
10 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
11 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
12 by Bas Denissen).
13 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
14 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
15 EV and Perl backends.
16 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
17 backends.
18 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
19 never documented nor universally supported).
20 - some more memory ยต-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
21 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
22
235.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
24 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
25 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
26 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
27
285.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
29 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
30 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
31 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
32 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
33 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
34 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
35 by lucky accident on win32.
36 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
37 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
38 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
39 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
40 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
41 detection and eval.
42 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
43 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
44 (same algorithm as EV).
45 - update unicode idna mapping table.
46
475.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
48 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
49 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
50 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
51 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
52
535.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
54 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
55 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
56 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
57 - provide $AE::VERSION.
58 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
59
605.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
61 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
62 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
63 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
64 when passing scalar data to extensions).
65 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
66 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
67 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
68 (John Beppu).
69 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
70 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
71 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
72 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
73
745.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
75 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
76 (spotted by David Friedland).
77 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
78 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
79 unless you rip out everything but the core).
80 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
81 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
82
835.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
84 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
85 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
86 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
87 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
88 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
89
905.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
91 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
92 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
93 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
94 (analysed by elmex).
95
965.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
97 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
98 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
99 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
100 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
101 AnyEvent::Handle.
102 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
103 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
104 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
105 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
106
1075.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
108 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
109 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
110 by Michael S. Fischer).
111 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
112 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
113 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
114 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
115 by default.
116 - fix some prototypes.
117 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
118 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
119
1205.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
121 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
122 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
123 - port to broken win32 perls.
124
1255.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
126 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
127 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
128 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
129 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
130 OSes as well).
131
1325.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
133 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
134 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
135 to reduce dependency on JSON.
136
1375.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
138 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
139 one (was broken since 4.91).
140 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
141 when retrying a tcp_connect.
142 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
143 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
144
1455.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
146 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
