3TODO: document TCP_*** constants
4TODO: catch AE::xxx for anyevent strict and anyevent debug
5TODO: anyevent::trace? or debug tracing all watchers?
6TODO: anyevent strict checking for $_ changes?
7
8 - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0.
9 - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve,
10 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
11 - remove leading dots in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to remove,
12 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
13 - fixed a bug in idn ignored character processing.
14 - passes the uts46 6.0.0 testsuite except for three cases which
15 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
16 - passes the uts46 6.0.1 testsuite except for eleven cases which
17 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
18
195.31 Sun Jan 23 11:49:19 CET 2011
20 - work around a POE bug where POE would first poll for new events and
21 invoke handlers BEFORE handling the message queue.
22 - fix parsing of "domain" statement in resolv.conf (Johannes Plunien).
23 - stop_read now does just that in TLS mode. see its
24 documentation for caveats.
25 - update to common::sense 3.4 warning set (some warnings in perl impose
26 an arbitrary 32kb limit on regex matches, which affects
27 AnyEvent::Handle).
28 - AE::Handle had a broken rbuf_max method and missing wbuf_max method.
29 - new experimental AE::Handle::resettls method.
30
315.3 Fri Dec 31 05:48:13 CET 2010
32 - major IOAsync patch by Paul Evans - 0.33 is required, as the major
33 issues with IO::Async have been solved in that version, including
34 the availabilty of a default loop!
35 - implement new wbuf_max parameter for AnyEvent::Handle.
36 - added Cocoa::EventLoop backend by Daisuke Murase.
37 - the default testsuite now honors PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL (Paul Evans).
38 - clarify handle on_prepare documentation.
39 - set CLOEXEC flag on parent-side fd's in AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd,
40 to avoid leaking them to any child processes.
41 - try to force files into the arch-dependend lib directory, for the
42 half-"turly obsessive compulsive person"(s) that depend on it.
43
445.29 Sun Dec 5 10:49:21 CET 2010
45 - convert EV backend to EV 4.00 API (so better upgrade EV too).
46 - AE::Handle: implement dynamic read_size adjustment, add
47 max_read_size parameter, reduce default read_size to 2048.
48 - add some FAQ entries for servers and/or on_eof vs. on_error.
49 - work around OS bugs (cygwin again) when lingering in AE::Handle.
50 - reduce memory usage slightly when connect was used in AE::Handle.
51 - wrok around more segfaults in Tk.
52 - document tls_ctx => undef as valid.
53 - detect WNOHANG value at compiletime.
54 - include some probably linux-only support for building AnyEvent
55 as part of the perl core.
56 - improve compatibility of t/08_idna.t to perl 5.8.
57 - make AnyEvent::Strict truly optional (in case somebody builds a
58 minimal perl...).
59
605.28 Wed Oct 13 04:14:23 CEST 2010
61 - due to a glitch, AnyEvent's internal getprotobyname wasn't
62 actually used in tcp_server.
63 - implement AnyEvent::CondVar->new method, which was documented but
64 missing.
65 - support autoloading of read types in unshift_read.
66 - AnyEvent::Strict: do the test for invalid fh arguments differently,
67 resulting in more informative error messages.
68 - new AnyEvent::FAQ manpage.
69 - clarify that you can actually call push_read etc. in on_read.
70 - put keys and certs in /tmp, not into the current directory,
71 and document this in the SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS sections
72 of AnyEvent::TLS.
73 - support ";" as resolv.conf comment character in AnyEvent::DNS, as
74 requested by Ron Isaacson.
75 - document $AnyEvent::DNS::RESOLVER variable.
76 - incorporated major typo patches by Abhijit Menon-Sen.
77 - AnyEvent::Handle now croaks when negative timeouts are passed.
78 - add a shitload of TCP_xxx sockopt name constants to AnyEvent::Util,
79 undocumented, but who knows when they might come in handy.
80
815.271 Tue Jun 8 12:05:46 CEST 2010
82 - backport to perl 5.8.x.
83
845.27 Sun Jun 6 12:12:05 CEST 2010
85 - postpone differently in AnyEvent::Socket now, as
86 when not, canceling the connection attempt might fail
87 (found by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
88 - explicitly check for non-stream sockets in AE::Handle, too many
89 clueless people fell into the trap of this somehow working.
90 - simplified and reworked the "OTHER MODULES" section.
91 - better/more condvar examples.
92
935.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010
94 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
95 time (found by Andy Grundman).
96
975.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
98 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
99 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
100 by Bas Denissen).
101 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
102 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
103 EV and Perl backends.
104 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
105 backends.
106 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
107 never documented nor universally supported).
108 - some more memory ยต-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
109 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
110
1115.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
112 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
113 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
114 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
115
1165.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
117 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
118 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
119 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
120 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
121 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
122 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
123 by lucky accident on win32.
124 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
125 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
126 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
127 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
128 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
129 detection and eval.
130 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
131 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
132 (same algorithm as EV).
133 - update unicode idna mapping table.
134
1355.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
136 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
137 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
138 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
139 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
140
1415.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
142 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
143 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
144 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
145 - provide $AE::VERSION.
146 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
147
1485.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
149 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
150 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
151 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
152 when passing scalar data to extensions).
153 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
154 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
155 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
156 (John Beppu).
157 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
158 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
159 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
160 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
161
1625.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
163 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
164 (spotted by David Friedland).
165 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
166 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
167 unless you rip out everything but the core).
168 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
169 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
170
1715.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
172 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
173 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
174 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
175 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
176 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
177
1785.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
179 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
180 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
181 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
182 (analysed by elmex).
183
1845.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
185 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
186 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
187 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
188 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
189 AnyEvent::Handle.
190 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
191 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
192 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
193 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
194
1955.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
196 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
197 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
198 by Michael S. Fischer).
199 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
200 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
201 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
202 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
203 by default.
204 - fix some prototypes.
205 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
206 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
207
2085.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
209 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
210 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
211 - port to broken win32 perls.
212
2135.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
214 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
215 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
216 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
217 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
218 OSes as well).
