1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. 1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
2 2
34.801 3 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
4 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
5
65.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
7 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
8 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
9 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
10 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
11 OSes as well).
12
135.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
14 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
15 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
16 to reduce dependency on JSON.
17
185.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
19 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
20 one (was broken since 4.91).
21 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
22 when retrying a tcp_connect.
23 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
24 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
25
265.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
27 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
28
295.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
30 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
31 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
32 in AnyEvent::Handle.
33 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
34 settings.
35 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
36 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
37 exporting the probe function).
38 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
39 code to work around it's watcher limits.
40 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
41 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
42 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
43 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
44 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
45
464.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
47 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
48 already contains some TLS handshake.
49 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
50 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
51 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
52 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
53 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
54
554.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
56 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
57 a negative value, so avoid that.
58 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
59 after the condition is already signalled.
60 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
61 data.
62 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
63 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
64 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
65 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
66 any issues).
67 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
68 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
69 by name (not name or number).
70 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
71 only compiling signal code when necessary.
72 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
73 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
74 said future/alternative API.
75 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
76
774.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
78 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
79 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
80 (analyzed by elmex).
81
824.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
83 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
84 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
85 for errors after every push_write etc.
86 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
87 platforms.
88
894.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
90 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
91 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
92 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
93 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
94 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
95 tutorial accordingly.
96 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
97
984.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
99 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
100 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
101 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
102 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
103 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
104 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
105 in IO::Async.
106
1074.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
108 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
109 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
110 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
111 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
112 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
113 documentation.
114 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
115 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
116 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
117 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
118 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
119 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
120
1214.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
122 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
123 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
124 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
125 this trap.
126 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
127 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
128 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
129 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
130 on_read callbacks.
131 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
132
1334.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
134 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
135 callbacks.
136 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
137 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
138 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
139 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
140 Event::Lib.
141 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
142 to rarely fail.
143
1444.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
145 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
146 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
4 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles 147 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
5 in AnyEvent->io. 148 in AnyEvent->io.
6 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF, 149 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
7 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE 150 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
8 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH. 151 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
9 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS. 152 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
153 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
10 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a 154 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
11 portable_socketpair. 155 portable_socketpair.
156 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
157 YMMV.

15 uppercase targets. 161 uppercase targets.
16 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records 162 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
