9 - work around a POE bug where POE would first poll for new events and
10 invoke handlers BEFORE handling the message queue.
11 - fix parsing of "domain" statement in resolv.conf (Johannes Plunien).
12 - stop_read now does just that in TLS mode. see its
13 documentation for caveats.
14 - update to common::sense 3.4 warning set.
15 - AE::Handle had a broken rbuf_max method and missing wbuf_max method.
16
175.3 Fri Dec 31 05:48:13 CET 2010
18 - major IOAsync patch by Paul Evans - 0.33 is required, as the major
19 issues with IO::Async have been solved in that version, including
20 the availabilty of a default loop!
21 - implement new wbuf_max parameter for AnyEvent::Handle.
22 - added Cocoa::EventLoop backend by Daisuke Murase.
23 - the default testsuite now honors PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL (Paul Evans).
24 - clarify handle on_prepare documentation.
25 - set CLOEXEC flag on parent-side fd's in AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd,
26 to avoid leaking them to any child processes.
27 - try to force files into the arch-dependend lib directory, for the
28 half-"turly obsessive compulsive person"(s) that depend on it.
29
305.29 Sun Dec 5 10:49:21 CET 2010
31 - convert EV backend to EV 4.00 API (so better upgrade EV too).
32 - AE::Handle: implement dynamic read_size adjustment, add
33 max_read_size parameter, reduce default read_size to 2048.
34 - add some FAQ entries for servers and/or on_eof vs. on_error.
35 - work around OS bugs (cygwin again) when lingering in AE::Handle.
36 - reduce memory usage slightly when connect was used in AE::Handle.
37 - wrok around more segfaults in Tk.
38 - document tls_ctx => undef as valid.
39 - detect WNOHANG value at compiletime.
40 - include some probably linux-only support for building AnyEvent
41 as part of the perl core.
42 - improve compatibility of t/08_idna.t to perl 5.8.
43 - make AnyEvent::Strict truly optional (in case somebody builds a
44 minimal perl...).
45
465.28 Wed Oct 13 04:14:23 CEST 2010
47 - due to a glitch, AnyEvent's internal getprotobyname wasn't
48 actually used in tcp_server.
49 - implement AnyEvent::CondVar->new method, which was documented but
50 missing.
51 - support autoloading of read types in unshift_read.
52 - AnyEvent::Strict: do the test for invalid fh arguments differently,
53 resulting in more informative error messages.
54 - new AnyEvent::FAQ manpage.
55 - clarify that you can actually call push_read etc. in on_read.
56 - put keys and certs in /tmp, not into the current directory,
57 and document this in the SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS sections
58 of AnyEvent::TLS.
59 - support ";" as resolv.conf comment character in AnyEvent::DNS, as
60 requested by Ron Isaacson.
61 - document $AnyEvent::DNS::RESOLVER variable.
62 - incorporated major typo patches by Abhijit Menon-Sen.
63 - AnyEvent::Handle now croaks when negative timeouts are passed.
64 - add a shitload of TCP_xxx sockopt name constants to AnyEvent::Util,
65 undocumented, but who knows when they might come in handy.
66
675.271 Tue Jun 8 12:05:46 CEST 2010
68 - backport to perl 5.8.x.
69
705.27 Sun Jun 6 12:12:05 CEST 2010
71 - postpone differently in AnyEvent::Socket now, as
72 when not, canceling the connection attempt might fail
73 (found by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
74 - explicitly check for non-stream sockets in AE::Handle, too many
75 clueless people fell into the trap of this somehow working.
76 - simplified and reworked the "OTHER MODULES" section.
77 - better/more condvar examples.
78
795.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010
80 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
81 time (found by Andy Grundman).
82
835.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
84 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
85 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
86 by Bas Denissen).
87 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
88 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
89 EV and Perl backends.
90 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
91 backends.
92 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
93 never documented nor universally supported).
94 - some more memory ยต-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
95 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
96
975.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
98 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
99 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
100 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
101
1025.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
103 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
104 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
105 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
106 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
107 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
108 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
109 by lucky accident on win32.
110 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
111 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
112 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
113 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
114 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
115 detection and eval.
116 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
117 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
118 (same algorithm as EV).
119 - update unicode idna mapping table.
120
1215.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
122 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
123 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
124 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
125 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
126
1275.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
128 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
129 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
130 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
131 - provide $AE::VERSION.
132 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
133
1345.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
135 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
136 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
137 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
138 when passing scalar data to extensions).
139 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
140 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
141 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
142 (John Beppu).
143 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
144 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
145 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
146 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
147
1485.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
149 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
150 (spotted by David Friedland).
151 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
152 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
153 unless you rip out everything but the core).
154 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
155 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
156
1575.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
158 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
159 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
160 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
161 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
162 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
163
1645.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
165 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
166 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
167 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
168 (analysed by elmex).
169
1705.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
171 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
172 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
173 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
174 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
175 AnyEvent::Handle.
176 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
177 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
178 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
179 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
180
1815.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
182 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
183 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
184 by Michael S. Fischer).
185 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
186 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
187 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
188 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
189 by default.
190 - fix some prototypes.
191 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
192 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
193
