6 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
7 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
8 by Bas Denissen).
9 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
10 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
11 EV and Perl backends.
12 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
13 backends.
14 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
15 never documented nor universally supported).
16 - some more memory ยต-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
17 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
18
195.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
20 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
21 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
22 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
23
245.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
25 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
26 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
27 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
28 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
29 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
30 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
31 by lucky accident on win32.
32 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
33 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
34 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
35 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
36 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
37 detection and eval.
38 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
39 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
40 (same algorithm as EV).
41 - update unicode idna mapping table.
42
435.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
44 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
45 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
46 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
47 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
48
495.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
50 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
51 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
52 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
53 - provide $AE::VERSION.
54 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
55
565.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
57 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
58 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
59 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
60 when passing scalar data to extensions).
61 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
62 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
63 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
64 (John Beppu).
65 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
66 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
67 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
68 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
69
705.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
71 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
72 (spotted by David Friedland).
73 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
74 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
75 unless you rip out everything but the core).
76 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
77 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
78
795.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
80 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
81 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
82 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
83 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
84 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
85
865.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
87 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
88 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
89 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
90 (analysed by elmex).
91
925.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
93 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
94 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
95 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
96 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
97 AnyEvent::Handle.
98 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
99 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
100 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
101 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
102
1035.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
104 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
105 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
106 by Michael S. Fischer).
107 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
108 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
109 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
110 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
111 by default.
112 - fix some prototypes.
113 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
114 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
