3TODO: packagename for ae types
4
5 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
6
75.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
8 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
9 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
10 by Michael S. Fischer).
11 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
12 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
13 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
14 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
15 by default.
16 - fix some prototypes.
17 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
18 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
19
205.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
21 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
22 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
23 - port to broken win32 perls.
24
255.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
26 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
27 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
28 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
29 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
30 OSes as well).
31
325.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
33 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
34 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
35 to reduce dependency on JSON.
36
375.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
38 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
39 one (was broken since 4.91).
40 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
41 when retrying a tcp_connect.
42 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
43 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
44
455.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
46 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
47
485.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
49 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
50 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
51 in AnyEvent::Handle.
52 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
53 settings.
54 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
55 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
56 exporting the probe function).
57 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
58 code to work around it's watcher limits.
59 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
60 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
61 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
62 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
63 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
64
654.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
66 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
67 already contains some TLS handshake.
68 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
69 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
70 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
71 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
72 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
73
744.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
75 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
76 a negative value, so avoid that.
77 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
78 after the condition is already signalled.
79 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
80 data.
81 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
82 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
83 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
84 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
85 any issues).
86 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
87 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
88 by name (not name or number).
89 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
90 only compiling signal code when necessary.
91 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
92 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
93 said future/alternative API.
94 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
95
964.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
97 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
98 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
99 (analyzed by elmex).
100
1014.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
102 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
103 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
104 for errors after every push_write etc.
105 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
106 platforms.
107
1084.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
109 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
110 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
111 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
112 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
113 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
114 tutorial accordingly.
115 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
116
1174.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
118 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
119 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
120 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
121 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
122 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
123 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
124 in IO::Async.
125
1264.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
127 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
128 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
129 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
130 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
131 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
132 documentation.
133 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
134 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
135 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
136 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
137 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
138 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
139
1404.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
141 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
142 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
143 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
144 this trap.
145 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
146 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
147 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
148 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
149 on_read callbacks.
150 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
151
1524.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
153 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
154 callbacks.
3 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names 155 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
4 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX 156 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
5 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/. 157 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
158 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
159 Event::Lib.
160 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
161 to rarely fail.
