5 - postpone differently in AnyEvent::Socket now, as
6 when not, canceling the connection attempt might fail
7 (found by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
8 - explicitly check for non-stream sockets in AE::Handle, too many
9 clueless people fell into the trap of this somehow working.
10 - simplified and reworked the "OTHER MODULES" section.
11
125.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010
13 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
14 time (found by Andy Grundman).
15
165.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
17 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
18 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
19 by Bas Denissen).
20 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
21 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
22 EV and Perl backends.
23 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
24 backends.
25 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
26 never documented nor universally supported).
27 - some more memory ยต-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
28 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
29
305.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
31 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
32 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
33 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
34
355.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
36 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
37 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
38 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
39 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
40 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
41 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
42 by lucky accident on win32.
43 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
44 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
45 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
46 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
47 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
48 detection and eval.
49 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
50 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
51 (same algorithm as EV).
52 - update unicode idna mapping table.
53
545.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
55 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
56 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
57 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
58 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
59
605.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
61 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
62 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
63 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
64 - provide $AE::VERSION.
65 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
66
675.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
68 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
69 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
70 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
71 when passing scalar data to extensions).
72 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
73 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
74 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
75 (John Beppu).
76 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
77 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
78 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
79 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
80
815.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
82 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
83 (spotted by David Friedland).
84 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
85 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
86 unless you rip out everything but the core).
87 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
88 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
89
905.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
91 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
92 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
93 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
94 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
95 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
96
975.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
98 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
99 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
100 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
101 (analysed by elmex).
102
1035.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
104 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
105 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
106 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
107 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
108 AnyEvent::Handle.
5 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline". 109 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
6 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues. 110 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
111 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
112 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
