2 2
34.0 3TODO: packagename for ae types
4
5 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
6 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
7
85.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
9 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
10 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
11 by Michael S. Fischer).
12 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
13 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
14 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
15 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
16 by default.
17 - fix some prototypes.
18 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
19 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
20
215.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
22 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
23 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
24 - port to broken win32 perls.
25
265.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
27 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
28 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
29 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
30 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
31 OSes as well).
32
335.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
34 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
35 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
36 to reduce dependency on JSON.
37
385.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
39 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
40 one (was broken since 4.91).
41 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
42 when retrying a tcp_connect.
43 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
44 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
45
465.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
47 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
48
495.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
50 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
51 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
52 in AnyEvent::Handle.
53 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
54 settings.
55 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
56 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
57 exporting the probe function).
58 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
59 code to work around it's watcher limits.
60 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
61 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
62 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
63 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
64 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
65
664.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
67 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
68 already contains some TLS handshake.
69 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
70 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
71 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
72 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
73 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
74
754.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
76 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
77 a negative value, so avoid that.
78 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
79 after the condition is already signalled.
80 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
81 data.
82 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
83 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
84 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
85 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
86 any issues).
87 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
88 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
89 by name (not name or number).
90 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
91 only compiling signal code when necessary.
92 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
93 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
94 said future/alternative API.
95 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
96
974.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
98 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
99 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
100 (analyzed by elmex).
101
1024.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
103 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
104 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
105 for errors after every push_write etc.
106 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
107 platforms.
108
1094.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
110 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
111 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
112 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
113 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
114 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
115 tutorial accordingly.
116 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
117
1184.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
119 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
120 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
121 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
122 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
123 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
124 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
125 in IO::Async.
126
1274.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
128 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
129 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
130 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
131 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
132 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
133 documentation.
134 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
135 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
136 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
137 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
138 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
139 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
140
1414.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
142 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
143 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
144 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
145 this trap.
146 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
147 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
148 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
149 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
150 on_read callbacks.
151 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
152
1534.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
154 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
155 callbacks.
156 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
157 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
158 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
159 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
160 Event::Lib.
161 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
162 to rarely fail.
163
1644.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
165 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
166 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
167 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
168 in AnyEvent->io.
169 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
170 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
171 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
172 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
173 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
174 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
175 portable_socketpair.
176 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
177 YMMV.
178
1794.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009
180 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
181 uppercase targets.
182 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
183 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
184 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
185 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
186 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
187 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
188 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
189 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
190 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
191 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
192 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
193 in the common case.
194 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
195 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
196 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
197 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
198 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
199 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
200 from the constructor.
201 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
202 then fall back to JSON.
203 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
204 and because it was documented that way.
205
2064.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
207 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
208 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
209
2104.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
211 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
212 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
213 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
214 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
215 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
216 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
217 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
218 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
219 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
220
2214.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
222 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
223 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
224 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
225 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
226 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
227
2284.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
229 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
230 and set it on the default resolver.
231 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
232 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
233 when running in tainted mode.
234 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
235
2364.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
237 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
238
2394.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
240 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
241 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
242 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
243 destructors.
244 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
245 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
246 implementation.
247 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
248 for cosmetic reasons.
249
2504.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
251 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
252 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
253 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
254 - sped up Tk timer handling.
255 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
256 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
257 - fix Qt timers without interval.
258 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.
259
2604.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
261 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
262 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
263 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
264
2654.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
266 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
267 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
268 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
269 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
270
2714.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
272 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
273 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
274 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
275 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
276 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
277 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
278 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
279 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
280 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
281 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
282 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
283
2844.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
285 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
286 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
287 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
288 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
289 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
290 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
291 backend.
292 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
293
2944.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
295 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
296 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
297 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
298 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
299 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
300 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
301
3024.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
303 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
304 illegal.
305 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
306 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
307 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
308 by Adam Rosenstein).
309 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
310 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
311 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
312
3134.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
314 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
315 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
316 the socket type.
317 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
318
3194.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
320 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
321 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
322 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
323 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
324 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
325 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
326
3274.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
328 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
329 unless one has been installed already.
330 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
331 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
332 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
333 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
334 client would first wait for some data by the server and
335 otherwise hang. (reported and analyzed in an absolutely
336 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
337 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
338 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
339 (reported and analyzed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
340 Rosenstein).
341 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
342 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
343 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
344 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
345 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
346 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
347 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
348 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
349 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
350 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
351 now, more to come, though.
352 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
353
3544.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
355 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
356 no trace events.
357 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
358 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
359 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
360 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
361 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
362 Time::HiRes).
363
3644.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
365 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
366 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
367
3684.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
369 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
370 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
371 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
372 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
373
3744.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
375 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
376 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
377 perls without resource leaks or worse).
378
3794.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
380 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
381 the callback.
382 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
383 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
384 eol marker.
385 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
386 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
387 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
388
3894.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
390 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
391 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
392 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
393 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
394 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
395
3964.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
397 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
398 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
399 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
400 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
401 unusable way.
402 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
403 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
404 K. Sharifulin).
405
4064.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
407 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
408 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
409 be delayed under some circumstances.
410 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
411 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
412 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
413 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
414 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
415 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
416
4174.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
418 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
419 assumption that all data could be written before read
420 (reported by Jim Razmus).
421
4224.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
423 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
424 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
425 implementation (also affected child watchers).
426 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
427
4284.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
429 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
430 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
431 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
432
4334.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
434 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
435 works.
436
4374.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
438 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
439 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
440 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
441 for AnyEvent::Handle.
442 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
443 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
444
4454.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
446 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
447 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
448 executing the guard block as warnings.
449 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
450
4514.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
452 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
453 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
454 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
455 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
456 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
457 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
458 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
459 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
460 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
461 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
462 enter an endless loop.
463 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
464 busy again after idling.
465 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
466 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
467 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
468 (hopefully).
469 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
470 away any time.
471
4724.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
473 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
474 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
475 - allow more options in on_error.
476
4774.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008
478 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace ptr by real PTR lookup, provide
479 reverse_lookup and reverse_verify to replace it, support
480 v4mapped and v4compat addresses.
481 - provide more documentation for the resolver class.
482 - really replace longest run of :0: by :: in format_address,
483 also properly convert :: and ::1 again.
484 - support NAPTR record name and decode it.
485 - implement random weight sampling for SRV records, as per
486 rfc 2782.
487 - correctly abort on srv-record targets of ".".
488 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot.
489 - in the unlikely event of a virtual circuit connection
490 being invalidated by a delayed udp reply, AnyEvent::DNS
491 could die. this has been fixed.
492 - plug a probable memleak in the DNS vc code.
493 - use configured timeout also for VC request phase.
494 - implement timeout and max_outstanding methods
495 for resolver class.
496 - update version numbers in all modules.
497
4984.1 Thu May 29 05:45:40 CEST 2008
499 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed xxx_ip functions to xxx_address
500 which mirrors their purpose better (old names still available
501 for a while). Also moved AnyEvent::DNS::addr to
502 AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr.
503 - implement AnyEvent->time and AnyEvent->now.
504 - fix IPv6 support in pack_sockaddr.
505 - officially un-experimentalise all newly introduced code.
506 - support unix domain sockets everywhere by specifying
507 a host of "unix/" and the pathname as service.
508 - implement an activity timeout in AnyEvent::Handle.
509 - added a regex read type to AnyEvent::Handle.
510 - added a json read/write type to AnyEvent::Handle.
511 - always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle.
512 - document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
513 - implement AnyEvent::Util::fork_call.
514 - add support for IPv6 nameservers and nameserver statements.
515 - work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty
516 select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this
517 workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops,
518 but EV also works around this).
519 - supply AnyEvent::Socket::address_type and make good use of it.
520 - clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle
521 vs. callback arguments.
522 - add some recommends to the META.yml.
523
5244.05 Mon May 26 19:44:06 CEST 2008
525 - some platforms ignore the rfc and prepend an extra sa_len member to
526 the sockaddr structure, cater for those. also use sockaddr_family,
527 didn't know it was there, but comes in handy for the workaround.
528 - undo the import WIN32 hack.
529
5304.04 Mon May 26 08:03:31 CEST 2008
531 - try to work around yet another windows bug: failed connects are reported
532 as if it were out-of-band data. windows users: you suck. Only
533 EV, Glib, Event and the pure perl backend can handle this condition.
534 - optimize write algorithm in AnyEvent::Handle.
535 - properly parse PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS and use the info correctly.
536 - tcp_connect now properly iterates through all targets.
537 - check wether IPv6 sockets can actually be created, otherwise, disable ipv6
538 support entirely. also hardcode some AF_INET6 constants for the
539 sake of perl 5.8.
540 - vastly improved nameserver/suffix detection algorithm for windows
541 (still a hack...)
542 - try to use a fallback dns server if no dns servers could be found.
543 - splatter around some local $SIG{__DIE__}'s to work around bad
544 die handlers.
545
5464.03 Sun May 25 05:05:57 CEST 2008
547 - work around perl bugs on windows, where perl returns undocumented
548 error codes for sysread, syswrite etc.
549 - fix AnyEvent::Handle::unshift_read to really unshift and not push.
550 - AnyEvent::Handle could sometimes stumble over 0-byte writes.
551 - fix unpack_sockaddr, now works for AF_INET6 sockaddr's.
552 - updated documentation.
553 - lots of workarounds for perl 5.8 quirks.
554 - implement a more flexible type system for both reads and writes
555 in AnyEvent::Handle.
556 - support IPv6 in tcp_server.
557 - pass local hostname and port to the prepare callback in tcp_server.
558 - make types extendable in AnyEvent::Handle.
559 - croak, not die, in AnyEvent::Handle;
560
