3TODO: Event seems to have some racy signal handling. 35.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
4 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
5 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
6 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
7 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
8 AnyEvent::Handle.
9 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
10 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
11 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
12 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).

145.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
15 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
16 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
17 by Michael S. Fischer).
18 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
19 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
20 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
21 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
22 by default.
23 - fix some prototypes.
24 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
25 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
26
275.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
28 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
29 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
30 - port to broken win32 perls.
31
325.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
33 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
34 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
35 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
36 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
37 OSes as well).
38
395.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
40 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
41 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
42 to reduce dependency on JSON.
43
445.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
45 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
46 one (was broken since 4.91).
47 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
48 when retrying a tcp_connect.
49 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
50 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
51
525.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
53 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
54
555.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
56 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
57 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
58 in AnyEvent::Handle.
59 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
60 settings.
61 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
62 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
63 exporting the probe function).
64 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
65 code to work around it's watcher limits.
66 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
67 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
68 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
69 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
70 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
71
724.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
73 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
74 already contains some TLS handshake.
75 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
76 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
77 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
78 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
79 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
80
814.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
82 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
83 a negative value, so avoid that.
84 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
85 after the condition is already signalled.
86 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
87 data.
88 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
89 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
90 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
91 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
92 any issues).
93 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
94 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
95 by name (not name or number).
96 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
97 only compiling signal code when necessary.
98 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
99 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
100 said future/alternative API.
101 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
102
1034.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
104 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
105 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
106 (analyzed by elmex).
107
1084.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
109 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
110 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
111 for errors after every push_write etc.
112 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
113 platforms.
114
1154.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
116 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
117 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
118 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
119 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
120 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
121 tutorial accordingly.
122 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
123
1244.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
125 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
126 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
5 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib. 127 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
128 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
129 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
6 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness 130 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
7 in IO::ASync. 131 in IO::Async.
8 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.

104.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009 1334.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
11 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all 134 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
12 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY). 135 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
13 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available. 136 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
