2 2
3TODO: _AVOID_, _VERBOSE_ 3 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
4 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop. 4 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
5
65.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
7 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
8 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
9 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
10 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
11 AnyEvent::Handle.
12 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
13 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
14 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
15 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
16
175.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
18 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
19 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
20 by Michael S. Fischer).
21 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
22 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
23 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
24 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
25 by default.
26 - fix some prototypes.
27 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
28 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
29
305.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
31 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
32 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
33 - port to broken win32 perls.
34
355.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
36 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
37 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
38 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
39 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
40 OSes as well).
41
425.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
43 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
44 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
45 to reduce dependency on JSON.
46
475.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
48 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
49 one (was broken since 4.91).
50 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
51 when retrying a tcp_connect.
52 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
53 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
54
555.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
56 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
57
585.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
59 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
60 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
61 in AnyEvent::Handle.
62 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
63 settings.
64 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
65 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
66 exporting the probe function).
67 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
68 code to work around it's watcher limits.
69 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
70 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
71 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
72 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
73 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
74
754.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
76 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
77 already contains some TLS handshake.
78 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
79 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
80 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
81 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
82 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
83
844.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
85 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
86 a negative value, so avoid that.
87 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
88 after the condition is already signalled.
89 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
90 data.
91 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
92 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
93 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
94 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
95 any issues).
96 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
97 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
98 by name (not name or number).
99 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
100 only compiling signal code when necessary.
101 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
102 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
103 said future/alternative API.
104 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
105
1064.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
107 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
108 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
109 (analyzed by elmex).
110
1114.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
112 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
113 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
114 for errors after every push_write etc.
115 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
116 platforms.
117
1184.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
119 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
120 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
121 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
122 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
123 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
124 tutorial accordingly.
125 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
126
1274.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
128 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
129 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
130 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
131 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
132 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
133 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
134 in IO::Async.
135
1364.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
5 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all 137 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
6 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY). 138 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
7 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available. 139 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
8 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only. 140 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
9 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent 141 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
10 documentation. 142 documentation.
11 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty) 143 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
12 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules. 144 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
13 - work around buggy windows perls and provide EBADMSG and EPROTO 145 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
14 ourselves. 146 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
147 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
148 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
