1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. 1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
2 2
3 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
4 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
5 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
6 (analysed by elmex).
7
85.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
9 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
10 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
11 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
12 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
13 AnyEvent::Handle.
14 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
15 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
16 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
17 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
18
195.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
20 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
21 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
22 by Michael S. Fischer).
23 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
24 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
25 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
26 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
27 by default.
28 - fix some prototypes.
29 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
30 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
31
325.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
33 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
34 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
35 - port to broken win32 perls.
36
375.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
38 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
39 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
40 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
41 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
42 OSes as well).
43
445.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
45 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
46 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
47 to reduce dependency on JSON.
48
495.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
50 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
51 one (was broken since 4.91).
52 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
53 when retrying a tcp_connect.
54 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
55 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
56
575.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
58 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
59
605.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
61 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
62 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
63 in AnyEvent::Handle.
64 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
65 settings.
66 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
67 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
68 exporting the probe function).
69 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
70 code to work around it's watcher limits.
71 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
72 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
73 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
74 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
75 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
76
774.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
78 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
79 already contains some TLS handshake.
80 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
81 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
82 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
83 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
84 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
85
864.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
87 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
88 a negative value, so avoid that.
89 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
90 after the condition is already signalled.
91 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
92 data.
93 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
94 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
95 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
96 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
97 any issues).
98 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
99 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
100 by name (not name or number).
101 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
102 only compiling signal code when necessary.
103 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
104 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
105 said future/alternative API.
106 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
107
1084.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
109 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
110 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
111 (analysed by elmex).
112
1134.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
114 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
115 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
116 for errors after every push_write etc.
117 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
118 platforms.
119
1204.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
121 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
122 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
123 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
124 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
125 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
126 tutorial accordingly.
127 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
128
1294.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
130 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
131 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
132 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
133 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
134 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
135 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
136 in IO::Async.
137
1384.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
139 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
140 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
141 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
142 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
143 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
144 documentation.
145 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
146 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
147 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
148 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
149 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
150 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
151
1524.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
153 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
154 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
155 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
156 this trap.
157 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
158 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
159 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
160 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
161 on_read callbacks.
162 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
163
1644.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
165 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
166 callbacks.
167 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
168 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
169 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
170 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
171 Event::Lib.
172 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
173 to rarely fail.
174
1754.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
176 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
177 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
178 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
179 in AnyEvent->io.
180 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
181 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
182 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
183 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
184 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
185 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
186 portable_socketpair.
187 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
188 YMMV.
189
1904.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009
191 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
192 uppercase targets.
193 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
194 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
195 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
196 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
197 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
198 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
199 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
200 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
201 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
202 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
203 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
204 in the common case.
205 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
206 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
207 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
208 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
209 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
210 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
211 from the constructor.
212 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
213 then fall back to JSON.
214 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
215 and because it was documented that way.
216
2174.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
218 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
219 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
220
2214.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
222 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
223 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
224 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
225 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
226 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
227 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
228 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
229 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
230 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
231
2324.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
233 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
234 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
235 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
236 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
237 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
238
2394.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
240 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
241 and set it on the default resolver.
242 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
243 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
244 when running in tainted mode.
245 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
246
2474.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
248 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
249
2504.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
251 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
252 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
253 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
254 destructors.
255 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
256 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
257 implementation.
258 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
259 for cosmetic reasons.
260
2614.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
262 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
263 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
264 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
265 - sped up Tk timer handling.
266 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
267 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
268 - fix Qt timers without interval.
269 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.
270
2714.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
272 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
273 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
274 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
275
2764.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
277 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
278 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
279 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
280 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
281
2824.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
283 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
284 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
285 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
286 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
287 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
288 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
289 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
290 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
291 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
292 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
293 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
294
2954.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
296 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
297 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
298 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
299 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
300 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
301 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
302 backend.
303 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
304
3054.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
306 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
307 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
308 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
309 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
310 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
311 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
312
3134.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
314 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
315 illegal.
316 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
317 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
318 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
319 by Adam Rosenstein).
320 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
321 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
322 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
323
3244.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
325 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
326 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
327 the socket type.
328 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
329
3304.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
331 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
332 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
333 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
334 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
335 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
336 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
337
3384.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
339 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
340 unless one has been installed already.
341 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
342 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
343 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
344 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
345 client would first wait for some data by the server and
346 otherwise hang. (reported and analysed in an absolutely
347 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
348 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
349 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
350 (reported and analysed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
351 Rosenstein).
352 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
353 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
354 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
355 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
356 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
357 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
358 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
359 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
360 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
361 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
362 now, more to come, though.
363 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
364
3654.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
366 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
367 no trace events.
368 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
369 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
370 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
371 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
372 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
373 Time::HiRes).
374
3754.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
376 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
377 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
378
3794.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
380 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
381 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
382 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
383 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
384
3854.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
386 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
387 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
388 perls without resource leaks or worse).
389
3904.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
391 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
392 the callback.
393 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
394 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
395 eol marker.
396 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
397 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
398 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
399
4004.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
401 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
402 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
403 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
404 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
405 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
406
4074.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
408 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
409 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
410 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
411 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
412 unusable way.
413 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
414 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
415 K. Sharifulin).
416
4174.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
418 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
419 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
420 be delayed under some circumstances.
421 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
422 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
423 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
424 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
425 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
426 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
427
4284.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
429 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
430 assumption that all data could be written before read
431 (reported by Jim Razmus).
432
4334.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
434 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
435 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
436 implementation (also affected child watchers).
437 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
438
4394.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
440 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
441 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
442 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
443
4444.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
445 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
446 works.
447
4484.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
449 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
450 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
451 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
452 for AnyEvent::Handle.
453 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
454 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
455
4564.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
457 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
458 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
459 executing the guard block as warnings.
460 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
461
4624.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
463 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
464 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
465 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
466 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
467 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
468 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
469 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
470 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
471 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
472 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
473 enter an endless loop.
474 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
475 busy again after idling.
476 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
477 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
478 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
479 (hopefully).
480 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
481 away any time.
482
4834.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
484 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
485 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
486 - allow more options in on_error.
487
4884.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008
489 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace ptr by real PTR lookup, provide
490 reverse_lookup and reverse_verify to replace it, support
491 v4mapped and v4compat addresses.
492 - provide more documentation for the resolver class.
493 - really replace longest run of :0: by :: in format_address,
494 also properly convert :: and ::1 again.
495 - support NAPTR record name and decode it.
496 - implement random weight sampling for SRV records, as per
497 rfc 2782.
498 - correctly abort on srv-record targets of ".".
499 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot.
500 - in the unlikely event of a virtual circuit connection
501 being invalidated by a delayed udp reply, AnyEvent::DNS
502 could die. this has been fixed.
503 - plug a probable memleak in the DNS vc code.
504 - use configured timeout also for VC request phase.
505 - implement timeout and max_outstanding methods
506 for resolver class.
507 - update version numbers in all modules.
508
5094.1 Thu May 29 05:45:40 CEST 2008
510 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed xxx_ip functions to xxx_address
511 which mirrors their purpose better (old names still available
512 for a while). Also moved AnyEvent::DNS::addr to
513 AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr.
514 - implement AnyEvent->time and AnyEvent->now.
515 - fix IPv6 support in pack_sockaddr.
516 - officially un-experimentalise all newly introduced code.
517 - support unix domain sockets everywhere by specifying
518 a host of "unix/" and the pathname as service.
519 - implement an activity timeout in AnyEvent::Handle.
520 - added a regex read type to AnyEvent::Handle.
521 - added a json read/write type to AnyEvent::Handle.
522 - always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle.
523 - document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
524 - implement AnyEvent::Util::fork_call.
525 - add support for IPv6 nameservers and nameserver statements.
526 - work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty
527 select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this
528 workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops,
529 but EV also works around this).
530 - supply AnyEvent::Socket::address_type and make good use of it.
531 - clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle
532 vs. callback arguments.
533 - add some recommends to the META.yml.
534
5354.05 Mon May 26 19:44:06 CEST 2008
536 - some platforms ignore the rfc and prepend an extra sa_len member to
537 the sockaddr structure, cater for those. also use sockaddr_family,
538 didn't know it was there, but comes in handy for the workaround.
539 - undo the import WIN32 hack.
540
5414.04 Mon May 26 08:03:31 CEST 2008
542 - try to work around yet another windows bug: failed connects are reported
543 as if it were out-of-band data. windows users: you suck. Only
544 EV, Glib, Event and the pure perl backend can handle this condition.
545 - optimize write algorithm in AnyEvent::Handle.
546 - properly parse PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS and use the info correctly.
547 - tcp_connect now properly iterates through all targets.
548 - check wether IPv6 sockets can actually be created, otherwise, disable ipv6
549 support entirely. also hardcode some AF_INET6 constants for the
550 sake of perl 5.8.
551 - vastly improved nameserver/suffix detection algorithm for windows
552 (still a hack...)
553 - try to use a fallback dns server if no dns servers could be found.
554 - splatter around some local $SIG{__DIE__}'s to work around bad
555 die handlers.
556
5574.03 Sun May 25 05:05:57 CEST 2008
558 - work around perl bugs on windows, where perl returns undocumented
559 error codes for sysread, syswrite etc.
560 - fix AnyEvent::Handle::unshift_read to really unshift and not push.
561 - AnyEvent::Handle could sometimes stumble over 0-byte writes.
562 - fix unpack_sockaddr, now works for AF_INET6 sockaddr's.
563 - updated documentation.
564 - lots of workarounds for perl 5.8 quirks.
565 - implement a more flexible type system for both reads and writes
566 in AnyEvent::Handle.
567 - support IPv6 in tcp_server.
568 - pass local hostname and port to the prepare callback in tcp_server.
569 - make types extendable in AnyEvent::Handle.
570 - croak, not die, in AnyEvent::Handle;
571
5724.0 Sat May 24 19:58:08 CEST 2008
573 - added (experimental) AnyEvent::DNS module.
574 - added (experimental) AnyEvent::Socket module.
575 - added (experiemntal) support for TLS/SSL in AnyEvent::Handle.
576 - make condvar->end call ->send as documented.
577 - make condvar constructor support the documented cb => argument.
578 - overload condvars so you can use them instead of code references.
579 - support more of the POSIX forms instead of a pure dotted quad for
580 verbatim ip addresses.
581 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton will use AnyEvent::DNS now and not fork anymore.
582 - try very hard not to freeze on broken windows perls.
583 - make on_eof optional in AnyEvent::Handle.
584 - support service names in tcp_connect and tcp_server.
585 - work around netbsd/openbsd bug causing unix sockets not to
586 become writable until empty.
3 - only make a dummy read for error detection when getpeername 587 - only make a dummy read for error detection when getpeername
4 returns ENOTCONN. 588 returns ENOTCONN.
5 - defend AnyEvent::Util::inet_aton against Coro::LWP brutal 589 - defend AnyEvent::Util::inet_aton against Coro::LWP's brutal
6 override. 590 override.
591 - new AnyEvent::Guard::cancel.
