147.14
15 - fix a crash bug in AnyEvent::Handle with openssl 1.1.0 (patched
16 by Paul Howarth and apparently tracked down by Mike McCauley).
17 - AnyEvent::Handle->keepalive was documented (and defined) twice
18 (found by Matt Merhar).
19 - AnyEvent::Socket::tcp_bind/tcp_server would immediately unlink a unix
20 listening socket unless a guard is used. Change this so that no
21 cleanup will be performed unless a guard is used and document this more
22 clearly.
23 - make tcp_bind/tcp_server error messages more regular.
24 - work around latest perl upstream breakage - this time, perl5porters were
25 apparently bullied by a bogus CVE (CVE-2016-1238), and since distros
26 stupidly apply anything that has "security fix" stamped on it, it's likely
27 going to be a problem in practise (and working around it is trivial on
28 windows and unix).
29 - add TCP_FASTOPEN/MSG_FASTOPEN and MSG_NOSIGNAL/MSG_MORE/MSG_DONTWAIT
30 to constants.
31 - update warnings to common::sense 3.74 standards.
32
337.13 Sat Sep 17 04:31:49 CEST 2016
34 - Only call tlsext_host_name for non-empty common names (reported
35 by Maxime Soulé).
36 - log a (single) notice message if SNI is not supported.
37 - upgrade to UTS-46:9.0.0 draft and switch to non-transitional
38 behaviour, beating thunderbird, ie, edge, chrome and safari to it :)
39 (see also https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1218179)
40 - turns out the UTS-46 IDNA testcase failures were indeed bugs in the
41 testcases and the specification and not in the code - the post-9.0.0
42 unicode files have all known problems fixed, so finally the AnyEvent
43 IDNA implementation can pass the full IDNA testsuite - without needing
44 a single fix :)
45 - guarantee (and document) that condvar callbacks will be removed
46 on invocation - important to avoid circular references.
47
487.12 Wed Jan 27 19:12:26 CET 2016
49 - use common name as hostname for tls connects, if Net::SSLeay
50 supports SNI.
51 - fix documentation of tls_autostart read type in AnyEvent::Handle,
52 analyzed by Felix Ostmann.
53
547.11 Thu Jul 16 14:36:00 CEST 2015
55 - AnyEvent::Socket::parse_ipv6 could accept malformed ipv6
56 addresses (extra "::" at end and similar cases).
57 - add a more explicit warning to AnyEvent::Handle that it doesn't
58 work on files, people keep getting confused.
59 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::tcp_bind.
60 - new functions AnyEvent::fh_block and AnyEvent::fh_unblock.
61 - aligned ipv6 address formatting with RFC 5952 (by not shortening
62 a single :0: to ::).
63 - added stability canary support.
64
657.09 Sat May 2 16:38:53 CEST 2015
66 - AnyEvent::Debug called an internal function (AnyEvent::Log::ft)
67 that was renamed to AnyEvent::Log:format_time. uinder its old name
68 (analyzed by Michael Stovenour).
69 - update AnyEvent::DNS fallback resolver addresses:
70 seems google effectively killed most other free dns resolvers,
71 so remove them, but add cable and wireless (ecrc) since it was
72 stable for 20 years or so, official or not, and there should be
73 an alternative to google.
74 - perl5porters broke windows error codes in 5.20, and mapped
75 WSAEWOULDBLOCK on the (different) EWOULDBLOCK error code, and
76 WSAEINPROGRESS into the incompatible ERINPROGRESS code, probably
77 because they were so cool. They probably broke other error codes
78 for no reason, too, but I didn't care for checking, it's too
79 depressing. This version only works around the WSAEWOULDBLOCK
80 issue, because I don't have a nice way to work around the
81 WSAEINPROGRESS bug.
82
837.08 Wed Dec 10 05:27:17 CET 2014
84 - work around a newly introduced bug in Socket 2.011 (an
85 errornous sun_length check) (analyzed by Maxime Soulé).
86 - AnyEvent::TLS didn't load (but refer to) AnyEvent::Socket
87 (analyzed by Ben Magistro).
88 - AnyEvent::Strict will now confess, not croak. This is in line with
89 it being a development/debugging tool.
90 - work around a number of libglib bugs (debug builds of libglib enforce
91 certain undocumented behaviour patterns such as not being able to
92 remove a child watch source after it has fired, which we will try
93 to emulate to avoid "criticals". what where they thinking...).
94 - mention json security issues in AnyEvent::Handle, now that Douglas
95 Crockford has foolishly and incompatibly changed JSON.
96 - changed default dns resolver "max_outstanding" value from 1 to 10,
97 the latter beinfg the intended value all along
98 (reported by Ilya Chesnokov).
99 - added new "AnyEvent::Impl::UV" interface module to the UV event lib
100 (written by Mike Lowell).
101
1027.07 Tue Dec 17 17:45:02 CET 2013
103 - the documentation for custom tls verify schemes was wrong. make it agree
104 with the code (reported by Maxime Soulé).
105 - added cbor read and write types to AnyEvent::Handle (using CBOR::XS).
106 - work around an API change in openssl that could cause wrong tls connection
107 aborts, likely on windows only (analyzed by sten).
108 - calling AnyEvent->now_update with AnyEvent::Impl::Perl caused an
109 endless loop (reported by Dietrich Rebmann).
110 - add tlsv1_1 and tlsv1_2 protocols to AnyEvent::TLS
111 (patch by Maxime Soulé).
112 - document AnyEvent::Impl::IOAsync::set_loop and
113 $AnyEvent::Impl::IOAsync::LOOP. Though only documented now, this
114 functionality has _always_ been available.
115 - force a toplevel domain name in t/81_hosts.t (analyzed by
116 David Jack Wange Olrik).
117 - document that AnyEvent::Log uses AnyEvent::IO.
118 - warn about AnyEvent::Filesys::Notify performance.
119 - praise the joys of AnyEvent::Fork::*.
120 - time for an =encoding directive.
121 - do no longer use JSON to create a default json coder, use
122 JSON::XS or JSON::PP directly.
123
1247.05 Wed Aug 21 10:38:08 CEST 2013
125 - uts46data.pl couldn't be found due to wrong naming of the file
126 (reported by Fulko Hew).
127 - handle lone \015's properly in AE::Handle's default line read
128 (reported by various people).
129 - untaint ip addresses found in /etc/hosts (patch by José Micó).
130 - the memleak fix in 7.03 caused resolving via /etc/hosts to always
131 fail on first use (reported and testcase by Andrew Whatson).
132 - expose AnyEvent::Log::format_time, and allow users to redefine it.
133 - expose AnyEvent::Log::default_format, and allow redefinition.
134 - expose AnyEvent::Log::fatal_exit, to allow redefinition.
135 - AnyEvent::Debug shell can now run coro shell commands, if available.
136 - t/63* tests were wrongly in MANIFEST.
137 - kernel.org's finger server went MIA, switch to freebsd.org and
138 icculus.org.
139 - clarify that IO::AIO and AnyEvent::AIO are needed for AnyEvent::IO
140 to function asynchronously (reported by Daniel Carosone).
141 - hard-disable $^W in most tests, it generates too much garbage output.
142 - use a (hopefully) more future-proof method to emulate common::sense.
143 - upgrade to UTS-46:6.2.0.
144 - switch to INSTLIB from INSTLIBDIR, as INSTLIBDIR was wrongly
145 documented. should not affect anything.
146
1477.04 Thu Nov 15 02:23:58 CET 2012
148 - debugging code left in.
149
1507.03 Thu Nov 15 02:16:11 CET 2012
151 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton did not work when dns resolution was
152 used to find the addresses (analyzed and patch by Maxime Soulé).
153 - fix a memory leak in the /etc/hosts lookup code when hosts don't
154 resolve and are not in hosts (analyzed by sten).
155
1567.02 Tue Aug 14 04:27:58 CEST 2012
157 - AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd could block indefinitely (analyzed and test
158 program by Yorhel).
159 - verified that AnyEvent::Socket follows RFC5952.
160 - try to parse "ADDR#PORT" in addition to "ADDR PORT".
161
1627.01 Sun May 13 01:03:17 CEST 2012
163 - fail with EPROTO in AnyEvent::Handle wqhen TLS is requested but
164 not available, instead of throwing an exception.
165 - use File::Spec to get the tmpdir in t/*, to avoid needless
166 failures on (most, not mine :) windows boxes.
167 - new handle read types: tls_detect and tls_autostart.
168
1697.0 Fri Apr 13 06:33:30 CEST 2012
170 - child watchers are broken in POE 1.352 (also many earlier
171 versions) and there seems to be no way to work around it, as POE
172 itself is inherently racy. Document this regression and add a delay
173 in t/68_poe_03_child.t for the time being.
174 - new module AnyEvent::IO, that is a frontend to either a pure-perl
175 synchronous I/O implementation (AnyEvent::IO::Perl), or to the
176 asynchronous I/O extension IO::AIO (AnyEvent::IO::IOAIO).
177 - load /etc/hosts only when DNS has no answer.
178 - stat /etc/hosts on every access and reload it if it changed.
179 - load /etc/hosts via AnyEvent::IO - potentially asynchronous.
180 - fix a buggy croak in the dh parameter reading in AnyEvent::TLS.
181 - AnyEvent::Log log_to_file and log_to_path now use AnyEvent::IO. As
182 a side effect, they now use true appending as opposed to libc
183 appending, and the file might not have been opened when the function
184 returns.
185 - the default logging level was not properly documented in a variety of
186 places, this has hopefully been rectified.
187 - updated uts46data.pl for unicode 6.1.0.
188 - made log messages generated by AnyEvent submodules not
189 include the package name anymore, as it will be logged
190 by default already.
191 - upgrade to the trick used by common-sense 3.5 to work
192 around extra warning torture/breakage under perl 5.15.x.
193 - log messages by anyevent are now ucfirst, are usually full
194 sentences and do no longer include the package name.
195 - the storable read type would sometimes throw an exception instead
196 of causing EBADMSG (analyzed by Maxime Soulé).
197 - work around a bug in openssl 1.0.1 which enforces a minimum rsa
198 keysize (reported by Paul Howarth).
199 - documented Rocco fabricating statements about AnyEvent and me.
200
2016.14 Tue Jan 31 20:00:24 CET 2012
202 - AnyEvent::Impl::Tk was broken due to a mysterious "die" inside,
203 probably an editing mistake (reported by Darin McBride).
204
2056.13 Thu Jan 12 07:27:01 CET 2012
206 - AnyEvent::Util::fork_call checked for POSIX availability in the wrong way,
207 causing it to fail if POSIX wasn't loaded already (analysed by Rock Power).
208 - AnyEvent::Handle::push_read (line => did pass $1 directly, so
209 regex-matching inside the callback would change the parameter, despite
210 $1 being dynamically scoped per-block. this perl bug is now being
211 worked around (testcase by Cindy Wang).
212
2136.12 Mon Dec 12 13:21:10 CET 2011
214 - $! was clobbered by subsequent calls in tcp_connect, due to
215 the postpone not saving/restoring it (analyzed by Richard Garnish).
216
2176.11 Tue Nov 22 10:36:05 CET 2011
218 - Tk cannot create windows when tainted unless you set a title, so
219 set a dummy title for AnyEvent's dummy mainwindow. How dummy.
220 - escape any nonprintable/nonascii characters when stringifying
221 backtraces.
222 - log the reason loading an interface module fails to load at level debug.
223
2246.1 Tue Oct 4 19:44:30 CEST 2011
225 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the default log level is now "4" (error
226 and above), and some messages inside AnyEvent have been elevated
227 to higher log levels to print by default.
228 - AnyEvent::log, unlike AnyEvent::Log::log, did not always exit on fatal.
229 - work around yet another signal race bug, newly introduced by POE. My
230 how that module sucks.
231 - add google public ipv6 dns as fallback servers, so AE::DNS can finally
232 support ipv6-only operation even with defaults (also use ::1 instead
233 of 127.0.0.1).
234 - give better guidelines on how to chose a logging level.
235 - AnyEvent::Log can now cap (limit) log message priority by context.
236 - AE::log will now save and restore $! and $@, so callers don't have to.
237 - AE::Strict now checks that registered fds are still valid at regular
238 intervals.
239 - skip frequently called 'require' calls if the module appears loaded.
240 - increase signal latency test timer considerably for poor little osx,
241 which can't be bothered with basic posix functionality such as signal
242 delivery.
243 - mention some debugging aids in the tutorial.
244 - new env variable PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY.
245 - private (%namespace) log contexts in PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG now have the name
246 of the context as title.
247 - AnyEvent::Strict would not restore read-write access to $_ when a callback
248 died - this is a user bug, but since AE::Strict exists to help dbeugging...
249 - detect the extremely evil IO::Async::Loop::AnyEvent module and refuse
250 to work with it - the author is well aware of the issues but refuses
251 to fix them. This extreme step has been taken because the module actively
252 attacks the goals of AnyEvent and makes it harder for module authors to use
253 AnyEvent.
254
2556.02 Fri Aug 26 20:08:31 CEST 2011
256 - log_to_syslog now accepts facility strings.
257 - log_to_syslog would not allow facilities - "$facility|$level"
258 *literally* means that string. sheesh.
259 - the CPAN parser got confused and thought we provide Sys::Syslog, try
260 to work around.
261 - renamed AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2 to FLTK.
262
2636.01 Fri Aug 26 07:04:11 CEST 2011
264 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::DNS resource records now include
265 the TTL as fourth element - this affects ->resolve, ->request
266 and ->dns_unpack indirectly. Convenience functions such as
267 AnyEvent::DNS::{a,txt,mx,srv} are not affected, neither is
268 AnyEvent::Socket.
269 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: backend authors now should not implement
270 one_event or loop, but instead the AnyEvent::CondVar::_wait and _poll
271 methods.
272 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: verbosity levels have been redefined, see
273 AnyEvent (PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE) and AnyEvent::Log for details.
274 - DEPRECIATION: please change
275 "use AnyEvent::Impl::Perl" to "use AnyEvent::Loop" and
276 "AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop" to "AnyEvent::Loop::run"
277 in your programs, for future compatibility.
278 - *blush* idle watcher emulation was borked.
279 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks the AE::xxx functions as well.
280 - querying too long domain names would barf deep inside AnyEvent::DNS - since
281 this is hard to avoid for applications, AnyEvent:.DNS::request now checks for
282 for too long domain names explicitly and passes an undef to the callback
283 instead (reported by James Bromberger).
284 - make AnyEvent::Util more robust against EINTR (analyzed by Andrew Suffield).
285 - new functions: AnyEvent::postpone, AnyEvent::log.
286 - new module: AnyEvent::Log, for simple logging needs.
287 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG, for fine-grained logging config.
288 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_SHELL, to automatically start
289 a debug shell.
290 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_WRAP, to automatically enable
291 watcher instrumentation/wrapping (see AnyEvent::Debug::wrap).
292 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_HOSTS, to override the place where
293 /etc/hosts can be found.
294 - an empty PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF now selects the default
295 configuration.
296 - env variables can now be specified using AE_xyz instead of
297 PERL_ANYEVENT_xyz, subject to some rules.
298 - lots of new AnyEvent::Debug functionality.
299 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks for modifications of $_ by the callback
300 (by setting it to readonly while executing the callback, if possible).
301 - IO::Async sometimes cancels the wrong timer when you call cancel_timer.
302 Invest extra overhead to work around this peculiar behaviour.
303 - split the pure perl backend into a loop module and an impl
304 module (AnyEvent::Loop and AnyEvent::Impl::Perl).
305 - some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could
306 errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own
307 (reported by Mohammad Toossi).
308 - AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr and all functions using it now
309 supports /etc/hosts overrides.
310 - add more workarounds around child watcher bugs in IO::Async
311 and (newly introduced) in POE.
312 - use glib child watchers and try to work around its limitations,
313 if possible (based on a patch by Kevin Ryde).
314 - add support for FLTK (fltk2), via AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2.
315 - many read types in AnyEvent::Handle would malfunction during
316 transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}".
317 (reported by Gerald Galster).
318 - improve condvar blocking wait performance (probably only noticable
319 with faster backends), also make it easier for event loops that
320 do not support blocking waits.
321 - PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL now also allows full module names, although
322 the usefulness of this feature is not yet clear.
323 - add tests for all supported event loops, conditional on PERL_ANYEVENT_LOOP_TESTS.
324 - add t/80_ssltext.t.
325 - no longer use AUTOLOAD for the initial loading (for no very good reason).
326 - tcp_server now tries to unlink unix domain sockets when it gets destroyed.
327 - do not run event loop detection multiple times when programs call their cached
328 copies of AnyEvent::detect.
329 - parse_hostport now accepts absolute paths als unix domain sockets.
330 - suppress the idiotic warning inside POE by patching the POE::Kernel
331 run flags instead of asking the user to jump through contortions.
332 - add Task::Weaken as dependency (as recommends only at this time).
333 - replace PF_UNSPEC by 0, for good old minix.
334
3356.0 (not officially released, but was on CPAN for about 15 minutes :/)
336
3375.34 Thu May 12 09:59:41 CEST 2011
338 - AE::TLS didn't support both cert_file and key at the same time,
339 due to some copy&paste bug (reported and analyzed by vti).
340 - improve AE::Handle timeout documentation slightly.
341
3425.33 Mon Feb 7 21:51:41 CET 2011
343 - never appeared on CPAN, for unknown reasons.
344 - AnyEvent::Handle on_connect_error - do not try to destroy a handle
345 object when it's already gone (analyzed by Ryan Bullock).
346 - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0.
347 - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve,
348 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
349 - remove leading dots in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to remove,
350 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
351 - fixed a bug in idn ignored character processing.
352 - passes the uts46 6.0.0 testsuite except for three cases which
353 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
354 - passes the uts46 6.0.1 testsuite except for eleven cases which
355 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
356
3575.31 Sun Jan 23 11:49:19 CET 2011
358 - work around a POE bug where POE would first poll for new events and
359 invoke handlers BEFORE handling the message queue.
360 - fix parsing of "domain" statement in resolv.conf (Johannes Plunien).
361 - stop_read now does just that in TLS mode. see its
362 documentation for caveats.
363 - update to common::sense 3.4 warning set (some warnings in perl impose
364 an arbitrary 32kb limit on regex matches, which affects
365 AnyEvent::Handle).
366 - AE::Handle had a broken rbuf_max method and missing wbuf_max method.
367 - new experimental AE::Handle::resettls method.
368
3695.3 Fri Dec 31 05:48:13 CET 2010
370 - major IOAsync patch by Paul Evans - 0.33 is required, as the major
371 issues with IO::Async have been solved in that version, including
372 the availabilty of a default loop!
373 - implement new wbuf_max parameter for AnyEvent::Handle.
374 - added Cocoa::EventLoop backend by Daisuke Murase.
375 - the default testsuite now honors PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL (Paul Evans).
376 - clarify handle on_prepare documentation.
377 - set CLOEXEC flag on parent-side fd's in AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd,
378 to avoid leaking them to any child processes.
379 - try to force files into the arch-dependend lib directory, for the
380 half-"turly obsessive compulsive person"(s) that depend on it.
381
3825.29 Sun Dec 5 10:49:21 CET 2010
383 - convert EV backend to EV 4.00 API (so better upgrade EV too).
384 - AE::Handle: implement dynamic read_size adjustment, add
385 max_read_size parameter, reduce default read_size to 2048.
386 - add some FAQ entries for servers and/or on_eof vs. on_error.
387 - work around OS bugs (cygwin again) when lingering in AE::Handle.
388 - reduce memory usage slightly when connect was used in AE::Handle.
389 - wrok around more segfaults in Tk.
390 - document tls_ctx => undef as valid.
391 - detect WNOHANG value at compiletime.
392 - include some probably linux-only support for building AnyEvent
393 as part of the perl core.
394 - improve compatibility of t/08_idna.t to perl 5.8.
395 - make AnyEvent::Strict truly optional (in case somebody builds a
396 minimal perl...).
397
3985.28 Wed Oct 13 04:14:23 CEST 2010
399 - due to a glitch, AnyEvent's internal getprotobyname wasn't
400 actually used in tcp_server.
401 - implement AnyEvent::CondVar->new method, which was documented but
402 missing.
403 - support autoloading of read types in unshift_read.
404 - AnyEvent::Strict: do the test for invalid fh arguments differently,
405 resulting in more informative error messages.
406 - new AnyEvent::FAQ manpage.
407 - clarify that you can actually call push_read etc. in on_read.
408 - put keys and certs in /tmp, not into the current directory,
409 and document this in the SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS sections
410 of AnyEvent::TLS.
411 - support ";" as resolv.conf comment character in AnyEvent::DNS, as
412 requested by Ron Isaacson.
413 - document $AnyEvent::DNS::RESOLVER variable.
414 - incorporated major typo patches by Abhijit Menon-Sen.
415 - AnyEvent::Handle now croaks when negative timeouts are passed.
416 - add a shitload of TCP_xxx sockopt name constants to AnyEvent::Util,
417 undocumented, but who knows when they might come in handy.
418
4195.271 Tue Jun 8 12:05:46 CEST 2010
420 - backport to perl 5.8.x.
421
4225.27 Sun Jun 6 12:12:05 CEST 2010
423 - postpone differently in AnyEvent::Socket now, as
424 when not, canceling the connection attempt might fail
425 (found by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
426 - explicitly check for non-stream sockets in AE::Handle, too many
427 clueless people fell into the trap of this somehow working.
428 - simplified and reworked the "OTHER MODULES" section.
429 - better/more condvar examples.
430
4315.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010
432 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
433 time (found by Andy Grundman).
434
4355.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
436 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
437 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
438 by Bas Denissen).
439 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
440 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
441 EV and Perl backends.
442 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
443 backends.
444 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
445 never documented nor universally supported).
446 - some more memory µ-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
447 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
448
4495.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
450 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
451 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
452 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
453
4545.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
455 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
456 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
457 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
458 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
459 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
460 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
461 by lucky accident on win32.
462 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
463 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
464 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
465 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
466 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
467 detection and eval.
468 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
469 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
470 (same algorithm as EV).
471 - update unicode idna mapping table.
472
4735.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
474 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
475 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
476 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
477 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
478
4795.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
480 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
481 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
482 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
483 - provide $AE::VERSION.
484 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
485
4865.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
487 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
488 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
489 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
490 when passing scalar data to extensions).
491 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
492 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
493 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
494 (John Beppu).
495 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
496 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
497 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
498 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
499
5005.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
501 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
502 (spotted by David Friedland).
503 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
504 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
505 unless you rip out everything but the core).
506 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
507 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
508
5095.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
510 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
511 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
3 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the 512 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
4 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might 513 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
