1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. 1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
2 2
33.51 3 - provide $AE::VERSION.
4 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
5
65.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
7 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
8 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
9 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
10 when passing scalar data to extensions).
11 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
12 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
13 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
14 (John Beppu).
15 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
16 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
17 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
18 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
19
205.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
21 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
22 (spotted by David Friedland).
23 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
24 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
25 unless you rip out everything but the core).
26 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
27 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
28
295.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
30 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
31 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
32 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
33 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
34 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
35
365.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
37 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
38 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
39 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
40 (analysed by elmex).
41
425.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
43 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
44 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
45 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
46 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
47 AnyEvent::Handle.
48 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
49 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
50 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
51 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
52
535.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
54 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
55 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
56 by Michael S. Fischer).
57 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
58 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
59 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
60 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
61 by default.
62 - fix some prototypes.
63 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
64 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
65
665.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
67 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
68 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
69 - port to broken win32 perls.
70
715.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
72 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
73 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
74 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
75 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
76 OSes as well).
77
785.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
79 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
80 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
81 to reduce dependency on JSON.
82
835.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
84 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
85 one (was broken since 4.91).
86 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
87 when retrying a tcp_connect.
88 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
89 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
90
915.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
92 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
93
945.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
95 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
96 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
97 in AnyEvent::Handle.
98 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
99 settings.
100 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
101 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
102 exporting the probe function).
103 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
104 code to work around it's watcher limits.
105 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
106 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
107 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
108 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
109 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
110
1114.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
112 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
113 already contains some TLS handshake.
114 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
115 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
116 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
117 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
118 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
119
1204.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
121 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
122 a negative value, so avoid that.
123 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
124 after the condition is already signalled.
125 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
126 data.
127 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
128 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
129 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
130 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
131 any issues).
132 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
133 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
134 by name (not name or number).
135 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
136 only compiling signal code when necessary.
137 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
138 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
139 said future/alternative API.
140 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
141
1424.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
143 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
144 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
145 (analysed by elmex).
146
1474.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
148 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
149 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
150 for errors after every push_write etc.
151 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
152 platforms.
153
1544.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
155 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
156 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
157 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
158 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
159 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
160 tutorial accordingly.
161 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
162
1634.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
164 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
165 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
166 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
167 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
168 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
169 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
170 in IO::Async.
171
1724.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
173 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
174 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
175 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
176 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
177 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
178 documentation.
179 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
180 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
181 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
182 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
183 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
184 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
185
1864.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
187 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
188 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
189 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
190 this trap.
191 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
192 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
193 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
194 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
195 on_read callbacks.
196 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
197
1984.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
199 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
200 callbacks.
201 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
202 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
203 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
204 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
205 Event::Lib.
206 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
207 to rarely fail.
208
2094.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
210 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
211 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
212 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
213 in AnyEvent->io.
214 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
215 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
216 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
217 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
218 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
219 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
220 portable_socketpair.
221 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
222 YMMV.
223
2244.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009
225 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
226 uppercase targets.
227 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
228 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
229 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
230 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
231 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
232 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
233 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
234 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
235 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
236 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
237 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
238 in the common case.
239 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
240 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
241 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
242 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
243 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
244 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
245 from the constructor.
246 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
247 then fall back to JSON.
248 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
249 and because it was documented that way.
250
2514.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
252 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
253 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
254
2554.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
256 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
257 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
258 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
259 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
260 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
261 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
262 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
263 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
264 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
265
2664.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
267 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
268 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
269 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
270 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
271 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
272
2734.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
274 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
275 and set it on the default resolver.
276 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
277 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
278 when running in tainted mode.
279 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
280
2814.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
282 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
283
2844.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
285 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
286 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
287 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
288 destructors.
289 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
290 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
291 implementation.
292 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
293 for cosmetic reasons.
294
2954.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
296 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
297 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
298 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
299 - sped up Tk timer handling.
300 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
301 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
302 - fix Qt timers without interval.
303 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.
304
3054.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
306 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
307 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
308 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
309
3104.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
311 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
312 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
313 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
314 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
315
3164.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
317 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
318 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
319 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
320 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
321 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
322 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
323 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
324 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
325 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
326 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
327 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
328
3294.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
330 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
331 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
332 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
333 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
334 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
335 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
336 backend.
337 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
338
3394.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
340 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
341 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
342 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
343 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
344 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
345 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
346
3474.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
348 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
349 illegal.
350 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
351 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
352 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
353 by Adam Rosenstein).
354 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
355 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
356 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
357
3584.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
359 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
360 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
361 the socket type.
362 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
363
3644.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
365 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
366 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
367 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
368 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
369 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
370 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
371
3724.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
373 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
374 unless one has been installed already.
375 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
376 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
377 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
378 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
379 client would first wait for some data by the server and
380 otherwise hang. (reported and analysed in an absolutely
381 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
382 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
383 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
384 (reported and analysed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
385 Rosenstein).
386 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
387 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
388 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
389 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
390 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
391 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
392 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
393 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
394 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
395 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
396 now, more to come, though.
397 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
398
3994.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
400 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
401 no trace events.
402 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
403 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
404 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
405 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
406 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
407 Time::HiRes).
408
4094.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
410 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
411 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
412
4134.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
414 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
415 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
416 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
417 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
418
4194.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
420 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
421 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
422 perls without resource leaks or worse).
423
4244.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
425 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
426 the callback.
427 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
428 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
429 eol marker.
430 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
431 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
432 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
433
4344.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
435 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
436 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
437 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
438 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
439 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
440
4414.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
442 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
443 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
444 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
445 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
446 unusable way.
447 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
448 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
449 K. Sharifulin).
450
4514.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
452 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
453 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
454 be delayed under some circumstances.
455 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
456 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
457 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
458 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
459 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
460 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.

4624.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
463 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
464 assumption that all data could be written before read
465 (reported by Jim Razmus).
466
4674.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
468 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
469 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
470 implementation (also affected child watchers).
471 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
472
4734.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
474 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
475 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
476 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
477
4784.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
479 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
480 works.
481
4824.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
483 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
484 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
485 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
486 for AnyEvent::Handle.
487 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
488 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
489
4904.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
491 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
492 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
493 executing the guard block as warnings.
494 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
495
4964.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
497 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
498 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
499 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
500 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
501 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
502 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
503 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
504 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
505 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
506 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
507 enter an endless loop.
508 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
509 busy again after idling.
510 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
511 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
512 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
513 (hopefully).
514 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
515 away any time.
516
5174.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
518 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
519 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
520 - allow more options in on_error.
521
5224.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008
523 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace ptr by real PTR lookup, provide
524 reverse_lookup and reverse_verify to replace it, support
525 v4mapped and v4compat addresses.
526 - provide more documentation for the resolver class.
527 - really replace longest run of :0: by :: in format_address,
528 also properly convert :: and ::1 again.
529 - support NAPTR record name and decode it.
530 - implement random weight sampling for SRV records, as per
531 rfc 2782.
532 - correctly abort on srv-record targets of ".".
533 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot.
534 - in the unlikely event of a virtual circuit connection
535 being invalidated by a delayed udp reply, AnyEvent::DNS
536 could die. this has been fixed.
537 - plug a probable memleak in the DNS vc code.
538 - use configured timeout also for VC request phase.
539 - implement timeout and max_outstanding methods
540 for resolver class.
541 - update version numbers in all modules.
542
5434.1 Thu May 29 05:45:40 CEST 2008
544 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed xxx_ip functions to xxx_address
545 which mirrors their purpose better (old names still available
546 for a while). Also moved AnyEvent::DNS::addr to
547 AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr.
548 - implement AnyEvent->time and AnyEvent->now.
549 - fix IPv6 support in pack_sockaddr.
550 - officially un-experimentalise all newly introduced code.
551 - support unix domain sockets everywhere by specifying
552 a host of "unix/" and the pathname as service.
553 - implement an activity timeout in AnyEvent::Handle.
554 - added a regex read type to AnyEvent::Handle.
555 - added a json read/write type to AnyEvent::Handle.
556 - always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle.
557 - document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
558 - implement AnyEvent::Util::fork_call.
559 - add support for IPv6 nameservers and nameserver statements.
560 - work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty
561 select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this
562 workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops,
563 but EV also works around this).
564 - supply AnyEvent::Socket::address_type and make good use of it.
565 - clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle
566 vs. callback arguments.
567 - add some recommends to the META.yml.
568
5694.05 Mon May 26 19:44:06 CEST 2008
570 - some platforms ignore the rfc and prepend an extra sa_len member to
571 the sockaddr structure, cater for those. also use sockaddr_family,
572 didn't know it was there, but comes in handy for the workaround.
573 - undo the import WIN32 hack.
574
5754.04 Mon May 26 08:03:31 CEST 2008
576 - try to work around yet another windows bug: failed connects are reported
577 as if it were out-of-band data. windows users: you suck. Only
578 EV, Glib, Event and the pure perl backend can handle this condition.
579 - optimize write algorithm in AnyEvent::Handle.
580 - properly parse PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS and use the info correctly.
581 - tcp_connect now properly iterates through all targets.
582 - check wether IPv6 sockets can actually be created, otherwise, disable ipv6
583 support entirely. also hardcode some AF_INET6 constants for the
584 sake of perl 5.8.
585 - vastly improved nameserver/suffix detection algorithm for windows
586 (still a hack...)
587 - try to use a fallback dns server if no dns servers could be found.
588 - splatter around some local $SIG{__DIE__}'s to work around bad
589 die handlers.
590
5914.03 Sun May 25 05:05:57 CEST 2008
592 - work around perl bugs on windows, where perl returns undocumented
593 error codes for sysread, syswrite etc.
594 - fix AnyEvent::Handle::unshift_read to really unshift and not push.
595 - AnyEvent::Handle could sometimes stumble over 0-byte writes.
596 - fix unpack_sockaddr, now works for AF_INET6 sockaddr's.
597 - updated documentation.
598 - lots of workarounds for perl 5.8 quirks.
599 - implement a more flexible type system for both reads and writes
600 in AnyEvent::Handle.
601 - support IPv6 in tcp_server.
602 - pass local hostname and port to the prepare callback in tcp_server.
603 - make types extendable in AnyEvent::Handle.
604 - croak, not die, in AnyEvent::Handle;
605

4 - added (experimental) AnyEvent::DNS module. 607 - added (experimental) AnyEvent::DNS module.
608 - added (experimental) AnyEvent::Socket module.
609 - added (experiemntal) support for TLS/SSL in AnyEvent::Handle.
610 - make condvar->end call ->send as documented.
611 - make condvar constructor support the documented cb => argument.
612 - overload condvars so you can use them instead of code references.
613 - support more of the POSIX forms instead of a pure dotted quad for
614 verbatim ip addresses.
615 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton will use AnyEvent::DNS now and not fork anymore.
616 - try very hard not to freeze on broken windows perls.
617 - make on_eof optional in AnyEvent::Handle.
5 - support service names in tcp_connect and tcp_server. 618 - support service names in tcp_connect and tcp_server.
6 - work around netbsd/openbsd bug causing unix sockets not to 619 - work around netbsd/openbsd bug causing unix sockets not to
7 become writable untill empty. 620 become writable until empty.
8 - only make a dummy read for error detection when getpeername 621 - only make a dummy read for error detection when getpeername
9 returns ENOTCONN. 622 returns ENOTCONN.
10 - defend AnyEvent::Util::inet_aton against Coro::LWP brutal 623 - defend AnyEvent::Util::inet_aton against Coro::LWP's brutal
11 override. 624 override.

133.5 Sat May 17 23:17:14 CEST 2008 6273.5 Sat May 17 23:17:14 CEST 2008
14 - gracefully deal with systems not defining CLOCK_MONOTONIC 628 - gracefully deal with systems not defining CLOCK_MONOTONIC
15 (as opposed to not supporting the clock itself, which worked in 3.41). 629 (as opposed to not supporting the clock itself, which worked in 3.41).
