3TODO: maybe support "peerip" verificstion, i.e. getpeername diretcly as 3 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
4additional peername?

55.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
6 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
7 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
8 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
9 - provide $AE::VERSION.
10 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
11
125.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
13 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
14 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
15 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
16 when passing scalar data to extensions).
17 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
18 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
19 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
20 (John Beppu).
21 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
22 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
23 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
24 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
25
265.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
27 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
28 (spotted by David Friedland).
29 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
30 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
31 unless you rip out everything but the core).
32 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
33 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
34
355.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
36 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
37 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
38 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
39 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
40 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
41
425.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
43 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
44 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
45 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
46 (analysed by elmex).
47
485.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
49 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
50 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
51 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
52 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
53 AnyEvent::Handle.
54 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
55 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
56 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
57 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
58
595.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
60 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
61 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
62 by Michael S. Fischer).
63 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
64 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
65 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
66 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
67 by default.
68 - fix some prototypes.
69 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
70 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
71
725.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
73 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
74 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
75 - port to broken win32 perls.
76
775.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
78 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
79 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
80 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
81 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
82 OSes as well).
83
845.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
85 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
86 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
87 to reduce dependency on JSON.
88
895.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
90 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
91 one (was broken since 4.91).
92 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
93 when retrying a tcp_connect.
94 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
95 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
96
975.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
98 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
99
1005.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
101 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
102 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
103 in AnyEvent::Handle.
104 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
105 settings.
106 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
107 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
108 exporting the probe function).
109 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
110 code to work around it's watcher limits.
111 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
112 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
113 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
114 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
115 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
116
1174.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
118 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
119 already contains some TLS handshake.
120 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
121 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
122 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
123 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
124 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
125
1264.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
127 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
128 a negative value, so avoid that.
129 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
130 after the condition is already signalled.
131 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
132 data.
133 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
134 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
135 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
136 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
137 any issues).
138 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
139 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
140 by name (not name or number).
141 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
142 only compiling signal code when necessary.
143 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
144 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
145 said future/alternative API.
146 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
147
1484.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
149 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
150 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
151 (analysed by elmex).
152
1534.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
154 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
155 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
156 for errors after every push_write etc.
157 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
158 platforms.
159
1604.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
6 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh. 161 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
7 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply 162 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
8 segfault in Net::SSLeay. 163 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
164 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
165 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
166 tutorial accordingly.
9 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend. 167 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.

114.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009 1694.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
12 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document 170 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
13 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure. 171 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
14 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib. 172 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
15 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries. 173 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
16 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts. 174 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
17 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness 175 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
18 in IO::ASync. 176 in IO::Async.

235 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) - 393 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
236 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever. 394 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
