3TODO: docs signal for condvar
4
5 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
6 time (found by Andy Grundman).
7
85.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
9 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
10 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
11 by Bas Denissen).
12 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
13 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
14 EV and Perl backends.
15 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
16 backends.
17 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
18 never documented nor universally supported).
19 - some more memory µ-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
20 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
21
225.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
23 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
24 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
25 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
26
275.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
28 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
29 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
30 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
31 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
32 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
33 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
34 by lucky accident on win32.
35 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
36 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
37 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
38 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
39 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
40 detection and eval.
41 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
42 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
43 (same algorithm as EV).
44 - update unicode idna mapping table.
45
465.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
47 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
48 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
49 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
50 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
51
525.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
53 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
54 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
55 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
56 - provide $AE::VERSION.
57 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
58
595.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
60 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
61 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
62 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
63 when passing scalar data to extensions).
64 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
65 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
66 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
67 (John Beppu).
68 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
69 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
70 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
71 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
72
735.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
74 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
75 (spotted by David Friedland).
76 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
77 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
78 unless you rip out everything but the core).
79 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
80 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
81
825.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
83 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
84 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
85 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
86 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
87 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
88
895.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
90 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
91 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
92 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
93 (analysed by elmex).
94
955.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
96 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
97 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
98 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
99 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
100 AnyEvent::Handle.
101 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
102 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
103 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
104 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
105
1065.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
107 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
108 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
109 by Michael S. Fischer).
110 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
111 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
112 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
113 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
114 by default.
115 - fix some prototypes.
116 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
117 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
118
1195.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
120 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
121 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
122 - port to broken win32 perls.
123
1245.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
125 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
126 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
127 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
128 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
129 OSes as well).
130
1315.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
132 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
133 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
134 to reduce dependency on JSON.
135
1365.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
137 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
138 one (was broken since 4.91).
139 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
140 when retrying a tcp_connect.
141 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
142 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
143
1445.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
145 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
146
1475.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
148 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
149 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
150 in AnyEvent::Handle.
151 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
152 settings.
153 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
154 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
155 exporting the probe function).
156 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
157 code to work around it's watcher limits.
158 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
159 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
160 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
161 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
162 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
163
1644.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
165 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
166 already contains some TLS handshake.
167 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
168 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
169 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
170 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
171 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
172
1734.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
174 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
175 a negative value, so avoid that.
176 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
177 after the condition is already signalled.
178 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
179 data.
180 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
181 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
182 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
183 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
184 any issues).
185 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
186 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
187 by name (not name or number).
188 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
189 only compiling signal code when necessary.
190 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
191 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
192 said future/alternative API.
193 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
194
1954.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
196 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
197 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
198 (analysed by elmex).
199
2004.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
201 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
202 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
203 for errors after every push_write etc.
204 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
205 platforms.
206
2074.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
208 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
209 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
210 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
211 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
212 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
213 tutorial accordingly.
214 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
215
2164.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
217 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
218 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
219 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
220 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
221 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
222 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
223 in IO::Async.
224
2254.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
226 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
227 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
228 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
229 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
230 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
231 documentation.
232 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
233 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
234 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
235 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
236 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
237 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
238
2394.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
240 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
241 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
242 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
243 this trap.
244 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
245 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
246 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
247 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
248 on_read callbacks.
249 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
250
2514.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
252 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
253 callbacks.
254 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
255 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
256 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
257 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
258 Event::Lib.
259 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
260 to rarely fail.
261
2624.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
263 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
264 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
265 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
266 in AnyEvent->io.
267 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
268 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
269 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
270 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
271 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
272 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
273 portable_socketpair.
274 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
275 YMMV.
276
2774.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009
278 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
279 uppercase targets.
280 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
281 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
282 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
283 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
284 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
285 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
286 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
287 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
288 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
289 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
290 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
291 in the common case.
292 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
293 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
294 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
295 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
296 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
297 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
298 from the constructor.
299 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
300 then fall back to JSON.
301 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
302 and because it was documented that way.
303
3044.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
305 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
306 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
307
3084.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
309 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
310 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
311 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
312 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
313 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
314 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
315 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
316 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
317 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
318
3194.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
320 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
321 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
322 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
323 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
324 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
325
3264.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
327 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
328 and set it on the default resolver.
329 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
330 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
331 when running in tainted mode.
332 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
333
3344.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
335 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
336
3374.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
338 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
339 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
340 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
341 destructors.
342 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
343 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
344 implementation.
345 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
346 for cosmetic reasons.
347
3484.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
349 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
350 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
351 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
352 - sped up Tk timer handling.
353 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
354 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
355 - fix Qt timers without interval.
356 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.
357
3584.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
359 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
360 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
361 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
362
3634.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
364 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
365 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
366 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
367 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
368
3694.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
370 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
371 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
372 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
373 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
374 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
375 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
376 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
377 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
378 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
379 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
380 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
381
3824.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
383 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
384 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
385 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
386 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
387 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
388 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
389 backend.
390 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
391
3924.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
393 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
394 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
395 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
396 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
397 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
398 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
399
4004.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
401 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
402 illegal.
403 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
404 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
405 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
406 by Adam Rosenstein).
407 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
408 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
409 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
410
4114.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
412 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
413 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
414 the socket type.
415 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
416
4174.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
418 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
419 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
420 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
421 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
422 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
423 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
424
4254.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
426 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
427 unless one has been installed already.
428 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
429 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
430 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle.
431 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
432 client would first wait for some data by the server and
433 otherwise hang. (reported and analysed in an absolutely
434 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
435 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
436 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
437 (reported and analysed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
438 Rosenstein).
439 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
440 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
441 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
442 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
443 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
444 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
445 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
446 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
447 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
448 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
449 now, more to come, though.
450 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
451
4524.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
453 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
454 no trace events.
455 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
456 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
457 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
458 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
459 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
460 Time::HiRes).
461
4624.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
463 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
464 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
465
4664.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
467 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
468 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
469 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
470 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
471
4724.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
473 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
474 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
475 perls without resource leaks or worse).
476
4774.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
478 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
479 the callback.
480 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
481 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
482 eol marker.
483 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
484 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
485 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
486
4874.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
488 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
489 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
490 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
491 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
492 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
493
4944.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
495 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
496 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
497 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
498 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
499 unusable way.
500 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
501 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
502 K. Sharifulin).
503
5044.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
505 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
506 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
507 be delayed under some circumstances.
508 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
509 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
510 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
511 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
512 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
513 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
514
5154.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
516 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
517 assumption that all data could be written before read
518 (reported by Jim Razmus).
519
5204.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
521 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
522 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
523 implementation (also affected child watchers).
524 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
525
5264.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
527 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
528 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
529 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
530
5314.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
532 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
533 works.
534
5354.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
536 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
537 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
538 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
539 for AnyEvent::Handle.
540 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
541 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
542
5434.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
544 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
545 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
546 executing the guard block as warnings.
547 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
548
5494.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
550 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
551 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
552 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
553 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
554 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
555 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
556 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
557 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
558 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
559 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
560 enter an endless loop.
561 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
562 busy again after idling.
563 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
564 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
565 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
566 (hopefully).
567 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
568 away any time.
569
5704.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
571 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
572 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
573 - allow more options in on_error.
574
5754.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008
