3TODO: docs signal for condvar
4
55.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010
6 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
7 time (found by Andy Grundman).
8
95.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
10 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
11 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
12 by Bas Denissen).
13 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
14 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
15 EV and Perl backends.
16 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
17 backends.
18 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
19 never documented nor universally supported).
20 - some more memory µ-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
21 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
22
235.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
24 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
25 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
26 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
27
285.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
29 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
30 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
31 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
32 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
33 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
34 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
35 by lucky accident on win32.
36 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
37 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
38 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
39 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
40 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
41 detection and eval.
42 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
43 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
44 (same algorithm as EV).
45 - update unicode idna mapping table.
46
475.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
48 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
49 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
50 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
51 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
52
535.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
54 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
55 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
56 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
57 - provide $AE::VERSION.
58 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
59
605.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
61 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
62 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
63 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
64 when passing scalar data to extensions).
65 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
66 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
67 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
68 (John Beppu).
69 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
70 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
71 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
72 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
73
745.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
75 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
76 (spotted by David Friedland).
77 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
78 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
79 unless you rip out everything but the core).
80 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
81 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
82
835.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
84 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
85 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
86 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
87 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
88 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
89
905.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
91 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
92 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
93 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
94 (analysed by elmex).
95
965.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
97 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
98 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
99 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
100 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
101 AnyEvent::Handle.
102 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
103 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
104 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
105 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
106
1075.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
108 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
109 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
110 by Michael S. Fischer).
111 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
112 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
113 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
114 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
115 by default.
116 - fix some prototypes.
117 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
118 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
119
1205.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
121 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
122 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
123 - port to broken win32 perls.
124
1255.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
126 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
127 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
128 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
129 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
130 OSes as well).
131
1325.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
133 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
134 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
135 to reduce dependency on JSON.
136
1375.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
138 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
139 one (was broken since 4.91).
140 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
141 when retrying a tcp_connect.
142 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
143 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
144
1455.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
146 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
147
1485.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
149 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
150 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
151 in AnyEvent::Handle.
152 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
153 settings.
154 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
155 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
156 exporting the probe function).
157 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
158 code to work around it's watcher limits.
159 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
160 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
161 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
162 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
163 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
164
1654.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
166 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
167 already contains some TLS handshake.
168 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
169 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
170 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
171 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
172 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
173
1744.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
175 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
176 a negative value, so avoid that.
177 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
178 after the condition is already signalled.
179 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
180 data.
181 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
182 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
183 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
184 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
185 any issues).
186 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
187 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
188 by name (not name or number).
189 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
190 only compiling signal code when necessary.
191 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
192 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
193 said future/alternative API.
194 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
195
1964.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
197 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
198 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
199 (analysed by elmex).
200
2014.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
202 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
203 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
204 for errors after every push_write etc.
205 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
206 platforms.
207
2084.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
209 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
210 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
211 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
212 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
213 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
214 tutorial accordingly.
215 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
216
2174.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
218 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
219 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
220 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
221 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
222 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
223 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
224 in IO::Async.
225
2264.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
227 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
228 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
229 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
230 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
231 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
232 documentation.
233 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
234 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
235 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
236 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
237 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
238 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
239
2404.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
241 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
242 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
243 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
244 this trap.
245 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
246 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
247 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
248 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
249 on_read callbacks.
250 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
251
2524.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
253 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
254 callbacks.
255 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
256 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
257 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
258 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
259 Event::Lib.
260 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
261 to rarely fail.
262
2634.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
264 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
265 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
266 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
267 in AnyEvent->io.
268 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
269 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
270 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
271 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
272 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
273 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
274 portable_socketpair.
275 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
276 YMMV.
277
2784.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009
279 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
280 uppercase targets.
281 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
282 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
283 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
284 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
285 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
286 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
287 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
288 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
289 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
290 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
291 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
292 in the common case.
293 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
294 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
295 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
296 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
297 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
298 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
299 from the constructor.
300 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
301 then fall back to JSON.
302 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
303 and because it was documented that way.
304
3054.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
306 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
307 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
308
3094.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
310 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
311 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
312 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
313 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
314 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
315 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
316 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
317 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
318 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
319
3204.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
321 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
322 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
323 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
324 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
325 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
326
3274.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
328 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
329 and set it on the default resolver.
330 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
331 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
332 when running in tainted mode.
333 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
334
3354.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
336 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
337
3384.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
339 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
340 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
341 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
342 destructors.
343 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
344 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
345 implementation.
346 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
347 for cosmetic reasons.
348
3494.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
350 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
351 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
352 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
353 - sped up Tk timer handling.
354 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
355 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
356 - fix Qt timers without interval.
357 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.
358
3594.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
360 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
361 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
362 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
363
3644.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
365 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
366 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
367 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
368 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
369
3704.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
371 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
372 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
373 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
374 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
375 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
376 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
377 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
378 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
379 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
380 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
381 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
382
3834.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
384 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
385 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
386 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
387 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
388 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
389 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
390 backend.
391 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
392
3934.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
394 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
395 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
396 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
397 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
398 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
399 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
400
4014.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
402 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
403 illegal.
404 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
405 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
406 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
407 by Adam Rosenstein).
408 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
409 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
410 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
411
4124.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
413 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
414 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
415 the socket type.
416 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
417
4184.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
419 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
420 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
421 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
422 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
423 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
424 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
425
4264.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
427 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
428 unless one has been installed already.
429 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
430 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
431 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle.
432 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
433 client would first wait for some data by the server and
434 otherwise hang. (reported and analysed in an absolutely
435 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
436 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
437 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
438 (reported and analysed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
439 Rosenstein).
440 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
441 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
442 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
443 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
444 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
445 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
446 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
447 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
448 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
449 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
450 now, more to come, though.
451 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
452
4534.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
454 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
455 no trace events.
456 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
457 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
458 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
459 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
460 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
461 Time::HiRes).
462
4634.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
464 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
465 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
466
4674.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
468 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
469 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
470 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
471 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
472
4734.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
474 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
475 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
476 perls without resource leaks or worse).
477
4784.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
479 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
480 the callback.
481 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
482 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
483 eol marker.
484 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
485 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
486 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
487
4884.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
489 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
490 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
491 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
492 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
493 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
494
4954.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
496 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
497 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
498 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
499 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
500 unusable way.
501 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
502 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
503 K. Sharifulin).
504
5054.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
506 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
507 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
508 be delayed under some circumstances.
509 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
510 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
511 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
512 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
513 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
514 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
515
5164.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
517 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
518 assumption that all data could be written before read
519 (reported by Jim Razmus).
520
5214.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
522 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
523 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
524 implementation (also affected child watchers).
525 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
526
5274.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
528 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
529 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
530 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
531
5324.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
533 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
534 works.
535
5364.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
537 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
538 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
539 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
540 for AnyEvent::Handle.
541 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
542 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
543
5444.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
545 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
546 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
547 executing the guard block as warnings.
548 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
549
5504.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
551 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
552 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
553 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
554 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
555 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
556 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
557 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
558 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
559 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
560 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
561 enter an endless loop.
562 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
563 busy again after idling.
564 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
565 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
566 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
567 (hopefully).
568 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
569 away any time.
570
5714.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
572 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
573 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
574 - allow more options in on_error.
575
5764.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008

13 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot. 587 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot.
588 - in the unlikely event of a virtual circuit connection
589 being invalidated by a delayed udp reply, AnyEvent::DNS
590 could die. this has been fixed.
591 - plug a probable memleak in the DNS vc code.
592 - use configured timeout also for VC request phase.
593 - implement timeout and max_outstanding methods
594 for resolver class.
595 - update version numbers in all modules.
