55.27 Sun Jun 6 12:12:05 CEST 2010
6 - postpone differently in AnyEvent::Socket now, as
7 when not, canceling the connection attempt might fail
8 (found by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
9 - explicitly check for non-stream sockets in AE::Handle, too many
10 clueless people fell into the trap of this somehow working.
11 - simplified and reworked the "OTHER MODULES" section.
12 - better/more condvar examples.
13
145.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010
15 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
16 time (found by Andy Grundman).
17
185.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
19 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
20 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
21 by Bas Denissen).
22 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
23 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
24 EV and Perl backends.
25 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
26 backends.
27 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
28 never documented nor universally supported).
29 - some more memory ยต-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
30 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
31
325.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
33 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
34 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
35 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
36
375.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
38 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
39 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
40 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
41 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
42 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
43 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
44 by lucky accident on win32.
45 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
46 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
47 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
48 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
49 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
50 detection and eval.
51 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
52 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
53 (same algorithm as EV).
54 - update unicode idna mapping table.
55
565.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
57 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
58 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
59 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
60 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
61
625.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
63 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
64 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
65 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
66 - provide $AE::VERSION.
67 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
68
695.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
70 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
71 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
72 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
73 when passing scalar data to extensions).
74 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
75 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
76 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
77 (John Beppu).
78 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
79 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
80 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
81 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
82
835.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
84 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
85 (spotted by David Friedland).
86 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
87 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
88 unless you rip out everything but the core).
89 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
90 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
91
925.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
93 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
94 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
95 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
96 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
97 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
98
995.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
100 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
101 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
102 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
103 (analysed by elmex).
104
1055.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
106 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
107 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
108 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
109 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
110 AnyEvent::Handle.
111 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
112 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
113 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
114 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
115
1165.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
117 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
118 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
119 by Michael S. Fischer).
120 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
121 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
122 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
123 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
124 by default.
125 - fix some prototypes.
126 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
127 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
128
1295.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
130 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
131 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
132 - port to broken win32 perls.
133
1345.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
135 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
136 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
137 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
138 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
139 OSes as well).
140
1415.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
142 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
143 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
144 to reduce dependency on JSON.
145
1465.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
147 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
148 one (was broken since 4.91).
149 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
150 when retrying a tcp_connect.
151 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
152 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
153
1545.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
155 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
156
1575.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
158 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
159 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
160 in AnyEvent::Handle.
161 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
162 settings.
163 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
164 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
165 exporting the probe function).
166 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
167 code to work around it's watcher limits.
168 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
169 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
170 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
171 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
172 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
173
1744.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
175 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
176 already contains some TLS handshake.
177 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
178 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
179 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
180 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
181 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
182
1834.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
184 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
185 a negative value, so avoid that.
186 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
187 after the condition is already signalled.
188 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
189 data.
190 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
191 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
192 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
193 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
194 any issues).
195 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
196 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
197 by name (not name or number).
198 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
199 only compiling signal code when necessary.
200 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
201 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
202 said future/alternative API.
203 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
204
2054.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
206 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
207 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
208 (analysed by elmex).
209
2104.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
211 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
212 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
213 for errors after every push_write etc.
214 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
215 platforms.
216
2174.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
6 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh. 218 - 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 219 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply

9 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters 221 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
10 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated 222 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
