3TODO: document $AnyEvent::DNS::RESOLVER
45.271 Tue Jun 8 12:05:46 CEST 2010
5 - backport to perl 5.8.x.
6
75.27 Sun Jun 6 12:12:05 CEST 2010
8 - postpone differently in AnyEvent::Socket now, as
9 when not, canceling the connection attempt might fail
10 (found by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
11 - explicitly check for non-stream sockets in AE::Handle, too many
12 clueless people fell into the trap of this somehow working.
13 - simplified and reworked the "OTHER MODULES" section.
14 - better/more condvar examples.
15
165.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010
17 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
18 time (found by Andy Grundman).
19
205.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
21 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
22 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
23 by Bas Denissen).
24 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
25 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
26 EV and Perl backends.
27 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
28 backends.
29 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
30 never documented nor universally supported).
31 - some more memory ยต-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
32 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
33
345.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
35 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
36 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
37 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
38
395.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
40 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
41 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
42 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
43 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
44 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
45 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
46 by lucky accident on win32.
47 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
48 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
49 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
50 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
51 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
52 detection and eval.
53 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
54 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
55 (same algorithm as EV).
56 - update unicode idna mapping table.
57
585.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
59 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
60 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
61 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
62 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
63
645.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
65 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
66 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
67 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
68 - provide $AE::VERSION.
69 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
70
715.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
72 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
73 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
74 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
75 when passing scalar data to extensions).
76 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
77 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
78 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
79 (John Beppu).
80 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
81 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
82 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
83 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
84
855.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
86 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
87 (spotted by David Friedland).
88 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
89 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
90 unless you rip out everything but the core).
91 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
92 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
93
945.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
95 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
96 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
97 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
98 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
99 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
100
1015.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
102 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
103 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
104 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
105 (analysed by elmex).
106
1075.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
108 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
109 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
110 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
111 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
112 AnyEvent::Handle.
113 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
114 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
115 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
116 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
117
1185.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
119 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
120 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
121 by Michael S. Fischer).
122 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
123 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
124 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
125 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
126 by default.
127 - fix some prototypes.
128 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
129 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
130
1315.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
132 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
133 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
134 - port to broken win32 perls.
135
1365.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
137 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
138 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
139 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
140 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
141 OSes as well).
142
1435.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
144 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
145 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
146 to reduce dependency on JSON.
147
1485.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
149 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
150 one (was broken since 4.91).
151 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
152 when retrying a tcp_connect.
153 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
154 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
155
1565.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
157 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
158
1595.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
160 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
161 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
162 in AnyEvent::Handle.
163 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
164 settings.
165 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
166 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
167 exporting the probe function).
168 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
169 code to work around it's watcher limits.
170 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
171 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
172 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
173 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
174 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
175
1764.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
177 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
178 already contains some TLS handshake.
179 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
180 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
181 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
182 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
183 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
184
1854.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
186 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
187 a negative value, so avoid that.
188 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
189 after the condition is already signalled.
190 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
191 data.
192 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
193 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
194 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
195 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
196 any issues).
197 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
198 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
199 by name (not name or number).
200 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
201 only compiling signal code when necessary.
202 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
203 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
204 said future/alternative API.
205 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
206
2074.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
208 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
209 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
210 (analysed by elmex).
211
2124.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
213 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
214 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
215 for errors after every push_write etc.
216 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
217 platforms.
