3TODO: document $AnyEvent::DNS::RESOLVER
4TODO: maybe remove orderign description and make this a private feature?
5TODO: anyevenmt_read_type for unshift_read
6TODO: condvar->new method is documented and should be there.
7TODO: http://github.com/sanko/net-bittorrent/commit/e1d06941d7217011f5f06ce7152012d5e1b44b9a
8 - clarify that you can actually call push_read etc. in on_read.
9 - incorporated major typo patches by Abhijit Menon-Sen.
10
115.271 Tue Jun 8 12:05:46 CEST 2010
12 - backport to perl 5.8.x.
13
145.27 Sun Jun 6 12:12:05 CEST 2010
15 - postpone differently in AnyEvent::Socket now, as
16 when not, canceling the connection attempt might fail
17 (found by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
18 - explicitly check for non-stream sockets in AE::Handle, too many
19 clueless people fell into the trap of this somehow working.
20 - simplified and reworked the "OTHER MODULES" section.
21 - better/more condvar examples.
22
235.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010
24 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
25 time (found by Andy Grundman).
26
275.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
28 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
29 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
30 by Bas Denissen).
31 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
32 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
33 EV and Perl backends.
34 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
35 backends.
36 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
37 never documented nor universally supported).
38 - some more memory ยต-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
39 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
40
415.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
42 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
43 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
44 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
45
465.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
47 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
48 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
49 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
50 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
51 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
52 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
53 by lucky accident on win32.
54 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
55 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
56 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
57 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
58 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
59 detection and eval.
60 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
61 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
62 (same algorithm as EV).
63 - update unicode idna mapping table.
64
655.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
66 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
67 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
68 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
69 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
70
715.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
72 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
73 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
74 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
75 - provide $AE::VERSION.
76 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
77
785.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
79 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
80 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
81 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
82 when passing scalar data to extensions).
83 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
84 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
85 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
86 (John Beppu).
87 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
88 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
89 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
90 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
91
925.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
93 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
94 (spotted by David Friedland).
95 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
96 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
97 unless you rip out everything but the core).
98 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
99 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
100
1015.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
102 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
103 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
104 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
105 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
106 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
107
1085.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
109 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
110 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
111 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
112 (analysed by elmex).
113
1145.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
115 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
116 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
117 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
118 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
119 AnyEvent::Handle.
120 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
121 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
122 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
123 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
124
1255.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
126 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
127 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
128 by Michael S. Fischer).
129 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
130 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
131 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
132 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
133 by default.
134 - fix some prototypes.
135 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
136 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
137
1385.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
139 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
140 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
141 - port to broken win32 perls.
142
1435.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
144 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
145 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
146 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
147 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
148 OSes as well).
