2 2
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
8TODO: check for -w? somehow?
9 - clarify that you can actually call push_read etc. in on_read.
10 - incorporated major typo patches by Abhijit Menon-Sen.
11 - AnyEvent::Strict: do the test for invalid fh arguments differently,
12 resulting in more informative error messages.

145.271 Tue Jun 8 12:05:46 CEST 2010
15 - backport to perl 5.8.x.
16
175.27 Sun Jun 6 12:12:05 CEST 2010
18 - postpone differently in AnyEvent::Socket now, as
19 when not, canceling the connection attempt might fail
20 (found by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
21 - explicitly check for non-stream sockets in AE::Handle, too many
22 clueless people fell into the trap of this somehow working.
23 - simplified and reworked the "OTHER MODULES" section.
24 - better/more condvar examples.
25
265.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010
27 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
28 time (found by Andy Grundman).
29
305.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
31 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
32 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
33 by Bas Denissen).
34 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
35 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
36 EV and Perl backends.
37 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
38 backends.
39 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
40 never documented nor universally supported).
41 - some more memory ยต-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
42 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
43
445.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
45 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
46 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
47 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
48
495.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
50 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
51 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
52 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
53 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
54 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
55 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
56 by lucky accident on win32.
57 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
58 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
59 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
60 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
61 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
62 detection and eval.
63 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
64 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
65 (same algorithm as EV).
66 - update unicode idna mapping table.
67
685.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
69 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
70 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
71 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
72 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
73
745.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
75 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
76 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
77 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
78 - provide $AE::VERSION.
79 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
80
815.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
82 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
83 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
84 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
85 when passing scalar data to extensions).
86 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
87 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
88 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
89 (John Beppu).
90 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
91 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
92 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
93 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
94
955.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
96 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
97 (spotted by David Friedland).
98 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
99 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
100 unless you rip out everything but the core).
101 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
102 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
103
1045.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
105 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
106 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
107 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
108 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
109 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
110
1115.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
112 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
113 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
114 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
115 (analysed by elmex).
116
1175.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
118 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
119 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
120 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
121 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
122 AnyEvent::Handle.
123 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
124 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
125 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
126 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
127
1285.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
129 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
130 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
131 by Michael S. Fischer).
132 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
133 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
134 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
135 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
136 by default.
137 - fix some prototypes.
138 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
139 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
140
1415.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
142 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
143 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
144 - port to broken win32 perls.
145
1465.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
147 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
148 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
149 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
150 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
151 OSes as well).
152
1535.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
154 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
155 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
156 to reduce dependency on JSON.
