|
|
11 | - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::DNS resource records now include |
|
|
12 | the TTL as fourth element - this affects ->resolve directly, |
|
|
13 | and ->request and ->dns_unpack indirectly. Convenience functions |
|
|
14 | such as AnyEvent::DNS::{a,txt,mx,srv} are not affected. |
|
|
15 | - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: backend authors now should not implement |
|
|
16 | one_event or loop, but instead the AnyEvent::CondVar::_wait and _poll |
|
|
17 | methods. |
|
|
18 | - DEPRECIATION: please change |
|
|
19 | "use AnyEvent::Impl::Perl" to "use AnyEvent::Loop" and |
|
|
20 | "AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop" to "AnyEvent::Loop::run" |
|
|
21 | in your programs, for future compatibility. |
|
|
22 | - querying too long domain names would barf deep inside AnyEvent::DNS - since |
|
|
23 | this is hard to avoid for applications, AnyEvent:.DNS::request now checks for |
|
|
24 | for too long domain names explicitly and passes an undef to the callback |
|
|
25 | instead (reported by James Bromberger). |
|
|
26 | - new function: AnyEvent::postpone. |
|
|
27 | - IO::Async sometimes cancels the wrong timer when you call cancel_timer. |
|
|
28 | Invest extra overhead to work around this peculiar behaviour. |
|
|
29 | - split the pure perl backend into a loop module and an impl |
|
|
30 | module (AnyEvent::Loop and AnyEvent::Impl::Perl). |
|
|
31 | - some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could |
|
|
32 | errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own |
|
|
33 | (reported by Mohammad Toossi). |
|
|
34 | - add more workarounds around child watcher bugs in IO::Async |
|
|
35 | and (newly introduced) in POE. |
|
|
36 | - use glib child watchers and try to work around its limitations, |
|
|
37 | if possible (based on a patch by Kevin Ryde). |
|
|
38 | - add support for (currently third-party) AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK. |
|
|
39 | - many read types in AnyEvent::Handle would malfunction during |
|
|
40 | transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}". |
|
|
41 | (reported by Gerald Galster). |
|
|
42 | - resolve AnyEvent::Util::guard at first-use-time, not at load time, |
|
|
43 | for further speed and memory savings when not used. |
|
|
44 | - improve condvar blocking wait performance (probably only noticable |
|
|
45 | with faster backends), also make it easier for event loops that |
|
|
46 | do not support blocking waits. |
|
|
47 | - PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL now also allows full module names, although |
|
|
48 | the usefulness of this feature is not yet clear. |
|
|
49 | |
|
|
50 | 5.34 Thu May 12 09:59:41 CEST 2011 |
|
|
51 | - AE::TLS didn't support both cert_file and key at the same time, |
|
|
52 | due to some copy&paste bug (reported and analyzed by vti). |
|
|
53 | - improve AE::Handle timeout documentation slightly. |
|
|
54 | |
|
|
55 | 5.33 Mon Feb 7 21:51:41 CET 2011 |
|
|
56 | - never appeared on CPAN, for unknown reasons. |
|
|
57 | - AnyEvent::Handle on_connect_error - do not try to destroy a handle |
|
|
58 | object when it's already gone (analyzed by Ryan Bullock). |
|
|
59 | - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0. |
|
|
60 | - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve, |
|
|
61 | uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense. |
|
|
62 | - remove leading dots in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to remove, |
|
|
63 | uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense. |
|
|
64 | - fixed a bug in idn ignored character processing. |
|
|
65 | - passes the uts46 6.0.0 testsuite except for three cases which |
|
|
66 | apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself. |
|
|
67 | - passes the uts46 6.0.1 testsuite except for eleven cases which |
|
|
68 | apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself. |
|
|
69 | |
|
|
70 | 5.31 Sun Jan 23 11:49:19 CET 2011 |
|
|
71 | - work around a POE bug where POE would first poll for new events and |
|
|
72 | invoke handlers BEFORE handling the message queue. |
|
|
73 | - fix parsing of "domain" statement in resolv.conf (Johannes Plunien). |
|
|
74 | - stop_read now does just that in TLS mode. see its |
|
|
75 | documentation for caveats. |
|
|
76 | - update to common::sense 3.4 warning set (some warnings in perl impose |
|
|
77 | an arbitrary 32kb limit on regex matches, which affects |
|
|
78 | AnyEvent::Handle). |
|
|
79 | - AE::Handle had a broken rbuf_max method and missing wbuf_max method. |
|
|
80 | - new experimental AE::Handle::resettls method. |
|
|
81 | |
|
|
82 | 5.3 Fri Dec 31 05:48:13 CET 2010 |
|
|
83 | - major IOAsync patch by Paul Evans - 0.33 is required, as the major |
|
|
84 | issues with IO::Async have been solved in that version, including |
|
|
85 | the availabilty of a default loop! |
|
|
86 | - implement new wbuf_max parameter for AnyEvent::Handle. |
|
|
87 | - added Cocoa::EventLoop backend by Daisuke Murase. |
|
|
88 | - the default testsuite now honors PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL (Paul Evans). |
|
|
89 | - clarify handle on_prepare documentation. |
|
|
90 | - set CLOEXEC flag on parent-side fd's in AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd, |
|
|
91 | to avoid leaking them to any child processes. |
|
|
92 | - try to force files into the arch-dependend lib directory, for the |
|
|
93 | half-"turly obsessive compulsive person"(s) that depend on it. |
|
|
94 | |
|
|
95 | 5.29 Sun Dec 5 10:49:21 CET 2010 |
|
|
96 | - convert EV backend to EV 4.00 API (so better upgrade EV too). |
7 | - AE::Handle: implement dynamic read_size adjustment, add |
97 | - AE::Handle: implement dynamic read_size adjustment, add |
8 | max_read_size parameter, reduce default read_size to 2048. |
98 | max_read_size parameter, reduce default read_size to 2048. |
|
|
99 | - add some FAQ entries for servers and/or on_eof vs. on_error. |
9 | - work around OS bugs (cygwin again) when lingering in AE::Handle. |
100 | - work around OS bugs (cygwin again) when lingering in AE::Handle. |
|
|
101 | - reduce memory usage slightly when connect was used in AE::Handle. |
|
|
102 | - wrok around more segfaults in Tk. |
|
|
103 | - document tls_ctx => undef as valid. |
|
|
104 | - detect WNOHANG value at compiletime. |
|
|
105 | - include some probably linux-only support for building AnyEvent |
|
|
106 | as part of the perl core. |
|
|
107 | - improve compatibility of t/08_idna.t to perl 5.8. |
|
|
108 | - make AnyEvent::Strict truly optional (in case somebody builds a |
|
|
109 | minimal perl...). |
