96.01
10 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::DNS resource records now include
11 the TTL as fourth element - this affects ->resolve, ->request
12 and ->dns_unpack indirectly. Convenience functions such as
13 AnyEvent::DNS::{a,txt,mx,srv} are not affected, neither is
14 AnyEvent::Socket.
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 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: verbosity levels have been redefined, see
19 AnyEvent (PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE) and AnyEvent::Log for details.
20 - DEPRECIATION: please change
21 "use AnyEvent::Impl::Perl" to "use AnyEvent::Loop" and
22 "AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop" to "AnyEvent::Loop::run"
23 in your programs, for future compatibility.
24 - *blush* idle watcher emulation was borked.
25 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks the AE::xxx functions as well.
26 - querying too long domain names would barf deep inside AnyEvent::DNS - since
27 this is hard to avoid for applications, AnyEvent:.DNS::request now checks for
28 for too long domain names explicitly and passes an undef to the callback
29 instead (reported by James Bromberger).
30 - make AnyEvent::Util more robust against EINTR (analyzed by Andrew Suffield).
31 - new functions: AnyEvent::postpone, AnyEvent::log.
32 - new module: AnyEvent::Log, for simple logging needs.
33 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG, for fine-grained logging config.
34 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_SHELL, to automatically start
35 a debug shell.
36 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_WRAP, to automatically enable
37 watcher instrumentation/wrapping (see AnyEvent::Debug::wrap).
38 - an empty PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF now selects the default
39 configuration.
40 - env variables can now be specified using AE_xyz instead of
41 PERL_ANYEVENT_xyz, subject to some rules.
42 - lots of new AnyEvent::Debug functionality.
43 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks for modifications $_ by the callback
44 (by setting it to readonly while executing the callback, if possible).
45 - IO::Async sometimes cancels the wrong timer when you call cancel_timer.
46 Invest extra overhead to work around this peculiar behaviour.
47 - split the pure perl backend into a loop module and an impl
48 module (AnyEvent::Loop and AnyEvent::Impl::Perl).
49 - some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could
50 errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own
51 (reported by Mohammad Toossi).
52 - add more workarounds around child watcher bugs in IO::Async
53 and (newly introduced) in POE.
54 - use glib child watchers and try to work around its limitations,
55 if possible (based on a patch by Kevin Ryde).
56 - add support for FLTK (fltk2), via AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2.
57 - many read types in AnyEvent::Handle would malfunction during
58 transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}".
59 (reported by Gerald Galster).
60 - improve condvar blocking wait performance (probably only noticable
61 with faster backends), also make it easier for event loops that
62 do not support blocking waits.
63 - PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL now also allows full module names, although
64 the usefulness of this feature is not yet clear.
65 - add tests for all supported event loops, conditional on PERL_ANYEVENT_LOOP_TESTS.
66 - add t/80_ssltext.t.
67 - no longer use AUTOLOAD for the initial loading (for no very good reason).
68 - tcp_server now tries to unlink unix domain sockets when it gets destroyed.
69 - do not run event loop detection multiple times when programs call their cached
70 copies of AnyEvent::detect.
71 - parse_hostport now accepts absolute paths als unix domain sockets.
72 - add Task::Weaken as dependency (as recommends only at this time).
73
746.0 (not officially released, but was on CPAN for about 15 minutes :/)
75
765.34 Thu May 12 09:59:41 CEST 2011
77 - AE::TLS didn't support both cert_file and key at the same time,
78 due to some copy&paste bug (reported and analyzed by vti).
79 - improve AE::Handle timeout documentation slightly.
80
815.33 Mon Feb 7 21:51:41 CET 2011
82 - never appeared on CPAN, for unknown reasons.
83 - AnyEvent::Handle on_connect_error - do not try to destroy a handle
84 object when it's already gone (analyzed by Ryan Bullock).
85 - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0.
86 - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve,
87 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
88 - remove leading dots in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to remove,
89 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
90 - fixed a bug in idn ignored character processing.
91 - passes the uts46 6.0.0 testsuite except for three cases which
92 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
93 - passes the uts46 6.0.1 testsuite except for eleven cases which
94 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
95
965.31 Sun Jan 23 11:49:19 CET 2011
97 - work around a POE bug where POE would first poll for new events and
98 invoke handlers BEFORE handling the message queue.
99 - fix parsing of "domain" statement in resolv.conf (Johannes Plunien).
100 - stop_read now does just that in TLS mode. see its
101 documentation for caveats.
102 - update to common::sense 3.4 warning set (some warnings in perl impose
103 an arbitrary 32kb limit on regex matches, which affects
104 AnyEvent::Handle).
105 - AE::Handle had a broken rbuf_max method and missing wbuf_max method.
106 - new experimental AE::Handle::resettls method.
107
1085.3 Fri Dec 31 05:48:13 CET 2010
109 - major IOAsync patch by Paul Evans - 0.33 is required, as the major
110 issues with IO::Async have been solved in that version, including
111 the availabilty of a default loop!
112 - implement new wbuf_max parameter for AnyEvent::Handle.
113 - added Cocoa::EventLoop backend by Daisuke Murase.
114 - the default testsuite now honors PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL (Paul Evans).
115 - clarify handle on_prepare documentation.
116 - set CLOEXEC flag on parent-side fd's in AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd,
117 to avoid leaking them to any child processes.
118 - try to force files into the arch-dependend lib directory, for the
119 half-"turly obsessive compulsive person"(s) that depend on it.
120
1215.29 Sun Dec 5 10:49:21 CET 2010
11 - convert EV backend to EV 4.00 API. 122 - convert EV backend to EV 4.00 API (so better upgrade EV too).
12 - AE::Handle: implement dynamic read_size adjustment, add 123 - AE::Handle: implement dynamic read_size adjustment, add
13 max_read_size parameter, reduce default read_size to 2048. 124 max_read_size parameter, reduce default read_size to 2048.
125 - add some FAQ entries for servers and/or on_eof vs. on_error.
14 - work around OS bugs (cygwin again) when lingering in AE::Handle. 126 - work around OS bugs (cygwin again) when lingering in AE::Handle.
15 - reduce memory usage slightly when connect was used in AE::Handle. 127 - reduce memory usage slightly when connect was used in AE::Handle.
128 - wrok around more segfaults in Tk.
16 - document tls_ctx => undef as valid. 129 - document tls_ctx => undef as valid.
130 - detect WNOHANG value at compiletime.
17 - include some probably linux-only support for building AnyEvent 131 - include some probably linux-only support for building AnyEvent
18 as part of the perl core. 132 as part of the perl core.
19 - improve compatibility of t/08_idna.t to perl 5.8. 133 - improve compatibility of t/08_idna.t to perl 5.8.
20 - make AnyEvent::Strict truly optional (in case somebody builds a 134 - make AnyEvent::Strict truly optional (in case somebody builds a
21 minimal perl...). 135 minimal perl...).
