76.02 Fri Aug 26 20:08:31 CEST 2011
8 - log_to_syslog now accepts facility strings.
9 - log_to_syslog would not allow facilities - "$facility|$level"
10 *literally* means that string. sheesh.
11 - the CPAN parser got confused and thought we provide Sys::Syslog, try
12 to work around.
13 - renamed AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2 to FLTK.
14
156.01 Fri Aug 26 07:04:11 CEST 2011
16 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::DNS resource records now include
17 the TTL as fourth element - this affects ->resolve, ->request
18 and ->dns_unpack indirectly. Convenience functions such as
19 AnyEvent::DNS::{a,txt,mx,srv} are not affected, neither is
20 AnyEvent::Socket.
21 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: backend authors now should not implement
22 one_event or loop, but instead the AnyEvent::CondVar::_wait and _poll
23 methods.
24 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: verbosity levels have been redefined, see
25 AnyEvent (PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE) and AnyEvent::Log for details.
26 - DEPRECIATION: please change
27 "use AnyEvent::Impl::Perl" to "use AnyEvent::Loop" and
28 "AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop" to "AnyEvent::Loop::run"
29 in your programs, for future compatibility.
30 - *blush* idle watcher emulation was borked.
31 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks the AE::xxx functions as well.
32 - querying too long domain names would barf deep inside AnyEvent::DNS - since
33 this is hard to avoid for applications, AnyEvent:.DNS::request now checks for
34 for too long domain names explicitly and passes an undef to the callback
35 instead (reported by James Bromberger).
36 - make AnyEvent::Util more robust against EINTR (analyzed by Andrew Suffield).
37 - new functions: AnyEvent::postpone, AnyEvent::log.
38 - new module: AnyEvent::Log, for simple logging needs.
39 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG, for fine-grained logging config.
40 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_SHELL, to automatically start
41 a debug shell.
42 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_WRAP, to automatically enable
43 watcher instrumentation/wrapping (see AnyEvent::Debug::wrap).
44 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_HOSTS, to override the place where
45 F</etc/hosts> can be found.
46 - an empty PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF now selects the default
47 configuration.
48 - env variables can now be specified using AE_xyz instead of
49 PERL_ANYEVENT_xyz, subject to some rules.
50 - lots of new AnyEvent::Debug functionality.
51 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks for modifications $_ by the callback
52 (by setting it to readonly while executing the callback, if possible).
53 - IO::Async sometimes cancels the wrong timer when you call cancel_timer.
54 Invest extra overhead to work around this peculiar behaviour.
55 - split the pure perl backend into a loop module and an impl
56 module (AnyEvent::Loop and AnyEvent::Impl::Perl).
57 - some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could
58 errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own
59 (reported by Mohammad Toossi).
60 - AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr and all functions using it now
61 supports /etc/hosts overrides.
62 - add more workarounds around child watcher bugs in IO::Async
63 and (newly introduced) in POE.
64 - use glib child watchers and try to work around its limitations,
65 if possible (based on a patch by Kevin Ryde).
66 - add support for FLTK (fltk2), via AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2.
67 - many read types in AnyEvent::Handle would malfunction during
68 transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}".
69 (reported by Gerald Galster).
70 - improve condvar blocking wait performance (probably only noticable
71 with faster backends), also make it easier for event loops that
72 do not support blocking waits.
73 - PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL now also allows full module names, although
74 the usefulness of this feature is not yet clear.
75 - add tests for all supported event loops, conditional on PERL_ANYEVENT_LOOP_TESTS.
76 - add t/80_ssltext.t.
77 - no longer use AUTOLOAD for the initial loading (for no very good reason).
78 - tcp_server now tries to unlink unix domain sockets when it gets destroyed.
79 - do not run event loop detection multiple times when programs call their cached
80 copies of AnyEvent::detect.
81 - parse_hostport now accepts absolute paths als unix domain sockets.
82 - suppress the idiotic warning inside POE by patching the POE::Kernel
83 run flags instead of asking the user to jump through contortions.
84 - add Task::Weaken as dependency (as recommends only at this time).
85 - replace PF_UNSPEC by 0, for good old minix.
86
876.0 (not officially released, but was on CPAN for about 15 minutes :/)
88
895.34 Thu May 12 09:59:41 CEST 2011
90 - AE::TLS didn't support both cert_file and key at the same time,
91 due to some copy&paste bug (reported and analyzed by vti).
92 - improve AE::Handle timeout documentation slightly.
93
945.33 Mon Feb 7 21:51:41 CET 2011
95 - never appeared on CPAN, for unknown reasons.
96 - AnyEvent::Handle on_connect_error - do not try to destroy a handle
97 object when it's already gone (analyzed by Ryan Bullock).
98 - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0.
99 - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve,
100 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
101 - remove leading dots in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to remove,
102 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
103 - fixed a bug in idn ignored character processing.
104 - passes the uts46 6.0.0 testsuite except for three cases which
105 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
106 - passes the uts46 6.0.1 testsuite except for eleven cases which
107 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
108
1095.31 Sun Jan 23 11:49:19 CET 2011
110 - work around a POE bug where POE would first poll for new events and
111 invoke handlers BEFORE handling the message queue.
112 - fix parsing of "domain" statement in resolv.conf (Johannes Plunien).
113 - stop_read now does just that in TLS mode. see its
114 documentation for caveats.
115 - update to common::sense 3.4 warning set (some warnings in perl impose
116 an arbitrary 32kb limit on regex matches, which affects
117 AnyEvent::Handle).
118 - AE::Handle had a broken rbuf_max method and missing wbuf_max method.
119 - new experimental AE::Handle::resettls method.
