6TOOD: stop internals abusing
7 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the default log level is now "3" (critical
8 and above), and some emssages inside AnyEvent have bene elevated
9 to critical, so.
10 - add google public ipv6 dns as flalback servers, so AE::DNS can finally
11 support ipv6-only operation even with defaults (also use ::1 instead
12 of 127.0.0.1).
13 - give guidelines on how to chose a logging level.
14 - AE::Strict now checks that registered fds are still valid at regular
15 intervals.
16 - increase signal latency test timer considerably for poor little osx.
17 - mention some debugging aids in the tutorial.

196.02 Fri Aug 26 20:08:31 CEST 2011
20 - log_to_syslog now accepts facility strings.
21 - log_to_syslog would not allow facilities - "$facility|$level"
22 *literally* means that string. sheesh.
23 - the CPAN parser got confused and thought we provide Sys::Syslog, try
24 to work around.
25 - renamed AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2 to FLTK.
26
276.01 Fri Aug 26 07:04:11 CEST 2011
28 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::DNS resource records now include
29 the TTL as fourth element - this affects ->resolve, ->request
30 and ->dns_unpack indirectly. Convenience functions such as
31 AnyEvent::DNS::{a,txt,mx,srv} are not affected, neither is
32 AnyEvent::Socket.
33 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: backend authors now should not implement
34 one_event or loop, but instead the AnyEvent::CondVar::_wait and _poll
35 methods.
36 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: verbosity levels have been redefined, see
37 AnyEvent (PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE) and AnyEvent::Log for details.
38 - DEPRECIATION: please change
39 "use AnyEvent::Impl::Perl" to "use AnyEvent::Loop" and
40 "AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop" to "AnyEvent::Loop::run"
41 in your programs, for future compatibility.
42 - *blush* idle watcher emulation was borked.
43 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks the AE::xxx functions as well.
44 - querying too long domain names would barf deep inside AnyEvent::DNS - since
45 this is hard to avoid for applications, AnyEvent:.DNS::request now checks for
46 for too long domain names explicitly and passes an undef to the callback
47 instead (reported by James Bromberger).
48 - make AnyEvent::Util more robust against EINTR (analyzed by Andrew Suffield).
49 - new functions: AnyEvent::postpone, AnyEvent::log.
50 - new module: AnyEvent::Log, for simple logging needs.
51 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG, for fine-grained logging config.
52 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_SHELL, to automatically start
53 a debug shell.
54 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_WRAP, to automatically enable
55 watcher instrumentation/wrapping (see AnyEvent::Debug::wrap).
56 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_HOSTS, to override the place where
57 F</etc/hosts> can be found.
58 - an empty PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF now selects the default
59 configuration.
60 - env variables can now be specified using AE_xyz instead of
61 PERL_ANYEVENT_xyz, subject to some rules.
62 - lots of new AnyEvent::Debug functionality.
63 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks for modifications $_ by the callback
64 (by setting it to readonly while executing the callback, if possible).
65 - IO::Async sometimes cancels the wrong timer when you call cancel_timer.
66 Invest extra overhead to work around this peculiar behaviour.
67 - split the pure perl backend into a loop module and an impl
68 module (AnyEvent::Loop and AnyEvent::Impl::Perl).
69 - some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could
70 errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own
71 (reported by Mohammad Toossi).
72 - AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr and all functions using it now
73 supports /etc/hosts overrides.
74 - add more workarounds around child watcher bugs in IO::Async
75 and (newly introduced) in POE.
76 - use glib child watchers and try to work around its limitations,
77 if possible (based on a patch by Kevin Ryde).
78 - add support for FLTK (fltk2), via AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2.
79 - many read types in AnyEvent::Handle would malfunction during
80 transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}".
81 (reported by Gerald Galster).
82 - improve condvar blocking wait performance (probably only noticable
83 with faster backends), also make it easier for event loops that
84 do not support blocking waits.
85 - PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL now also allows full module names, although
86 the usefulness of this feature is not yet clear.
87 - add tests for all supported event loops, conditional on PERL_ANYEVENT_LOOP_TESTS.
88 - add t/80_ssltext.t.
89 - no longer use AUTOLOAD for the initial loading (for no very good reason).
90 - tcp_server now tries to unlink unix domain sockets when it gets destroyed.
91 - do not run event loop detection multiple times when programs call their cached
92 copies of AnyEvent::detect.
93 - parse_hostport now accepts absolute paths als unix domain sockets.
94 - suppress the idiotic warning inside POE by patching the POE::Kernel
95 run flags instead of asking the user to jump through contortions.
96 - add Task::Weaken as dependency (as recommends only at this time).
97 - replace PF_UNSPEC by 0, for good old minix.
98
996.0 (not officially released, but was on CPAN for about 15 minutes :/)
100
1015.34 Thu May 12 09:59:41 CEST 2011
102 - AE::TLS didn't support both cert_file and key at the same time,
103 due to some copy&paste bug (reported and analyzed by vti).
104 - improve AE::Handle timeout documentation slightly.
105
1065.33 Mon Feb 7 21:51:41 CET 2011
107 - never appeared on CPAN, for unknown reasons.
108 - AnyEvent::Handle on_connect_error - do not try to destroy a handle
109 object when it's already gone (analyzed by Ryan Bullock).
8 - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0. 110 - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0.
9 - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve, 111 - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve,
10 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense. 112 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
11 - remove leading dots in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to remove, 113 - remove leading dots in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to remove,
12 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense. 114 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
