76.01
8 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::DNS resource records now include
9 the TTL as fourth element - this affects ->resolve, ->request
10 and ->dns_unpack indirectly. Convenience functions such as
11 AnyEvent::DNS::{a,txt,mx,srv} are not affected, neither is
12 AnyEvent::Socket.
13 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: backend authors now should not implement
14 one_event or loop, but instead the AnyEvent::CondVar::_wait and _poll
15 methods.
16 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: verbosity levels have been redefined, see
17 AnyEvent (PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE) and AnyEvent::Log for details.
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 - *blush* idle watcher emulation was borked.
23 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks the AE::xxx functions as well.
24 - querying too long domain names would barf deep inside AnyEvent::DNS - since
25 this is hard to avoid for applications, AnyEvent:.DNS::request now checks for
26 for too long domain names explicitly and passes an undef to the callback
27 instead (reported by James Bromberger).
28 - make AnyEvent::Util more robust against EINTR (analyzed by Andrew Suffield).
29 - new functions: AnyEvent::postpone, AnyEvent::log.
30 - new module: AnyEvent::Log, for simple logging needs.
31 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_SHELL, to automatically start
32 a debug shell.
33 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_WRAP, to automatically enable
34 watcher instrumentation/wrapping (see AnyEvent::Debug::wrap).
35 - lots of new AnyEvent::Debug functionality.
36 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks for modifications $_ by the callback
37 (by setting it to readonly while executing the callback, if possible).
38 - IO::Async sometimes cancels the wrong timer when you call cancel_timer.
39 Invest extra overhead to work around this peculiar behaviour.
40 - split the pure perl backend into a loop module and an impl
41 module (AnyEvent::Loop and AnyEvent::Impl::Perl).
42 - some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could
43 errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own
44 (reported by Mohammad Toossi).
45 - add more workarounds around child watcher bugs in IO::Async
46 and (newly introduced) in POE.
47 - use glib child watchers and try to work around its limitations,
48 if possible (based on a patch by Kevin Ryde).
49 - add support for FLTK (fltk2), via AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2.
50 - many read types in AnyEvent::Handle would malfunction during
51 transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}".
52 (reported by Gerald Galster).
53 - improve condvar blocking wait performance (probably only noticable
54 with faster backends), also make it easier for event loops that
55 do not support blocking waits.
56 - PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL now also allows full module names, although
57 the usefulness of this feature is not yet clear.
58 - add tests for all supported event loops, conditional on PERL_ANYEVENT_LOOP_TESTS.
59 - add t/80_ssltext.t.
60 - no longer use AUTOLOAD for the initial loading (for no very good reason).
61 - tcp_server now tries to unlink unix domain sockets when it gets destroyed.
62 - do not run event loop detection multiple times when programs call their cached
63 copies of AnyEvent::detect.
64 - parse_hostport now accepts absolute paths als unix domain sockets.
65
666.0 (not officially released, but was on CPAN for about 15 minutes :/)

685.34 Thu May 12 09:59:41 CEST 2011
69 - AE::TLS didn't support both cert_file and key at the same time,
70 due to some copy&paste bug (reported and analyzed by vti).
71 - improve AE::Handle timeout documentation slightly.
72
735.33 Mon Feb 7 21:51:41 CET 2011
74 - never appeared on CPAN, for unknown reasons.
8 - AnyEvent::Handle on_connect_error - do not try to destroy a handle 75 - AnyEvent::Handle on_connect_error - do not try to destroy a handle
9 object when it's already gone (analyzed by Ryan Bullock). 76 object when it's already gone (analyzed by Ryan Bullock).
10 - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0. 77 - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0.
11 - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve, 78 - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve,
12 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense. 79 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
