9TODO: keeps alive, self-reference, storabel et al.
10 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::DNS resource records now include
11 the TTL as fourth element - this affects ->resolve directly,
12 and ->request and ->dns_unpack indirectly. Convenience functions
13 such as AnyEvent::DNS::{a,txt,mx,srv} are not affected.
14 - some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could
15 errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own
16 (reported by Mohammad Toossi).
17 - add support for (currently third-party) AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK.
18 - many read types in AnyEvent::Handle would malfunction during
19 transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}".
20 (reported by Gerald Galster).
21
225.34 Thu May 12 09:59:41 CEST 2011
23 - AE::TLS didn't support both cert_file and key at the same time,
24 due to some copy&paste bug (reported and analyzed by vti).
25 - improve AE::Handle timeout documentation slightly.
26
275.33 Mon Feb 7 21:51:41 CET 2011
28 - never appeared on CPAN, for unknown reasons.
29 - AnyEvent::Handle on_connect_error - do not try to destroy a handle
30 object when it's already gone (analyzed by Ryan Bullock).
31 - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0.
32 - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve,
33 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
34 - remove leading dots in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to remove,
35 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
36 - fixed a bug in idn ignored character processing.
37 - passes the uts46 6.0.0 testsuite except for three cases which
38 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
39 - passes the uts46 6.0.1 testsuite except for eleven cases which
40 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
41
425.31 Sun Jan 23 11:49:19 CET 2011
43 - work around a POE bug where POE would first poll for new events and
44 invoke handlers BEFORE handling the message queue.
45 - fix parsing of "domain" statement in resolv.conf (Johannes Plunien).
46 - stop_read now does just that in TLS mode. see its
47 documentation for caveats.
48 - update to common::sense 3.4 warning set (some warnings in perl impose
49 an arbitrary 32kb limit on regex matches, which affects
50 AnyEvent::Handle).
51 - AE::Handle had a broken rbuf_max method and missing wbuf_max method.
52 - new experimental AE::Handle::resettls method.
53
545.3 Fri Dec 31 05:48:13 CET 2010
55 - major IOAsync patch by Paul Evans - 0.33 is required, as the major
56 issues with IO::Async have been solved in that version, including
57 the availabilty of a default loop!
58 - implement new wbuf_max parameter for AnyEvent::Handle.
59 - added Cocoa::EventLoop backend by Daisuke Murase.
60 - the default testsuite now honors PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL (Paul Evans).
61 - clarify handle on_prepare documentation.
62 - set CLOEXEC flag on parent-side fd's in AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd,
63 to avoid leaking them to any child processes.
64 - try to force files into the arch-dependend lib directory, for the
65 half-"turly obsessive compulsive person"(s) that depend on it.
66
675.29 Sun Dec 5 10:49:21 CET 2010
68 - convert EV backend to EV 4.00 API (so better upgrade EV too).
69 - AE::Handle: implement dynamic read_size adjustment, add
70 max_read_size parameter, reduce default read_size to 2048.
71 - add some FAQ entries for servers and/or on_eof vs. on_error.
72 - work around OS bugs (cygwin again) when lingering in AE::Handle.
73 - reduce memory usage slightly when connect was used in AE::Handle.
74 - wrok around more segfaults in Tk.
75 - document tls_ctx => undef as valid.
76 - detect WNOHANG value at compiletime.
77 - include some probably linux-only support for building AnyEvent
78 as part of the perl core.
79 - improve compatibility of t/08_idna.t to perl 5.8.
80 - make AnyEvent::Strict truly optional (in case somebody builds a
81 minimal perl...).
82
835.28 Wed Oct 13 04:14:23 CEST 2010
84 - due to a glitch, AnyEvent's internal getprotobyname wasn't
85 actually used in tcp_server.
86 - implement AnyEvent::CondVar->new method, which was documented but
87 missing.
88 - support autoloading of read types in unshift_read.
89 - AnyEvent::Strict: do the test for invalid fh arguments differently,
90 resulting in more informative error messages.
91 - new AnyEvent::FAQ manpage.
92 - clarify that you can actually call push_read etc. in on_read.
93 - put keys and certs in /tmp, not into the current directory,
94 and document this in the SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS sections
95 of AnyEvent::TLS.
96 - support ";" as resolv.conf comment character in AnyEvent::DNS, as
97 requested by Ron Isaacson.
98 - document $AnyEvent::DNS::RESOLVER variable.
99 - incorporated major typo patches by Abhijit Menon-Sen.
100 - AnyEvent::Handle now croaks when negative timeouts are passed.
101 - add a shitload of TCP_xxx sockopt name constants to AnyEvent::Util,
102 undocumented, but who knows when they might come in handy.
103
1045.271 Tue Jun 8 12:05:46 CEST 2010
105 - backport to perl 5.8.x.
106
1075.27 Sun Jun 6 12:12:05 CEST 2010
108 - postpone differently in AnyEvent::Socket now, as
109 when not, canceling the connection attempt might fail
110 (found by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
111 - explicitly check for non-stream sockets in AE::Handle, too many
112 clueless people fell into the trap of this somehow working.
113 - simplified and reworked the "OTHER MODULES" section.
114 - better/more condvar examples.
115
1165.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010
117 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
118 time (found by Andy Grundman).
119
1205.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
121 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
122 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
123 by Bas Denissen).
124 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
125 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
126 EV and Perl backends.
127 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
128 backends.
129 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
130 never documented nor universally supported).
131 - some more memory ยต-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
132 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
133
1345.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
135 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
136 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
137 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
138
1395.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
140 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
141 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
142 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
143 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
144 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
145 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
146 by lucky accident on win32.
147 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
148 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
149 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
150 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
151 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
152 detection and eval.
153 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
154 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
155 (same algorithm as EV).
156 - update unicode idna mapping table.
157
1585.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
159 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
160 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
161 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
162 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
163
1645.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
165 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
166 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
167 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
168 - provide $AE::VERSION.
169 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
170
1715.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
172 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
173 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
174 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
175 when passing scalar data to extensions).
176 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
177 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
178 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
179 (John Beppu).
180 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
181 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
182 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
183 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
