9 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::DNS resource records now include
10 the TTL as fourth element - this affects ->resolve directly,
11 and ->request and ->dns_unpack indirectly. Convenience functions
12 such as AnyEvent::DNS::{a,txt,mx,srv} are not affected.
13 - some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could
14 errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own
15 (reported by Mohammad Toossi).
16 - add support for (currently third-party) AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK.
17 - many read types in AnyEvent::Handle would malfunction during
18 transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}".
19 (reported by Gerald Galster).
20 - resolve AnyEvent::Util::guard at first-use-time, not at load time,
21 for further speed and memory savings when not used.
22
235.34 Thu May 12 09:59:41 CEST 2011
24 - AE::TLS didn't support both cert_file and key at the same time,
25 due to some copy&paste bug (reported and analyzed by vti).
26 - improve AE::Handle timeout documentation slightly.
27
285.33 Mon Feb 7 21:51:41 CET 2011
29 - never appeared on CPAN, for unknown reasons.
30 - AnyEvent::Handle on_connect_error - do not try to destroy a handle
31 object when it's already gone (analyzed by Ryan Bullock).
32 - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0.
33 - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve,
34 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
35 - remove leading dots in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to remove,
36 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
37 - fixed a bug in idn ignored character processing.
38 - passes the uts46 6.0.0 testsuite except for three cases which
39 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
40 - passes the uts46 6.0.1 testsuite except for eleven cases which
41 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
42
435.31 Sun Jan 23 11:49:19 CET 2011
44 - work around a POE bug where POE would first poll for new events and
45 invoke handlers BEFORE handling the message queue.
46 - fix parsing of "domain" statement in resolv.conf (Johannes Plunien).
47 - stop_read now does just that in TLS mode. see its
48 documentation for caveats.
49 - update to common::sense 3.4 warning set (some warnings in perl impose
50 an arbitrary 32kb limit on regex matches, which affects
51 AnyEvent::Handle).
52 - AE::Handle had a broken rbuf_max method and missing wbuf_max method.
53 - new experimental AE::Handle::resettls method.
54
555.3 Fri Dec 31 05:48:13 CET 2010
56 - major IOAsync patch by Paul Evans - 0.33 is required, as the major
57 issues with IO::Async have been solved in that version, including
58 the availabilty of a default loop!
59 - implement new wbuf_max parameter for AnyEvent::Handle.
60 - added Cocoa::EventLoop backend by Daisuke Murase.
61 - the default testsuite now honors PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL (Paul Evans).
62 - clarify handle on_prepare documentation.
63 - set CLOEXEC flag on parent-side fd's in AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd,
64 to avoid leaking them to any child processes.
65 - try to force files into the arch-dependend lib directory, for the
66 half-"turly obsessive compulsive person"(s) that depend on it.
67
685.29 Sun Dec 5 10:49:21 CET 2010
69 - convert EV backend to EV 4.00 API (so better upgrade EV too).
70 - AE::Handle: implement dynamic read_size adjustment, add
71 max_read_size parameter, reduce default read_size to 2048.
72 - add some FAQ entries for servers and/or on_eof vs. on_error.
73 - work around OS bugs (cygwin again) when lingering in AE::Handle.
74 - reduce memory usage slightly when connect was used in AE::Handle.
75 - wrok around more segfaults in Tk.
76 - document tls_ctx => undef as valid.
77 - detect WNOHANG value at compiletime.
78 - include some probably linux-only support for building AnyEvent
79 as part of the perl core.
80 - improve compatibility of t/08_idna.t to perl 5.8.
81 - make AnyEvent::Strict truly optional (in case somebody builds a
82 minimal perl...).
83
845.28 Wed Oct 13 04:14:23 CEST 2010
85 - due to a glitch, AnyEvent's internal getprotobyname wasn't
86 actually used in tcp_server.
87 - implement AnyEvent::CondVar->new method, which was documented but
88 missing.
89 - support autoloading of read types in unshift_read.
90 - AnyEvent::Strict: do the test for invalid fh arguments differently,
91 resulting in more informative error messages.
92 - new AnyEvent::FAQ manpage.
93 - clarify that you can actually call push_read etc. in on_read.
94 - put keys and certs in /tmp, not into the current directory,
95 and document this in the SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS sections
96 of AnyEvent::TLS.
97 - support ";" as resolv.conf comment character in AnyEvent::DNS, as
98 requested by Ron Isaacson.
99 - document $AnyEvent::DNS::RESOLVER variable.
100 - incorporated major typo patches by Abhijit Menon-Sen.
101 - AnyEvent::Handle now croaks when negative timeouts are passed.
102 - add a shitload of TCP_xxx sockopt name constants to AnyEvent::Util,
103 undocumented, but who knows when they might come in handy.
104
1055.271 Tue Jun 8 12:05:46 CEST 2010
106 - backport to perl 5.8.x.
107
1085.27 Sun Jun 6 12:12:05 CEST 2010
109 - postpone differently in AnyEvent::Socket now, as
110 when not, canceling the connection attempt might fail
111 (found by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
112 - explicitly check for non-stream sockets in AE::Handle, too many
113 clueless people fell into the trap of this somehow working.
114 - simplified and reworked the "OTHER MODULES" section.
115 - better/more condvar examples.
116
1175.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010
118 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
119 time (found by Andy Grundman).
120
1215.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
122 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
123 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
124 by Bas Denissen).
125 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
126 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
127 EV and Perl backends.
128 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
129 backends.
130 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
131 never documented nor universally supported).
132 - some more memory ยต-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
133 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
134
1355.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
136 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
137 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
138 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
139
1405.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
141 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
142 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
143 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
144 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
145 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
146 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
147 by lucky accident on win32.
148 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
149 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
150 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
151 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
152 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
153 detection and eval.
154 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
155 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
156 (same algorithm as EV).
157 - update unicode idna mapping table.
158
1595.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
160 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
161 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
162 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
163 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
164
1655.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
166 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
167 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
168 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
169 - provide $AE::VERSION.
170 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
171
1725.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
173 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
174 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
175 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
176 when passing scalar data to extensions).
177 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
178 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
179 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
180 (John Beppu).
181 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
182 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
183 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
184 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
185

3 - fix a problem where socket consntants were called with parameters 187 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
4 (spotted by David Friedland). 188 (spotted by David Friedland).
189 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
5 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work 190 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
6 unless you rip out everything but the core). 191 unless you rip out everything but the core).
192 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
193 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
