3TODO: document $AnyEvent::DNS::RESOLVER 3TODO: document TCP_*** constants
4TODO: maybe remove orderign description and make this a private feature? 4TODO: catch AE::xxx for anyevent strict and anyevent debug
5TODO: anyevenmt_read_type for unshift_read 5TODO: anyevent::trace? or debug tracing all watchers?

8TODO: it's => its in the docs, it's endemic 8TODO: redesign Impl
9TODO: make ae::run mroe robust against eintr, find out which env still causes these issues Andrew Suffield
10TODO: IO::Async sometimes cancels the wrong timer when you call cancel_timer. Invest extra overhead to work around this peculiar behaviour.
11 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::DNS resource records now include
12 the TTL as fourth element - this affects ->resolve directly,
13 and ->request and ->dns_unpack indirectly. Convenience functions
14 such as AnyEvent::DNS::{a,txt,mx,srv} are not affected.
15 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: backend authors now should not implement
16 one_event or loop, but instead the AnyEvent::CondVar::_wait and _poll
17 methods.
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 - querying too long domain names would barf deep inside AnyEvent::DNS - since
23 this is hard to avoid for applications, AnyEvent:.DNS::request now checks for
24 for too long domain names explicitly and passes an undef to the callback
25 instead (reported by James Bromberger).
26 - new function: AnyEvent::postpone.
27 - IO::Async sometimes cancels the wrong timer when you call cancel_timer.
28 Invest extra overhead to work around this peculiar behaviour.
29 - split the pure perl backend into a loop module and an impl
30 module (AnyEvent::Loop and AnyEvent::Impl::Perl).
31 - some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could
32 errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own
33 (reported by Mohammad Toossi).
34 - add more workarounds around child watcher bugs in IO::Async
35 and (newly introduced) in POE.
36 - use glib child watchers and try to work around its limitations,
37 if possible (based on a patch by Kevin Ryde).
38 - add support for (currently third-party) AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK.
39 - many read types in AnyEvent::Handle would malfunction during
40 transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}".
41 (reported by Gerald Galster).
42 - resolve AnyEvent::Util::guard at first-use-time, not at load time,
43 for further speed and memory savings when not used.
44 - improve condvar blocking wait performance (probably only noticable
45 with faster backends), also make it easier for event loops that
46 do not support blocking waits.
47 - PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL now also allows full module names, although
48 the usefulness of this feature is not yet clear.

505.34 Thu May 12 09:59:41 CEST 2011
51 - AE::TLS didn't support both cert_file and key at the same time,
52 due to some copy&paste bug (reported and analyzed by vti).
53 - improve AE::Handle timeout documentation slightly.
54
555.33 Mon Feb 7 21:51:41 CET 2011
56 - never appeared on CPAN, for unknown reasons.
57 - AnyEvent::Handle on_connect_error - do not try to destroy a handle
58 object when it's already gone (analyzed by Ryan Bullock).
59 - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0.
60 - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve,
61 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
62 - remove leading dots in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to remove,
63 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
64 - fixed a bug in idn ignored character processing.
65 - passes the uts46 6.0.0 testsuite except for three cases which
66 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
67 - passes the uts46 6.0.1 testsuite except for eleven cases which
68 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
69
705.31 Sun Jan 23 11:49:19 CET 2011
71 - work around a POE bug where POE would first poll for new events and
72 invoke handlers BEFORE handling the message queue.
73 - fix parsing of "domain" statement in resolv.conf (Johannes Plunien).
74 - stop_read now does just that in TLS mode. see its
75 documentation for caveats.
76 - update to common::sense 3.4 warning set (some warnings in perl impose
77 an arbitrary 32kb limit on regex matches, which affects
78 AnyEvent::Handle).
79 - AE::Handle had a broken rbuf_max method and missing wbuf_max method.
80 - new experimental AE::Handle::resettls method.
81
825.3 Fri Dec 31 05:48:13 CET 2010
83 - major IOAsync patch by Paul Evans - 0.33 is required, as the major
84 issues with IO::Async have been solved in that version, including
85 the availabilty of a default loop!
86 - implement new wbuf_max parameter for AnyEvent::Handle.
87 - added Cocoa::EventLoop backend by Daisuke Murase.
88 - the default testsuite now honors PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL (Paul Evans).
89 - clarify handle on_prepare documentation.
90 - set CLOEXEC flag on parent-side fd's in AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd,
91 to avoid leaking them to any child processes.
92 - try to force files into the arch-dependend lib directory, for the
93 half-"turly obsessive compulsive person"(s) that depend on it.
94
955.29 Sun Dec 5 10:49:21 CET 2010
96 - convert EV backend to EV 4.00 API (so better upgrade EV too).
97 - AE::Handle: implement dynamic read_size adjustment, add
98 max_read_size parameter, reduce default read_size to 2048.
99 - add some FAQ entries for servers and/or on_eof vs. on_error.
100 - work around OS bugs (cygwin again) when lingering in AE::Handle.
101 - reduce memory usage slightly when connect was used in AE::Handle.
102 - wrok around more segfaults in Tk.
103 - document tls_ctx => undef as valid.
104 - detect WNOHANG value at compiletime.
105 - include some probably linux-only support for building AnyEvent
106 as part of the perl core.
107 - improve compatibility of t/08_idna.t to perl 5.8.
108 - make AnyEvent::Strict truly optional (in case somebody builds a
109 minimal perl...).
110
1115.28 Wed Oct 13 04:14:23 CEST 2010
112 - due to a glitch, AnyEvent's internal getprotobyname wasn't
113 actually used in tcp_server.
114 - implement AnyEvent::CondVar->new method, which was documented but
115 missing.
116 - support autoloading of read types in unshift_read.
117 - AnyEvent::Strict: do the test for invalid fh arguments differently,
118 resulting in more informative error messages.
119 - new AnyEvent::FAQ manpage.
9 - clarify that you can actually call push_read etc. in on_read. 120 - clarify that you can actually call push_read etc. in on_read.
121 - put keys and certs in /tmp, not into the current directory,
122 and document this in the SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS sections
123 of AnyEvent::TLS.
124 - support ";" as resolv.conf comment character in AnyEvent::DNS, as
125 requested by Ron Isaacson.
126 - document $AnyEvent::DNS::RESOLVER variable.
127 - incorporated major typo patches by Abhijit Menon-Sen.
128 - AnyEvent::Handle now croaks when negative timeouts are passed.
129 - add a shitload of TCP_xxx sockopt name constants to AnyEvent::Util,
130 undocumented, but who knows when they might come in handy.
