9 | the TTL as fourth element - this affects ->resolve, ->request |
| 12 | and ->request and ->dns_unpack indirectly. Convenience functions |
10 | and ->dns_unpack indirectly. Convenience functions such as |
| 13 | such as AnyEvent::DNS::{a,txt,mx,srv} are not affected. |
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 | - IO::Async sometimes cancels the wrong timer when you call cancel_timer. |
|
|
38 | Invest extra overhead to work around this peculiar behaviour. |
|
|
39 | - split the pure perl backend into a loop module and an impl |
|
|
40 | module (AnyEvent::Loop and AnyEvent::Impl::Perl). |
| 14 | - some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could |
41 | - some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could |
| 15 | errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own |
42 | errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own |
| 16 | (reported by Mohammad Toossi). |
43 | (reported by Mohammad Toossi). |
| 17 | - add support for (currently third-party) AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK. |
44 | - add more workarounds around child watcher bugs in IO::Async |
|
|
45 | and (newly introduced) in POE. |
|
|
46 | - use glib child watchers and try to work around its limitations, |
|
|
47 | if possible (based on a patch by Kevin Ryde). |
|
|
48 | - add support for FLTK (fltk2), via AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2. |
| 18 | - many read types in AnyEvent::Handle would malfunction during |

| 19 | transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}". |
50 | transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}". |
| 20 | (reported by Gerald Galster). |
51 | (reported by Gerald Galster). |
|
|
52 | - improve condvar blocking wait performance (probably only noticable |
|
|
53 | with faster backends), also make it easier for event loops that |
|
|
54 | do not support blocking waits. |
|
|
55 | - PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL now also allows full module names, although |
|
|
56 | the usefulness of this feature is not yet clear. |
|
|
57 | - add tests for all supported event loops, conditional on PERL_ANYEVENT_LOOP_TESTS. |
|
|
58 | - add t/80_ssltext.t. |
|
|
59 | - no longer use AUTOLOAD for the initial loading (for no very good reason). |
|
|
60 | - tcp_server now tries to unlink unix domain sockets when it gets destroyed. |
|
|
61 | - do not run event loop detection multiple times when programs call their cached |
|
|
62 | copies of AnyEvent::detect. |
|
|
63 | - parse_hostport now accepts absolute paths als unix domain sockets. |
