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_LOG, for fine-grained logging config.
32 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_SHELL, to automatically start
33 a debug shell.
34 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_WRAP, to automatically enable
35 watcher instrumentation/wrapping (see AnyEvent::Debug::wrap).
36 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_HOSTS, to override the place where
37 F</etc/hosts> can be found.
38 - an empty PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF now selects the default
39 configuration.
40 - env variables can now be specified using AE_xyz instead of
41 PERL_ANYEVENT_xyz, subject to some rules.
42 - lots of new AnyEvent::Debug functionality.
43 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks for modifications $_ by the callback
44 (by setting it to readonly while executing the callback, if possible).
45 - IO::Async sometimes cancels the wrong timer when you call cancel_timer.
46 Invest extra overhead to work around this peculiar behaviour.
47 - split the pure perl backend into a loop module and an impl
48 module (AnyEvent::Loop and AnyEvent::Impl::Perl).
49 - some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could
50 errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own
51 (reported by Mohammad Toossi).
52 - AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr and all functions using it now
53 supports /etc/hosts overrides.
54 - add more workarounds around child watcher bugs in IO::Async
55 and (newly introduced) in POE.
56 - use glib child watchers and try to work around its limitations,
57 if possible (based on a patch by Kevin Ryde).
58 - add support for FLTK (fltk2), via AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2.
59 - many read types in AnyEvent::Handle would malfunction during
60 transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}".
61 (reported by Gerald Galster).
62 - improve condvar blocking wait performance (probably only noticable
63 with faster backends), also make it easier for event loops that
64 do not support blocking waits.
65 - PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL now also allows full module names, although
66 the usefulness of this feature is not yet clear.
67 - add tests for all supported event loops, conditional on PERL_ANYEVENT_LOOP_TESTS.
68 - add t/80_ssltext.t.
69 - no longer use AUTOLOAD for the initial loading (for no very good reason).
70 - tcp_server now tries to unlink unix domain sockets when it gets destroyed.
71 - do not run event loop detection multiple times when programs call their cached
72 copies of AnyEvent::detect.
73 - parse_hostport now accepts absolute paths als unix domain sockets.
74 - add Task::Weaken as dependency (as recommends only at this time).
75
766.0 (not officially released, but was on CPAN for about 15 minutes :/)
77
785.34 Thu May 12 09:59:41 CEST 2011
79 - AE::TLS didn't support both cert_file and key at the same time,
80 due to some copy&paste bug (reported and analyzed by vti).
81 - improve AE::Handle timeout documentation slightly.
82
835.33 Mon Feb 7 21:51:41 CET 2011
84 - never appeared on CPAN, for unknown reasons.
85 - AnyEvent::Handle on_connect_error - do not try to destroy a handle
86 object when it's already gone (analyzed by Ryan Bullock).
87 - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0.
88 - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve,
89 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
90 - remove leading dots in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to remove,
91 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
92 - fixed a bug in idn ignored character processing.
93 - passes the uts46 6.0.0 testsuite except for three cases which
94 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
95 - passes the uts46 6.0.1 testsuite except for eleven cases which
96 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.

9 - work around a POE bug where POE would first poll for new events and 99 - work around a POE bug where POE would first poll for new events and
10 invoke handlers BEFORE handling the message queue. 100 invoke handlers BEFORE handling the message queue.
11 - fix parsing of "domain" statement in resolv.conf (Johannes Plunien). 101 - fix parsing of "domain" statement in resolv.conf (Johannes Plunien).
12 - stop_read now does just that in TLS mode. see its 102 - stop_read now does just that in TLS mode. see its
13 documentation for caveats. 103 documentation for caveats.
14 - update to common::sense 3.4 warning set. 104 - update to common::sense 3.4 warning set (some warnings in perl impose
105 an arbitrary 32kb limit on regex matches, which affects
106 AnyEvent::Handle).
107 - AE::Handle had a broken rbuf_max method and missing wbuf_max method.
108 - new experimental AE::Handle::resettls method.
