1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. 1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
2 2
3TODO: document TCP_*** constants
4
5TODO: log message level redistribute?
6TODO: AE::logger
7TODO: add debug/trace logging to some modules
8TODO: poe child watcher hang?
9TODO: max syslog level,e xg says to cap?
10 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the default log level is now "4" (error
11 and above), and some messages inside AnyEvent have been elevated
12 to higher log levels to print by default.
13 - AnyEvent::log, unlike AnyEvent::Log::log, did not always exit on fatal.
14 - add google public ipv6 dns as fallback servers, so AE::DNS can finally
15 support ipv6-only operation even with defaults (also use ::1 instead
16 of 127.0.0.1).
17 - give better guidelines on how to chose a logging level.
18 - AE::Strict now checks that registered fds are still valid at regular
19 intervals.
20 - skip frequently called 'require' calls if the module appears loaded.
21 - increase signal latency test timer considerably for poor little osx.
22 - mention some debugging aids in the tutorial.
23 - detect the extremely evil IO::Async::Loop::AnyEvent module and refuse
24 to work with it - the author is well aware of the issues but refuses
25 to fix them. This extreme step has been taken because the module actively
26 attacks the goals of AnyEvent and makes it harder for module authors to use
27 AnyEvent.
28
296.02 Fri Aug 26 20:08:31 CEST 2011
30 - log_to_syslog now accepts facility strings.
31 - log_to_syslog would not allow facilities - "$facility|$level"
32 *literally* means that string. sheesh.
33 - the CPAN parser got confused and thought we provide Sys::Syslog, try
34 to work around.
35 - renamed AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2 to FLTK.
36
376.01 Fri Aug 26 07:04:11 CEST 2011
38 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::DNS resource records now include
39 the TTL as fourth element - this affects ->resolve, ->request
40 and ->dns_unpack indirectly. Convenience functions such as
41 AnyEvent::DNS::{a,txt,mx,srv} are not affected, neither is
42 AnyEvent::Socket.
43 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: backend authors now should not implement
44 one_event or loop, but instead the AnyEvent::CondVar::_wait and _poll
45 methods.
46 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: verbosity levels have been redefined, see
47 AnyEvent (PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE) and AnyEvent::Log for details.
48 - DEPRECIATION: please change
49 "use AnyEvent::Impl::Perl" to "use AnyEvent::Loop" and
50 "AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop" to "AnyEvent::Loop::run"
51 in your programs, for future compatibility.
52 - *blush* idle watcher emulation was borked.
53 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks the AE::xxx functions as well.
54 - querying too long domain names would barf deep inside AnyEvent::DNS - since
55 this is hard to avoid for applications, AnyEvent:.DNS::request now checks for
56 for too long domain names explicitly and passes an undef to the callback
57 instead (reported by James Bromberger).
58 - make AnyEvent::Util more robust against EINTR (analyzed by Andrew Suffield).
59 - new functions: AnyEvent::postpone, AnyEvent::log.
60 - new module: AnyEvent::Log, for simple logging needs.
61 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG, for fine-grained logging config.
62 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_SHELL, to automatically start
63 a debug shell.
64 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_WRAP, to automatically enable
65 watcher instrumentation/wrapping (see AnyEvent::Debug::wrap).
66 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_HOSTS, to override the place where
67 /etc/hosts can be found.
68 - an empty PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF now selects the default
69 configuration.
70 - env variables can now be specified using AE_xyz instead of
71 PERL_ANYEVENT_xyz, subject to some rules.
72 - lots of new AnyEvent::Debug functionality.
73 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks for modifications $_ by the callback
74 (by setting it to readonly while executing the callback, if possible).
75 - IO::Async sometimes cancels the wrong timer when you call cancel_timer.
76 Invest extra overhead to work around this peculiar behaviour.
77 - split the pure perl backend into a loop module and an impl
78 module (AnyEvent::Loop and AnyEvent::Impl::Perl).
79 - some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could
80 errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own
81 (reported by Mohammad Toossi).
82 - AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr and all functions using it now
83 supports /etc/hosts overrides.
84 - add more workarounds around child watcher bugs in IO::Async
85 and (newly introduced) in POE.
86 - use glib child watchers and try to work around its limitations,
87 if possible (based on a patch by Kevin Ryde).
88 - add support for FLTK (fltk2), via AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2.
89 - many read types in AnyEvent::Handle would malfunction during
90 transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}".
91 (reported by Gerald Galster).
92 - improve condvar blocking wait performance (probably only noticable
93 with faster backends), also make it easier for event loops that
94 do not support blocking waits.
95 - PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL now also allows full module names, although
96 the usefulness of this feature is not yet clear.
97 - add tests for all supported event loops, conditional on PERL_ANYEVENT_LOOP_TESTS.
98 - add t/80_ssltext.t.
99 - no longer use AUTOLOAD for the initial loading (for no very good reason).
100 - tcp_server now tries to unlink unix domain sockets when it gets destroyed.
101 - do not run event loop detection multiple times when programs call their cached
102 copies of AnyEvent::detect.
103 - parse_hostport now accepts absolute paths als unix domain sockets.
104 - suppress the idiotic warning inside POE by patching the POE::Kernel
105 run flags instead of asking the user to jump through contortions.
106 - add Task::Weaken as dependency (as recommends only at this time).
107 - replace PF_UNSPEC by 0, for good old minix.
108
1096.0 (not officially released, but was on CPAN for about 15 minutes :/)
110
1115.34 Thu May 12 09:59:41 CEST 2011
112 - AE::TLS didn't support both cert_file and key at the same time,
113 due to some copy&paste bug (reported and analyzed by vti).
114 - improve AE::Handle timeout documentation slightly.
115
1165.33 Mon Feb 7 21:51:41 CET 2011
117 - never appeared on CPAN, for unknown reasons.
118 - AnyEvent::Handle on_connect_error - do not try to destroy a handle
119 object when it's already gone (analyzed by Ryan Bullock).
120 - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0.
121 - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve,
122 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
123 - remove leading dots in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to remove,
124 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
125 - fixed a bug in idn ignored character processing.
126 - passes the uts46 6.0.0 testsuite except for three cases which
127 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
128 - passes the uts46 6.0.1 testsuite except for eleven cases which
129 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
130
1315.31 Sun Jan 23 11:49:19 CET 2011
132 - work around a POE bug where POE would first poll for new events and
133 invoke handlers BEFORE handling the message queue.
134 - fix parsing of "domain" statement in resolv.conf (Johannes Plunien).
135 - stop_read now does just that in TLS mode. see its
136 documentation for caveats.
137 - update to common::sense 3.4 warning set (some warnings in perl impose
138 an arbitrary 32kb limit on regex matches, which affects
139 AnyEvent::Handle).
140 - AE::Handle had a broken rbuf_max method and missing wbuf_max method.
141 - new experimental AE::Handle::resettls method.
142
1435.3 Fri Dec 31 05:48:13 CET 2010
144 - major IOAsync patch by Paul Evans - 0.33 is required, as the major
145 issues with IO::Async have been solved in that version, including
146 the availabilty of a default loop!
147 - implement new wbuf_max parameter for AnyEvent::Handle.
148 - added Cocoa::EventLoop backend by Daisuke Murase.
149 - the default testsuite now honors PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL (Paul Evans).
150 - clarify handle on_prepare documentation.
151 - set CLOEXEC flag on parent-side fd's in AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd,
152 to avoid leaking them to any child processes.
153 - try to force files into the arch-dependend lib directory, for the
154 half-"turly obsessive compulsive person"(s) that depend on it.
155
1565.29 Sun Dec 5 10:49:21 CET 2010
157 - convert EV backend to EV 4.00 API (so better upgrade EV too).
158 - AE::Handle: implement dynamic read_size adjustment, add
159 max_read_size parameter, reduce default read_size to 2048.
160 - add some FAQ entries for servers and/or on_eof vs. on_error.
161 - work around OS bugs (cygwin again) when lingering in AE::Handle.
162 - reduce memory usage slightly when connect was used in AE::Handle.
163 - wrok around more segfaults in Tk.
164 - document tls_ctx => undef as valid.
165 - detect WNOHANG value at compiletime.
166 - include some probably linux-only support for building AnyEvent
167 as part of the perl core.
168 - improve compatibility of t/08_idna.t to perl 5.8.
169 - make AnyEvent::Strict truly optional (in case somebody builds a
170 minimal perl...).
171
1725.28 Wed Oct 13 04:14:23 CEST 2010
173 - due to a glitch, AnyEvent's internal getprotobyname wasn't
174 actually used in tcp_server.
175 - implement AnyEvent::CondVar->new method, which was documented but
176 missing.
177 - support autoloading of read types in unshift_read.
178 - AnyEvent::Strict: do the test for invalid fh arguments differently,
179 resulting in more informative error messages.
180 - new AnyEvent::FAQ manpage.
181 - clarify that you can actually call push_read etc. in on_read.
182 - put keys and certs in /tmp, not into the current directory,
183 and document this in the SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS sections
184 of AnyEvent::TLS.
185 - support ";" as resolv.conf comment character in AnyEvent::DNS, as
186 requested by Ron Isaacson.
187 - document $AnyEvent::DNS::RESOLVER variable.
188 - incorporated major typo patches by Abhijit Menon-Sen.
189 - AnyEvent::Handle now croaks when negative timeouts are passed.
190 - add a shitload of TCP_xxx sockopt name constants to AnyEvent::Util,
191 undocumented, but who knows when they might come in handy.
192
1935.271 Tue Jun 8 12:05:46 CEST 2010
194 - backport to perl 5.8.x.
195
1965.27 Sun Jun 6 12:12:05 CEST 2010
197 - postpone differently in AnyEvent::Socket now, as
198 when not, canceling the connection attempt might fail
199 (found by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
200 - explicitly check for non-stream sockets in AE::Handle, too many
201 clueless people fell into the trap of this somehow working.
202 - simplified and reworked the "OTHER MODULES" section.
203 - better/more condvar examples.
204
2055.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010
206 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
207 time (found by Andy Grundman).
208
2095.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
210 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
211 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
212 by Bas Denissen).
213 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
214 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
215 EV and Perl backends.
216 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
217 backends.
218 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
219 never documented nor universally supported).
220 - some more memory ยต-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
221 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
222
2235.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
224 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
225 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
226 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
227
2285.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
229 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
230 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
231 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
232 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
233 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
234 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
235 by lucky accident on win32.
236 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
237 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
238 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
239 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
240 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
241 detection and eval.
242 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
243 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
244 (same algorithm as EV).
245 - update unicode idna mapping table.
246
2475.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
248 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
249 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
250 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
251 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
252
2535.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
254 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
255 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
256 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
257 - provide $AE::VERSION.
258 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
259
2605.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
261 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
262 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
263 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
264 when passing scalar data to extensions).
265 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
266 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
267 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
268 (John Beppu).
269 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
270 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
271 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
272 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
273
2745.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
275 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
276 (spotted by David Friedland).
277 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
278 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
279 unless you rip out everything but the core).
280 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
281 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
282
2835.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
284 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
285 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
286 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
287 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
288 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
289
2905.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
291 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
292 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
293 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
294 (analysed by elmex).
295
2965.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
297 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
298 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
299 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
300 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
301 AnyEvent::Handle.
302 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
303 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
304 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
305 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
306
3075.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
308 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
309 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
310 by Michael S. Fischer).
311 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
312 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
313 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
314 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
315 by default.
316 - fix some prototypes.
317 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
318 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
319
3205.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
321 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
322 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
323 - port to broken win32 perls.
324
3255.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
326 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
327 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
328 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
329 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
330 OSes as well).
331
3325.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
333 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
334 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
335 to reduce dependency on JSON.
336
3375.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
338 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
339 one (was broken since 4.91).
340 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
341 when retrying a tcp_connect.
342 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
343 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
344
3455.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
346 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
347
3485.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
349 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
350 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
351 in AnyEvent::Handle.
352 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
353 settings.
354 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
355 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
356 exporting the probe function).
357 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
358 code to work around it's watcher limits.
359 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
360 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
361 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
362 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
363 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
364
3654.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
366 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
367 already contains some TLS handshake.
368 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
369 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
370 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
371 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
372 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
373
3744.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
375 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
376 a negative value, so avoid that.
377 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
378 after the condition is already signalled.
379 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
380 data.
381 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
382 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
383 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
384 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
385 any issues).
386 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
387 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
388 by name (not name or number).
389 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
390 only compiling signal code when necessary.
391 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
392 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
393 said future/alternative API.
394 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
395
3964.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
397 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
398 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
399 (analysed by elmex).
400
4014.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
402 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
403 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
404 for errors after every push_write etc.
405 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
406 platforms.
407
4084.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
409 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
410 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
411 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
412 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
413 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
414 tutorial accordingly.
415 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
416
4174.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
418 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
419 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
420 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
421 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
422 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
423 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
424 in IO::Async.
425
4264.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
427 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
428 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
429 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
430 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
431 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
432 documentation.
433 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
434 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
435 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
436 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
437 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
438 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
439
4404.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
441 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
442 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
443 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
444 this trap.
445 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
446 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
447 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
448 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
449 on_read callbacks.
450 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
451
4524.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
453 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
454 callbacks.
455 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
456 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
457 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
458 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
459 Event::Lib.
460 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
461 to rarely fail.
462
4634.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
464 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
465 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
466 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
467 in AnyEvent->io.
468 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
469 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
470 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
471 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
472 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
473 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
474 portable_socketpair.
475 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
476 YMMV.
477
4784.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009
479 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
480 uppercase targets.
481 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
482 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
483 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
484 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
485 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
486 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
487 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
488 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
489 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
490 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
491 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
492 in the common case.
493 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
494 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
495 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
496 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
497 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
498 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
499 from the constructor.
500 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
501 then fall back to JSON.
502 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
503 and because it was documented that way.
504
5054.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
506 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
507 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
508
5094.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
510 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
511 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
512 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
513 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
514 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
515 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
516 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
517 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
518 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
519
5204.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
521 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
522 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
523 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
524 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
525 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
526
5274.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
528 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
529 and set it on the default resolver.
530 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
531 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
532 when running in tainted mode.
533 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
