7 | - Tk cannot create windows when tainted unless you set a title, so |
| 7 | TODO: consolide slogging, e.g AnyEvent::Debug |
8 | set a dummy title for AnyEvent's dummy mainwindow. How dummy. |
| 8 | TODO: /etc/hosts, for resolve_sockaddr? |
9 | - escape any nonprintable/nonascii characters when stringifying |
| 9 | 6.01 |
10 | backtraces. |
|
|
11 | - log the reason loading an interface module fails to load at level debug. |

13 | 6.1 Tue Oct 4 19:44:30 CEST 2011 |
|
|
14 | - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the default log level is now "4" (error |
|
|
15 | and above), and some messages inside AnyEvent have been elevated |
|
|
16 | to higher log levels to print by default. |
|
|
17 | - AnyEvent::log, unlike AnyEvent::Log::log, did not always exit on fatal. |
|
|
18 | - work around yet another signal race bug, newly introduced by POE. My |
|
|
19 | how that module sucks. |
|
|
20 | - add google public ipv6 dns as fallback servers, so AE::DNS can finally |
|
|
21 | support ipv6-only operation even with defaults (also use ::1 instead |
|
|
22 | of 127.0.0.1). |
|
|
23 | - give better guidelines on how to chose a logging level. |
|
|
24 | - AnyEvent::Log can now cap (limit) log message priority by context. |
|
|
25 | - AE::log will now save and restore $! and $@, so callers don't have to. |
|
|
26 | - AE::Strict now checks that registered fds are still valid at regular |
|
|
27 | intervals. |
|
|
28 | - skip frequently called 'require' calls if the module appears loaded. |
|
|
29 | - increase signal latency test timer considerably for poor little osx, |
|
|
30 | which can't be bothered with basic posix functionality such as signal |
|
|
31 | delivery. |
|
|
32 | - mention some debugging aids in the tutorial. |
|
|
33 | - new env variable PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY. |
|
|
34 | - private (%namespace) log contexts in PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG now have the name |
|
|
35 | of the context as title. |
|
|
36 | - AnyEvent::Strict would not restore read-write access to $_ when a callback |
|
|
37 | died - this is a user bug, but since AE::Strict exists to help dbeugging... |
|
|
38 | - detect the extremely evil IO::Async::Loop::AnyEvent module and refuse |
|
|
39 | to work with it - the author is well aware of the issues but refuses |
|
|
40 | to fix them. This extreme step has been taken because the module actively |
|
|
41 | attacks the goals of AnyEvent and makes it harder for module authors to use |
|
|
42 | AnyEvent. |
|

44 | 6.02 Fri Aug 26 20:08:31 CEST 2011 |
|
|
45 | - log_to_syslog now accepts facility strings. |
|
|
46 | - log_to_syslog would not allow facilities - "$facility|$level" |
|
|
47 | *literally* means that string. sheesh. |
|
|
48 | - the CPAN parser got confused and thought we provide Sys::Syslog, try |
|
|
49 | to work around. |
|
|
50 | - renamed AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2 to FLTK. |
