10TODO: leka on guard undef resolve (sten)
11 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton did not work when dns resolution was
12 used to find the addresses (analyzed and patch by Maxime Soulé).
13 - fix a memory leak in the /etc/hosts lookup code when hosts don't
14 resolve and are not in hosts (analyzed by sten).
15
167.02 Tue Aug 14 04:27:58 CEST 2012
17 - AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd could block indefinitely (analyzed and test
18 program by Yorhel).
19 - verified that AnyEvent::Socket follows RFC5952.
20 - try to parse "ADDR#PORT" in addition to "ADDR PORT".
21
227.01 Sun May 13 01:03:17 CEST 2012
23 - fail with EPROTO in AnyEvent::Handle wqhen TLS is requested but
24 not available, instead of throwing an exception.
25 - use File::Spec to get the tmpdir in t/*, to avoid needless
26 failures on (most, not mine :) windows boxes.
27 - new handle read types: tls_detect and tls_autostart.
28
297.0 Fri Apr 13 06:33:30 CEST 2012
30 - child watchers are broken in POE 1.352 (also many earlier
31 versions) and there seems to be no way to work around it, as POE
32 itself is inherently racy. Document this regression and add a delay
33 in t/68_poe_03_child.t for the time being.
34 - new module AnyEvent::IO, that is a frontend to either a pure-perl
35 synchronous I/O implementation (AnyEvent::IO::Perl), or to the
36 asynchronous I/O extension IO::AIO (AnyEvent::IO::IOAIO).
37 - load /etc/hosts only when DNS has no answer.
38 - stat /etc/hosts on every access and reload it if it changed.
39 - load /etc/hosts via AnyEvent::IO - potentially asynchronous.
40 - fix a buggy croak in the dh parameter reading in AnyEvent::TLS.
41 - AnyEvent::Log log_to_file and log_to_path now use AnyEvent::IO. As
42 a side effect, they now use true appending as opposed to libc
43 appending, and the file might not have been opened when the function
44 returns.
45 - the default logging level was not properly documented in a variety of
46 places, this has hopefully been rectified.
47 - updated uts46data.pl for unicode 6.1.0.
48 - made log messages generated by AnyEvent submodules not
49 include the package name anymore, as it will be logged
50 by default already.
51 - upgrade to the trick used by common-sense 3.5 to work
52 around extra warning torture/breakage under perl 5.15.x.
53 - log messages by anyevent are now ucfirst, are usually full
54 sentences and do no longer include the package name.
55 - the storable read type would sometimes throw an exception instead
56 of causing EBADMSG (analyzed by Maxime Soulé).
57 - work around a bug in openssl 1.0.1 which enforces a minimum rsa
58 keysize (reported by Paul Howarth).
59 - documented Rocco fabricating statements about AnyEvent and me.
60
616.14 Tue Jan 31 20:00:24 CET 2012
62 - AnyEvent::Impl::Tk was broken due to a mysterious "die" inside,
63 probably an editing mistake (reported by Darin McBride).
64
656.13 Thu Jan 12 07:27:01 CET 2012
66 - AnyEvent::Util::fork_call checked for POSIX availability in the wrong way,
67 causing it to fail if POSIX wasn't loaded already (analysed by Rock Power).
68 - AnyEvent::Handle::push_read (line => did pass $1 directly, so
69 regex-matching inside the callback would change the parameter, despite
70 $1 being dynamically scoped per-block. this perl bug is now being
71 worked around (testcase by Cindy Wang).
72
736.12 Mon Dec 12 13:21:10 CET 2011
74 - $! was clobbered by subsequent calls in tcp_connect, due to
75 the postpone not saving/restoring it (analyzed by Richard Garnish).
76
776.11 Tue Nov 22 10:36:05 CET 2011
78 - Tk cannot create windows when tainted unless you set a title, so
79 set a dummy title for AnyEvent's dummy mainwindow. How dummy.
80 - escape any nonprintable/nonascii characters when stringifying
81 backtraces.
82 - log the reason loading an interface module fails to load at level debug.
