15
16 - Only call tlsext_host_name for non-empty common names (reported
17 by Maxime Soulé).
18 - log a (single) notice message if SNI is not supported.
19
207.12 Wed Jan 27 19:12:26 CET 2016
21 - use common name as hostname for tls connects, if Net::SSLeay
22 supports SNI.
23 - fix documentation of tls_autostart read type in AnyEvent::Handle,
24 analyzed by Felix Ostmann.
25
267.11 Thu Jul 16 14:36:00 CEST 2015
27 - AnyEvent::Socket::parse_ipv6 could accept malformed ipv6
28 addresses (extra "::" at end and similar cases).
29 - add a more explicit warning to AnyEvent::Handle that it doesn't
30 work on files, people keep getting confused.
31 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::tcp_bind.
32 - new functions AnyEvent::fh_block and AnyEvent::fh_unblock.
33 - aligned ipv6 address formatting with RFC 5952 (by not shortening
34 a single :0: to ::).
35 - added stability canary support.
36
377.09 Sat May 2 16:38:53 CEST 2015
38 - AnyEvent::Debug called an internal function (AnyEvent::Log::ft)
39 that was renamed to AnyEvent::Log:format_time. uinder its old name
40 (analyzed by Michael Stovenour).
41 - update AnyEvent::DNS fallback resolver addresses:
42 seems google effectively killed most other free dns resolvers,
43 so remove them, but add cable and wireless (ecrc) since it was
44 stable for 20 years or so, official or not, and there should be
45 an alternative to google.
46 - perl5porters broke windows error codes in 5.20, and mapped
47 WSAEWOULDBLOCK on the (different) EWOULDBLOCK error code, and
48 WSAEINPROGRESS into the incompatible ERINPROGRESS code, probably
49 because they were so cool. They probably broke other error codes
50 for no reason, too, but I didn't care for checking, it's too
51 depressing. This version only works around the WSAEWOULDBLOCK
52 issue, because I don't have a nice way to work around the
53 WSAEINPROGRESS bug.
54
557.08 Wed Dec 10 05:27:17 CET 2014
56 - work around a newly introduced bug in Socket 2.011 (an
57 errornous sun_length check) (analyzed by Maxime Soulé).
58 - AnyEvent::TLS didn't load (but refer to) AnyEvent::Socket
59 (analyzed by Ben Magistro).
60 - AnyEvent::Strict will now confess, not croak. This is in line with
61 it being a development/debugging tool.
62 - work around a number of libglib bugs (debug builds of libglib enforce
63 certain undocumented behaviour patterns such as not being able to
64 remove a child watch source after it has fired, which we will try
65 to emulate to avoid "criticals". what where they thinking...).
66 - mention json security issues in AnyEvent::Handle, now that Douglas
67 Crockford has foolishly and incompatibly changed JSON.
68 - changed default dns resolver "max_outstanding" value from 1 to 10,
69 the latter beinfg the intended value all along
70 (reported by Ilya Chesnokov).
71 - added new "AnyEvent::Impl::UV" interface module to the UV event lib
72 (written by Mike Lowell).
73
747.07 Tue Dec 17 17:45:02 CET 2013
75 - the documentation for custom tls verify schemes was wrong. make it agree
76 with the code (reported by Maxime Soulé).
77 - added cbor read and write types to AnyEvent::Handle (using CBOR::XS).
78 - work around an API change in openssl that could cause wrong tls connection
79 aborts, likely on windows only (analyzed by sten).
80 - calling AnyEvent->now_update with AnyEvent::Impl::Perl caused an
81 endless loop (reported by Dietrich Rebmann).
82 - add tlsv1_1 and tlsv1_2 protocols to AnyEvent::TLS
83 (patch by Maxime Soulé).
84 - document AnyEvent::Impl::IOAsync::set_loop and
85 $AnyEvent::Impl::IOAsync::LOOP. Though only documented now, this
86 functionality has _always_ been available.
87 - force a toplevel domain name in t/81_hosts.t (analyzed by
88 David Jack Wange Olrik).
89 - document that AnyEvent::Log uses AnyEvent::IO.
90 - warn about AnyEvent::Filesys::Notify performance.
91 - praise the joys of AnyEvent::Fork::*.
92 - time for an =encoding directive.
93 - do no longer use JSON to create a default json coder, use
94 JSON::XS or JSON::PP directly.
95
967.05 Wed Aug 21 10:38:08 CEST 2013
97 - uts46data.pl couldn't be found due to wrong naming of the file
98 (reported by Fulko Hew).
99 - handle lone \015's properly in AE::Handle's default line read
100 (reported by various people).
101 - untaint ip addresses found in /etc/hosts (patch by José Micó).
102 - the memleak fix in 7.03 caused resolving via /etc/hosts to always
103 fail on first use (reported and testcase by Andrew Whatson).
104 - expose AnyEvent::Log::format_time, and allow users to redefine it.
105 - expose AnyEvent::Log::default_format, and allow redefinition.
106 - expose AnyEvent::Log::fatal_exit, to allow redefinition.
107 - AnyEvent::Debug shell can now run coro shell commands, if available.
108 - t/63* tests were wrongly in MANIFEST.
109 - kernel.org's finger server went MIA, switch to freebsd.org and
110 icculus.org.
111 - clarify that IO::AIO and AnyEvent::AIO are needed for AnyEvent::IO
112 to function asynchronously (reported by Daniel Carosone).
113 - hard-disable $^W in most tests, it generates too much garbage output.
114 - use a (hopefully) more future-proof method to emulate common::sense.
115 - upgrade to UTS-46:6.2.0.
116 - switch to INSTLIB from INSTLIBDIR, as INSTLIBDIR was wrongly
117 documented. should not affect anything.
118
1197.04 Thu Nov 15 02:23:58 CET 2012
120 - debugging code left in.
121
1227.03 Thu Nov 15 02:16:11 CET 2012
123 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton did not work when dns resolution was
124 used to find the addresses (analyzed and patch by Maxime Soulé).
125 - fix a memory leak in the /etc/hosts lookup code when hosts don't
126 resolve and are not in hosts (analyzed by sten).
127
1287.02 Tue Aug 14 04:27:58 CEST 2012
129 - AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd could block indefinitely (analyzed and test
130 program by Yorhel).
131 - verified that AnyEvent::Socket follows RFC5952.
132 - try to parse "ADDR#PORT" in addition to "ADDR PORT".
133
1347.01 Sun May 13 01:03:17 CEST 2012
135 - fail with EPROTO in AnyEvent::Handle wqhen TLS is requested but
136 not available, instead of throwing an exception.
137 - use File::Spec to get the tmpdir in t/*, to avoid needless
138 failures on (most, not mine :) windows boxes.
139 - new handle read types: tls_detect and tls_autostart.
140
1417.0 Fri Apr 13 06:33:30 CEST 2012
142 - child watchers are broken in POE 1.352 (also many earlier
143 versions) and there seems to be no way to work around it, as POE
144 itself is inherently racy. Document this regression and add a delay
145 in t/68_poe_03_child.t for the time being.
146 - new module AnyEvent::IO, that is a frontend to either a pure-perl
147 synchronous I/O implementation (AnyEvent::IO::Perl), or to the
148 asynchronous I/O extension IO::AIO (AnyEvent::IO::IOAIO).
149 - load /etc/hosts only when DNS has no answer.
150 - stat /etc/hosts on every access and reload it if it changed.
151 - load /etc/hosts via AnyEvent::IO - potentially asynchronous.
152 - fix a buggy croak in the dh parameter reading in AnyEvent::TLS.
153 - AnyEvent::Log log_to_file and log_to_path now use AnyEvent::IO. As
154 a side effect, they now use true appending as opposed to libc
155 appending, and the file might not have been opened when the function
156 returns.
157 - the default logging level was not properly documented in a variety of
158 places, this has hopefully been rectified.
159 - updated uts46data.pl for unicode 6.1.0.
160 - made log messages generated by AnyEvent submodules not
161 include the package name anymore, as it will be logged
162 by default already.
163 - upgrade to the trick used by common-sense 3.5 to work
164 around extra warning torture/breakage under perl 5.15.x.
165 - log messages by anyevent are now ucfirst, are usually full
166 sentences and do no longer include the package name.
167 - the storable read type would sometimes throw an exception instead
168 of causing EBADMSG (analyzed by Maxime Soulé).
169 - work around a bug in openssl 1.0.1 which enforces a minimum rsa
170 keysize (reported by Paul Howarth).
171 - documented Rocco fabricating statements about AnyEvent and me.
172
1736.14 Tue Jan 31 20:00:24 CET 2012
174 - AnyEvent::Impl::Tk was broken due to a mysterious "die" inside,
175 probably an editing mistake (reported by Darin McBride).

7 - AnyEvent::Util::fork_call checked for POSIX availability in the wrong way, 178 - AnyEvent::Util::fork_call checked for POSIX availability in the wrong way,
8 causing it to fail if POSIX wasn't loaded already (analysed by Rock Power). 179 causing it to fail if POSIX wasn't loaded already (analysed by Rock Power).
