2 2
34.92
4 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
5 in AnyEvent::Handle.
6 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
7 settings.
8 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV is the backend.
9
104.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
11 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
12 already contains some TLS handshake.
13 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
14 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
15 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
16 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
17 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
18
194.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
20 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
21 a negative value, so avoid that.
22 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
23 after the condition is already signalled.
24 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
25 data.
26 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
27 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
28 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
29 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
30 any issues).
31 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
32 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
33 by name (not name or number).
34 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
35 only compiling signal code when necessary.
36 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
37 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
38 said future/alternative API.
39 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
40
414.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
42 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
43 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
44 (analyzed by elmex).
45
464.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
47 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
48 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
49 for errors after every push_write etc.
50 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
51 platforms.
52
534.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
54 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
55 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
56 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
57 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
58 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
59 tutorial accordingly.
60 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
61
624.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
63 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
64 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
65 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
66 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
67 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
68 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
69 in IO::Async.
70
714.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
72 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
73 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
74 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
75 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
76 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
77 documentation.
78 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
79 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
80 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
81 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
82 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
83 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
84
854.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
86 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
87 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
88 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
89 this trap.
90 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
91 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
92 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
93 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
94 on_read callbacks.
95 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
96
974.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
98 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
99 callbacks.
100 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
101 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
102 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
103 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
104 Event::Lib.
105 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
106 to rarely fail.
107
1084.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
109 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
110 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
111 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
112 in AnyEvent->io.
113 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
114 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
115 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
116 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
117 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
118 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
119 portable_socketpair.
120 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
121 YMMV.
122
1234.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009
124 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
125 uppercase targets.
126 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
127 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
128 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
129 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
130 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
131 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
132 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
133 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
134 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
135 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
136 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
137 in the common case.
138 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
139 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
140 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
141 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
142 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
143 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
144 from the constructor.
145 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
146 then fall back to JSON.
147 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
148 and because it was documented that way.
149
1504.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
151 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
152 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
153
1544.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
155 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
156 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
157 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
158 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
159 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
160 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
161 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
162 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
163 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
164
1654.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
166 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
167 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
168 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
169 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
170 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
171
1724.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
173 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
174 and set it on the default resolver.
175 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
176 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
177 when running in tainted mode.
178 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
179
1804.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
181 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
182
1834.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
184 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
185 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
186 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
187 destructors.
188 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
189 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
190 implementation.
191 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
192 for cosmetic reasons.
193
1944.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
195 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
196 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
197 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
198 - sped up Tk timer handling.
199 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
200 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
201 - fix Qt timers without interval.
202 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.
203
2044.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
205 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
206 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
207 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
208
2094.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
210 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
211 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
212 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
213 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
214
2154.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
216 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
217 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
218 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
219 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
220 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
221 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
222 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
223 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
224 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
225 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
226 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
227
2284.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
229 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
230 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
231 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
232 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
233 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
234 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
235 backend.
236 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
237
2384.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
239 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
240 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
241 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
242 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
243 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
244 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
245
2464.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
247 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
248 illegal.
249 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
250 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
251 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
252 by Adam Rosenstein).
253 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
254 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
255 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
256
2574.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
258 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
259 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
260 the socket type.
261 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
262
2634.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
264 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
265 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
266 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
267 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
268 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
269 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
270
2714.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
272 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
273 unless one has been installed already.
274 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
275 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
276 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
277 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
278 client would first wait for some data by the server and
279 otherwise hang. (reported and analyzed in an absolutely
280 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
281 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
282 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
283 (reported and analyzed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
284 Rosenstein).
285 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
286 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
287 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
288 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
289 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
290 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
291 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
292 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
293 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
294 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
295 now, more to come, though.
296 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
297
2984.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
299 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
300 no trace events.
301 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
302 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
303 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
304 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
305 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
306 Time::HiRes).
307
3084.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
309 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
310 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
311
3124.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
313 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
314 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
315 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
316 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
317
3184.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
319 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
320 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
321 perls without resource leaks or worse).
322
3234.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
324 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
325 the callback.
326 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
327 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
328 eol marker.
329 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
330 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
331 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
332
3334.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
334 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
335 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
336 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
337 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
338 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
339
3404.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
341 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
342 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
343 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
344 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
345 unusable way.
346 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
347 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
348 K. Sharifulin).
349
3504.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
351 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
352 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
353 be delayed under some circumstances.
354 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
355 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
356 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
357 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
358 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
359 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
360
3614.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
362 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
363 assumption that all data could be written before read
364 (reported by Jim Razmus).
365
3664.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
367 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
368 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
369 implementation (also affected child watchers).
370 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
371
3724.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
373 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
374 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
375 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
376
3774.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
378 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
379 works.
380
3814.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
382 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
383 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
384 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
385 for AnyEvent::Handle.
386 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
387 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
388
3894.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
390 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
391 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
392 executing the guard block as warnings.
393 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
394
3954.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
396 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
397 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
398 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
399 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
400 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
401 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
402 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
403 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
404 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
405 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
406 enter an endless loop.
407 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
408 busy again after idling.
409 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
410 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
411 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
412 (hopefully).
413 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
414 away any time.
415
4164.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
417 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
418 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
419 - allow more options in on_error.
420
4214.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008
422 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace ptr by real PTR lookup, provide
423 reverse_lookup and reverse_verify to replace it, support
424 v4mapped and v4compat addresses.
425 - provide more documentation for the resolver class.
426 - really replace longest run of :0: by :: in format_address,
427 also properly convert :: and ::1 again.
428 - support NAPTR record name and decode it.
429 - implement random weight sampling for SRV records, as per
430 rfc 2782.
431 - correctly abort on srv-record targets of ".".
432 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot.
433 - in the unlikely event of a virtual circuit connection
434 being invalidated by a delayed udp reply, AnyEvent::DNS
435 could die. this has been fixed.
436 - plug a probable memleak in the DNS vc code.
437 - use configured timeout also for VC request phase.
438 - implement timeout and max_outstanding methods
439 for resolver class.
440 - update version numbers in all modules.
441
4424.1 Thu May 29 05:45:40 CEST 2008
443 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed xxx_ip functions to xxx_address
444 which mirrors their purpose better (old names still available
445 for a while). Also moved AnyEvent::DNS::addr to
446 AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr.
447 - implement AnyEvent->time and AnyEvent->now.
448 - fix IPv6 support in pack_sockaddr.
449 - officially un-experimentalise all newly introduced code.
450 - support unix domain sockets everywhere by specifying
451 a host of "unix/" and the pathname as service.
452 - implement an activity timeout in AnyEvent::Handle.
453 - added a regex read type to AnyEvent::Handle.
454 - added a json read/write type to AnyEvent::Handle.
455 - always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle.
456 - document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
457 - implement AnyEvent::Util::fork_call.
458 - add support for IPv6 nameservers and nameserver statements.
459 - work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty
460 select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this
461 workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops,
462 but EV also works around this).
463 - supply AnyEvent::Socket::address_type and make good use of it.
464 - clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle
465 vs. callback arguments.
466 - add some recommends to the META.yml.
467
4684.05 Mon May 26 19:44:06 CEST 2008
469 - some platforms ignore the rfc and prepend an extra sa_len member to
470 the sockaddr structure, cater for those. also use sockaddr_family,
471 didn't know it was there, but comes in handy for the workaround.
472 - undo the import WIN32 hack.
473
4744.04 Mon May 26 08:03:31 CEST 2008
475 - try to work around yet another windows bug: failed connects are reported
476 as if it were out-of-band data. windows users: you suck. Only
477 EV, Glib, Event and the pure perl backend can handle this condition.
478 - optimize write algorithm in AnyEvent::Handle.
479 - properly parse PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS and use the info correctly.
480 - tcp_connect now properly iterates through all targets.
481 - check wether IPv6 sockets can actually be created, otherwise, disable ipv6
482 support entirely. also hardcode some AF_INET6 constants for the
483 sake of perl 5.8.
484 - vastly improved nameserver/suffix detection algorithm for windows
485 (still a hack...)
486 - try to use a fallback dns server if no dns servers could be found.
487 - splatter around some local $SIG{__DIE__}'s to work around bad
488 die handlers.
489
4904.03 Sun May 25 05:05:57 CEST 2008
491 - work around perl bugs on windows, where perl returns undocumented
492 error codes for sysread, syswrite etc.
493 - fix AnyEvent::Handle::unshift_read to really unshift and not push.
494 - AnyEvent::Handle could sometimes stumble over 0-byte writes.
495 - fix unpack_sockaddr, now works for AF_INET6 sockaddr's.
496 - updated documentation.
497 - lots of workarounds for perl 5.8 quirks.
498 - implement a more flexible type system for both reads and writes
499 in AnyEvent::Handle.
500 - support IPv6 in tcp_server.
501 - pass local hostname and port to the prepare callback in tcp_server.
502 - make types extendable in AnyEvent::Handle.
503 - croak, not die, in AnyEvent::Handle;
504
5054.0 Sat May 24 19:58:08 CEST 2008
506 - added (experimental) AnyEvent::DNS module.
507 - added (experimental) AnyEvent::Socket module.
508 - added (experiemntal) support for TLS/SSL in AnyEvent::Handle.
509 - make condvar->end call ->send as documented.
510 - make condvar constructor support the documented cb => argument.
511 - overload condvars so you can use them instead of code references.
512 - support more of the POSIX forms instead of a pure dotted quad for
513 verbatim ip addresses.
514 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton will use AnyEvent::DNS now and not fork anymore.
515 - try very hard not to freeze on broken windows perls.
516 - make on_eof optional in AnyEvent::Handle.
517 - support service names in tcp_connect and tcp_server.
518 - work around netbsd/openbsd bug causing unix sockets not to
519 become writable until empty.
520 - only make a dummy read for error detection when getpeername
521 returns ENOTCONN.
522 - defend AnyEvent::Util::inet_aton against Coro::LWP's brutal
523 override.
524 - new AnyEvent::Guard::cancel.
525
5263.5 Sat May 17 23:17:14 CEST 2008
527 - gracefully deal with systems not defining CLOCK_MONOTONIC
528 (as opposed to not supporting the clock itself, which worked in 3.41).
529 - added AnyEvent::Util::tcp_connect and AnyEvent::Util::tcp_server
530 helpers, to replace the ill-designed AnyEvent::Socket class.
531 - added some examples (eg/connect, eg/handle).
532 - added AnyEvent::Util::guard.
533 - AnyEvent::Util now exports most of its functions.
534 - fixed a bug in *_read_chunk, where the callback was called with $self as
535 first and second argument.
536 - simplified and fixed regex handling in AnyEvent::Handle::*_read_line.
537 - fix manpage condvars examples to use new syntax.
538 - considerably improve inet_aton with EV::ADNS backend to support
539 cname chains (common dns configuration bug, e.g. with www.google.de)
540 and aaaa records if no a record could be found.
541
5423.41 Sun May 11 19:53:13 CEST 2008
543 - work around a bug in perl 5.8.8's local. Reported by Yi Ma Mao.
544
5453.4 Sun May 11 00:29:25 CEST 2008
546 - complete re-implementation of condvars with a hopefully much more useful
547 API (backward compatible functions exist but are undocumented).
548 - AnyEvent::Handle fully rewritten with a hopefully more powerful API
549 (still subject to change).
3 - take advantage of CLOCK_MONOTONIC, if available, in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl. 550 - take advantage of CLOCK_MONOTONIC, if available, in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
551 - provide AnyEvent::post_detect and @AnyEvent::post_detect, which
552 allows module authors to avoid forcing event loop detection.
553 (used by Coro::AIO, Coro::BDB, Coro::AnyEvent for example).
554 - remove coro backends: Coro now provides generic support for AnyEvent
555 via Coro::AnyEvent.

53.3 Mon Apr 28 09:51:06 CEST 2008 5573.3 Mon Apr 28 09:51:06 CEST 2008
6 - added AnyEvent::Handle, AnyEvent::Socket and AnyEvent::Util modules. 558 - added AnyEvent::Handle, AnyEvent::Socket and AnyEvent::Util modules.
7 - fix a bug in the pure perl backend that kept watchers alive 559 - fix a bug in the pure perl backend that kept watchers alive
8 when multiple watchers were registered for the same fh/poll combo. 560 when multiple watchers were registered for the same fh/poll combo.
