19 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: tls_detect documentation gave separate major and
20 minor versions, while code passed only a single value. This version
21 follows the documentation and now passes separate major and minor values.
22 - work around Net::SSLeay not having been ported to openssl 1.1, but many
23 distributions compiling it against openssl 1.1, which unfortunately
24 succeeds and results in a very brfoken module.
25 - AnyEvent::Socket::parse_ipv6 would NOT, as advertised, accept ipv4
26 addresses. It now does and converts them to ipv4 mapped addresses.
27 - support CAA records, based on patch by Steve Atkins.
28 - add freenom and cloudflare nameservers as dns fallback.
29 - AnyEvent::Strict would not properly ward against io watchers
30 on files when the handle passed was a file descriptor.
31
327.14 Sat Jun 24 01:44:19 CEST 2017
33 - fix a crash bug in AnyEvent::Handle with openssl 1.1.0 (patched
34 by Paul Howarth and apparently tracked down by Mike McCauley).
35 - AnyEvent::Handle->keepalive was documented (and defined) twice
36 (found by Matt Merhar).
37 - AnyEvent::Socket::tcp_bind/tcp_server would immediately unlink a unix
38 listening socket unless a guard is used. Change this so that no
39 cleanup will be performed unless a guard is used and document this more
40 clearly.
41 - make tcp_bind/tcp_server error messages more regular.
42 - work around latest perl upstream breakage - this time, perl5porters were
43 apparently bullied by a bogus CVE (CVE-2016-1238), and since distros
44 stupidly apply anything that has "security fix" stamped on it, it's likely
45 going to be a problem in practise (and working around it is trivial on
46 windows and unix).
47 - add TCP_FASTOPEN/MSG_FASTOPEN and MSG_NOSIGNAL/MSG_MORE/MSG_DONTWAIT
48 to constants.
49 - update warnings to common::sense 3.74 standards.
50
517.13 Sat Sep 17 04:31:49 CEST 2016
52 - Only call tlsext_host_name for non-empty common names (reported
53 by Maxime Soulé).
54 - log a (single) notice message if SNI is not supported.
55 - upgrade to UTS-46:9.0.0 draft and switch to non-transitional
56 behaviour, beating thunderbird, ie, edge, chrome and safari to it :)
57 (see also https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1218179)
58 - turns out the UTS-46 IDNA testcase failures were indeed bugs in the
59 testcases and the specification and not in the code - the post-9.0.0
60 unicode files have all known problems fixed, so finally the AnyEvent
61 IDNA implementation can pass the full IDNA testsuite - without needing
62 a single fix :)
63 - guarantee (and document) that condvar callbacks will be removed
64 on invocation - important to avoid circular references.
65
667.12 Wed Jan 27 19:12:26 CET 2016
67 - use common name as hostname for tls connects, if Net::SSLeay
68 supports SNI.
69 - fix documentation of tls_autostart read type in AnyEvent::Handle,
70 analyzed by Felix Ostmann.
71
727.11 Thu Jul 16 14:36:00 CEST 2015
73 - AnyEvent::Socket::parse_ipv6 could accept malformed ipv6
74 addresses (extra "::" at end and similar cases).
75 - add a more explicit warning to AnyEvent::Handle that it doesn't
76 work on files, people keep getting confused.
77 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::tcp_bind.
78 - new functions AnyEvent::fh_block and AnyEvent::fh_unblock.
79 - aligned ipv6 address formatting with RFC 5952 (by not shortening
80 a single :0: to ::).
81 - added stability canary support.
82
837.09 Sat May 2 16:38:53 CEST 2015
84 - AnyEvent::Debug called an internal function (AnyEvent::Log::ft)
85 that was renamed to AnyEvent::Log:format_time. uinder its old name
86 (analyzed by Michael Stovenour).
87 - update AnyEvent::DNS fallback resolver addresses:
88 seems google effectively killed most other free dns resolvers,
89 so remove them, but add cable and wireless (ecrc) since it was
90 stable for 20 years or so, official or not, and there should be
91 an alternative to google.
92 - perl5porters broke windows error codes in 5.20, and mapped
93 WSAEWOULDBLOCK on the (different) EWOULDBLOCK error code, and
94 WSAEINPROGRESS into the incompatible ERINPROGRESS code, probably
95 because they were so cool. They probably broke other error codes
96 for no reason, too, but I didn't care for checking, it's too
97 depressing. This version only works around the WSAEWOULDBLOCK
98 issue, because I don't have a nice way to work around the
99 WSAEINPROGRESS bug.
100
1017.08 Wed Dec 10 05:27:17 CET 2014
102 - work around a newly introduced bug in Socket 2.011 (an
103 errornous sun_length check) (analyzed by Maxime Soulé).
104 - AnyEvent::TLS didn't load (but refer to) AnyEvent::Socket
105 (analyzed by Ben Magistro).
106 - AnyEvent::Strict will now confess, not croak. This is in line with
107 it being a development/debugging tool.
108 - work around a number of libglib bugs (debug builds of libglib enforce
109 certain undocumented behaviour patterns such as not being able to
110 remove a child watch source after it has fired, which we will try
111 to emulate to avoid "criticals". what where they thinking...).
112 - mention json security issues in AnyEvent::Handle, now that Douglas
113 Crockford has foolishly and incompatibly changed JSON.
114 - changed default dns resolver "max_outstanding" value from 1 to 10,
115 the latter beinfg the intended value all along
116 (reported by Ilya Chesnokov).
117 - added new "AnyEvent::Impl::UV" interface module to the UV event lib
118 (written by Mike Lowell).
119
1207.07 Tue Dec 17 17:45:02 CET 2013
121 - the documentation for custom tls verify schemes was wrong. make it agree
122 with the code (reported by Maxime Soulé).
123 - added cbor read and write types to AnyEvent::Handle (using CBOR::XS).
124 - work around an API change in openssl that could cause wrong tls connection
125 aborts, likely on windows only (analyzed by sten).
126 - calling AnyEvent->now_update with AnyEvent::Impl::Perl caused an
127 endless loop (reported by Dietrich Rebmann).
128 - add tlsv1_1 and tlsv1_2 protocols to AnyEvent::TLS
129 (patch by Maxime Soulé).
130 - document AnyEvent::Impl::IOAsync::set_loop and
131 $AnyEvent::Impl::IOAsync::LOOP. Though only documented now, this
132 functionality has _always_ been available.
133 - force a toplevel domain name in t/81_hosts.t (analyzed by
134 David Jack Wange Olrik).
135 - document that AnyEvent::Log uses AnyEvent::IO.
136 - warn about AnyEvent::Filesys::Notify performance.
137 - praise the joys of AnyEvent::Fork::*.
138 - time for an =encoding directive.
139 - do no longer use JSON to create a default json coder, use
140 JSON::XS or JSON::PP directly.
141
1427.05 Wed Aug 21 10:38:08 CEST 2013
143 - uts46data.pl couldn't be found due to wrong naming of the file
144 (reported by Fulko Hew).
145 - handle lone \015's properly in AE::Handle's default line read
146 (reported by various people).
147 - untaint ip addresses found in /etc/hosts (patch by José Micó).
148 - the memleak fix in 7.03 caused resolving via /etc/hosts to always
149 fail on first use (reported and testcase by Andrew Whatson).
150 - expose AnyEvent::Log::format_time, and allow users to redefine it.
151 - expose AnyEvent::Log::default_format, and allow redefinition.
152 - expose AnyEvent::Log::fatal_exit, to allow redefinition.
153 - AnyEvent::Debug shell can now run coro shell commands, if available.
154 - t/63* tests were wrongly in MANIFEST.
155 - kernel.org's finger server went MIA, switch to freebsd.org and
156 icculus.org.
157 - clarify that IO::AIO and AnyEvent::AIO are needed for AnyEvent::IO
158 to function asynchronously (reported by Daniel Carosone).
159 - hard-disable $^W in most tests, it generates too much garbage output.
160 - use a (hopefully) more future-proof method to emulate common::sense.
161 - upgrade to UTS-46:6.2.0.
162 - switch to INSTLIB from INSTLIBDIR, as INSTLIBDIR was wrongly
163 documented. should not affect anything.
164
1657.04 Thu Nov 15 02:23:58 CET 2012
166 - debugging code left in.
167
1687.03 Thu Nov 15 02:16:11 CET 2012
169 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton did not work when dns resolution was
170 used to find the addresses (analyzed and patch by Maxime Soulé).
171 - fix a memory leak in the /etc/hosts lookup code when hosts don't
172 resolve and are not in hosts (analyzed by sten).
173
1747.02 Tue Aug 14 04:27:58 CEST 2012
175 - AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd could block indefinitely (analyzed and test
176 program by Yorhel).
177 - verified that AnyEvent::Socket follows RFC5952.
178 - try to parse "ADDR#PORT" in addition to "ADDR PORT".
179
1807.01 Sun May 13 01:03:17 CEST 2012
181 - fail with EPROTO in AnyEvent::Handle wqhen TLS is requested but
182 not available, instead of throwing an exception.
183 - use File::Spec to get the tmpdir in t/*, to avoid needless
184 failures on (most, not mine :) windows boxes.
185 - new handle read types: tls_detect and tls_autostart.
186
1877.0 Fri Apr 13 06:33:30 CEST 2012
188 - child watchers are broken in POE 1.352 (also many earlier
189 versions) and there seems to be no way to work around it, as POE
190 itself is inherently racy. Document this regression and add a delay
191 in t/68_poe_03_child.t for the time being.
192 - new module AnyEvent::IO, that is a frontend to either a pure-perl
193 synchronous I/O implementation (AnyEvent::IO::Perl), or to the
194 asynchronous I/O extension IO::AIO (AnyEvent::IO::IOAIO).
195 - load /etc/hosts only when DNS has no answer.
196 - stat /etc/hosts on every access and reload it if it changed.
197 - load /etc/hosts via AnyEvent::IO - potentially asynchronous.
198 - fix a buggy croak in the dh parameter reading in AnyEvent::TLS.
199 - AnyEvent::Log log_to_file and log_to_path now use AnyEvent::IO. As
200 a side effect, they now use true appending as opposed to libc
201 appending, and the file might not have been opened when the function
202 returns.
203 - the default logging level was not properly documented in a variety of
204 places, this has hopefully been rectified.
205 - updated uts46data.pl for unicode 6.1.0.
206 - made log messages generated by AnyEvent submodules not
207 include the package name anymore, as it will be logged
208 by default already.
209 - upgrade to the trick used by common-sense 3.5 to work
210 around extra warning torture/breakage under perl 5.15.x.
211 - log messages by anyevent are now ucfirst, are usually full
212 sentences and do no longer include the package name.
213 - the storable read type would sometimes throw an exception instead
214 of causing EBADMSG (analyzed by Maxime Soulé).
215 - work around a bug in openssl 1.0.1 which enforces a minimum rsa
216 keysize (reported by Paul Howarth).
217 - documented Rocco fabricating statements about AnyEvent and me.
218
2196.14 Tue Jan 31 20:00:24 CET 2012
220 - AnyEvent::Impl::Tk was broken due to a mysterious "die" inside,
221 probably an editing mistake (reported by Darin McBride).
222
2236.13 Thu Jan 12 07:27:01 CET 2012
224 - AnyEvent::Util::fork_call checked for POSIX availability in the wrong way,
225 causing it to fail if POSIX wasn't loaded already (analysed by Rock Power).
226 - AnyEvent::Handle::push_read (line => did pass $1 directly, so
227 regex-matching inside the callback would change the parameter, despite
228 $1 being dynamically scoped per-block. this perl bug is now being
229 worked around (testcase by Cindy Wang).
230
2316.12 Mon Dec 12 13:21:10 CET 2011
232 - $! was clobbered by subsequent calls in tcp_connect, due to
233 the postpone not saving/restoring it (analyzed by Richard Garnish).
234
2356.11 Tue Nov 22 10:36:05 CET 2011
236 - Tk cannot create windows when tainted unless you set a title, so
237 set a dummy title for AnyEvent's dummy mainwindow. How dummy.
238 - escape any nonprintable/nonascii characters when stringifying
239 backtraces.
240 - log the reason loading an interface module fails to load at level debug.
241
2426.1 Tue Oct 4 19:44:30 CEST 2011
243 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the default log level is now "4" (error
244 and above), and some messages inside AnyEvent have been elevated
245 to higher log levels to print by default.
246 - AnyEvent::log, unlike AnyEvent::Log::log, did not always exit on fatal.
247 - work around yet another signal race bug, newly introduced by POE. My
248 how that module sucks.
249 - add google public ipv6 dns as fallback servers, so AE::DNS can finally
250 support ipv6-only operation even with defaults (also use ::1 instead
251 of 127.0.0.1).
252 - give better guidelines on how to chose a logging level.
253 - AnyEvent::Log can now cap (limit) log message priority by context.
254 - AE::log will now save and restore $! and $@, so callers don't have to.
255 - AE::Strict now checks that registered fds are still valid at regular
256 intervals.
257 - skip frequently called 'require' calls if the module appears loaded.
258 - increase signal latency test timer considerably for poor little osx,
259 which can't be bothered with basic posix functionality such as signal
260 delivery.
261 - mention some debugging aids in the tutorial.
262 - new env variable PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY.
263 - private (%namespace) log contexts in PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG now have the name
264 of the context as title.
265 - AnyEvent::Strict would not restore read-write access to $_ when a callback
266 died - this is a user bug, but since AE::Strict exists to help dbeugging...
267 - detect the extremely evil IO::Async::Loop::AnyEvent module and refuse
268 to work with it - the author is well aware of the issues but refuses
269 to fix them. This extreme step has been taken because the module actively
270 attacks the goals of AnyEvent and makes it harder for module authors to use
271 AnyEvent.
272
2736.02 Fri Aug 26 20:08:31 CEST 2011
274 - log_to_syslog now accepts facility strings.
275 - log_to_syslog would not allow facilities - "$facility|$level"
276 *literally* means that string. sheesh.
277 - the CPAN parser got confused and thought we provide Sys::Syslog, try
278 to work around.
279 - renamed AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2 to FLTK.
280
2816.01 Fri Aug 26 07:04:11 CEST 2011
282 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::DNS resource records now include
283 the TTL as fourth element - this affects ->resolve, ->request
284 and ->dns_unpack indirectly. Convenience functions such as
285 AnyEvent::DNS::{a,txt,mx,srv} are not affected, neither is
286 AnyEvent::Socket.
287 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: backend authors now should not implement
288 one_event or loop, but instead the AnyEvent::CondVar::_wait and _poll
289 methods.
290 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: verbosity levels have been redefined, see
291 AnyEvent (PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE) and AnyEvent::Log for details.
292 - DEPRECIATION: please change
293 "use AnyEvent::Impl::Perl" to "use AnyEvent::Loop" and
294 "AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop" to "AnyEvent::Loop::run"
295 in your programs, for future compatibility.
296 - *blush* idle watcher emulation was borked.
297 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks the AE::xxx functions as well.
298 - querying too long domain names would barf deep inside AnyEvent::DNS - since
299 this is hard to avoid for applications, AnyEvent:.DNS::request now checks for
300 for too long domain names explicitly and passes an undef to the callback
301 instead (reported by James Bromberger).
302 - make AnyEvent::Util more robust against EINTR (analyzed by Andrew Suffield).
303 - new functions: AnyEvent::postpone, AnyEvent::log.
304 - new module: AnyEvent::Log, for simple logging needs.
305 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG, for fine-grained logging config.
306 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_SHELL, to automatically start
307 a debug shell.
308 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_WRAP, to automatically enable
309 watcher instrumentation/wrapping (see AnyEvent::Debug::wrap).
310 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_HOSTS, to override the place where
311 /etc/hosts can be found.
312 - an empty PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF now selects the default
313 configuration.
314 - env variables can now be specified using AE_xyz instead of
315 PERL_ANYEVENT_xyz, subject to some rules.
316 - lots of new AnyEvent::Debug functionality.
317 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks for modifications of $_ by the callback
318 (by setting it to readonly while executing the callback, if possible).
319 - IO::Async sometimes cancels the wrong timer when you call cancel_timer.
320 Invest extra overhead to work around this peculiar behaviour.
321 - split the pure perl backend into a loop module and an impl
322 module (AnyEvent::Loop and AnyEvent::Impl::Perl).
323 - some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could
324 errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own
325 (reported by Mohammad Toossi).
326 - AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr and all functions using it now
327 supports /etc/hosts overrides.
328 - add more workarounds around child watcher bugs in IO::Async
329 and (newly introduced) in POE.
330 - use glib child watchers and try to work around its limitations,
331 if possible (based on a patch by Kevin Ryde).
332 - add support for FLTK (fltk2), via AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2.
333 - many read types in AnyEvent::Handle would malfunction during
334 transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}".
335 (reported by Gerald Galster).
336 - improve condvar blocking wait performance (probably only noticable
337 with faster backends), also make it easier for event loops that
338 do not support blocking waits.
339 - PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL now also allows full module names, although
340 the usefulness of this feature is not yet clear.
341 - add tests for all supported event loops, conditional on PERL_ANYEVENT_LOOP_TESTS.
342 - add t/80_ssltext.t.
343 - no longer use AUTOLOAD for the initial loading (for no very good reason).
344 - tcp_server now tries to unlink unix domain sockets when it gets destroyed.
345 - do not run event loop detection multiple times when programs call their cached
346 copies of AnyEvent::detect.
347 - parse_hostport now accepts absolute paths als unix domain sockets.
348 - suppress the idiotic warning inside POE by patching the POE::Kernel
349 run flags instead of asking the user to jump through contortions.
350 - add Task::Weaken as dependency (as recommends only at this time).
351 - replace PF_UNSPEC by 0, for good old minix.
352
3536.0 (not officially released, but was on CPAN for about 15 minutes :/)
354
3555.34 Thu May 12 09:59:41 CEST 2011
356 - AE::TLS didn't support both cert_file and key at the same time,
357 due to some copy&paste bug (reported and analyzed by vti).
358 - improve AE::Handle timeout documentation slightly.
359
3605.33 Mon Feb 7 21:51:41 CET 2011
361 - never appeared on CPAN, for unknown reasons.
362 - AnyEvent::Handle on_connect_error - do not try to destroy a handle
363 object when it's already gone (analyzed by Ryan Bullock).
364 - update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0.
365 - preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve,
366 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
367 - remove leading dots in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to remove,
368 uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense.
369 - fixed a bug in idn ignored character processing.
370 - passes the uts46 6.0.0 testsuite except for three cases which
371 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
372 - passes the uts46 6.0.1 testsuite except for eleven cases which
373 apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself.
374
3755.31 Sun Jan 23 11:49:19 CET 2011
376 - work around a POE bug where POE would first poll for new events and
377 invoke handlers BEFORE handling the message queue.
378 - fix parsing of "domain" statement in resolv.conf (Johannes Plunien).
379 - stop_read now does just that in TLS mode. see its
380 documentation for caveats.
381 - update to common::sense 3.4 warning set (some warnings in perl impose
382 an arbitrary 32kb limit on regex matches, which affects
383 AnyEvent::Handle).
384 - AE::Handle had a broken rbuf_max method and missing wbuf_max method.
385 - new experimental AE::Handle::resettls method.
386
3875.3 Fri Dec 31 05:48:13 CET 2010
388 - major IOAsync patch by Paul Evans - 0.33 is required, as the major
389 issues with IO::Async have been solved in that version, including
390 the availabilty of a default loop!
391 - implement new wbuf_max parameter for AnyEvent::Handle.
392 - added Cocoa::EventLoop backend by Daisuke Murase.
393 - the default testsuite now honors PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL (Paul Evans).
394 - clarify handle on_prepare documentation.
395 - set CLOEXEC flag on parent-side fd's in AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd,
396 to avoid leaking them to any child processes.
397 - try to force files into the arch-dependend lib directory, for the
398 half-"turly obsessive compulsive person"(s) that depend on it.
399
4005.29 Sun Dec 5 10:49:21 CET 2010
401 - convert EV backend to EV 4.00 API (so better upgrade EV too).
402 - AE::Handle: implement dynamic read_size adjustment, add
403 max_read_size parameter, reduce default read_size to 2048.
404 - add some FAQ entries for servers and/or on_eof vs. on_error.
405 - work around OS bugs (cygwin again) when lingering in AE::Handle.
406 - reduce memory usage slightly when connect was used in AE::Handle.
407 - wrok around more segfaults in Tk.
408 - document tls_ctx => undef as valid.
409 - detect WNOHANG value at compiletime.
410 - include some probably linux-only support for building AnyEvent
411 as part of the perl core.
412 - improve compatibility of t/08_idna.t to perl 5.8.
413 - make AnyEvent::Strict truly optional (in case somebody builds a
414 minimal perl...).
415
4165.28 Wed Oct 13 04:14:23 CEST 2010
417 - due to a glitch, AnyEvent's internal getprotobyname wasn't
418 actually used in tcp_server.
419 - implement AnyEvent::CondVar->new method, which was documented but
420 missing.
421 - support autoloading of read types in unshift_read.
422 - AnyEvent::Strict: do the test for invalid fh arguments differently,
423 resulting in more informative error messages.
424 - new AnyEvent::FAQ manpage.
425 - clarify that you can actually call push_read etc. in on_read.
426 - put keys and certs in /tmp, not into the current directory,
427 and document this in the SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS sections
428 of AnyEvent::TLS.
429 - support ";" as resolv.conf comment character in AnyEvent::DNS, as
430 requested by Ron Isaacson.
431 - document $AnyEvent::DNS::RESOLVER variable.
432 - incorporated major typo patches by Abhijit Menon-Sen.
433 - AnyEvent::Handle now croaks when negative timeouts are passed.
434 - add a shitload of TCP_xxx sockopt name constants to AnyEvent::Util,
435 undocumented, but who knows when they might come in handy.
436
4375.271 Tue Jun 8 12:05:46 CEST 2010
438 - backport to perl 5.8.x.
439
4405.27 Sun Jun 6 12:12:05 CEST 2010
441 - postpone differently in AnyEvent::Socket now, as
442 when not, canceling the connection attempt might fail
443 (found by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
444 - explicitly check for non-stream sockets in AE::Handle, too many
445 clueless people fell into the trap of this somehow working.
446 - simplified and reworked the "OTHER MODULES" section.
447 - better/more condvar examples.
448
4495.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010
450 - AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration
451 time (found by Andy Grundman).
452
4535.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010
454 - don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select
455 returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase
456 by Bas Denissen).
457 - give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE.
458 - provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for
459 EV and Perl backends.
460 - provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all
461 backends.
462 - no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was
463 never documented nor universally supported).
464 - some more memory µ-optimisations, and somewhat less messy
465 code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs.
466
4675.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010
468 - make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <=
469 5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult,
470 so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time.
471
4725.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
473 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
474 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
475 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
476 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
477 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
478 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
479 by lucky accident on win32.
480 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
481 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
482 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
483 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
484 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
485 detection and eval.
486 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
487 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
488 (same algorithm as EV).
489 - update unicode idna mapping table.
490
4915.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
492 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
493 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
494 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
495 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
496
4975.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
3 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect. 498 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
499 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
500 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
4 - provide $AE::VERSION. 501 - provide $AE::VERSION.
5 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'". 502 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
6 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
