3TODO: implement condvars... 3 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
4 the callback.
5
64.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
7 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
8 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
9 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
10 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
11 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
12
134.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
14 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
15 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
16 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
17 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
18 unusable way.
19 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
20 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
21 K. Sharifulin).
22
234.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
24 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
25 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
26 be delayed under some circumstances.
27 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
28 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
29 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
30 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
31 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
32 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
33
344.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
35 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
36 assumption that all data could be written before read
37 (reported by Jim Razmus).
38
394.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
40 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
41 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
42 implementation (also affected child watchers).
43 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
44
454.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
46 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
47 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
48 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
49
504.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
51 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
52 works.
53
544.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
55 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
56 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
57 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
58 for AnyEvent::Handle.
59 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
60 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
61
624.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
63 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
64 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
65 executing the guard block as warnings.
66 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
67
684.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
69 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
70 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
71 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
72 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
73 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
74 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
75 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
76 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
77 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
78 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
79 enter an endless loop.
80 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
81 busy again after idling.
82 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
83 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
84 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
85 (hopefully).
86 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
87 away any time.
88
894.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
90 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
91 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
92 - allow more options in on_error.
93
944.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008
95 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace ptr by real PTR lookup, provide
96 reverse_lookup and reverse_verify to replace it, support
97 v4mapped and v4compat addresses.
98 - provide more documentation for the resolver class.
99 - really replace longest run of :0: by :: in format_address,
100 also properly convert :: and ::1 again.
101 - support NAPTR record name and decode it.
102 - implement random weight sampling for SRV records, as per
103 rfc 2782.
104 - correctly abort on srv-record targets of ".".
105 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot.
106 - in the unlikely event of a virtual circuit connection
107 being invalidated by a delayed udp reply, AnyEvent::DNS
108 could die. this has been fixed.
109 - plug a probable memleak in the DNS vc code.
110 - use configured timeout also for VC request phase.
111 - implement timeout and max_outstanding methods
112 for resolver class.
113 - update version numbers in all modules.
114
1154.1 Thu May 29 05:45:40 CEST 2008
116 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed xxx_ip functions to xxx_address
117 which mirrors their purpose better (old names still available
118 for a while). Also moved AnyEvent::DNS::addr to
119 AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr.
120 - implement AnyEvent->time and AnyEvent->now.
121 - fix IPv6 support in pack_sockaddr.
122 - officially un-experimentalise all newly introduced code.
123 - support unix domain sockets everywhere by specifying
124 a host of "unix/" and the pathname as service.
125 - implement an activity timeout in AnyEvent::Handle.
126 - added a regex read type to AnyEvent::Handle.
127 - added a json read/write type to AnyEvent::Handle.
128 - always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle.
129 - document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
130 - implement AnyEvent::Util::fork_call.
131 - add support for IPv6 nameservers and nameserver statements.
132 - work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty
133 select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this
134 workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops,
135 but EV also works around this).
136 - supply AnyEvent::Socket::address_type and make good use of it.
137 - clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle
138 vs. callback arguments.
139 - add some recommends to the META.yml.
140
1414.05 Mon May 26 19:44:06 CEST 2008
142 - some platforms ignore the rfc and prepend an extra sa_len member to
143 the sockaddr structure, cater for those. also use sockaddr_family,
144 didn't know it was there, but comes in handy for the workaround.
145 - undo the import WIN32 hack.
146
1474.04 Mon May 26 08:03:31 CEST 2008
148 - try to work around yet another windows bug: failed connects are reported
149 as if it were out-of-band data. windows users: you suck. Only
150 EV, Glib, Event and the pure perl backend can handle this condition.
151 - optimize write algorithm in AnyEvent::Handle.
152 - properly parse PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS and use the info correctly.
153 - tcp_connect now properly iterates through all targets.
154 - check wether IPv6 sockets can actually be created, otherwise, disable ipv6
155 support entirely. also hardcode some AF_INET6 constants for the
156 sake of perl 5.8.
157 - vastly improved nameserver/suffix detection algorithm for windows
158 (still a hack...)
159 - try to use a fallback dns server if no dns servers could be found.
160 - splatter around some local $SIG{__DIE__}'s to work around bad
161 die handlers.
162
1634.03 Sun May 25 05:05:57 CEST 2008
164 - work around perl bugs on windows, where perl returns undocumented
165 error codes for sysread, syswrite etc.
166 - fix AnyEvent::Handle::unshift_read to really unshift and not push.
167 - AnyEvent::Handle could sometimes stumble over 0-byte writes.
168 - fix unpack_sockaddr, now works for AF_INET6 sockaddr's.
169 - updated documentation.
170 - lots of workarounds for perl 5.8 quirks.
171 - implement a more flexible type system for both reads and writes
172 in AnyEvent::Handle.
173 - support IPv6 in tcp_server.
174 - pass local hostname and port to the prepare callback in tcp_server.
175 - make types extendable in AnyEvent::Handle.
176 - croak, not die, in AnyEvent::Handle;
177
1784.0 Sat May 24 19:58:08 CEST 2008
179 - added (experimental) AnyEvent::DNS module.
180 - added (experimental) AnyEvent::Socket module.
181 - added (experiemntal) support for TLS/SSL in AnyEvent::Handle.
182 - make condvar->end call ->send as documented.
183 - make condvar constructor support the documented cb => argument.
184 - overload condvars so you can use them instead of code references.
185 - support more of the POSIX forms instead of a pure dotted quad for
186 verbatim ip addresses.
187 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton will use AnyEvent::DNS now and not fork anymore.
188 - try very hard not to freeze on broken windows perls.
189 - make on_eof optional in AnyEvent::Handle.
190 - support service names in tcp_connect and tcp_server.
191 - work around netbsd/openbsd bug causing unix sockets not to
192 become writable until empty.
193 - only make a dummy read for error detection when getpeername
194 returns ENOTCONN.
195 - defend AnyEvent::Util::inet_aton against Coro::LWP brutal
196 override.
197 - new AnyEvent::Guard::cancel.
198
1993.5 Sat May 17 23:17:14 CEST 2008
200 - gracefully deal with systems not defining CLOCK_MONOTONIC
201 (as opposed to not supporting the clock itself, which worked in 3.41).
202 - added AnyEvent::Util::tcp_connect and AnyEvent::Util::tcp_server
203 helpers, to replace the ill-designed AnyEvent::Socket class.
204 - added some examples (eg/connect, eg/handle).
205 - added AnyEvent::Util::guard.
206 - AnyEvent::Util now exports most of its functions.
207 - fixed a bug in *_read_chunk, where the callback was called with $self as
208 first and second argument.
209 - simplified and fixed regex handling in AnyEvent::Handle::*_read_line.
210 - fix manpage condvars examples to use new syntax.
211 - considerably improve inet_aton with EV::ADNS backend to support
212 cname chains (common dns configuration bug, e.g. with www.google.de)
213 and aaaa records if no a record could be found.
214
2153.41 Sun May 11 19:53:13 CEST 2008
216 - work around a bug in perl 5.8.8's local. Reported by Yi Ma Mao.
217
2183.4 Sun May 11 00:29:25 CEST 2008
219 - complete re-implementation of condvars with a hopefully much mroe useful
220 API (backward compatible functions exist but are undocumented).
221 - AnyEvent::Handle fully rewritten with a hopefully more powerful API
222 (still subject to change).
4 - take advantage of CLOCK_MONOTONIC, if available, in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl. 223 - take advantage of CLOCK_MONOTONIC, if available, in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
5 - provide @AnyEvent::detect. 224 - provide AnyEvent::post_detect and @AnyEvent::post_detect, which
225 allows module authors to avoid forcing event loop detection.
226 (used by Coro::AIO, Coro::BDB, Coro::AnyEvent for example).
6 - remove coro backends: Coro now provides generic support for AnyEvent 227 - remove coro backends: Coro now provides generic support for AnyEvent
7 via Coro::AnyEvent. 228 via Coro::AnyEvent.
