2 2
3TODO: implement condvars... 3 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
4 - hint about unexpected effects in tls mode.
5 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
6 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
7 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.

94.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
10 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
11 unless one has been installed already.
12 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
13 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
14 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
15 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
16 client would first wait for some data by the server and
17 otherwise hang. (reported and analyzed in an absolutely
18 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
19 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
20 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
21 (reported and analyzed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
22 Rosenstein).
23 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
24 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
25 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
26 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
27 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
28 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
29 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
30 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
31 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
32 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
33 now, more to come, though.
34 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
35
364.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
37 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
38 no trace events.
39 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
40 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
41 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
42 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
43 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
44 Time::HiRes).
45
464.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
47 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
48 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
49
504.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
51 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
52 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
53 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
54 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
55
564.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
57 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
58 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
59 perls without resource leaks or worse).
60
614.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
62 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
63 the callback.
64 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
65 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
66 eol marker.
67 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
68 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
69 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
70
714.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
72 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
73 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
74 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
75 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
76 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
77
784.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
79 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
80 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
81 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
82 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
83 unusable way.
84 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
85 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
86 K. Sharifulin).
87
884.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
89 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
90 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
91 be delayed under some circumstances.
92 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
93 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
94 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
95 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
96 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
97 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
98
994.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
100 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
101 assumption that all data could be written before read
102 (reported by Jim Razmus).
103
1044.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
105 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
106 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
107 implementation (also affected child watchers).
108 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
109
1104.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
111 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
112 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
113 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
114
1154.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
116 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
117 works.
118
1194.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
120 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
121 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
122 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
123 for AnyEvent::Handle.
124 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
125 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
126
1274.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
128 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
129 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
130 executing the guard block as warnings.
131 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
132
1334.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
134 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
135 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
136 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
137 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
138 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
139 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
140 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
141 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
142 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
143 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
144 enter an endless loop.
145 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
146 busy again after idling.
147 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
148 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
149 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
150 (hopefully).
151 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
152 away any time.
153
1544.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
155 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
156 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
157 - allow more options in on_error.
158
1594.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008
160 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace ptr by real PTR lookup, provide
161 reverse_lookup and reverse_verify to replace it, support
162 v4mapped and v4compat addresses.
163 - provide more documentation for the resolver class.
164 - really replace longest run of :0: by :: in format_address,
165 also properly convert :: and ::1 again.
166 - support NAPTR record name and decode it.
167 - implement random weight sampling for SRV records, as per
168 rfc 2782.
169 - correctly abort on srv-record targets of ".".
170 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot.
171 - in the unlikely event of a virtual circuit connection
172 being invalidated by a delayed udp reply, AnyEvent::DNS
173 could die. this has been fixed.
174 - plug a probable memleak in the DNS vc code.
175 - use configured timeout also for VC request phase.
176 - implement timeout and max_outstanding methods
177 for resolver class.
178 - update version numbers in all modules.
179
1804.1 Thu May 29 05:45:40 CEST 2008
181 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed xxx_ip functions to xxx_address
182 which mirrors their purpose better (old names still available
183 for a while). Also moved AnyEvent::DNS::addr to
184 AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr.
185 - implement AnyEvent->time and AnyEvent->now.
186 - fix IPv6 support in pack_sockaddr.
187 - officially un-experimentalise all newly introduced code.
188 - support unix domain sockets everywhere by specifying
189 a host of "unix/" and the pathname as service.
190 - implement an activity timeout in AnyEvent::Handle.
191 - added a regex read type to AnyEvent::Handle.
192 - added a json read/write type to AnyEvent::Handle.
193 - always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle.
194 - document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
195 - implement AnyEvent::Util::fork_call.
196 - add support for IPv6 nameservers and nameserver statements.
197 - work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty
198 select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this
199 workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops,
200 but EV also works around this).
201 - supply AnyEvent::Socket::address_type and make good use of it.
202 - clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle
203 vs. callback arguments.
204 - add some recommends to the META.yml.
205
2064.05 Mon May 26 19:44:06 CEST 2008
207 - some platforms ignore the rfc and prepend an extra sa_len member to
208 the sockaddr structure, cater for those. also use sockaddr_family,
209 didn't know it was there, but comes in handy for the workaround.
210 - undo the import WIN32 hack.
211
2124.04 Mon May 26 08:03:31 CEST 2008
213 - try to work around yet another windows bug: failed connects are reported
214 as if it were out-of-band data. windows users: you suck. Only
215 EV, Glib, Event and the pure perl backend can handle this condition.
216 - optimize write algorithm in AnyEvent::Handle.
217 - properly parse PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS and use the info correctly.
218 - tcp_connect now properly iterates through all targets.
219 - check wether IPv6 sockets can actually be created, otherwise, disable ipv6
220 support entirely. also hardcode some AF_INET6 constants for the
221 sake of perl 5.8.
222 - vastly improved nameserver/suffix detection algorithm for windows
223 (still a hack...)
224 - try to use a fallback dns server if no dns servers could be found.
225 - splatter around some local $SIG{__DIE__}'s to work around bad
226 die handlers.
227
2284.03 Sun May 25 05:05:57 CEST 2008
229 - work around perl bugs on windows, where perl returns undocumented
230 error codes for sysread, syswrite etc.
231 - fix AnyEvent::Handle::unshift_read to really unshift and not push.
232 - AnyEvent::Handle could sometimes stumble over 0-byte writes.
233 - fix unpack_sockaddr, now works for AF_INET6 sockaddr's.
234 - updated documentation.
235 - lots of workarounds for perl 5.8 quirks.
236 - implement a more flexible type system for both reads and writes
237 in AnyEvent::Handle.
238 - support IPv6 in tcp_server.
239 - pass local hostname and port to the prepare callback in tcp_server.
240 - make types extendable in AnyEvent::Handle.
241 - croak, not die, in AnyEvent::Handle;
242
2434.0 Sat May 24 19:58:08 CEST 2008
244 - added (experimental) AnyEvent::DNS module.
245 - added (experimental) AnyEvent::Socket module.
246 - added (experiemntal) support for TLS/SSL in AnyEvent::Handle.
247 - make condvar->end call ->send as documented.
248 - make condvar constructor support the documented cb => argument.
249 - overload condvars so you can use them instead of code references.
250 - support more of the POSIX forms instead of a pure dotted quad for
251 verbatim ip addresses.
252 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton will use AnyEvent::DNS now and not fork anymore.
253 - try very hard not to freeze on broken windows perls.
254 - make on_eof optional in AnyEvent::Handle.
255 - support service names in tcp_connect and tcp_server.
256 - work around netbsd/openbsd bug causing unix sockets not to
257 become writable until empty.
258 - only make a dummy read for error detection when getpeername
259 returns ENOTCONN.
260 - defend AnyEvent::Util::inet_aton against Coro::LWP's brutal
261 override.
262 - new AnyEvent::Guard::cancel.
263
2643.5 Sat May 17 23:17:14 CEST 2008
265 - gracefully deal with systems not defining CLOCK_MONOTONIC
266 (as opposed to not supporting the clock itself, which worked in 3.41).
267 - added AnyEvent::Util::tcp_connect and AnyEvent::Util::tcp_server
268 helpers, to replace the ill-designed AnyEvent::Socket class.
269 - added some examples (eg/connect, eg/handle).
270 - added AnyEvent::Util::guard.
271 - AnyEvent::Util now exports most of its functions.
272 - fixed a bug in *_read_chunk, where the callback was called with $self as
273 first and second argument.
274 - simplified and fixed regex handling in AnyEvent::Handle::*_read_line.
275 - fix manpage condvars examples to use new syntax.
276 - considerably improve inet_aton with EV::ADNS backend to support
277 cname chains (common dns configuration bug, e.g. with www.google.de)
278 and aaaa records if no a record could be found.
279
2803.41 Sun May 11 19:53:13 CEST 2008
281 - work around a bug in perl 5.8.8's local. Reported by Yi Ma Mao.
282
2833.4 Sun May 11 00:29:25 CEST 2008
284 - complete re-implementation of condvars with a hopefully much more useful
285 API (backward compatible functions exist but are undocumented).
286 - AnyEvent::Handle fully rewritten with a hopefully more powerful API
287 (still subject to change).
4 - take advantage of CLOCK_MONOTONIC, if available, in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl. 288 - take advantage of CLOCK_MONOTONIC, if available, in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
5 - provide @AnyEvent::detect. 289 - provide AnyEvent::post_detect and @AnyEvent::post_detect, which
290 allows module authors to avoid forcing event loop detection.
291 (used by Coro::AIO, Coro::BDB, Coro::AnyEvent for example).
6 - remove coro backends: Coro now provides generic support for AnyEvent 292 - remove coro backends: Coro now provides generic support for AnyEvent
7 via Coro::AnyEvent. 293 via Coro::AnyEvent.
8 294
93.3 Mon Apr 28 09:51:06 CEST 2008 2953.3 Mon Apr 28 09:51:06 CEST 2008
10 - added AnyEvent::Handle, AnyEvent::Socket and AnyEvent::Util modules. 296 - added AnyEvent::Handle, AnyEvent::Socket and AnyEvent::Util modules.
