1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. 1Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.

3 - implement PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL env variable.
4 - implement interface to the (very crashy/buggy) Event::Lib module.
5 - tried to implement an interface to Qt, but perl-Qt is in a
6 totally broken state (Qt::app returns an invalid object, memory
7 corruption ensues etc.)

93.12 Tue Apr 22 07:11:46 CEST 2008
10 - reinstate AUTHOR section that got lost somehow.
11 - do not hang in the testsuite with badly broken perls (activestate,
12 strawberry...), but instead diagnose the problem and continue.
13 - use INT instead of CHLD in an attempt to support broken windows perls
14 better (this decreases the test quality, unfortunately).
15 - do not send the signal to the process group
16 (no problem for CHLD, bad for INT :).
17
183.11 Sat Apr 19 06:57:31 CEST 2008
19 - major documentation rework.
20 - document the fact that child watchers only watch for zombies.
21 - fix the child watcher example.
22
233.1 Wed Apr 16 17:09:01 CEST 2008
24 - work around recurring bugs in Tk by dup'ing filehandles, the
25 only method with good success chances on Tk (the bugs apparently
26 don't get fixed anytime soon).
27 - lift the restriction of only one watcher per fh direction
28 (as the Tk bug workaround also lifts it and only Tk imposed
29 such strong limits).
30 - changed probe order to prefer coro adaptors.
31 - explain why recursion into the event loop is not supported
32 unless the backend supports it (only Coro::EV does without
33 any restrictions...).
34 - add simple manpages for all backend modules.
35
363.0 Mon Apr 7 21:30:23 CEST 2008
37 - Coro::Signal changed semantics, roll our own, also cleaning
38 up the Coro implementation in general.
39 - rename Coro backend to CoroEvent.
40 - add some decision helping paragraph to the manpage that should
41 help people to decide whether AnyEvent is the right thing for them.
42
432.9 Mon Jan 28 13:31:54 CET 2008
44 - update for EV 3.0 API changes.
45
462.8 Sun Nov 25 15:06:03 CET 2007
47 - waitpid can validly return 0. accept this fact of life
48 instead of reporting it to any watchers.
49
502.7 Fri Nov 23 11:41:14 CET 2007
51 - force use of AnyEvent::Impl::Perl in testsuite, there is
52 too much breakage outside AnyEvent.
53 - deliver signals synchronously in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl
54 or any other event loop that relies on AnyEvents child
55 watcher emulation. *Could* help with hanging testsuite
56 (except when Event or EV are installed).
57
582.6 Fri Nov 9 20:36:35 CET 2007
59 - fix bug in testsuite.
60 - move EV adaptor modules to AnyEvent.
61 - add Coro+EV adaptor module.
62
632.55 Tue Nov 6 17:41:32 CET 2007
64 - add EV to the list of supported event models.
65 - do not auto-reset pid watchers, pass pid and status to them.
66 - allow a pid of zero to watch for all children in child watchers.
67
682.54 Wed Jul 18 17:36:23 CEST 2007
69 - work around a perl bug that results in
70 BEGIN not safe after errors--compilation aborted without
71 any discernible reason or error message by once
72 again not use'ing strict.
73
742.53 Sun Jul 8 10:51:53 CEST 2007
75 - make Glib interface work again (spotted by elmex).
76
772.52 Wed Mar 7 18:36:16 CET 2007
78 - child watchers stopped working permanently when
79 all current child watchers were destroyed.
80
812.51 Mon Dec 11 21:33:24 CET 2006
82 - work around bugs in perl where eval "require Module" returns
83 true even if the module couldn't be loaded :/.
84
852.5 Mon Dec 11 02:15:28 CET 2006
86 - avoid $AUTOLOAD because many perls corrupt it.
87 - AnyEvent::detect forces autodetection.
88 - implement signal watchers (experimental)
89 (Tk does not support async signals (<= 804.027 at least),
90 so they might get delayed indefinitely on Tk).
91 - implement child watchers (experimental).
92 - moved default condvar implementation into base module, simplifying
93 most implementation modules.
94
952.1 Fri Nov 24 15:50:48 CET 2006
96 - better docs.
97 - simple testsuite.
98 - added AnyEvent->one_event method for special purposes.
99
1002.0 Wed Nov 1 02:21:30 CET 2006
101 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: poll can now either be "r" or "w" but not both.
102 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: io watcher callbacks have no arguments anymore.
103 - EXPERIMENTAL:
104 new pure-perl model added, AnyEvent now always finds a suitable
105 event model.
106 - improved documentation.
107 - reduced cpu overhead.
108
1091.02 Fri Jan 13 14:15:40 CET 2006
110 - add COPYING to clarify license.
111
1121.01 Sun Jan 8 05:48:09 CET 2006
113 - correctly cancel Event timers, avoid memory leaks.
114
1151.0 Sun Jan 8 05:40:58 CET 2006
116 - allow third-party interfaces to be added at runtime.
117 - fix version number.

4 - fixed errors in the documentation. 120 - fixed errors in the documentation.
5 - going back to using $VERSION as "load check", 121 - going back to using $VERSION as "load check",
6 as suggested by Jörn Reder. Let's see why I stopped using 122 as suggested by Jörn Reder. Let's see why I stopped using
16 - fixed documentation. 132 - fixed documentation.

21 - check wether a valid method was called, to avoid endless loops. 137 - check whether a valid method was called, to avoid endless loops.
22 - move condvars into their own class (cleaner, safer). 138 - move condvars into their own class (cleaner, safer).
23 - don't die when some modules are not available. 139 - don't die when some modules are not available.
24 - Tk is too broken to allow for words. Will work once Tk works. 140 - Tk is too broken to allow for words. Will work once Tk works.
