2 2
33.51 34.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
4 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
5 illegal.
6 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
7 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
8 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
9 by Adam Rosenstein).
10 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
11 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
12 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
13
144.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
15 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
16 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
17 the socket type.
18 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
19
204.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
21 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
22 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
23 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
24 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
25 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
26 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
27
284.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
29 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
30 unless one has been installed already.
31 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
32 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
33 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
34 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
35 client would first wait for some data by the server and
36 otherwise hang. (reported and analyzed in an absolutely
37 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
38 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
39 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
40 (reported and analyzed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
41 Rosenstein).
42 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
43 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
44 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
45 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
46 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
47 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
48 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
49 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
50 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
51 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
52 now, more to come, though.
53 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
54
554.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
56 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
57 no trace events.
58 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
59 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
60 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
61 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
62 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
63 Time::HiRes).
64
654.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
66 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
67 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
68
694.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
70 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
71 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
72 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
73 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
74
754.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
76 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
77 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
78 perls without resource leaks or worse).
79
804.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
81 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
82 the callback.
83 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
84 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
85 eol marker.
86 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
87 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
88 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
89
904.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
91 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
92 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
93 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
94 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
95 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
96
974.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
98 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
99 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
100 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
101 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
102 unusable way.
103 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
104 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
105 K. Sharifulin).
106
1074.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
108 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
109 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
110 be delayed under some circumstances.
111 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
112 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
113 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
114 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
115 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
116 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
117
1184.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
119 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
120 assumption that all data could be written before read
121 (reported by Jim Razmus).
122
1234.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
124 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
125 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
126 implementation (also affected child watchers).
127 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
128
1294.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
130 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
131 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
132 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
133
1344.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
135 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
136 works.
137
1384.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
139 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
140 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
141 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
142 for AnyEvent::Handle.
143 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
144 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
145
1464.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
147 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
148 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
149 executing the guard block as warnings.
150 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
151
1524.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
153 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
154 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
155 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
156 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
157 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
158 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
159 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
160 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
161 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
162 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
163 enter an endless loop.
164 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
165 busy again after idling.
166 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
167 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
168 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
169 (hopefully).
170 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
171 away any time.
172
1734.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
174 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
175 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
176 - allow more options in on_error.
177
1784.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008
179 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace ptr by real PTR lookup, provide
180 reverse_lookup and reverse_verify to replace it, support
181 v4mapped and v4compat addresses.
182 - provide more documentation for the resolver class.
183 - really replace longest run of :0: by :: in format_address,
184 also properly convert :: and ::1 again.
185 - support NAPTR record name and decode it.
186 - implement random weight sampling for SRV records, as per
187 rfc 2782.
188 - correctly abort on srv-record targets of ".".
189 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot.
190 - in the unlikely event of a virtual circuit connection
191 being invalidated by a delayed udp reply, AnyEvent::DNS
192 could die. this has been fixed.
193 - plug a probable memleak in the DNS vc code.
194 - use configured timeout also for VC request phase.
195 - implement timeout and max_outstanding methods
196 for resolver class.
197 - update version numbers in all modules.
198
1994.1 Thu May 29 05:45:40 CEST 2008
200 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed xxx_ip functions to xxx_address
201 which mirrors their purpose better (old names still available
202 for a while). Also moved AnyEvent::DNS::addr to
203 AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr.
204 - implement AnyEvent->time and AnyEvent->now.
205 - fix IPv6 support in pack_sockaddr.
206 - officially un-experimentalise all newly introduced code.
207 - support unix domain sockets everywhere by specifying
208 a host of "unix/" and the pathname as service.
209 - implement an activity timeout in AnyEvent::Handle.
210 - added a regex read type to AnyEvent::Handle.
211 - added a json read/write type to AnyEvent::Handle.
212 - always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle.
213 - document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
214 - implement AnyEvent::Util::fork_call.
215 - add support for IPv6 nameservers and nameserver statements.
216 - work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty
217 select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this
218 workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops,
219 but EV also works around this).
220 - supply AnyEvent::Socket::address_type and make good use of it.
221 - clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle
222 vs. callback arguments.
223 - add some recommends to the META.yml.
224
2254.05 Mon May 26 19:44:06 CEST 2008
226 - some platforms ignore the rfc and prepend an extra sa_len member to
227 the sockaddr structure, cater for those. also use sockaddr_family,
228 didn't know it was there, but comes in handy for the workaround.
229 - undo the import WIN32 hack.
230
2314.04 Mon May 26 08:03:31 CEST 2008
232 - try to work around yet another windows bug: failed connects are reported
233 as if it were out-of-band data. windows users: you suck. Only
234 EV, Glib, Event and the pure perl backend can handle this condition.
235 - optimize write algorithm in AnyEvent::Handle.
236 - properly parse PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS and use the info correctly.
237 - tcp_connect now properly iterates through all targets.
238 - check wether IPv6 sockets can actually be created, otherwise, disable ipv6
239 support entirely. also hardcode some AF_INET6 constants for the
240 sake of perl 5.8.
241 - vastly improved nameserver/suffix detection algorithm for windows
242 (still a hack...)
243 - try to use a fallback dns server if no dns servers could be found.
244 - splatter around some local $SIG{__DIE__}'s to work around bad
245 die handlers.
246
2474.03 Sun May 25 05:05:57 CEST 2008
248 - work around perl bugs on windows, where perl returns undocumented
249 error codes for sysread, syswrite etc.
250 - fix AnyEvent::Handle::unshift_read to really unshift and not push.
251 - AnyEvent::Handle could sometimes stumble over 0-byte writes.
252 - fix unpack_sockaddr, now works for AF_INET6 sockaddr's.
253 - updated documentation.
254 - lots of workarounds for perl 5.8 quirks.
255 - implement a more flexible type system for both reads and writes
256 in AnyEvent::Handle.
257 - support IPv6 in tcp_server.
258 - pass local hostname and port to the prepare callback in tcp_server.
259 - make types extendable in AnyEvent::Handle.
260 - croak, not die, in AnyEvent::Handle;
261
