2 2
34.0 35.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010
4 - fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause
5 a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_
6 ssl connection) after user code threw an exception.
7 - added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method.
8 - speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6.
9 - the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only
10 by lucky accident on win32.
11 - smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking.
12 - when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent
13 did not fall back to built-in time properly.
14 - do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time.
15 - precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime
16 detection and eval.
17 - free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations.
18 - Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved
19 (ame algorithm as EV).
20 - update unicode idna mapping table.
21
225.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010
23 - cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives
24 you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and
25 just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack.
26 - improve idle watcher documentation slightly.
27
285.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009
29 - support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect.
30 - implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep,
31 idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util.
32 - provide $AE::VERSION.
33 - removed traces of "no strict 'refs'".
34
355.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009
36 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
37 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
38 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
39 when passing scalar data to extensions).
40 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.
41 - upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03.
42 - use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS
43 (John Beppu).
44 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented.
45 - add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure
46 we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all
47 fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config.
48
495.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
50 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
51 (spotted by David Friedland).
52 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
53 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
54 unless you rip out everything but the core).
55 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
56 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
57
585.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
59 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
60 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
61 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
62 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
63 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
64
655.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
66 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
67 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
68 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
69 (analysed by elmex).
70
715.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
72 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
73 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
74 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
75 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
76 AnyEvent::Handle.
77 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
78 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
79 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
80 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
81
825.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
83 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
84 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
85 by Michael S. Fischer).
86 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
87 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
88 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
89 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
90 by default.
91 - fix some prototypes.
92 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
93 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
94
955.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
96 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
97 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
98 - port to broken win32 perls.
99
1005.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
101 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
102 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
103 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
104 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
105 OSes as well).
106
1075.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
108 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
109 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
110 to reduce dependency on JSON.
111
1125.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
113 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
114 one (was broken since 4.91).
115 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
116 when retrying a tcp_connect.
117 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
118 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
119
1205.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
121 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
122
1235.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
124 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
125 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
126 in AnyEvent::Handle.
127 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
128 settings.
129 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
130 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
131 exporting the probe function).
132 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
133 code to work around it's watcher limits.
134 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
135 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
136 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
137 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
138 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
139
1404.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
141 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
142 already contains some TLS handshake.
143 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
144 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
145 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
146 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
147 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
148
1494.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
150 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
151 a negative value, so avoid that.
152 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
153 after the condition is already signalled.
154 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
155 data.
156 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
157 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
158 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
159 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
160 any issues).
161 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
162 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
163 by name (not name or number).
164 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
165 only compiling signal code when necessary.
166 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
167 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
168 said future/alternative API.
169 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
170
1714.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
172 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
173 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
174 (analysed by elmex).
175
1764.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
177 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
178 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
179 for errors after every push_write etc.
180 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
181 platforms.
182
1834.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
184 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
185 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
186 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
187 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
188 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
189 tutorial accordingly.
190 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
191
1924.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
193 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
194 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
195 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
196 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
197 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
198 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
199 in IO::Async.
200
2014.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
202 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
203 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
204 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
205 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
206 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
207 documentation.
208 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
209 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
210 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
211 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
212 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
213 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
214
2154.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
216 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
217 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
218 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
219 this trap.
220 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
221 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
222 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
223 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
224 on_read callbacks.
225 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
226
2274.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
228 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
229 callbacks.
230 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
231 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
232 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
233 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
234 Event::Lib.
235 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
236 to rarely fail.
237
2384.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
239 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
240 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
241 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
242 in AnyEvent->io.
243 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
244 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
245 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
246 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
247 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
248 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
249 portable_socketpair.
250 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
251 YMMV.
252
2534.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009
254 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
255 uppercase targets.
256 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
257 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
258 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
259 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
260 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
261 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
262 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
263 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
264 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
265 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
266 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
267 in the common case.
268 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
269 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
270 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
271 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
272 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
273 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
274 from the constructor.
275 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
276 then fall back to JSON.
277 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
278 and because it was documented that way.
279
2804.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
281 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
282 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
283
2844.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
285 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
286 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
287 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
288 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
289 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
290 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
291 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
292 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
293 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
294
2954.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
296 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
297 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
298 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
299 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
300 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
301
3024.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
303 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
304 and set it on the default resolver.
305 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
306 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
307 when running in tainted mode.
308 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
309
3104.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
311 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
312
3134.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
314 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
315 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
316 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
317 destructors.
318 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
319 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
320 implementation.
321 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
322 for cosmetic reasons.
323
3244.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
325 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
326 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
327 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
328 - sped up Tk timer handling.
329 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
330 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
331 - fix Qt timers without interval.
332 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.
333
3344.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009
335 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
336 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
337 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
338
3394.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009
340 - actually make the signal pipe work under win32.
341 - localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although
342 perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either.
343 - set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too).
344
3454.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009
346 - event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did
347 invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation
348 and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own
349 event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make
350 callback execution synchronous to the event loop.
351 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY
352 (patch by Pavel Shaydo).
353 - work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker.
354 - document that changing global variables without restoring them
355 is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein).
356 - AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file.
357
3584.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009
359 - separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could
360 deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the
361 read queue (which cna only happen with TLS).
362 - raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors.
363 - fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß).
364 - speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl
365 backend.
366 - use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl.
367
3684.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009
369 - socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has
370 completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions,
371 so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works
372 (AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe).
373 - new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair.
374 - take advantage of the Guard module if it exists.
375
3764.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008
377 - AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as
378 illegal.
379 - reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend
380 by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle.
381 - add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported
382 by Adam Rosenstein).
383 - AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result
384 argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns).
385 - the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained.
386
3874.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008
388 - fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support
389 unix sockets again and choose a proper default for
390 the socket type.
391 - fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect.
392
3934.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008
394 - implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method.
395 - hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode.
396 - speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays
397 instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :)
398 - work around a perl argument refcounting bug.
399 - with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free.
400
4014.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008
402 - AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE,
403 unless one has been installed already.
404 - warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough
405 (patch by Adam Rosenstein).
406 - fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle:
407 - fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the
408 client would first wait for some data by the server and
409 otherwise hang. (reported and analysed in an absolutely
410 exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein).
411 - fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated
412 as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state.
413 (reported and analysed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam
414 Rosenstein).
415 - fix a potential segfault when the TLS context
416 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
417 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
418 - AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode.
419 - AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify
420 instead of simply destroying the stream now.
421 - fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode
422 would not be sent unless triggered by receives.
423 - on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account.
424 - SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster
425 now, more to come, though.
426 - added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there.
427
4284.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008
429 - fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported,
430 no trace events.
431 - mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle.
432 - perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock
433 when available and the monotonic clock option is not.
434 - run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not
435 provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have
436 Time::HiRes).
437
4384.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008
439 - fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang.
440 - clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments.
441
4424.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008
443 - fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error
444 callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice
445 (testcase by Leon Brocard).
446 - clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit.
447
4484.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008
449 - remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call
450 (and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows
451 perls without resource leaks or worse).
452
4534.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008
454 - document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be
455 the callback.
456 - add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases.
457 - optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default
458 eol marker.
459 - optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets.
460 - invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set.
461 - fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact.
462
4634.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008
464 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport.
465 - as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably
466 working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode
467 some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can
468 people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows.
469
4704.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008
471 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype
472 which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
473 - work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine
474 why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously
475 unusable way.
476 - avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in
477 AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly
478 K. Sharifulin).
479
4804.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008
481 - support an "interval" argument for repeating timers.
482 - fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to
483 be delayed under some circumstances.
484 - implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT.
485 - not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction
486 and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug.
487 - more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module,
488 seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit.
489 - minor optimisations applied to most backends.
490
4914.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008
492 - fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the
493 assumption that all data could be written before read
494 (reported by Jim Razmus).
495
4964.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008
497 - re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did
498 not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default
499 implementation (also affected child watchers).
500 - new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay.
501
5024.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008
503 - allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently
504 on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and
505 analysed by Keiichi DAIBA).
506
5074.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008
508 - make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads
509 works.
510
5114.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008
512 - the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than
513 one watcher was registered for the same fd.
514 - new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types
515 for AnyEvent::Handle.
516 - allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns.
517 - do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor.
518
5194.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008
520 - Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting.
521 - AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while
522 executing the guard block as warnings.
523 - handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle.
524
5254.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008
526 - AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2,
527 contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to
528 microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king.
529 - AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status
530 but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that
531 case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported
532 and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev).
533 - fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle:
534 when on_read was registered, the queue was empty
535 and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would
536 enter an endless loop.
537 - correctly start reading again when the handle became
538 busy again after idling.
539 - correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition
540 (for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that).
541 - correctly call eof callback under all conditions
542 (hopefully).
543 - the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go
544 away any time.
545
5464.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008
547 - include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent,
548 anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle.
549 - allow more options in on_error.
550
5514.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008
552 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace ptr by real PTR lookup, provide
553 reverse_lookup and reverse_verify to replace it, support
554 v4mapped and v4compat addresses.
555 - provide more documentation for the resolver class.
556 - really replace longest run of :0: by :: in format_address,
557 also properly convert :: and ::1 again.
558 - support NAPTR record name and decode it.
559 - implement random weight sampling for SRV records, as per
560 rfc 2782.
561 - correctly abort on srv-record targets of ".".
562 - added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot.
563 - in the unlikely event of a virtual circuit connection
564 being invalidated by a delayed udp reply, AnyEvent::DNS
565 could die. this has been fixed.
566 - plug a probable memleak in the DNS vc code.
567 - use configured timeout also for VC request phase.
568 - implement timeout and max_outstanding methods
569 for resolver class.
570 - update version numbers in all modules.
571
5724.1 Thu May 29 05:45:40 CEST 2008
573 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed xxx_ip functions to xxx_address
574 which mirrors their purpose better (old names still available
575 for a while). Also moved AnyEvent::DNS::addr to
576 AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr.
577 - implement AnyEvent->time and AnyEvent->now.
578 - fix IPv6 support in pack_sockaddr.
579 - officially un-experimentalise all newly introduced code.
580 - support unix domain sockets everywhere by specifying
581 a host of "unix/" and the pathname as service.
582 - implement an activity timeout in AnyEvent::Handle.
583 - added a regex read type to AnyEvent::Handle.
584 - added a json read/write type to AnyEvent::Handle.
585 - always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle.
586 - document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
587 - implement AnyEvent::Util::fork_call.
588 - add support for IPv6 nameservers and nameserver statements.
589 - work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty
590 select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this
591 workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops,
592 but EV also works around this).
593 - supply AnyEvent::Socket::address_type and make good use of it.
594 - clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle
595 vs. callback arguments.
596 - add some recommends to the META.yml.
597
5984.05 Mon May 26 19:44:06 CEST 2008
599 - some platforms ignore the rfc and prepend an extra sa_len member to
600 the sockaddr structure, cater for those. also use sockaddr_family,
601 didn't know it was there, but comes in handy for the workaround.
602 - undo the import WIN32 hack.
603
6044.04 Mon May 26 08:03:31 CEST 2008
605 - try to work around yet another windows bug: failed connects are reported
606 as if it were out-of-band data. windows users: you suck. Only
607 EV, Glib, Event and the pure perl backend can handle this condition.
608 - optimize write algorithm in AnyEvent::Handle.
609 - properly parse PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS and use the info correctly.
610 - tcp_connect now properly iterates through all targets.
611 - check wether IPv6 sockets can actually be created, otherwise, disable ipv6
612 support entirely. also hardcode some AF_INET6 constants for the
613 sake of perl 5.8.
614 - vastly improved nameserver/suffix detection algorithm for windows
615 (still a hack...)
616 - try to use a fallback dns server if no dns servers could be found.
617 - splatter around some local $SIG{__DIE__}'s to work around bad
618 die handlers.
619
6204.03 Sun May 25 05:05:57 CEST 2008
621 - work around perl bugs on windows, where perl returns undocumented
622 error codes for sysread, syswrite etc.
623 - fix AnyEvent::Handle::unshift_read to really unshift and not push.
624 - AnyEvent::Handle could sometimes stumble over 0-byte writes.
625 - fix unpack_sockaddr, now works for AF_INET6 sockaddr's.
626 - updated documentation.
627 - lots of workarounds for perl 5.8 quirks.
628 - implement a more flexible type system for both reads and writes
629 in AnyEvent::Handle.
630 - support IPv6 in tcp_server.
631 - pass local hostname and port to the prepare callback in tcp_server.
632 - make types extendable in AnyEvent::Handle.
633 - croak, not die, in AnyEvent::Handle;
634
