1 Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
2
3 - work around recurring bugs in Tk by dup'ing filehandles, the
4 only method with good success chances on Tk.
5 - lift the restriction of only one watcher per fh direction
6 (as the Tk bug workaround also lifts it and only Tk imposed
7 such strong limits).
8 - changed probe order to prefer coro adaptors.
9 - explain why recursion into the event loop is not supported
10 unless the backend supports it (only Coro::EV does without
11 any restrictions...).
12 - add simple manpages for all backend modules.
13
14 3.0 Mon Apr 7 21:30:23 CEST 2008
15 - Coro::Signal changed semantics, roll our own, also cleaning
16 up the Coro implementation in general.
17 - rename Coro backend to CoroEvent.
18 - add some decision helping paragraph to the manpage that should
19 help people to decide wether AnyEvent is the right thing for them.
20
21 2.9 Mon Jan 28 13:31:54 CET 2008
22 - update for EV 3.0 API changes.
23
24 2.8 Sun Nov 25 15:06:03 CET 2007
25 - waitpid can validly return 0. accept this fact of life
26 instead of reporting it to any watchers.
27
28 2.7 Fri Nov 23 11:41:14 CET 2007
29 - force use of AnyEvent::Impl::Perl in testsuite, there is
30 too much breakage outside AnyEvent.
31 - deliver signals synchronously in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl
32 or any other event loop that relies on AnyEvents child
33 watcher emulation. *Could* help with hanging testsuite
34 (except when Event or EV are installed).
35
36 2.6 Fri Nov 9 20:36:35 CET 2007
37 - fix bug in testsuite.
38 - move EV adaptor modules to AnyEvent.
39 - add Coro+EV adaptor module.
40
41 2.55 Tue Nov 6 17:41:32 CET 2007
42 - add EV to the list of supported event models.
43 - do not auto-reset pid watchers, pass pid and status to them.
44 - allow a pid of zero to watch for all children in child watchers.
45
46 2.54 Wed Jul 18 17:36:23 CEST 2007
47 - work around a perl bug that results in
48 BEGIN not safe after errors--compilation aborted without
49 any discernible reason or error message by once
50 again not use'ing strict.
51
52 2.53 Sun Jul 8 10:51:53 CEST 2007
53 - make Glib interface work again (spotted by elmex).
54
55 2.52 Wed Mar 7 18:36:16 CET 2007
56 - child watchers stopped working permanently when
57 all current child watchers were destroyed.
58
59 2.51 Mon Dec 11 21:33:24 CET 2006
60 - work around bugs in perl where eval "require Module" returns
61 true even if the module couldn't be loaded :/.
62
63 2.5 Mon Dec 11 02:15:28 CET 2006
64 - avoid $AUTOLOAD because many perls corrupt it.
65 - AnyEvent::detect forces autodetection.
66 - implement signal watchers (experimental)
67 (Tk does not support async signals (<= 804.027 at least),
68 so they might get delayed indefinitely on Tk).
69 - implement child watchers (experimental).
70 - moved default condvar implementation into base module, simplifying
71 most implementation modules.
72
73 2.1 Fri Nov 24 15:50:48 CET 2006
74 - better docs.
75 - simple testsuite.
76 - added AnyEvent->one_event method for special purposes.
77
78 2.0 Wed Nov 1 02:21:30 CET 2006
79 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: poll can now either be "r" or "w" but not both.
80 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: io watcher callbacks have no arguments anymore.
81 - EXPERIMENTAL:
82 new pure-perl model added, AnyEvent now always finds a suitable
83 event model.
84 - improved documentation.
85 - reduced cpu overhead.
86
87 1.02 Fri Jan 13 14:15:40 CET 2006
88 - add COPYING to clarify license.
89
90 1.01 Sun Jan 8 05:48:09 CET 2006
91 - correctly cancel Event timers, avoid memory leaks.
92
93 1.0 Sun Jan 8 05:40:58 CET 2006
94 - allow third-party interfaces to be added at runtime.
95 - fix version number.
96
97 0.9 Fri Dec 30 02:25:41 CET 2005
98 - fixed errors in the documentation.
99 - going back to using $VERSION as "load check",
100 as suggested by Jörn Reder. Let's see why I stopped using
101 this method.
102 - add 'hup' to the list of events to receive for glib
103 and generate 'rw' events for it, as some versions of
104 glib seem to require this, while this breaks other
105 (older) versions of glib.
106 - implemented PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE env variable.
107
108 0.3 Sun Dec 4 10:43:33 CET 2005
109 - no changes to the code.
110 - fixed documentation.
111 - clarified some corner cases.
112 - vastly improved documentation with a long example.
113
114 0.2 Thu Dec 1 22:18:49 CET 2005
115 - check wether a valid method was called, to avoid endless loops.
116 - move condvars into their own class (cleaner, safer).
117 - don't die when some modules are not available.
118 - Tk is too broken to allow for words. Will work once Tk works.
119
120 0.1 Thu Dec 1 19:44:57 CET 2005
121 - spiced up and cleaned up for release.
122
123 0.01 Tue Sep 21 18:12:09 CEST 2004
124 - original version; copied from Convert::Scalar.
