1 Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent.
2
3 3.1 Wed Apr 16 17:09:01 CEST 2008
4 - work around recurring bugs in Tk by dup'ing filehandles, the
5 only method with good success chances on Tk (the bugs apparently
6 don't get fixed anytime soon).
7 - lift the restriction of only one watcher per fh direction
8 (as the Tk bug workaround also lifts it and only Tk imposed
9 such strong limits).
10 - changed probe order to prefer coro adaptors.
11 - explain why recursion into the event loop is not supported
12 unless the backend supports it (only Coro::EV does without
13 any restrictions...).
14 - add simple manpages for all backend modules.
15
16 3.0 Mon Apr 7 21:30:23 CEST 2008
17 - Coro::Signal changed semantics, roll our own, also cleaning
18 up the Coro implementation in general.
19 - rename Coro backend to CoroEvent.
20 - add some decision helping paragraph to the manpage that should
21 help people to decide whether AnyEvent is the right thing for them.
22
23 2.9 Mon Jan 28 13:31:54 CET 2008
24 - update for EV 3.0 API changes.
25
26 2.8 Sun Nov 25 15:06:03 CET 2007
27 - waitpid can validly return 0. accept this fact of life
28 instead of reporting it to any watchers.
29
30 2.7 Fri Nov 23 11:41:14 CET 2007
31 - force use of AnyEvent::Impl::Perl in testsuite, there is
32 too much breakage outside AnyEvent.
33 - deliver signals synchronously in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl
34 or any other event loop that relies on AnyEvents child
35 watcher emulation. *Could* help with hanging testsuite
36 (except when Event or EV are installed).
37
38 2.6 Fri Nov 9 20:36:35 CET 2007
39 - fix bug in testsuite.
40 - move EV adaptor modules to AnyEvent.
41 - add Coro+EV adaptor module.
42
43 2.55 Tue Nov 6 17:41:32 CET 2007
44 - add EV to the list of supported event models.
45 - do not auto-reset pid watchers, pass pid and status to them.
46 - allow a pid of zero to watch for all children in child watchers.
47
48 2.54 Wed Jul 18 17:36:23 CEST 2007
49 - work around a perl bug that results in
50 BEGIN not safe after errors--compilation aborted without
51 any discernible reason or error message by once
52 again not use'ing strict.
53
54 2.53 Sun Jul 8 10:51:53 CEST 2007
55 - make Glib interface work again (spotted by elmex).
56
57 2.52 Wed Mar 7 18:36:16 CET 2007
58 - child watchers stopped working permanently when
59 all current child watchers were destroyed.
60
61 2.51 Mon Dec 11 21:33:24 CET 2006
62 - work around bugs in perl where eval "require Module" returns
63 true even if the module couldn't be loaded :/.
64
65 2.5 Mon Dec 11 02:15:28 CET 2006
66 - avoid $AUTOLOAD because many perls corrupt it.
67 - AnyEvent::detect forces autodetection.
68 - implement signal watchers (experimental)
69 (Tk does not support async signals (<= 804.027 at least),
70 so they might get delayed indefinitely on Tk).
71 - implement child watchers (experimental).
72 - moved default condvar implementation into base module, simplifying
73 most implementation modules.
74
75 2.1 Fri Nov 24 15:50:48 CET 2006
76 - better docs.
77 - simple testsuite.
78 - added AnyEvent->one_event method for special purposes.
79
80 2.0 Wed Nov 1 02:21:30 CET 2006
81 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: poll can now either be "r" or "w" but not both.
82 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: io watcher callbacks have no arguments anymore.
83 - EXPERIMENTAL:
84 new pure-perl model added, AnyEvent now always finds a suitable
85 event model.
86 - improved documentation.
87 - reduced cpu overhead.
88
89 1.02 Fri Jan 13 14:15:40 CET 2006
90 - add COPYING to clarify license.
91
92 1.01 Sun Jan 8 05:48:09 CET 2006
93 - correctly cancel Event timers, avoid memory leaks.
94
95 1.0 Sun Jan 8 05:40:58 CET 2006
96 - allow third-party interfaces to be added at runtime.
97 - fix version number.
98
99 0.9 Fri Dec 30 02:25:41 CET 2005
100 - fixed errors in the documentation.
101 - going back to using $VERSION as "load check",
102 as suggested by Jörn Reder. Let's see why I stopped using
103 this method.
104 - add 'hup' to the list of events to receive for glib
105 and generate 'rw' events for it, as some versions of
106 glib seem to require this, while this breaks other
107 (older) versions of glib.
108 - implemented PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE env variable.
109
110 0.3 Sun Dec 4 10:43:33 CET 2005
111 - no changes to the code.
112 - fixed documentation.
113 - clarified some corner cases.
114 - vastly improved documentation with a long example.
115
116 0.2 Thu Dec 1 22:18:49 CET 2005
117 - check whether a valid method was called, to avoid endless loops.
118 - move condvars into their own class (cleaner, safer).
119 - don't die when some modules are not available.
120 - Tk is too broken to allow for words. Will work once Tk works.
121
122 0.1 Thu Dec 1 19:44:57 CET 2005
123 - spiced up and cleaned up for release.
124
125 0.01 Tue Sep 21 18:12:09 CEST 2004
126 - original version; copied from Convert::Scalar.
