Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
- implement PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL env variable. |
| 4 |
- (experimental) implement interface to the (very crashy/buggy) Event::Lib module. |
| 5 |
- (experimental) implement interface to the Qt module (cannot be autoprobed). |
| 6 |
- support autoloading for child watchers, was broken in all versions. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
3.12 Tue Apr 22 07:11:46 CEST 2008 |
| 9 |
- reinstate AUTHOR section that got lost somehow. |
| 10 |
- do not hang in the testsuite with badly broken perls (activestate, |
| 11 |
strawberry...), but instead diagnose the problem and continue. |
| 12 |
- use INT instead of CHLD in an attempt to support broken windows perls |
| 13 |
better (this decreases the test quality, unfortunately). |
| 14 |
- do not send the signal to the process group |
| 15 |
(no problem for CHLD, bad for INT :). |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
3.11 Sat Apr 19 06:57:31 CEST 2008 |
| 18 |
- major documentation rework. |
| 19 |
- document the fact that child watchers only watch for zombies. |
| 20 |
- fix the child watcher example. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
3.1 Wed Apr 16 17:09:01 CEST 2008 |
| 23 |
- work around recurring bugs in Tk by dup'ing filehandles, the |
| 24 |
only method with good success chances on Tk (the bugs apparently |
| 25 |
don't get fixed anytime soon). |
| 26 |
- lift the restriction of only one watcher per fh direction |
| 27 |
(as the Tk bug workaround also lifts it and only Tk imposed |
| 28 |
such strong limits). |
| 29 |
- changed probe order to prefer coro adaptors. |
| 30 |
- explain why recursion into the event loop is not supported |
| 31 |
unless the backend supports it (only Coro::EV does without |
| 32 |
any restrictions...). |
| 33 |
- add simple manpages for all backend modules. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
3.0 Mon Apr 7 21:30:23 CEST 2008 |
| 36 |
- Coro::Signal changed semantics, roll our own, also cleaning |
| 37 |
up the Coro implementation in general. |
| 38 |
- rename Coro backend to CoroEvent. |
| 39 |
- add some decision helping paragraph to the manpage that should |
| 40 |
help people to decide whether AnyEvent is the right thing for them. |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
2.9 Mon Jan 28 13:31:54 CET 2008 |
| 43 |
- update for EV 3.0 API changes. |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
2.8 Sun Nov 25 15:06:03 CET 2007 |
| 46 |
- waitpid can validly return 0. accept this fact of life |
| 47 |
instead of reporting it to any watchers. |
| 48 |
|
| 49 |
2.7 Fri Nov 23 11:41:14 CET 2007 |
| 50 |
- force use of AnyEvent::Impl::Perl in testsuite, there is |
| 51 |
too much breakage outside AnyEvent. |
| 52 |
- deliver signals synchronously in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl |
| 53 |
or any other event loop that relies on AnyEvents child |
| 54 |
watcher emulation. *Could* help with hanging testsuite |
| 55 |
(except when Event or EV are installed). |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
2.6 Fri Nov 9 20:36:35 CET 2007 |
| 58 |
- fix bug in testsuite. |
| 59 |
- move EV adaptor modules to AnyEvent. |
| 60 |
- add Coro+EV adaptor module. |
| 61 |
|
| 62 |
2.55 Tue Nov 6 17:41:32 CET 2007 |
| 63 |
- add EV to the list of supported event models. |
| 64 |
- do not auto-reset pid watchers, pass pid and status to them. |
| 65 |
- allow a pid of zero to watch for all children in child watchers. |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
2.54 Wed Jul 18 17:36:23 CEST 2007 |
| 68 |
- work around a perl bug that results in |
| 69 |
BEGIN not safe after errors--compilation aborted without |
| 70 |
any discernible reason or error message by once |
| 71 |
again not use'ing strict. |
| 72 |
|
| 73 |
2.53 Sun Jul 8 10:51:53 CEST 2007 |
| 74 |
- make Glib interface work again (spotted by elmex). |
| 75 |
|
| 76 |
2.52 Wed Mar 7 18:36:16 CET 2007 |
| 77 |
- child watchers stopped working permanently when |
| 78 |
all current child watchers were destroyed. |
| 79 |
|
| 80 |
2.51 Mon Dec 11 21:33:24 CET 2006 |
| 81 |
- work around bugs in perl where eval "require Module" returns |
| 82 |
true even if the module couldn't be loaded :/. |
| 83 |
|
| 84 |
2.5 Mon Dec 11 02:15:28 CET 2006 |
| 85 |
- avoid $AUTOLOAD because many perls corrupt it. |
| 86 |
- AnyEvent::detect forces autodetection. |
| 87 |
- implement signal watchers (experimental) |
| 88 |
(Tk does not support async signals (<= 804.027 at least), |
| 89 |
so they might get delayed indefinitely on Tk). |
| 90 |
- implement child watchers (experimental). |
| 91 |
- moved default condvar implementation into base module, simplifying |
| 92 |
most implementation modules. |
| 93 |
|
| 94 |
2.1 Fri Nov 24 15:50:48 CET 2006 |
| 95 |
- better docs. |
| 96 |
- simple testsuite. |
| 97 |
- added AnyEvent->one_event method for special purposes. |
| 98 |
|
| 99 |
2.0 Wed Nov 1 02:21:30 CET 2006 |
| 100 |
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: poll can now either be "r" or "w" but not both. |
| 101 |
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: io watcher callbacks have no arguments anymore. |
| 102 |
- EXPERIMENTAL: |
| 103 |
new pure-perl model added, AnyEvent now always finds a suitable |
| 104 |
event model. |
| 105 |
- improved documentation. |
| 106 |
- reduced cpu overhead. |
| 107 |
|
| 108 |
1.02 Fri Jan 13 14:15:40 CET 2006 |
| 109 |
- add COPYING to clarify license. |
| 110 |
|
| 111 |
1.01 Sun Jan 8 05:48:09 CET 2006 |
| 112 |
- correctly cancel Event timers, avoid memory leaks. |
| 113 |
|
| 114 |
1.0 Sun Jan 8 05:40:58 CET 2006 |
| 115 |
- allow third-party interfaces to be added at runtime. |
| 116 |
- fix version number. |
| 117 |
|
| 118 |
0.9 Fri Dec 30 02:25:41 CET 2005 |
| 119 |
- fixed errors in the documentation. |
| 120 |
- going back to using $VERSION as "load check", |
| 121 |
as suggested by Jörn Reder. Let's see why I stopped using |
| 122 |
this method. |
| 123 |
- add 'hup' to the list of events to receive for glib |
| 124 |
and generate 'rw' events for it, as some versions of |
| 125 |
glib seem to require this, while this breaks other |
| 126 |
(older) versions of glib. |
| 127 |
- implemented PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE env variable. |
| 128 |
|
| 129 |
0.3 Sun Dec 4 10:43:33 CET 2005 |
| 130 |
- no changes to the code. |
| 131 |
- fixed documentation. |
| 132 |
- clarified some corner cases. |
| 133 |
- vastly improved documentation with a long example. |
| 134 |
|
| 135 |
0.2 Thu Dec 1 22:18:49 CET 2005 |
| 136 |
- check whether a valid method was called, to avoid endless loops. |
| 137 |
- move condvars into their own class (cleaner, safer). |
| 138 |
- don't die when some modules are not available. |
| 139 |
- Tk is too broken to allow for words. Will work once Tk works. |
| 140 |
|
| 141 |
0.1 Thu Dec 1 19:44:57 CET 2005 |
| 142 |
- spiced up and cleaned up for release. |
| 143 |
|
| 144 |
0.01 Tue Sep 21 18:12:09 CEST 2004 |
| 145 |
- original version; copied from Convert::Scalar. |
| 146 |
