2    
3 root 1.36 0.45
4     - new method Coro::Handle::timeout.
5     - corrected speling of set...name to get...name in Coro::Socket.
6     - Coro::Socket::accept now returns a Coro::Socket, not a Coro::Handle.
7     - Coro::Handle now supports fileno and FILENO.
8     - added eg/myhttpd, a web server.
9 root 1.37 - Coro::Socket now accepts numeric ports as well as "port(number)"
10     syntax.
11 root 1.38 - moved some scheduling primitives into xs code. more to come.
12 root 1.39 - new simple priority system.
13 root 1.40 - implemented Coro::Event using XS, almost four times faster!
14 root 1.36
15 root 1.35 0.13 Wed Aug 8 16:53:07 CEST 2001
16 root 1.31 - new method Coro::Handle::readline.
17 root 1.34 - added eg/lwp and Coro::Handle::autoflush, to make LWP work.
18     (see eg/lwp on how to make LWP non-blocking).
19 root 1.31 - renamed Coro::Socket::new_inet to new.
20 root 1.32 - added Coro::Util, some utility functions.
21 root 1.33 - die/eval now works better (still get annoying (but true ;)
22     "Callback called exit" messages).
23 root 1.34 - Coro::Handle now supports timeout, and Coro::Socket Timeout.
24     - much better Coro::Socket support.
25 root 1.31
26     0.12 Fri Jul 27 04:19:01 CEST 2001
27 root 1.29 - do not use mmap if neither MAP_ANON nor MAP_ANONYMOUS is defined.
28 root 1.34 - very experimental stack sharing algorithm. not 100% safe but
29 root 1.28 should work well in practise ;)
30 root 1.30 - added Coro::RWLock.
31 root 1.31 - Coro::Specific now works.
32 root 1.28
33     0.11 Tue Jul 24 22:49:21 CEST 2001
34 root 1.27 - added specialized hack for newer and older linux versions (fast).
35     - renamed Coro::Event::IO to Coro::Handle.
36     - new module Coro::Socket.
37    
38 root 1.26 0.1 Tue Jul 24 01:47:53 CEST 2001
39 root 1.23 - release candidate 3. A rather new internal structure :(
40 root 1.24 - the great renaming: Damian Conway gave me a suitable replacement
41     for yield.
42 root 1.23 - added Coro/libcoro, a portable coroutine implementation for C
43 root 1.22 (not even perl-dependent!!!), which can be used by Coro::State.
44 root 1.20 - renamed SAVE_DEFSV (on xs-level only) to avoid symbol clash in
45     perl-5.6.
46 root 1.16 - new function Coro::Event::idle.
47     - the idle process is now overriden
48     by default in Coro::Event.
49 root 1.17 - Coro::Channel now enforces the size.
50 root 1.18 - canceling events now works in all cases.
51 root 1.19 - Coro state now include $_ and $@.
52     - yet another bug workaround that I do not really understand :(
53 root 1.21 - new module Coro::Event::IO (very undocumented) to do
54     non-blocking i/o.
55 root 1.25 - performance tuning.
56 root 1.16
57 root 1.15 0.08 Thu Jul 19 06:13:25 CEST 2001
58 root 1.14 - release candidate 2 (new functionality).
59 root 1.13 - add Coro::State::flush function.
60     - transfer now supports a flags value (mostly for speed ATM).
61     - might compile and work in the presence of threads now.
62 root 1.14 - continuations have a saner syntax.
63 root 1.19 - no more memleaks.
64 root 1.13
65 root 1.12 0.07 Tue Jul 17 17:40:18 CEST 2001
66     - release candidate 1 ;)
67     - slightly nicer code.
68     - fixed a scheduling bug in Coro::Event.
69    
70 root 1.11 0.06 Tue Jul 17 04:23:24 CEST 2001
71     - ok, I found the showstopper - the same sub must not be
72 root 1.9 re-entered in two different coroutines, otherwise => crash. I
73     see no easy solution to this problem, except by walking the call
74     chaing and saving/restoring the cv's, which is what I do now.
75 root 1.11 - memory leaks still latent, especially at thread termination.
76     - Coro::Event now works (haha).
77 root 1.9
78 root 1.8 0.05 Sun Jul 15 17:32:20 CEST 2001
79     - fixed a few issues in Coro::Event.
80     - I forgot to include Coro::Event in 0.04 :(:(:(
81    
82 root 1.7 0.04 Sun Jul 15 05:24:59 CEST 2001
83 root 1.5 - @_ is now properly localized.
84 root 1.4 - Coro::State is now easier subclassable.
85     - Coro::Cont now coroutine-aware.
86     - Coro::Specific is a low-overhead module to create
87     coroutine-specific vars.
88 root 1.6 - Coro::Event provides a simple interface to Event.
89 root 1.4
90 root 1.3 0.03 Fri Jul 13 14:51:52 CEST 2001
91 root 1.4 - transfer() now implemented in XS (beware).
92     - new module Coro::Cont for really faked continuations.
93     - big internal architecture changes: Coro::State is now
94 root 1.3 really low-level and can thus be used to implement other
95 root 1.4 interesting things, While "Coro::" implements a process-like
96     model. Still crude and subject to change.
97 root 1.3 - $_ and $@ are no longer being localized.
98    
99 root 1.2 0.02 Tue Jul 10 01:38:17 CEST 2001
100     - implemented "async" attribute.
101     - $_ and $@ are now localized.
102     - added Coro::Channel.
103     - more testcases, still no docs.
104    
105 root 1.1 0.01 Tue Jul 3 02:18:41 CEST 2001
106     - original version; copied from Convert::Scalar.
