3TODO: check wether stack-sharing is still effective
4TODO: more effective stack sharing by having one "default stack" for "simple" coroutines?
5TODO: verify exception frame changes and force stack copies?
6
7 - Coro::Event could cause livelocks if it was used but
8 Event watchers were used directly.
9 - Coro::Event should be cleaner and more efficient now.
10 - minor incompatibility: subclassing is supported directly now
11 without going through a _coro_state member.
12 - process swicthing is much faster now.
13 - very minor optimisations and code/documentation cleanup.
14 - avoid problems due to compiler inlining.
15 - possibly better support for threads.
16 - removed timers from Coro::Timer -> use AnyEvent instead.
17 - replaced Coro::idle coroutine by (cleaner) idle handler.
18
192.5 Tue Nov 7 12:22:33 CET 2006
20 - made Coro::Util, Coro::Select, Coro::Handle and Coro::Socket
21 use AnyEvent, moved them to Coro/.
22 - added Coro::LWP which contains all the uglyness required to
23 make LWP non-blocking.
24 - should work with perl 5.9.x now (Andreas König made me do it).
25 - fixed another bug in Coro::Select when the timeout was undef.
26 - reuse PL_start_env for all coros, saves some memory per coroutine.
27 - manage PL_top_env differently, hopefully to avoid panic: top_env.
28 - timeout argument was not properly used in Coro::Socket.
29 - allow limited forms of subclassing in Coro::Handle/Coro::Socket.
30 - emulate undocumented(!) functionality of IO::Socket required
31 by LWP(!!).
32 - updated eg/lwp to work with newer lwp's.
33 - remove "FATAL: uncaught exception" prefix. Coroutines that die
34 kill the whole process, just as exceptions in the main "coroutine"
35 did already.
36
372.1 Wed Nov 1 23:01:13 CET 2006
38 - fix a long-standing bug in Coro::Select where select with
39 zero timeout would instead change the current default filehandle.
40 - use a simpler and hopefully more robust way to clone padlists
41 (uses less memory and a perl function instead of our own).
42 - coro can now create a stack guard area on many architectures.
43 - Coro::AIO properly reexports additional functions from IO::AIO.
44 - updated libcoro with a workaround for OS X,
45 pach and testing by Michael Schwern.
46
472.0 Tue Oct 24 05:47:17 CEST 2006
48 - support additional aio requests in Coro::AIO.
49
501.9 (never properly released due to a glitch)
51
521.8 Thu Feb 2 00:59:06 CET 2006
53 - applied suggested patch by SAMV to avoid problems during stupid
54 mark & sweep gc run.
55 - applied patch by Scott Walters for 5.9.3 compatibility.
56
571.7 Tue Dec 27 01:41:58 CET 2005
58 - added Coro::AIO, a thin wrapper around IO::AIO.
59 - improved Makefile.PL explanations.
60
611.6 Mon Dec 12 21:30:05 CET 2005
62 - additionally save PM_curpm might fix as-of-yet
63 unseen problems with regex matches being attributed to the
64 wrong package.
65 - add t/10_bugs.t, which currently checks against imho broken
66 perls that use 0.26MB of stack space per Perl_magic_get
67 invocation (newer linuxes) as opposed to the 0.0002MB perl
68 normally uses.
69 - make stacksize configurable for the ultimate debian experience.
70
711.51 Mon Dec 12 18:48:36 CET 2005
72 - remove debugging warn() accidentally left in Coro::Select.
73
741.5 Tue Nov 29 13:32:44 CET 2005
75 - use Coro::Event inside Coro::Select to avoid spurious deadlocks.
76 - fix Coro::Select 'select'.
77 - strict'ify some modules.
78 - libcoro errornously restored the SIGUSR2 handler to SIGUSR1.
79 - use XSLoader in selected modules.
80 - remove some 5.6 compatibility cruft.
81
821.4 Tue Sep 6 00:11:05 CEST 2005
83 - libcoro did not take into account the trampoline on amd64,
84 when 'l'inux method was used.
85
861.31 Tue Aug 30 23:31:33 CEST 2005
87 - some portability fixes/workarounds.
88
891.3 Sat Aug 20 03:08:56 CEST 2005
90 - no code changes. module seems to work fine.
91 - improve Coro::State docs, remove reference to nonexisting
92 Coro::State::flush method.
93 - no longer autodetect windows, present it as an option instead.
94
951.2 Mon May 16 02:00:55 CEST 2005
3 - included libcoro.c earlier in State.xs, might improve portability. 96 - included libcoro.c earlier in State.xs, might improve portability.
4 - use a faster and possibly more stable Coro::Cont implementation. 97 - use a faster and possibly more stable Coro::Cont implementation.
5 - accept x86_64 in addition to amd64 for optimized linux-amd64 support. 98 - accept x86_64 in addition to amd64 for optimized linux-amd64 support.
6 - fix bugs Coro::SemaphoreSet that could cause locks never to be freed. 99 - fix bugs Coro::SemaphoreSet that could cause locks never to be freed.
100 - fix bugs in CoroAPI.h and document it in Coro::MakeMaker.
