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 documentation cleanup.
11 - very minor optimisations and cleanups.
12 - avoid problems due to compiler inlining.
13
142.5 Tue Nov 7 12:22:33 CET 2006
15 - made Coro::Util, Coro::Select, Coro::Handle and Coro::Socket
16 use AnyEvent, moved them to Coro/.
17 - added Coro::LWP which contains all the uglyness required to
18 make LWP non-blocking.
19 - should work with perl 5.9.x now (Andreas König made me do it).
20 - fixed another bug in Coro::Select when the timeout was undef.
21 - reuse PL_start_env for all coros, saves some memory per coroutine.
22 - manage PL_top_env differently, hopefully to avoid panic: top_env.
23 - timeout argument was not properly used in Coro::Socket.
24 - allow limited forms of subclassing in Coro::Handle/Coro::Socket.
25 - emulate undocumented(!) functionality of IO::Socket required
26 by LWP(!!).
27 - updated eg/lwp to work with newer lwp's.
28 - remove "FATAL: uncaught exception" prefix. Coroutines that die
29 kill the whole process, just as exceptions in the main "coroutine"
30 did already.
31
322.1 Wed Nov 1 23:01:13 CET 2006
33 - fix a long-standing bug in Coro::Select where select with
34 zero timeout would instead change the current default filehandle.
35 - use a simpler and hopefully more robust way to clone padlists
36 (uses less memory and a perl function instead of our own).
37 - coro can now create a stack guard area on many architectures.
38 - Coro::AIO properly reexports additional functions from IO::AIO.
39 - updated libcoro with a workaround for OS X,
40 pach and testing by Michael Schwern.
41
422.0 Tue Oct 24 05:47:17 CEST 2006
43 - support additional aio requests in Coro::AIO.
44
451.9 (never properly released due to a glitch)
46
471.8 Thu Feb 2 00:59:06 CET 2006
48 - applied suggested patch by SAMV to avoid problems during stupid
49 mark & sweep gc run.
50 - applied patch by Scott Walters for 5.9.3 compatibility.
51
521.7 Tue Dec 27 01:41:58 CET 2005
53 - added Coro::AIO, a thin wrapper around IO::AIO.
54 - improved Makefile.PL explanations.
55
561.6 Mon Dec 12 21:30:05 CET 2005
57 - additionally save PM_curpm might fix as-of-yet
58 unseen problems with regex matches being attributed to the
59 wrong package.
60 - add t/10_bugs.t, which currently checks against imho broken
61 perls that use 0.26MB of stack space per Perl_magic_get
62 invocation (newer linuxes) as opposed to the 0.0002MB perl
63 normally uses.
64 - make stacksize configurable for the ultimate debian experience.
65
661.51 Mon Dec 12 18:48:36 CET 2005
67 - remove debugging warn() accidentally left in Coro::Select.
68
691.5 Tue Nov 29 13:32:44 CET 2005
70 - use Coro::Event inside Coro::Select to avoid spurious deadlocks.
71 - fix Coro::Select 'select'.
72 - strict'ify some modules.
73 - libcoro errornously restored the SIGUSR2 handler to SIGUSR1.
74 - use XSLoader in selected modules.
75 - remove some 5.6 compatibility cruft.
76
771.4 Tue Sep 6 00:11:05 CEST 2005
78 - libcoro did not take into account the trampoline on amd64,
79 when 'l'inux method was used.
80
811.31 Tue Aug 30 23:31:33 CEST 2005
82 - some portability fixes/workarounds.
83
841.3 Sat Aug 20 03:08:56 CEST 2005
85 - no code changes. module seems to work fine.
86 - improve Coro::State docs, remove reference to nonexisting
87 Coro::State::flush method.
88 - no longer autodetect windows, present it as an option instead.
89
901.2 Mon May 16 02:00:55 CEST 2005
91 - included libcoro.c earlier in State.xs, might improve portability.
92 - use a faster and possibly more stable Coro::Cont implementation.
93 - accept x86_64 in addition to amd64 for optimized linux-amd64 support.
94 - fix bugs Coro::SemaphoreSet that could cause locks never to be freed.
95 - fix bugs in CoroAPI.h and document it in Coro::MakeMaker.
96
971.11 Thu Mar 3 18:00:52 CET 2005
98 - change of contact address.
