| 3 | TODO: possibly convert some of the Event modules into AnyEvent users. |
3 | TODO: check wether stack-sharing is still effective |
|
|
4 | TODO: more effective stack sharing by having one "default stack" for "simple" coroutines? |
|
|
5 | TODO: verify exception frame changes and force stack copies? |
| 4 | |
6 | |
| 5 | - should compile with perl 5.9.x now. |
7 | - reimplement a new stack sharing algorithm. |
|
|
8 | - make stack sharing mandatory (it no longer uses a heuristic). |
|
|
9 | - Coro::Event could cause livelocks if it was used but |
|
|
10 | Event watchers were used directly. |
|
|
11 | - Coro::Event should be cleaner and more efficient now. |
|
|
12 | - minor incompatibility: subclassing is supported directly now |
|
|
13 | without going through a _coro_state member. |
|
|
14 | - process swicthing is much faster now. |
|
|
15 | - very minor optimisations and code/documentation cleanup. |
|
|
16 | - avoid problems due to compiler inlining. |
|
|
17 | - possibly better support for threads. |
|
|
18 | - removed timers from Coro::Timer -> use AnyEvent instead. |
|
|
19 | - replaced Coro::idle coroutine by (cleaner) idle handler. |

|
|
22 | - made Coro::Util, Coro::Select, Coro::Handle and Coro::Socket |
|
|
23 | use AnyEvent, moved them to Coro/. |
|
|
24 | - added Coro::LWP which contains all the uglyness required to |
|
|
25 | make LWP non-blocking. |
|
|
26 | - should work with perl 5.9.x now (Andreas König made me do it). |
|
|
27 | - fixed another bug in Coro::Select when the timeout was undef. |
|
|
28 | - reuse PL_start_env for all coros, saves some memory per coroutine. |
|
|
29 | - manage PL_top_env differently, hopefully to avoid panic: top_env. |
|
|
30 | - timeout argument was not properly used in Coro::Socket. |
|
|
31 | - allow limited forms of subclassing in Coro::Handle/Coro::Socket. |
|
|
32 | - emulate undocumented(!) functionality of IO::Socket required |
|
|
33 | by LWP(!!). |
|
|
34 | - updated eg/lwp to work with newer lwp's. |
|
|
35 | - remove "FATAL: uncaught exception" prefix. Coroutines that die |
|
|
36 | kill the whole process, just as exceptions in the main "coroutine" |
|
|
37 | did already. |
