2 2
3TODO: Coro::Select (select) and "" both don'T work 3 - reimplement a new stack sharing algorithm.
4 - make stack sharing mandatory (it no longer uses a heuristic).
5 - eval/die no longer cause weird problems under heavy use.
6 - Coro::Event could cause livelocks if it was used but
7 Event watchers were used directly.
8 - Coro::Event should be cleaner and more efficient now.
9 - minor incompatibility: subclassing is supported directly now
10 without going through a _coro_state member.
11 - state/coro switching is much faster now.
12 - very minor optimisations and code/documentation cleanup.
13 - avoid problems due to compiler inlining.
14 - removed timers from Coro::Timer -> use AnyEvent instead.
15 - replaced Coro::idle coroutine by (cleaner) idle handler.
16 - updated to newest libcoro.

182.5 Tue Nov 7 12:22:33 CET 2006
19 - made Coro::Util, Coro::Select, Coro::Handle and Coro::Socket
20 use AnyEvent, moved them to Coro/.
21 - added Coro::LWP which contains all the uglyness required to
22 make LWP non-blocking.
23 - should work with perl 5.9.x now (Andreas König made me do it).
24 - fixed another bug in Coro::Select when the timeout was undef.
25 - reuse PL_start_env for all coros, saves some memory per coroutine.
26 - manage PL_top_env differently, hopefully to avoid panic: top_env.
27 - timeout argument was not properly used in Coro::Socket.
28 - allow limited forms of subclassing in Coro::Handle/Coro::Socket.
29 - emulate undocumented(!) functionality of IO::Socket required
30 by LWP(!!).
31 - updated eg/lwp to work with newer lwp's.
32 - remove "FATAL: uncaught exception" prefix. Coroutines that die
33 kill the whole process, just as exceptions in the main "coroutine"
34 did already.
35
362.1 Wed Nov 1 23:01:13 CET 2006
37 - fix a long-standing bug in Coro::Select where select with
38 zero timeout would instead change the current default filehandle.
39 - use a simpler and hopefully more robust way to clone padlists
40 (uses less memory and a perl function instead of our own).
41 - coro can now create a stack guard area on many architectures.
42 - Coro::AIO properly reexports additional functions from IO::AIO.
43 - updated libcoro with a workaround for OS X,
44 pach and testing by Michael Schwern.

462.0 Tue Oct 24 05:47:17 CEST 2006
47 - support additional aio requests in Coro::AIO.

491.9 (never properly released due to a glitch)

511.8 Thu Feb 2 00:59:06 CET 2006
52 - applied suggested patch by SAMV to avoid problems during stupid
53 mark & sweep gc run.
54 - applied patch by Scott Walters for 5.9.3 compatibility.
55
561.7 Tue Dec 27 01:41:58 CET 2005
57 - added Coro::AIO, a thin wrapper around IO::AIO.
58 - improved Makefile.PL explanations.
59
601.6 Mon Dec 12 21:30:05 CET 2005
61 - additionally save PM_curpm might fix as-of-yet
62 unseen problems with regex matches being attributed to the
63 wrong package.
64 - add t/10_bugs.t, which currently checks against imho broken
65 perls that use 0.26MB of stack space per Perl_magic_get
66 invocation (newer linuxes) as opposed to the 0.0002MB perl
67 normally uses.
68 - make stacksize configurable for the ultimate debian experience.
69
701.51 Mon Dec 12 18:48:36 CET 2005
71 - remove debugging warn() accidentally left in Coro::Select.
72
731.5 Tue Nov 29 13:32:44 CET 2005
74 - use Coro::Event inside Coro::Select to avoid spurious deadlocks.
75 - fix Coro::Select 'select'.
76 - strict'ify some modules.
5 - libcoro errornously restored the SIGUSR2 handler to SIGUSR1. 77 - libcoro errornously restored the SIGUSR2 handler to SIGUSR1.
78 - use XSLoader in selected modules.
79 - remove some 5.6 compatibility cruft.
