3TODO: better (earlier) error messages on broken transfer's 3TODO: better (earlier) error messages on broken transfer's
4TODO: destroy gets only called on cancel: fix(?)
5TODO: should explore PerlIO::via::CoroCede and PerlIO::via::CoroAIO.
6TODO: maybe implement a default message channel, very much like Erlang
7 (which is cool in a lot of important aspects (failures!),
8 but very lacking in others).

10 - upgrade libcoro.
11
123.61 Thu Apr 19 12:36:18 CEST 2007
13 - Coro::Storable caused an endless loop when thawing invalid
14 pst's sometimes.
15 - use a Semaphore in Coro::Storable, as Storable doesn't
16 seem to be reentrant (although it is documented to
17 be threadsafe...).
18 - fix Coro::Signal to bring back the original unreliable
19 but stateful semantics.
20 - fixed a lot of typos in Coro.pm (patch submitted by David
21 Steinbrunner, which applied flawlessly).
22
233.6 Sat Apr 14 17:13:31 CEST 2007
24 - added some bugfixes to get eg/myhttpd working again.
25 - added Coro::Storable for often-cede'ing freeze/thaw.
26 - try to do a clean exit when a coroutine calls exit
27 (EXPERIMENTAL).
28 - got rid of indirect call through _coro_init.
29 - updated the partly antique examples in eg/ to
30 work again and be a bit less magic, too.
31 - fixed Coro::Signal semantics to work as documented again.
32
333.55 Sun Mar 25 01:20:47 CET 2007
34 - add SAVE_DEFFH to save the default filehandle and enable
35 it by default.
36 - finally move socket-operations from Coro::Socket to Coro::Handle
37 to be able to unblock foreign sockets.
38 - add Coro::State::save_also and guarded_save.
39 - add count accessor to Coro::Semaphore.
40 - add Coro::State::cctx_stacksize.
41 - just for the fun of it, do not rely on implicit context,
42 which can dramatically improve performance, but people
43 using windows-process-emulation perls do not care much about
44 performance.
45
463.51 Sun Mar 4 14:18:04 CET 2007
47 - fixed a problem when you weakened references to Coro::State's
48 (patch by Yuval Kogman).
49
503.501 Wed Feb 28 12:44:07 CET 2007
51 - rename some global symbols as macosx from hell redefines
52 them without asking.
53
543.5 Tue Feb 13 20:22:53 CET 2007
55 - do AnyEvent model detection earlier, avoiding problems
56 caused by first using AnyEvent and later Coro::Event.
57 - implement and document Coro::Event event objects.
58 - fix a potential problem in Coro::Event causing crashes.
59 - initialise PL_comppad when creating a new coroutine,
60 avoids crashes on early coro destruction.
61
623.41 Mon Jan 22 19:19:49 CET 2007
63 - readline on Coro::Handle did not support undefined $/,
64 nor did it deliver partial lines on EOF or error.
65 - implement malloc fallback for stack allocation because
66 stupid broken idiotic OSX has a stupid broken
67 idiotic fits-the-whole-os mmap "implementation" and
68 my dick feels longer if Coro is portable even to
69 obsolete platforms.
70
713.4 Fri Jan 19 21:52:54 CET 2007
72 - remove t/09_timer.t, as it isn't really testing much
73 but was rather flaky in practise.
74 - async_pool coro would keep arguments and callback alive until
75 it was reused.
76 - cancellation of a coroutine could cause spurious idle calls
77 in cede_notself.
78
793.3 Sat Jan 6 03:45:00 CET 2007
80 - implement $coro->on_destroy.
81 - Coro::Event blocking semantics have been changed,
82 documented and - hopefully - improved.
5 - fix nice adding, not subtracting, from priority. 83 - fix nice adding, not subtracting, from priority.
84 - fix ->prio and api_is_ready (patch by Mark Hinds).
85 - fixed an assert ("... == prev__cctx->idle_te")
86 that could errronously trigger.
87 - fix various large and small memleaks.
88 - use a (hopefully) more stable cancel implementation
89 that immediately frees the coroutine data.
90 - cede/cede_notself return a status now.
91 - added Coro::guard function.
92 - added a global coroutine pool for jobs (on my machine,
93 I can create and execute 48k simple coros/s with async,
94 and 128k coros with async_pool).
95 - Coro::AIO now uses the coroutine priority as io priority.
