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).

53.3 103.64
11 - added Coro::Semaphore::adjust.
12 - added Coro::Util::fork_eval.
13 - incompatibly changed Coro::Storable::freeze.
14 - added Coro::Storable::{nfreeze,blocking_{freeze,nfreeze}}.
15
163.63 Wed May 16 14:10:06 CEST 2007
17 - implement handcoded assembly for x86/amd64 SVR ABI.
18
193.62 Fri Apr 27 21:36:06 CEST 2007
20 - upgrade libcoro (which might set unwind info correctly).
21 - change default on linux to setjmp/longjmp.
22
233.61 Thu Apr 19 12:36:18 CEST 2007
24 - Coro::Storable caused an endless loop when thawing invalid
25 pst's sometimes.
26 - use a Semaphore in Coro::Storable, as Storable doesn't
27 seem to be reentrant (although it is documented to
28 be threadsafe...).
29 - fix Coro::Signal to bring back the original unreliable
30 but stateful semantics.
31 - fixed a lot of typos in Coro.pm (patch submitted by David
32 Steinbrunner, which applied flawlessly).
33
343.6 Sat Apr 14 17:13:31 CEST 2007
35 - added some bugfixes to get eg/myhttpd working again.
36 - added Coro::Storable for often-cede'ing freeze/thaw.
37 - try to do a clean exit when a coroutine calls exit
38 (EXPERIMENTAL).
39 - got rid of indirect call through _coro_init.
40 - updated the partly antique examples in eg/ to
41 work again and be a bit less magic, too.
42 - fixed Coro::Signal semantics to work as documented again.
43
443.55 Sun Mar 25 01:20:47 CET 2007
45 - add SAVE_DEFFH to save the default filehandle and enable
46 it by default.
47 - finally move socket-operations from Coro::Socket to Coro::Handle
48 to be able to unblock foreign sockets.
49 - add Coro::State::save_also and guarded_save.
50 - add count accessor to Coro::Semaphore.
51 - add Coro::State::cctx_stacksize.
52 - just for the fun of it, do not rely on implicit context,
53 which can dramatically improve performance, but people
54 using windows-process-emulation perls do not care much about
55 performance.
56
573.51 Sun Mar 4 14:18:04 CET 2007
58 - fixed a problem when you weakened references to Coro::State's
59 (patch by Yuval Kogman).
60
613.501 Wed Feb 28 12:44:07 CET 2007
62 - rename some global symbols as macosx from hell redefines
63 them without asking.
64
653.5 Tue Feb 13 20:22:53 CET 2007
66 - do AnyEvent model detection earlier, avoiding problems
67 caused by first using AnyEvent and later Coro::Event.
68 - implement and document Coro::Event event objects.
69 - fix a potential problem in Coro::Event causing crashes.
70 - initialise PL_comppad when creating a new coroutine,
71 avoids crashes on early coro destruction.
72
733.41 Mon Jan 22 19:19:49 CET 2007
74 - readline on Coro::Handle did not support undefined $/,
75 nor did it deliver partial lines on EOF or error.
76 - implement malloc fallback for stack allocation because
77 stupid broken idiotic OSX has a stupid broken
78 idiotic fits-the-whole-os mmap "implementation" and
79 my dick feels longer if Coro is portable even to
80 obsolete platforms.
81
823.4 Fri Jan 19 21:52:54 CET 2007
83 - remove t/09_timer.t, as it isn't really testing much
84 but was rather flaky in practise.
85 - async_pool coro would keep arguments and callback alive until
86 it was reused.
87 - cancellation of a coroutine could cause spurious idle calls
88 in cede_notself.
89
903.3 Sat Jan 6 03:45:00 CET 2007
6 - implement $coro->on_destroy. 91 - implement $coro->on_destroy.
7 - Coro::Event blocking semantics have been changed, 92 - Coro::Event blocking semantics have been changed,
8 documented and - hopefully - improved. 93 documented and - hopefully - improved.
9 - fix nice adding, not subtracting, from priority. 94 - fix nice adding, not subtracting, from priority.
10 - fix ->prio and api_is_ready (patch by Mark Hinds). 95 - fix ->prio and api_is_ready (patch by Mark Hinds).
96 - fixed an assert ("... == prev__cctx->idle_te")
97 that could errronously trigger.
98 - fix various large and small memleaks.
99 - use a (hopefully) more stable cancel implementation
100 that immediately frees the coroutine data.
101 - cede/cede_notself return a status now.
102 - added Coro::guard function.
103 - added a global coroutine pool for jobs (on my machine,
104 I can create and execute 48k simple coros/s with async,
105 and 128k coros with async_pool).
106 - Coro::AIO now uses the coroutine priority as io priority.

13 - improve portability to slightly older perls. 109 - improve portability to slightly older perls.
14 - use cleaner coroutine destruction. 110 - use cleaner coroutine destruction.
15 - simplify configuration for users. 111 - simplify configuration for users.
