2 2
33.0 3TODO: better (earlier) error messages on broken transfer's
4TODO: destroy gets only called on cancel: fix(?)
5
63.5
7 - do AnyEvent model detection earlier, avoiding problems
8 caused by first using AnyEvent and later Coro::Event.
9 - implement and document Coro::Event event objects.
10 - fix a potential problem in Coro::Event causing crashes.
11
123.41 Mon Jan 22 19:19:49 CET 2007
13 - readline on Coro::Handle did not support undefined $/,
14 nor did it deliver partial lines on EOF or error.
15 - implement malloc fallback for stack allocation because
16 stupid broken idiotic OSX has a stupid broken
17 idiotic fits-the-whole-os mmap "implementation" and
18 my dick feels longer if Coro is portable even to
19 obsolete platforms.

213.4 Fri Jan 19 21:52:54 CET 2007
22 - remove t/09_timer.t, as it isn't really testing much
23 but was rather flaky in practise.
24 - async_pool coro would keep arguments and callback alive until
25 it was reused.
26 - cancellation of a coroutine could cause spurious idle calls
27 in cede_notself.
28
293.3 Sat Jan 6 03:45:00 CET 2007
30 - implement $coro->on_destroy.
31 - Coro::Event blocking semantics have been changed,
32 documented and - hopefully - improved.
33 - fix nice adding, not subtracting, from priority.
34 - fix ->prio and api_is_ready (patch by Mark Hinds).
35 - fixed an assert ("... == prev__cctx->idle_te")
36 that could errronously trigger.
37 - fix various large and small memleaks.
38 - use a (hopefully) more stable cancel implementation
39 that immediately frees the coroutine data.
40 - cede/cede_notself return a status now.
41 - added Coro::guard function.
42 - added a global coroutine pool for jobs (on my machine,
43 I can create and execute 48k simple coros/s with async,
44 and 128k coros with async_pool).
45 - Coro::AIO now uses the coroutine priority as io priority.
46
473.2 Fri Dec 22 05:07:09 CET 2006
48 - improve portability to slightly older perls.
49 - use cleaner coroutine destruction.
50 - simplify configuration for users.
51 - optionally (unrecommended) prefer perl functions over
52 their coro replacements.
53
543.11 Tue Dec 5 13:11:24 CET 2006
55 - fixed some bogus assert's, but as perl.h disables assert even
56 without NDEBUG (thank you very much), not too many people should
57 notice (that did include myself). Andreas König noticed, though :)
58 - do not save/restore PL_sortcxix on >= 5.9.x, it doesn't seem to have
59 it. Also noticed by Andreas König :)
60 - save/restore tainted status.
61 - verified to pass the testsuite on my 5.9.5.
62
633.1 Mon Dec 4 23:03:40 CET 2006
64 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: $/ is now per-coroutine (but slow).
65 - incompatible change: transfer flags are now per-state.
66 - give a better error message on deadlock.
67 - document Coro::nready.
68 - enhanced testsuite.

71 - forgot to include Coro::Timer.

101 - removed Coro::Cont, it was a misnomer (it's generators),
102 and it was somewhat annoying to get it right. Will come back
103 if somebody asks for it :)
