5as coroutine with higher priority. 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).

103.7
11 - incompatibly changed Coro::Storable::freeze.
12 - added Coro::Debug, interactive coroutine debugging.
13 - added Coro::Semaphore::adjust.
14 - added Coro::Util::fork_eval.
15 - added Coro::Storable::{nfreeze,blocking_{freeze,nfreeze}}.
16 - reduce initial stack sizes to allow for "micro-coroutines".
17 - many minor tweaks.
18
193.63 Wed May 16 14:10:06 CEST 2007
20 - implement handcoded assembly for x86/amd64 SVR ABI.
21
223.62 Fri Apr 27 21:36:06 CEST 2007
23 - upgrade libcoro (which might set unwind info correctly).
24 - change default on linux to setjmp/longjmp.
25
263.61 Thu Apr 19 12:36:18 CEST 2007
27 - Coro::Storable caused an endless loop when thawing invalid
28 pst's sometimes.
29 - use a Semaphore in Coro::Storable, as Storable doesn't
30 seem to be reentrant (although it is documented to
31 be threadsafe...).
32 - fix Coro::Signal to bring back the original unreliable
33 but stateful semantics.
34 - fixed a lot of typos in Coro.pm (patch submitted by David
35 Steinbrunner, which applied flawlessly).
36
373.6 Sat Apr 14 17:13:31 CEST 2007
38 - added some bugfixes to get eg/myhttpd working again.
39 - added Coro::Storable for often-cede'ing freeze/thaw.
40 - try to do a clean exit when a coroutine calls exit
41 (EXPERIMENTAL).
42 - got rid of indirect call through _coro_init.
43 - updated the partly antique examples in eg/ to
44 work again and be a bit less magic, too.
45 - fixed Coro::Signal semantics to work as documented again.
46
473.55 Sun Mar 25 01:20:47 CET 2007
48 - add SAVE_DEFFH to save the default filehandle and enable
49 it by default.
50 - finally move socket-operations from Coro::Socket to Coro::Handle
51 to be able to unblock foreign sockets.
52 - add Coro::State::save_also and guarded_save.
53 - add count accessor to Coro::Semaphore.
54 - add Coro::State::cctx_stacksize.
55 - just for the fun of it, do not rely on implicit context,
56 which can dramatically improve performance, but people
57 using windows-process-emulation perls do not care much about
58 performance.
59
603.51 Sun Mar 4 14:18:04 CET 2007
61 - fixed a problem when you weakened references to Coro::State's
62 (patch by Yuval Kogman).
63
643.501 Wed Feb 28 12:44:07 CET 2007
65 - rename some global symbols as macosx from hell redefines
66 them without asking.
67
683.5 Tue Feb 13 20:22:53 CET 2007
69 - do AnyEvent model detection earlier, avoiding problems
70 caused by first using AnyEvent and later Coro::Event.
71 - implement and document Coro::Event event objects.
72 - fix a potential problem in Coro::Event causing crashes.
73 - initialise PL_comppad when creating a new coroutine,
74 avoids crashes on early coro destruction.
75
763.41 Mon Jan 22 19:19:49 CET 2007
77 - readline on Coro::Handle did not support undefined $/,
78 nor did it deliver partial lines on EOF or error.
79 - implement malloc fallback for stack allocation because
80 stupid broken idiotic OSX has a stupid broken
81 idiotic fits-the-whole-os mmap "implementation" and
82 my dick feels longer if Coro is portable even to
83 obsolete platforms.
84
853.4 Fri Jan 19 21:52:54 CET 2007
86 - remove t/09_timer.t, as it isn't really testing much
87 but was rather flaky in practise.
88 - async_pool coro would keep arguments and callback alive until
89 it was reused.
90 - cancellation of a coroutine could cause spurious idle calls
91 in cede_notself.
92
933.3 Sat Jan 6 03:45:00 CET 2007
94 - implement $coro->on_destroy.
95 - Coro::Event blocking semantics have been changed,
96 documented and - hopefully - improved.
7 - fix nice adding, not subtracting, from priority. 97 - fix nice adding, not subtracting, from priority.
8 - fix ->prio and api_is_ready (patch by Mark Hinds). 98 - fix ->prio and api_is_ready (patch by Mark Hinds).
99 - fixed an assert ("... == prev__cctx->idle_te")
100 that could errronously trigger.
101 - fix various large and small memleaks.
102 - use a (hopefully) more stable cancel implementation
103 that immediately frees the coroutine data.
104 - cede/cede_notself return a status now.
105 - added Coro::guard function.
106 - added a global coroutine pool for jobs (on my machine,
107 I can create and execute 48k simple coros/s with async,
108 and 128k coros with async_pool).
109 - Coro::AIO now uses the coroutine priority as io priority.
