9 - force cctx allocation on API calls: we know we need to force one
10 and gcc actually manages to confuse our heuristic nowadays,
11 leading to crashes and worse.
12 - document force_cctx.
13
144.46 Fri Apr 4 22:05:43 CEST 2008
15 - upgrade libcoro, resulting in pthread-backend (which was only created
16 to fulfill the rules of the programming languages shootout).
17
184.45 Thu Mar 13 11:55:36 CET 2008
19 - fix a file leaking bug in eg/mhyttpd that would allow
20 downloading of any file (reported by oesi).
21 - fix deadlock bug in Coro::Channel (reported by Richard Hundt)
22 (also add testcase).
23 - support Broadcast option in Coro::Socket (patch by Richard Hundt,
24 apparently having loads of fun with that).
25 - implement $state->swap_defsv, ->swap_defav and document ->throw.
26
274.4 Wed Feb 13 16:44:29 CET 2008
28 - only assume .cfi pseudo isns exist on GNU/Linux.
29 - add get_timed method to Coro::Channels.
30 - fixed Coro::Debug manpage.
31 - perl 5.11 compatbility improvement based on patch by
32 Andreas König.
33
344.37 Sun Jan 20 11:25:23 CET 2008
35 - soften the check for an active parser for perl 5.10 (avoiding
36 "Coro::State::transfer called while parsing" in many cases).
37
384.36 Sun Jan 13 10:53:56 CET 2008
39 - reset diehook when terminating from an async_pool as to not
40 trigger any __DIE__ handlers.
41
424.35 Sun Jan 13 04:14:13 CET 2008
43 - "bt" debug command now displays any exceptions
44 from longmess and also skips the innermost
45 stackframes, giving more useufl output.
46 - allow backtraces in coroutines blocked in Coro::EV,
47 at a <1% speed hit.
48 - handle localising of $SIG{__WARN__} and __DIE__
49 properly (with a proper amount of dirty hacking).
50
514.34 Sat Dec 22 17:49:53 CET 2007
52 - upgrade to EV version 2.0 API.
53
544.33 Mon Dec 17 08:36:12 CET 2007
55 - make Coro::AIO etc. loadable in the absence of EV.
56
574.32 Mon Dec 17 07:46:02 CET 2007
58 - majorly improved Coro::Handle's performance with Coro::EV.
59 - implemented the until now mythical Coro::BDB module.
60 - specialcase EV in Coro::AIO and Coro::BDB for extra speed.
61
624.31 Wed Dec 5 12:32:39 CET 2007
63 - remove warn statement form Coro::Util.
64
654.3 Tue Dec 4 20:33:14 CET 2007
66 - calls to the idle function could cause stack corruption
67 when the stack changed.
68 - do no longer rely on the presence of EV::DNS if EV is used
69 (because it is gone), but instead take avdantage of EV::ADNS
70 if available.
71 - add ($) prototypes to all functions in Coro::Storable.
72 - use a conventional (safer) idle callback in Coro::EV.
73 - do accept quickly in Coro::Debug to avoid endless loops.
74
754.22 Fri Nov 30 16:04:04 CET 2007
76 - really use optimised versions for Event and EV in Coro::Util
77 and Coro::Handle.
78
794.21 Sun Nov 25 10:48:59 CET 2007
80 - fix a spurious memory read.
81 - Coro::EV no longer keeps the eventloop "alive".
82
834.2 Fri Nov 9 20:47:05 CET 2007
84 - enable/disable tracing from a new coroutine, not a pooled one.
85 - fix a memleak in Coro::Event.
86 - removed killall call from fork_eval.
87 - made sure store_fd is already loaded so that fork_eval
88 does not have to parse autoload in each subprocess.
89 - only use assembly method if -O switch is in $Config{optimize}.
90 - add (optional) Coro::EV module, so far the best event loop module
91 directly supported by Coro.
92 - if the event model is EV, use EV::DNS to resolve
93 stuff in Coro::Util.
94 - don't get confused by multiple event notifications in Coro::Handle.
95 - initial support for EV (libevent interface).
96 - require Event and EV using configure_requires, to force their existance.
97
984.13 Wed Oct 24 07:26:45 CEST 2007
9 - add Coro::Storable::blocking_thaw. 99 - add Coro::Storable::blocking_thaw.
10 - use a vastly more complicated technique to localise 100 - use a vastly more complicated technique to localise
11 $SIG{__WARN/DIE__} that also works on perls <= 5.8.8. 101 $SIG{__WARN/DIE__} that also works on perls <= 5.8.8.
102 - use a coroutine for the idle callback Coro::Event,
103 instead of running Event in the current coroutine context.
104 This also catches recursive invocations.
105 - actually report fork errors in gethostbyname and inet_aton.

134.11 Thu Oct 11 02:40:24 CEST 2007 1074.11 Thu Oct 11 02:40:24 CEST 2007
