9 - allow coroutine switches during eval's under 5.10.x, as it seems
10 the parser is a per-interpreter option now, so this is safe
11 (this might fix the odd crashing bug).
12 - drop support for 5.9.x versions: they are dead, jim.
13
144.47 Sun Apr 6 00:37:52 CEST 2008
15 - force cctx allocation on API calls: we know we need to force one
16 and gcc actually manages to confuse our heuristic nowadays,
17 leading to crashes and worse.
18 - document force_cctx.
19
204.46 Fri Apr 4 22:05:43 CEST 2008
21 - upgrade libcoro, resulting in pthread-backend (which was only created
22 to fulfill the rules of the programming languages shootout).
23
244.45 Thu Mar 13 11:55:36 CET 2008
25 - fix a file leaking bug in eg/mhyttpd that would allow
26 downloading of any file (reported by oesi).
27 - fix deadlock bug in Coro::Channel (reported by Richard Hundt)
28 (also add testcase).
29 - support Broadcast option in Coro::Socket (patch by Richard Hundt,
30 apparently having loads of fun with that).
31 - implement $state->swap_defsv, ->swap_defav and document ->throw.
32
334.4 Wed Feb 13 16:44:29 CET 2008
34 - only assume .cfi pseudo isns exist on GNU/Linux.
35 - add get_timed method to Coro::Channels.
36 - fixed Coro::Debug manpage.
37 - perl 5.11 compatbility improvement based on patch by
38 Andreas König.
39
404.37 Sun Jan 20 11:25:23 CET 2008
41 - soften the check for an active parser for perl 5.10 (avoiding
42 "Coro::State::transfer called while parsing" in many cases).
43
444.36 Sun Jan 13 10:53:56 CET 2008
45 - reset diehook when terminating from an async_pool as to not
46 trigger any __DIE__ handlers.
47
484.35 Sun Jan 13 04:14:13 CET 2008
49 - "bt" debug command now displays any exceptions
50 from longmess and also skips the innermost
51 stackframes, giving more useufl output.
52 - allow backtraces in coroutines blocked in Coro::EV,
53 at a <1% speed hit.
54 - handle localising of $SIG{__WARN__} and __DIE__
55 properly (with a proper amount of dirty hacking).
56
574.34 Sat Dec 22 17:49:53 CET 2007
58 - upgrade to EV version 2.0 API.
59
604.33 Mon Dec 17 08:36:12 CET 2007
61 - make Coro::AIO etc. loadable in the absence of EV.
62
634.32 Mon Dec 17 07:46:02 CET 2007
64 - majorly improved Coro::Handle's performance with Coro::EV.
65 - implemented the until now mythical Coro::BDB module.
66 - specialcase EV in Coro::AIO and Coro::BDB for extra speed.
67
684.31 Wed Dec 5 12:32:39 CET 2007
69 - remove warn statement form Coro::Util.
70
714.3 Tue Dec 4 20:33:14 CET 2007
72 - calls to the idle function could cause stack corruption
73 when the stack changed.
74 - do no longer rely on the presence of EV::DNS if EV is used
75 (because it is gone), but instead take avdantage of EV::ADNS
76 if available.
77 - add ($) prototypes to all functions in Coro::Storable.
78 - use a conventional (safer) idle callback in Coro::EV.
79 - do accept quickly in Coro::Debug to avoid endless loops.
80
814.22 Fri Nov 30 16:04:04 CET 2007
82 - really use optimised versions for Event and EV in Coro::Util
83 and Coro::Handle.
84
854.21 Sun Nov 25 10:48:59 CET 2007
86 - fix a spurious memory read.
87 - Coro::EV no longer keeps the eventloop "alive".
88
894.2 Fri Nov 9 20:47:05 CET 2007
8 - enable/disable tracing from a new coroutine, not a pooled one. 90 - enable/disable tracing from a new coroutine, not a pooled one.
9 - fix a memleak in Coro::Event. 91 - fix a memleak in Coro::Event.
10 - removed killall call from fork_eval. 92 - removed killall call from fork_eval.
11 - made sure store_fd is already loaded so that fork_eval 93 - made sure store_fd is already loaded so that fork_eval
12 does not have to parse autoload in each subprocess. 94 does not have to parse autoload in each subprocess.
95 - only use assembly method if -O switch is in $Config{optimize}.
96 - add (optional) Coro::EV module, so far the best event loop module
97 directly supported by Coro.
13 - if the event model is EV, use EV::DNS to resolve 98 - if the event model is EV, use EV::DNS to resolve
14 stuff in Coro::Util. 99 stuff in Coro::Util.
100 - don't get confused by multiple event notifications in Coro::Handle.
101 - initial support for EV (libevent interface).
102 - require Event and EV using configure_requires, to force their existance.

17 - add Coro::Storable::blocking_thaw. 105 - add Coro::Storable::blocking_thaw.
18 - use a vastly more complicated technique to localise 106 - use a vastly more complicated technique to localise
19 $SIG{__WARN/DIE__} that also works on perls <= 5.8.8. 107 $SIG{__WARN/DIE__} that also works on perls <= 5.8.8.
