9 - calls to the idle function could cause stack corruption
10 when the stack changed.
11 - do no longer rely on the presence of EV::DNS if EV is used
12 (because it is gone), but instead take avdantage of EV::ADNS
13 if available.
14 - add ($) prototypes to all functions in Coro::Storable.
15 - use a conventional (safer) idle callback in Coro::EV.
16 - do accept quickly in Coro::Debug to avoid endless loops.
17
184.22 Fri Nov 30 16:04:04 CET 2007
19 - really use optimised versions for Event and EV in Coro::Util
20 and Coro::Handle.
21
224.21 Sun Nov 25 10:48:59 CET 2007
23 - fix a spurious memory read.
24 - Coro::EV no longer keeps the eventloop "alive".
25
264.2 Fri Nov 9 20:47:05 CET 2007
27 - enable/disable tracing from a new coroutine, not a pooled one.
28 - fix a memleak in Coro::Event.
29 - removed killall call from fork_eval.
30 - made sure store_fd is already loaded so that fork_eval
31 does not have to parse autoload in each subprocess.
32 - only use assembly method if -O switch is in $Config{optimize}.
33 - add (optional) Coro::EV module, so far the best event loop module
34 directly supported by Coro.
35 - if the event model is EV, use EV::DNS to resolve
36 stuff in Coro::Util.
37 - don't get confused by multiple event notifications in Coro::Handle.
38 - initial support for EV (libevent interface).
39 - require Event and EV using configure_requires, to force their existance.

414.13 Wed Oct 24 07:26:45 CEST 2007
42 - add Coro::Storable::blocking_thaw.
43 - use a vastly more complicated technique to localise
44 $SIG{__WARN/DIE__} that also works on perls <= 5.8.8.
45 - use a coroutine for the idle callback Coro::Event,
46 instead of running Event in the current coroutine context.
47 This also catches recursive invocations.
48 - actually report fork errors in gethostbyname and inet_aton.

504.11 Thu Oct 11 02:40:24 CEST 2007
51 - port to threaded perls.
52
534.1 Thu Oct 11 02:38:16 CEST 2007
9 - incompatible change: $SIG{__DIE__} and $SIG{__WARN__} will now 54 - incompatible change: $SIG{__DIE__} and $SIG{__WARN__} will now
10 be local to each coro (see Coro::State). 55 be local to each coro (see Coro::State).
56 - incompatible change: for very deep reasons, cede and cede_notself
57 cannot return anything, so nothing will be returned.
11 - possibly bring back 5.10 compatibility (untested). 58 - possibly bring back 5.10 compatibility (untested).
12 - work around stupid (and wrong) warning on 5.10 :(. 59 - work around stupid (and wrong) warning on 5.10 :(.
13 - overlay the saved state over the context stack. This saves 60 - overlay the saved state over the context stack. This saves
14 a few hundred bytes per coroutine on average and also 61 a few hundred bytes per coroutine on average and also
15 speeds up context switching a bit. 62 speeds up context switching a bit.
22 an unrelated coroutine. 69 an unrelated coroutine.
23 - explain the relationship between Perl and C coroutines in 70 - explain the relationship between Perl and C coroutines in
24 more detail in Coro::State. 71 more detail in Coro::State.
25 - Coro::Util::inet_aton did not short-circuit dotted quad forms, 72 - Coro::Util::inet_aton did not short-circuit dotted quad forms,
26 causing a fork per resolve. This also affected Coro::Socket. 73 causing a fork per resolve. This also affected Coro::Socket.
27 - sped up Coro::Event next event handling by 15%, uses less memory.
28 - switch to a separate stack in $coro->call/eval to avoid 74 - switch to a separate stack in $coro->call/eval to avoid
29 invalidating pointers. 75 invalidating pointers.
