84.1 84.36 Sun Jan 13 10:53:56 CET 2008
9 - reset diehook when terminating from an async_pool as to not
10 trigger any __DIE__ handlers.
11
124.35 Sun Jan 13 04:14:13 CET 2008
13 - "bt" debug command now displays any exceptions
14 from longmess and also skips the innermost
15 stackframes, giving more useufl output.
16 - allow backtraces in coroutines blocked in Coro::EV,
17 at a <1% speed hit.
18 - handle localising of $SIG{__WARN__} and __DIE__
19 properly (with a proper amount of dirty hacking).
20
214.34 Sat Dec 22 17:49:53 CET 2007
22 - upgrade to EV version 2.0 API.
23
244.33 Mon Dec 17 08:36:12 CET 2007
25 - make Coro::AIO etc. loadable in the absence of EV.
26
274.32 Mon Dec 17 07:46:02 CET 2007
28 - majorly improved Coro::Handle's performance with Coro::EV.
29 - implemented the until now mythical Coro::BDB module.
30 - specialcase EV in Coro::AIO and Coro::BDB for extra speed.
31
324.31 Wed Dec 5 12:32:39 CET 2007
33 - remove warn statement form Coro::Util.
34
354.3 Tue Dec 4 20:33:14 CET 2007
36 - calls to the idle function could cause stack corruption
37 when the stack changed.
38 - do no longer rely on the presence of EV::DNS if EV is used
39 (because it is gone), but instead take avdantage of EV::ADNS
40 if available.
41 - add ($) prototypes to all functions in Coro::Storable.
42 - use a conventional (safer) idle callback in Coro::EV.
43 - do accept quickly in Coro::Debug to avoid endless loops.
44
454.22 Fri Nov 30 16:04:04 CET 2007
46 - really use optimised versions for Event and EV in Coro::Util
47 and Coro::Handle.
48
494.21 Sun Nov 25 10:48:59 CET 2007
50 - fix a spurious memory read.
51 - Coro::EV no longer keeps the eventloop "alive".
52
534.2 Fri Nov 9 20:47:05 CET 2007
54 - enable/disable tracing from a new coroutine, not a pooled one.
55 - fix a memleak in Coro::Event.
56 - removed killall call from fork_eval.
57 - made sure store_fd is already loaded so that fork_eval
58 does not have to parse autoload in each subprocess.
59 - only use assembly method if -O switch is in $Config{optimize}.
60 - add (optional) Coro::EV module, so far the best event loop module
61 directly supported by Coro.
62 - if the event model is EV, use EV::DNS to resolve
63 stuff in Coro::Util.
64 - don't get confused by multiple event notifications in Coro::Handle.
65 - initial support for EV (libevent interface).
66 - require Event and EV using configure_requires, to force their existance.
67
684.13 Wed Oct 24 07:26:45 CEST 2007
69 - add Coro::Storable::blocking_thaw.
70 - use a vastly more complicated technique to localise
71 $SIG{__WARN/DIE__} that also works on perls <= 5.8.8.
72 - use a coroutine for the idle callback Coro::Event,
73 instead of running Event in the current coroutine context.
74 This also catches recursive invocations.
75 - actually report fork errors in gethostbyname and inet_aton.
76
774.11 Thu Oct 11 02:40:24 CEST 2007
78 - port to threaded perls.
79
804.1 Thu Oct 11 02:38:16 CEST 2007
9 - incompatible change: $SIG{__DIE__} and $SIG{__WARN__} will now 81 - incompatible change: $SIG{__DIE__} and $SIG{__WARN__} will now
10 be local to each coro (see Coro::State). 82 be local to each coro (see Coro::State).
83 - incompatible change: for very deep reasons, cede and cede_notself
84 cannot return anything, so nothing will be returned.
11 - possibly bring back 5.10 compatibility (untested). 85 - possibly bring back 5.10 compatibility (untested).
12 - work around stupid (and wrong) warning on 5.10 :(. 86 - work around stupid (and wrong) warning on 5.10 :(.
13 - overlay the saved state over the context stack. This saves 87 - overlay the saved state over the context stack. This saves
14 a few hundred bytes per coroutine on average and also 88 a few hundred bytes per coroutine on average and also
15 speeds up context switching a bit. 89 speeds up context switching a bit.
22 an unrelated coroutine. 96 an unrelated coroutine.
23 - explain the relationship between Perl and C coroutines in 97 - explain the relationship between Perl and C coroutines in
24 more detail in Coro::State. 98 more detail in Coro::State.
25 - Coro::Util::inet_aton did not short-circuit dotted quad forms, 99 - Coro::Util::inet_aton did not short-circuit dotted quad forms,
26 causing a fork per resolve. This also affected Coro::Socket. 100 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 101 - switch to a separate stack in $coro->call/eval to avoid
29 invalidating pointers. 102 invalidating pointers.

314.03 Sat Oct 6 21:24:00 CEST 2007 1044.03 Sat Oct 6 21:24:00 CEST 2007
32 - added Coro::throw method. 105 - added Coro::throw method.
