84.1 84.5
9 - fix a file leaking bug in eg/mhyttpd that would allow
10 downloading of any file (reported by oesi).
11 - fix deadlock bug in Coro::Channel (reported by Richard Hundt)
12 (also add testcase).
13 - support Broadcast option in Coro::Socket (patch by Richard Hundt,
14 apparently having loads of fun with that).
15 - implement $state->swap_defsv, ->swap_defav and document ->throw.
16
174.4 Wed Feb 13 16:44:29 CET 2008
18 - only assume .cfi pseudo isns exist on GNU/Linux.
19 - add get_timed method to Coro::Channels.
20 - fixed Coro::Debug manpage.
21 - perl 5.11 compatbility improvement based on patch by
22 Andreas König.
23
244.37 Sun Jan 20 11:25:23 CET 2008
25 - soften the check for an active parser for perl 5.10 (avoiding
26 "Coro::State::transfer called while parsing" in many cases).
27
284.36 Sun Jan 13 10:53:56 CET 2008
29 - reset diehook when terminating from an async_pool as to not
30 trigger any __DIE__ handlers.
31
324.35 Sun Jan 13 04:14:13 CET 2008
33 - "bt" debug command now displays any exceptions
34 from longmess and also skips the innermost
35 stackframes, giving more useufl output.
36 - allow backtraces in coroutines blocked in Coro::EV,
37 at a <1% speed hit.
38 - handle localising of $SIG{__WARN__} and __DIE__
39 properly (with a proper amount of dirty hacking).
40
414.34 Sat Dec 22 17:49:53 CET 2007
42 - upgrade to EV version 2.0 API.
43
444.33 Mon Dec 17 08:36:12 CET 2007
45 - make Coro::AIO etc. loadable in the absence of EV.
46
474.32 Mon Dec 17 07:46:02 CET 2007
48 - majorly improved Coro::Handle's performance with Coro::EV.
49 - implemented the until now mythical Coro::BDB module.
50 - specialcase EV in Coro::AIO and Coro::BDB for extra speed.
51
524.31 Wed Dec 5 12:32:39 CET 2007
53 - remove warn statement form Coro::Util.
54
554.3 Tue Dec 4 20:33:14 CET 2007
56 - calls to the idle function could cause stack corruption
57 when the stack changed.
58 - do no longer rely on the presence of EV::DNS if EV is used
59 (because it is gone), but instead take avdantage of EV::ADNS
60 if available.
61 - add ($) prototypes to all functions in Coro::Storable.
62 - use a conventional (safer) idle callback in Coro::EV.
63 - do accept quickly in Coro::Debug to avoid endless loops.
64
654.22 Fri Nov 30 16:04:04 CET 2007
66 - really use optimised versions for Event and EV in Coro::Util
67 and Coro::Handle.
68
694.21 Sun Nov 25 10:48:59 CET 2007
70 - fix a spurious memory read.
71 - Coro::EV no longer keeps the eventloop "alive".
72
734.2 Fri Nov 9 20:47:05 CET 2007
74 - enable/disable tracing from a new coroutine, not a pooled one.
75 - fix a memleak in Coro::Event.
76 - removed killall call from fork_eval.
77 - made sure store_fd is already loaded so that fork_eval
78 does not have to parse autoload in each subprocess.
79 - only use assembly method if -O switch is in $Config{optimize}.
80 - add (optional) Coro::EV module, so far the best event loop module
81 directly supported by Coro.
82 - if the event model is EV, use EV::DNS to resolve
83 stuff in Coro::Util.
84 - don't get confused by multiple event notifications in Coro::Handle.
85 - initial support for EV (libevent interface).
86 - require Event and EV using configure_requires, to force their existance.
87
884.13 Wed Oct 24 07:26:45 CEST 2007
89 - add Coro::Storable::blocking_thaw.
90 - use a vastly more complicated technique to localise
91 $SIG{__WARN/DIE__} that also works on perls <= 5.8.8.
92 - use a coroutine for the idle callback Coro::Event,
93 instead of running Event in the current coroutine context.
94 This also catches recursive invocations.
95 - actually report fork errors in gethostbyname and inet_aton.
96
974.11 Thu Oct 11 02:40:24 CEST 2007
98 - port to threaded perls.
99
1004.1 Thu Oct 11 02:38:16 CEST 2007
9 - incompatible change: $SIG{__DIE__} and $SIG{__WARN__} will now 101 - incompatible change: $SIG{__DIE__} and $SIG{__WARN__} will now
10 be local to each coro (see Coro::State). 102 be local to each coro (see Coro::State).
103 - incompatible change: for very deep reasons, cede and cede_notself
104 cannot return anything, so nothing will be returned.
11 - possibly bring back 5.10 compatibility (untested). 105 - possibly bring back 5.10 compatibility (untested).
12 - work around stupid (and wrong) warning on 5.10 :(. 106 - work around stupid (and wrong) warning on 5.10 :(.
13 - overlay the saved state over the context stack. This saves 107 - overlay the saved state over the context stack. This saves
14 a few hundred bytes per coroutine on average and also 108 a few hundred bytes per coroutine on average and also
15 speeds up context switching a bit. 109 speeds up context switching a bit.
18 - Coro::Storable::blocking_* did not properly lock 112 - Coro::Storable::blocking_* did not properly lock
19 resulting in races between coroutines. 113 resulting in races between coroutines.
20 - added Coro::Storable::guard. 114 - added Coro::Storable::guard.
21 - stopping to trace a coroutine could destroy the cctx of 115 - stopping to trace a coroutine could destroy the cctx of
22 an unrelated coroutine. 116 an unrelated coroutine.
117 - explain the relationship between Perl and C coroutines in
118 more detail in Coro::State.
119 - Coro::Util::inet_aton did not short-circuit dotted quad forms,
120 causing a fork per resolve. This also affected Coro::Socket.
121 - switch to a separate stack in $coro->call/eval to avoid
122 invalidating pointers.
