9 - grr, instead of compiling the recent changes on 5.10 only they
10 were compiled on 5.8 only.
11
124.48 Sun Apr 6 20:36:46 CEST 2008
13 - allow coroutine switches during eval's under 5.10.x, as it seems
14 the parser is a per-interpreter option now, so this is safe
15 (this might fix the odd crashing bug).
16 - drop support for 5.9.x versions: they are dead, jim.
17
184.47 Sun Apr 6 00:37:52 CEST 2008
19 - force cctx allocation on API calls: we know we need to force one
20 and gcc actually manages to confuse our heuristic nowadays,
21 leading to crashes and worse.
22 - document force_cctx.
23
244.46 Fri Apr 4 22:05:43 CEST 2008
25 - upgrade libcoro, resulting in pthread-backend (which was only created
26 to fulfill the rules of the programming languages shootout).
27
284.45 Thu Mar 13 11:55:36 CET 2008
29 - fix a file leaking bug in eg/mhyttpd that would allow
30 downloading of any file (reported by oesi).
31 - fix deadlock bug in Coro::Channel (reported by Richard Hundt)
32 (also add testcase).
33 - support Broadcast option in Coro::Socket (patch by Richard Hundt,
34 apparently having loads of fun with that).
35 - implement $state->swap_defsv, ->swap_defav and document ->throw.
36
374.4 Wed Feb 13 16:44:29 CET 2008
38 - only assume .cfi pseudo isns exist on GNU/Linux.
39 - add get_timed method to Coro::Channels.
40 - fixed Coro::Debug manpage.
41 - perl 5.11 compatbility improvement based on patch by
42 Andreas König.
43
444.37 Sun Jan 20 11:25:23 CET 2008
45 - soften the check for an active parser for perl 5.10 (avoiding
46 "Coro::State::transfer called while parsing" in many cases).
47
484.36 Sun Jan 13 10:53:56 CET 2008
49 - reset diehook when terminating from an async_pool as to not
50 trigger any __DIE__ handlers.
51
524.35 Sun Jan 13 04:14:13 CET 2008
53 - "bt" debug command now displays any exceptions
54 from longmess and also skips the innermost
55 stackframes, giving more useufl output.
56 - allow backtraces in coroutines blocked in Coro::EV,
57 at a <1% speed hit.
58 - handle localising of $SIG{__WARN__} and __DIE__
59 properly (with a proper amount of dirty hacking).
60
614.34 Sat Dec 22 17:49:53 CET 2007
62 - upgrade to EV version 2.0 API.
63
644.33 Mon Dec 17 08:36:12 CET 2007
65 - make Coro::AIO etc. loadable in the absence of EV.
66
674.32 Mon Dec 17 07:46:02 CET 2007
68 - majorly improved Coro::Handle's performance with Coro::EV.
69 - implemented the until now mythical Coro::BDB module.
70 - specialcase EV in Coro::AIO and Coro::BDB for extra speed.
71
724.31 Wed Dec 5 12:32:39 CET 2007
73 - remove warn statement form Coro::Util.
74
754.3 Tue Dec 4 20:33:14 CET 2007
76 - calls to the idle function could cause stack corruption
77 when the stack changed.
78 - do no longer rely on the presence of EV::DNS if EV is used
79 (because it is gone), but instead take avdantage of EV::ADNS
80 if available.
81 - add ($) prototypes to all functions in Coro::Storable.
82 - use a conventional (safer) idle callback in Coro::EV.
83 - do accept quickly in Coro::Debug to avoid endless loops.
84
854.22 Fri Nov 30 16:04:04 CET 2007
86 - really use optimised versions for Event and EV in Coro::Util
87 and Coro::Handle.
88
894.21 Sun Nov 25 10:48:59 CET 2007
90 - fix a spurious memory read.
91 - Coro::EV no longer keeps the eventloop "alive".
92
934.2 Fri Nov 9 20:47:05 CET 2007
94 - enable/disable tracing from a new coroutine, not a pooled one.
95 - fix a memleak in Coro::Event.
96 - removed killall call from fork_eval.
97 - made sure store_fd is already loaded so that fork_eval
98 does not have to parse autoload in each subprocess.
99 - only use assembly method if -O switch is in $Config{optimize}.
100 - add (optional) Coro::EV module, so far the best event loop module
101 directly supported by Coro.
102 - if the event model is EV, use EV::DNS to resolve
103 stuff in Coro::Util.
104 - don't get confused by multiple event notifications in Coro::Handle.
105 - initial support for EV (libevent interface).
106 - require Event and EV using configure_requires, to force their existance.
107
1084.13 Wed Oct 24 07:26:45 CEST 2007
9 - add Coro::Storable::blocking_thaw. 109 - add Coro::Storable::blocking_thaw.
10 - use a vastly more complicated technique to localise 110 - use a vastly more complicated technique to localise
11 $SIG{__WARN/DIE__} that also works on perls <= 5.8.8. 111 $SIG{__WARN/DIE__} that also works on perls <= 5.8.8.
12 - use a coroutine for the idle callback Coro::Event, 112 - use a coroutine for the idle callback Coro::Event,
13 instead of running Event in the current coroutine context. 113 instead of running Event in the current coroutine context.
14 This also catches recursive invocations. 114 This also catches recursive invocations.
115 - actually report fork errors in gethostbyname and inet_aton.

17 - port to threaded perls. 118 - port to threaded perls.
