8 TODO: Coro::AnyEvent 84.748
9 - implement, but do not document, PerlIO::cede(granularity).
10 - Coro::Storable forgot to wrap Storable::pstore.
11 - work around the multitude of leaks and memory corruption
12 bugs in PerlIO::via by using our own C-level perliol.
13
144.747 Tue Sep 23 01:59:41 CEST 2008
15 - fix a per-cv memleak (one empty array was leaked per
16 code reference).
17 - avoid a crash in coro->call|rss when the coroutine was already
18 destroyed (most noticably when using Coro::Debug::ps :)
19 - also protect *Storable::FILE.
20 - push up default storable granularity to 20ms.
21
224.746 Sun Sep 21 03:22:20 CEST 2008
23 - be more insistent on locking Storable against reentrancy
24 in Coro::Storable.
25 - move swap_def?v and throw to Coro::State, as documented.
26
274.745 Thu Jul 24 00:14:38 CEST 2008
28 - remove debugging code related to MgPV_nolen_const, also try to
29 make it compile with perl 5.8.6 (yes, apple apparently loves
30 outdated software). Reported by John S.
31
324.744 Tue Jul 8 22:06:35 CEST 2008
33 - correctly provide default DIE/WARN handlers as documented.
34 - also overwrite PL_vtbl_sigelem.svt_clear, even though current
35 implementations inside perl work fine for us.
36
374.743 Mon Jun 16 00:21:57 CEST 2008
38 - when using Coro::EV without running EV::loop it could
39 result in busy-waiting for events, this has been fixed.
40 - reduce codesize and improve performance by using EV_DEFAULT_UC.
41
424.742 Sat May 31 14:10:21 CEST 2008
43 - implement a workaround for (some) perl <5.8.8 versions.
44 - require EV 3.3+.
45
464.741 Fri May 30 23:33:09 CEST 2008
47 - tell netbsd how utterly broken their imitation of an OS is
48 and refuse to build by default if pthreads are in use.
49 - switch to "s" method on all bsd's by default, as their ucontext
50 stuff seems just too broken.
51 - fix a bug in Coro::Select.
52
534.74 Thu May 29 20:05:31 CEST 2008
54 - do not test Coro::LWP for lack of dependencies.
55 - do not test Coro::Select for lack of working perls.
56
574.73 Thu May 29 2008
58 - fix a bug in Coro::EV which would cause it to block despite
59 there being runnable coroutines.
60 - sprinkle "no warnings" freely over everything, also suppress
61 warnings for some other modules.
62 - fix typo in WSAEWOULDBLOCK.
63
644.72 Sun May 25 05:14:36 CEST 2008
65 - tweak META.yaml a bit, unfortunately, there is no documented way
66 to have optional dependencies with CPAN. doh :(
67 - avoid running some tests on windows because they would fail due to
68 perl bug (broken fork, broken pipes...).
69 - work around perl on windows bugs where perl returns undocumented
70 error codes for sysread, syswrite etc. by taking advantage
71 of AnyEvent's workaround for that problem.
72 - use AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking in Coro::Handle to work around
73 a common perl implementation bug on windows.
74 - use unix domain sockets in testsuite to work around
75 common perl implementation bugs on widows (they are emulated by
76 tcp sockets on windows. ugh.)
77
784.71 Sat May 24 20:01:27 CEST 2008
79 - fix a bug in Coro::AnyEvent ("Usage: Coro::AnyEvent::_schedule()").
80 - take advantage of async name resolution of AnyEvent::Util.
81 - work around brutal inet_aton override in Coro::LWP.
82 - take advantage of the readyhook in Coro::EV, for smoother
83 scheduling.
84

12 - document find_coro in Coro::Debug. 89 - document find_coro in Coro::Debug.
90 - incompatible change: rename has_stack to has_cctx.
91 - Coro::AIO and Coro::BDB no longer force event model detection,
92 use AnyEvent::AIO and AnyEvent::BDB.
