8 TODO: AnyEvent provide detetc hook 84.8
9 TODO: Coro::AnyEvent 9 - new function Coro::AIO::aio_wait.
10 - Coro.:AIO and Coro::BDB now "use Coro::AnyEvent".
11 - greatly speed up and reduce memory usage of Coro::AIO requests.

134.749 Mon Sep 29 14:40:12 CEST 2008
14 - port to slow and broken pseudo-threaded perls. (courtesy pippijn).
15
164.748 Sat Sep 27 14:03:19 CEST 2008
17 - implement, but do not document, PerlIO::cede(granularity).
18 - Coro::Storable forgot to wrap Storable::pstore.
19 - work around the multitude of leaks and memory corruption
20 bugs in PerlIO::via by using our own C-level perliol. As a side
21 effect, Coro::Storable is now much, much, much faster.
22
234.747 Tue Sep 23 01:59:41 CEST 2008
24 - fix a per-cv memleak (one empty array was leaked per
25 code reference).
26 - avoid a crash in coro->call|rss when the coroutine was already
27 destroyed (most noticably when using Coro::Debug::ps :)
28 - also protect *Storable::FILE.
29 - push up default storable granularity to 20ms.
30
314.746 Sun Sep 21 03:22:20 CEST 2008
32 - be more insistent on locking Storable against reentrancy
33 in Coro::Storable.
34 - move swap_def?v and throw to Coro::State, as documented.
35
364.745 Thu Jul 24 00:14:38 CEST 2008
37 - remove debugging code related to MgPV_nolen_const, also try to
38 make it compile with perl 5.8.6 (yes, apple apparently loves
39 outdated software). Reported by John S.
40
414.744 Tue Jul 8 22:06:35 CEST 2008
42 - correctly provide default DIE/WARN handlers as documented.
43 - also overwrite PL_vtbl_sigelem.svt_clear, even though current
44 implementations inside perl work fine for us.
45
464.743 Mon Jun 16 00:21:57 CEST 2008
47 - when using Coro::EV without running EV::loop it could
48 result in busy-waiting for events, this has been fixed.
49 - reduce codesize and improve performance by using EV_DEFAULT_UC.
50
514.742 Sat May 31 14:10:21 CEST 2008
52 - implement a workaround for (some) perl <5.8.8 versions.
53 - require EV 3.3+.
54
554.741 Fri May 30 23:33:09 CEST 2008
56 - tell netbsd how utterly broken their imitation of an OS is
57 and refuse to build by default if pthreads are in use.
58 - switch to "s" method on all bsd's by default, as their ucontext
59 stuff seems just too broken.
60 - fix a bug in Coro::Select.
61
624.74 Thu May 29 20:05:31 CEST 2008
63 - do not test Coro::LWP for lack of dependencies.
64 - do not test Coro::Select for lack of working perls.
65
664.73 Thu May 29 2008
67 - fix a bug in Coro::EV which would cause it to block despite
68 there being runnable coroutines.
69 - sprinkle "no warnings" freely over everything, also suppress
70 warnings for some other modules.
71 - fix typo in WSAEWOULDBLOCK.
72
734.72 Sun May 25 05:14:36 CEST 2008
74 - tweak META.yaml a bit, unfortunately, there is no documented way
75 to have optional dependencies with CPAN. doh :(
76 - avoid running some tests on windows because they would fail due to
77 perl bug (broken fork, broken pipes...).
78 - work around perl on windows bugs where perl returns undocumented
79 error codes for sysread, syswrite etc. by taking advantage
80 of AnyEvent's workaround for that problem.
81 - use AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking in Coro::Handle to work around
82 a common perl implementation bug on windows.
83 - use unix domain sockets in testsuite to work around
84 common perl implementation bugs on widows (they are emulated by
85 tcp sockets on windows. ugh.)
86
874.71 Sat May 24 20:01:27 CEST 2008
88 - fix a bug in Coro::AnyEvent ("Usage: Coro::AnyEvent::_schedule()").
89 - take advantage of async name resolution of AnyEvent::Util.
90 - work around brutal inet_aton override in Coro::LWP.
91 - take advantage of the readyhook in Coro::EV, for smoother
92 scheduling.

10 - completely reworked the Coro manpage. 95 - completely reworked the Coro manpage.
11 - added Coro::AnyEvent, generic event loop integration. 96 - added Coro::AnyEvent, generic event loop integration.
12 - implement cancel, ready and kill commands in Coro::Debug. 97 - implement cancel, ready and kill commands in Coro::Debug.
13 - document find_coro in Coro::Debug. 98 - document find_coro in Coro::Debug.
14 - incompatible change: rename has_stack to has_cctx. 99 - incompatible change: rename has_stack to has_cctx.
15 - Coro::AIO and Coro::BDB no longer force event model detection. 100 - Coro::AIO and Coro::BDB no longer force event model detection,
101 use AnyEvent::AIO and AnyEvent::BDB.

19 by the Coro module. It was a mistake to have it in the first place. 105 by the Coro module. It was a mistake to have it in the first place.
