2 2
30.49 31.3 Sat Aug 20 03:08:56 CEST 2005
4 - improve Coro::State docs, remove reference to nonexisting
5 Coro::State::flush method.
6 - no longer autodetect windows, present it as an option instead.
7
81.2 Mon May 16 02:00:55 CEST 2005
9 - included libcoro.c earlier in State.xs, might improve portability.
10 - use a faster and possibly more stable Coro::Cont implementation.
11 - accept x86_64 in addition to amd64 for optimized linux-amd64 support.
12 - fix bugs Coro::SemaphoreSet that could cause locks never to be freed.
13 - fix bugs in CoroAPI.h and document it in Coro::MakeMaker.
14
151.11 Thu Mar 3 18:00:52 CET 2005
16 - change of contact address.
17
181.1 Tue Feb 22 20:51:16 CET 2005
19 - support [l]inux method on amd64.
20 - make some context switches while compiling/eval'ing work.
21
221.0 Tue Aug 10 03:47:27 CEST 2004
23 - Event 0.89 fixes the bug again.
24 - fix the remaining(??) memleak. I didn't free the cache-AV for
25 padlists, so one AV per created anon-sub leaked.
26
270.97 Fri May 14 15:23:32 CEST 2004
28 - remove stupid gcc extension that was an experiment only anyway.
29
300.96 Thu May 13 18:09:29 CEST 2004
31 - tell people if they have yet another broken Event variant.
32 - made Coro to work _better_ with threads (it seems that, as long
33 as you use Coros in one thread only everything will work fine.
34 Looking at the perl source the problem might be missing locking
35 between Coro and some perl internal routines. That's not easily
36 fixable).
37 - (hopefully) got rid of the static xnext inside transfer.
38
390.95 Sun Feb 15 03:20:28 CET 2004
40 - removed Coro::State::flush, implemented a new and much
41 faster caching mechanism by attaching magic to the CV.
42 - a memleak with (real) closures remains.
43 - dramatically reduced size of stacks to 65536 (linux/x86), after
44 observing that even myhttpd never had more than a kilobyte
45 of stack in use (stack is still only physically allocated in
46 pagesize increments for systems suporting mmap).
47 - fix for a "cygwin-64" architecture added, proposed by Stefan Traby.
48 - fix for threaded perl.
49
500.9 Sun Nov 23 04:32:39 CET 2003
51 - fix a few very hard to track down but (of course) stupid
52 memory leaks.
53 - stringify version number to avoid locale problems :(.
54 - perl 5.9.0 does not have SvPADBUSY, reported by Scott Walters,
55 hopefully ignoring it "just works".
56
570.8 Wed Nov 5 19:38:40 CET 2003
58 - port to perl5.005_03, but only 5.8.x+ is supported!
59 - honor LocalAddr even without LocalPort in Coro::Socket.
60
610.7 Tue May 27 03:12:38 CEST 2003
62 - the version jump indicates some level of testing, not gobs
63 of new features.
64 - uh... I found the prompt function in ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
65 Highly correct stuff, that is...
66 - fixed(?) a bug with die's in coroutines causing "panic: top_env".
67 the fix is not well understood by the author, so beware :(.
68
690.652 Thu May 8 02:54:46 CEST 2003
70 - Applied patch by Slaven Rezic to set default to "s" on FreeBSD,
71 cause version 4 doesn't have ucontext.
72 - Benjamin Reed reported that setjmp works fine on darwin,
73 so preselect it.
74
750.651 Sat Mar 29 15:00:23 CET 2003
76 - fix a bug in Coro::Handle where some bytes could get lost
77 on reading, reported by jason@nichego.net.
78
790.65 Sun Mar 23 00:08:26 CET 2003
80 - added a README.linux-glibc.
81 - new module Coro::Select.
82 - also save/restore PL_comppad, fixes segfaults with 5.8.1.
83 (I never claimed that I know what I am doing ;).
84 - set default to setjmp/longjmp on non-x86-linux.
85
860.6 Thu Nov 21 11:09:06 CET 2002
87 - made lazy context switching the default.
88 - fixed the bug where SemaphoreSet::guard
89 was the same as timed_guard and timed_guard was missing.
90 - fix a memleak in Coro::Timer.
91 - reclassified context sharing as not experimental.
92
930.534 Sun Apr 14 03:05:12 CEST 2002
94 - fixed backspace => tab in header parsing (myhttpd).
95 - added eg/readline, for elmex.
96 - Coro::Event now calls ->start on first call instead of
97 ->again, which created wrong timeouts for the first ->next.
98 - fixed a bug where Coro::Socket returned a closed socket instead
99 of nothing on ECONNREFUSED and similar error conditions.
100
1010.533 Mon Feb 18 18:49:40 CET 2002
102 - adapt to finally working Event-0.85.
103 - fixed buggy event initialization (trapped under windows, but how
104 could it possibly have worked anywhere?)
105
1060.532 Wed Jan 16 02:45:32 CET 2002
107 - removed the reference to pp_entersub, might work on
108 (some) win32 perls now (testsuite works under cygwin,
109 without Event, which freezes).
110
1110.531 Mon Dec 10 22:18:44 CET 2001
112 - Fixed a bug in SemaphoreSet::timed_down.
113
1140.53 Tue Nov 27 21:11:13 CET 2001
115 - some tests for Event.
116 - slightly different internal architecture to get refcnt into the object
117 and not the reference. might fix a few bugs, certainly did introduce
118 new ones.
119 - Coro::Timer (independent of Event).
120 - new timed_wait functions for Coro::Signal, Semaphore, SemaphoreSet.
121
1220.52 Tue Nov 6 21:36:18 CET 2001
123 - ported to cygwin (trivial).
124 patch by Gerrit P. Haase <gp@familiehaase.de>.
125 - small setjmp code fix by Sullivan.DanielJ@epamail.epa.gov.
126
1270.51 Thu Nov 1 20:39:01 CET 2001
128 - terminate/cancel now work properly (otherwise termination
129 could cause a "next coroutine is not and contains not..."
130 error.
131 - added Coro::Socket::shutdown.
132 - Coro::Event::loop no is the same as Event::loop.
133 - implemented terminate with args + join.
134
1350.5 Fri Sep 28 16:15:35 CEST 2001
136 - fixed "print" on a Coro::Handle. The print method worked.
137 - small tweaks (seem to reduce memory consumption a lot)
138 in various modules.
139 - splendid use of "no warnings" scattered throughout.
140 - added Coro::Handle::rbuf, fixed Coro::Handle::fh.
141
1420.49 Sun Sep 16 02:42:45 CEST 2001
4 - changed some method calls to function calls for speed 143 - changed some method calls to function calls for speed

6 - make Coro::Handle use an array instead of a hash for 145 - make Coro::Handle use an array instead of a hash for
7 speed reasons. 146 speed reasons.
8 - IRIX mystery solved: it's SGI's NT, after all: "standard, huh?". 147 - IRIX mystery solved: it's SGI's NT, after all: "standard, huh?".
