8	TODO: Coro/Intro	11	5.162 Tue Jul 28 04:04:03 CEST 2009
		12	- perl 5.8.2 is now minimum requirement.
		13	- skip t/19_handle.t on broken windows perls.
		14
		15	5.161 Wed Jul 22 04:47:38 CEST 2009
		16	- Coro::AnyEvent::poll could have a different prototype when EV was
		17	used as backend (analyzed by Tatsuhiko Miyagawa).
		18	- Coro::AnyEvent errornously initialised the event loop when loaded,
		19	not on demand.
		20	- try to workaround rare */t/01_unblock.t failures.
		21
		22	5.16 Tue Jul 21 01:44:37 CEST 2009
		23	- Coro::AnyEvent failed to hook into the event loop
		24	when no threads had been readied between detecting
		25	the event loop and actually running it.
		26	- considerably speed up Coro::Select by taking avdantage
		27	of AnyEvent > 4.8 and some other optimisations.
		28	- implement paragraph readline mode in Coro::Handle
		29	(based on patches by Zsbán Ambrus).
		30	- replace WSAEINPROGRESS by WSAEWOULDBLOCK (reported
		31	and analyzed by Yasuhiro MATSUMOTO).
		32	- clarified libcoro license and copyright.
		33	- someone stole my EXTRA_META!!!
		34	- implement Coro::Select::patch_pp_sselect and it's brother,
		35	for hardcode select overriding.
		36
		37	5.151 Mon Jul 6 05:41:57 CEST 2009
		38	- backport to windows process emulation code again (patch by
		39	Yasuhiro MATSUMOTO).
		40	- slightly update Coro::MakeMaker.
		41
		42	5.15 Tue Jun 30 10:28:06 CEST 2009
		43	- deprecate Coro::Socket, document how to get ipv6 support via
		44	AnyEvent::Socket instead.
		45	- implement signal->wait ($cb) interface, similar to semaphores.
		46	- work around SvOK not supporting getmagic, so we have to getmagic
		47	to test for undef :/ (reported by Matthias Waldorf).
		48	- load Coro::AnyEvent in all modules using AnyEvent.
		49	- work around perl corrupting our internal data structures,
		50	reported by Tokuhiro Matsuno.
		51	- enable per-coroutine real and cpu time gathering
		52	(Coro::State::enable_times).
		53
		54	5.14 Wed Jun 24 01:37:48 CEST 2009
		55	- provide explicit functions to "cede" to the event loop in Coro::AnyEvent,
		56	as this seems to have been a difficult concept (poll, sleep, idle,
		57	idle_upto).
		58	- add Coro::AnyEvent::readable/writable functions.
		59	- clarify Coro::EV/Event/AnyEvent manpages.
		60	- free per-thread global scalars in the thread calling ->cancel, to
		61	avoid crashes when $_, $@ etc., are magical but some of those
		62	had already been freed.
		63	- "unexperimentalise" the callback interface for Coro::Semaphore.
		64	- speed up ready queue management/context switching by using a linked
		65	list instead of an array (~5-10%).
		66	- implement "watch" command in Coro::Debug shells.
		67	- for fun, implement time-slicing as an example in the manpage.
		68	- if AnyEvent detects EV or Event, but we don't have Coro::EV or
		69	Coro::Event, use the normal AnyEvent handling instead of dieing
		70	(the same is true for Coro::Handle).
		71	- properly document Coro::EV::timed_io_once.
		72	- avoid unneccessary ->cancel calls in Coro::Handle.
		73	- maybe make it work on mingw32 with win32 backend
		74	(based on patch by Yasuhiro Matsumoto).
		75
		76	5.132 Fri May 29 09:00:39 CEST 2009
		77	- do not keep a reference to the argument itself in
		78	Coro::Semaphore::guard, as it could change later.
		79	- support SO_RCVBUF/SO_SNDBUF nonstandard Coro::Socket options,
		80	should support a prepare callback.
		81
		82	5.131 Mon Mar 16 23:20:37 CET 2009
		83	- implement and document Coro->suspend, Coro->resume.
		84	- fix Coro::Select implementation to not (often) close
		85	the passed file descriptors (testcase provided by pippijn).
		86
		87	5.13 Mon Dec 15 21:51:42 CET 2008
		88	- EXPERIMENTAL: implement dynamic winds (on_enter/on_leave).
		89	- don't set diehook to C<undef> but instead to NULL, to avoid
		90	spurious warnings.
		91	- fix a lot of bugs in Coro::SemaphoreSet.
		92	- Coro::SemaphoreSet will less often create a semaphore needlessly.
		93	- add Coro::SemaphoreSet::count and wait methods.
		94	- take advantage of the new Guard module.
		95	- deprecate Coro::guard.
		96	- try to fix the dreaded 01_unblock tests once more. I hate it when
		97	testsuites need more fixing than the code they are supposed to test.
		98	- croak in more cases when a required callback isn't resolvable.
		99	- fix some minor issues in Coro::State->call/eval.
		100	- use current coroutine context instead of a temporary one
		101	when temporarily switching to another coroutine.
		102	- do not call C-level on_destroy handlers during global destruction,
		103	to avoid needless segfaults.
		104
		105	5.12 Sun Dec 7 13:30:38 CET 2008
		106	- add default config for MirOS, which seems to be a bug-to-bug
		107	compatible fork of openbsd ("world domination by releasing
		108	openbsd cvs before the openbsd folks do it" or so :).
		109	- free_padlist did destroy the names pad, not good, but didn't
		110	seem to bother perl - this could fix issues such as eval ""
		111	inside a function called from multiple coroutines.
		112	- use a different method to detect destruction time.
		113	- be more careful when freeing padlists just before global
		114	destruction.
		115	- fixed and expanded the call/cc example.
		116	- renamed _terminate to _coro_run.
		117	- new method Coro::Channel->shutdown.
		118	- try pthreads on openbsd <4.4 (broken sigaltstack, will
		119	pthreads fare better?).
		120	- be less picky about destroying "a" running coroutine.
		121
		122	5.11 Tue Nov 25 21:49:05 CET 2008
		123	- DEBUGGING in 5.10.0 is a mess: it constantly flags perfectly
		124	working code with failed assertions, introducing more bugs than
		125	it fixes, requiring elaborate workarounds :(
		126
		127	5.1 Mon Nov 24 08:54:59 CET 2008
		128	- wrote a small introductory tutorial - Coro::Intro.

		142	- wrap ->cancel calls in eval inside Coro::Handle as EV watchers

		144	- speed up generic anyevent methods in Coro::Handle by using rouse
		145	callbacks.
		146	- allow coroutines in $Coro::IDLE, speeding up Coro::AnyEvent and
		147	others. It also makes the debugger happier, as you can trace
		148	through the idle threads now.
		149	- add comppad_name* and hints ($^H, %^H) to per-thread variables.
		150	- eg/event was pretty broken.
