10 - port to the EV 4.0 API.
11 - work around bugs in mingw32, making strawberry perl work
12 out of the box.
13 - correctly modify Coro::AIO function prototypes
14 so that they reflect the "no optional parameters" rule.
15 - "ported" libcoro to C++.
16
175.23 Mon May 17 18:50:42 CEST 2010
18 - be more resistant to ordering changes when initialising
19 Coro::AnyEvent, Coro::EV and Coro::Event (reported by Matthias
20 Waldorf).
21 - document that perl 5.12 deliberately removed support for cloning.
22
235.22 Wed Apr 14 03:55:35 CEST 2010
24 - correctly return udnef on errors in Coro::Handle::read/write
25 (testcase by Marc Mims).
26 - convert Coro::Util into a "perl compatibility wrapper" - the functions
27 are less useful now, but are drop-in replacements for existing
28 functions, listing better alternatives in the documentation. This also
29 fixes a bug in Coro::LWP which naively substituted Socket::inet_aton
30 with Coro::Util::inet_aton.
31 - do not override $Coro::idle unconditionally in Coro.pm, as other
32 modules could have provided their own idle coro already
33 (for exmaple, Coro::AnyEvent).
34 - fix Coro::Util::gethost* functions.
35 - Coro::Timer corretcly exports it's symbols (reported by Hideki Yamamura).
36
375.21 Wed Dec 16 07:19:51 CET 2009
38 - automatically load Coro::AnyEvent when AnyEvent and Coro are used
39 together.
40 - add some examples on how to combine other event loops with Coro in
41 Coro::AnyEvent, and how to run it (and not to block). Seems to be
42 the most common source of confusion.
43 - try to catch people naively blocking in an event callback.
44 - work around the perl filehandle bug issue in conjunction with
45 older common::sense (as indirectly pointed out by ZSystem).
46 - clarify the "not from signal handlers" section.
47
485.2 Sun Oct 4 14:54:24 CEST 2009
49 - Coro::Storable destroyed the prototypes of the functions it wrapped.
50 - export rouse_cb and rouse_wait by default now.
51 - fix various prototype mismatches in Coro::AnyEvent and Coro::Handle.
52 - new method $state->swap_sv.
53 - added section on "windows process emulation" to the manpage,
54 after a not-so-fruitful (nor-friendly) "discussion" with chip
55 salzenberg (discussion implies arguments, but his only arguments
56 were ad-hominems, one wonders why he started it in the first
57 place). I hope this explains it well enough for him to understand,
58 and maybe well enough for others to understand.
59 - use common::sense everywhere now.
60 - idle callbacks are no longer supported, use idle coros instead.
61 - print a thread listing when a deadlock is detected.
