5 actor model (which is cool in a lot of important aspects (failures!),

8 - add a big "Coro thread life cycle" section to "man Coro".
9 - try a tentative workaround against the breakage that 5.13 has
10 introduced without depreciation period. sigh.
11 - no longer use Time::HiRes if gettimeofday is available, which
12 saves quite a lot of memory.
13
145.36 Sun Feb 13 05:33:41 CET 2011
15 - automatically load Coro::Channel, Coro::RWLock, Coro::Semaphore,
16 Coro::SemaphoreSet, Coro::Signal and Coro::Specific on first "new"
17 method call.
18 - undocument Coro::Timer::sleep and obsolete whole module.
19 - optimise Coro::Timer::timeout memory and cpu usage.
20 - slightly updated Coro::Intro for recent changes.
21 - do not initialise PL_dirty anymore.
22
235.25 Thu Nov 11 01:08:39 CET 2010
24 - try a different approach on netbsd - netbsd 5 finally has marginally
25 working pthreads, but still broken ucontext/sigaltstack.
26 - openbsd 4.8 finally got their act together, Coro works out of the box
27 with asm, setjmp and pthreads (no change, just informational).
28
295.24 Sat Oct 23 11:27:12 CEST 2010
30 - port to the EV 4.0 API.
31 - work around bugs in mingw32, making strawberry perl work
32 out of the box.
33 - correctly modify Coro::AIO function prototypes
34 so that they reflect the "no optional parameters" rule.
35 - "ported" libcoro to C++.
36
375.23 Mon May 17 18:50:42 CEST 2010
38 - be more resistant to ordering changes when initialising
39 Coro::AnyEvent, Coro::EV and Coro::Event (reported by Matthias
40 Waldorf).
41 - document that perl 5.12 deliberately removed support for cloning.
42
435.22 Wed Apr 14 03:55:35 CEST 2010
44 - correctly return udnef on errors in Coro::Handle::read/write
45 (testcase by Marc Mims).
46 - convert Coro::Util into a "perl compatibility wrapper" - the functions
47 are less useful now, but are drop-in replacements for existing
48 functions, listing better alternatives in the documentation. This also
49 fixes a bug in Coro::LWP which naively substituted Socket::inet_aton
50 with Coro::Util::inet_aton.
51 - do not override $Coro::idle unconditionally in Coro.pm, as other
52 modules could have provided their own idle coro already
53 (for exmaple, Coro::AnyEvent).
54 - fix Coro::Util::gethost* functions.
55 - Coro::Timer corretcly exports it's symbols (reported by Hideki Yamamura).
56
575.21 Wed Dec 16 07:19:51 CET 2009
58 - automatically load Coro::AnyEvent when AnyEvent and Coro are used
59 together.
60 - add some examples on how to combine other event loops with Coro in
61 Coro::AnyEvent, and how to run it (and not to block). Seems to be
62 the most common source of confusion.
63 - try to catch people naively blocking in an event callback.
64 - work around the perl filehandle bug issue in conjunction with
65 older common::sense (as indirectly pointed out by ZSystem).
66 - clarify the "not from signal handlers" section.
67
685.2 Sun Oct 4 14:54:24 CEST 2009
12 - Coro::Storable destroyed the prototypes of the functions it wrapped. 69 - Coro::Storable destroyed the prototypes of the functions it wrapped.
13 - export rouse_cb and rouse_wait by default now. 70 - export rouse_cb and rouse_wait by default now.
14 - fix various prototype mismatches in Coro::AnyEvent and Coro::Handle. 71 - fix various prototype mismatches in Coro::AnyEvent and Coro::Handle.
15 - new method $state->swap_sv. 72 - new method $state->swap_sv.
16 - added section on "windows process emulation" to the manpage, 73 - added section on "windows process emulation" to the manpage,
