7 - croak when a coro being cancelled tries to block (e.g. while executing
8 a guard block).
9 - implement Coro->cancel in XS for a 20% speed improvement, and to
10 be able to implement mutual cancellation.
11 - cancelling a coro while it itself is cancelling another coro is
12 now supported and working, instead of triggering an assertion.
13 - be a bit more crash-resistant when calling (buggy) on_destroy
14 callbacks (best effort).

17 - apparently mingw doesn't provide a working gettimeofday, try to
18 work around that by relying on Time::HiRes (indirectly brought to
19 my attention by Max Maischein).
20 - fix some portability issues when Time::HiRes was used.
21
225.371 Mon Feb 21 14:36:08 CET 2011
23 - backport to windows process emulation code again.
24
255.37 Sat Feb 19 07:49:44 CET 2011
26 - add a big "Coro thread life cycle" section to "man Coro".
27 - try a tentative workaround against the breakage that 5.13 has
28 introduced without depreciation period. sigh.
29 - no longer use Time::HiRes if gettimeofday is available, which
30 saves quite a lot of memory.
31
325.36 Sun Feb 13 05:33:41 CET 2011
33 - automatically load Coro::Channel, Coro::RWLock, Coro::Semaphore,
34 Coro::SemaphoreSet, Coro::Signal and Coro::Specific on first "new"
35 method call.
36 - undocument Coro::Timer::sleep and obsolete whole module.
37 - optimise Coro::Timer::timeout memory and cpu usage.
38 - slightly updated Coro::Intro for recent changes.
39 - do not initialise PL_dirty anymore.

42 - try a different approach on netbsd - netbsd 5 finally has marginally
43 working pthreads, but still broken ucontext/sigaltstack.
44 - openbsd 4.8 finally got their act together, Coro works out of the box
45 with asm, setjmp and pthreads (no change, just informational).
46
475.24 Sat Oct 23 11:27:12 CEST 2010
48 - port to the EV 4.0 API.
49 - work around bugs in mingw32, making strawberry perl work
50 out of the box.
51 - correctly modify Coro::AIO function prototypes
52 so that they reflect the "no optional parameters" rule.
53 - "ported" libcoro to C++.
54
555.23 Mon May 17 18:50:42 CEST 2010
56 - be more resistant to ordering changes when initialising
57 Coro::AnyEvent, Coro::EV and Coro::Event (reported by Matthias
58 Waldorf).
59 - document that perl 5.12 deliberately removed support for cloning.
60
615.22 Wed Apr 14 03:55:35 CEST 2010
62 - correctly return udnef on errors in Coro::Handle::read/write
63 (testcase by Marc Mims).
8 - convert Coro::Util into a "perl compatibility wrapper" - the functions 64 - convert Coro::Util into a "perl compatibility wrapper" - the functions

10 functions, listing better alternatives in the documentation. This also 66 functions, listing better alternatives in the documentation. This also
11 fixes a bug in Coro::LWP which naively substituted Socket::inet_aton 67 fixes a bug in Coro::LWP which naively substituted Socket::inet_aton
12 with Coro::Util::inet_aton. 68 with Coro::Util::inet_aton.
13 - do not override $Coro::idle unconditionally in Coro.pm, as other 69 - do not override $Coro::idle unconditionally in Coro.pm, as other
14 modules could have provided their own idle coro already 70 modules could have provided their own idle coro already
15 (for exmaple, Coro::AnyEvent). 71 (for exmaple, Coro::AnyEvent).
16 - fix Coro::Util::gethost* functions. 72 - fix Coro::Util::gethost* functions.
73 - Coro::Timer corretcly exports it's symbols (reported by Hideki Yamamura).

19 - automatically load Coro::AnyEvent when AnyEvent and Coro are used 76 - automatically load Coro::AnyEvent when AnyEvent and Coro are used
20 together. 77 together.
21 - add some examples on how to combine other event loops with Coro in 78 - add some examples on how to combine other event loops with Coro in
