|
10 | - convert Coro::Util into a "perl compatibility wrapper" - the functions |
|
|
11 | are less useful now, but are drop-in replacements for existing |
|
|
12 | functions, listing better alternatives in the documentation. This also |
|
|
13 | fixes a bug in Coro::LWP which naively substituted Socket::inet_aton |
|
|
14 | with Coro::Util::inet_aton. |
|
|
15 | - do not override $Coro::idle unconditionally in Coro.pm, as other |
|
|
16 | modules could have provided their own idle coro already |
|
|
17 | (for exmaple, Coro::AnyEvent). |
|
|
18 | - fix Coro::Util::gethost* functions. |
|
|
19 | - Coro::Timer corretcly exports it's symbols (reported by Hideki Yamamura). |
|
|

21 | 5.21 Wed Dec 16 07:19:51 CET 2009 |
|
|
22 | - automatically load Coro::AnyEvent when AnyEvent and Coro are used |
|
|
23 | together. |
|
|
24 | - add some examples on how to combine other event loops with Coro in |
|
|
25 | Coro::AnyEvent, and how to run it (and not to block). Seems to be |
|
|
26 | the most common source of confusion. |
|
|
27 | - try to catch people naively blocking in an event callback. |
|
|
28 | - work around the perl filehandle bug issue in conjunction with |
|
|
29 | older common::sense (as indirectly pointed out by ZSystem). |
|
|
30 | - clarify the "not from signal handlers" section. |
|
|
31 | |

|
32 | 5.2 Sun Oct 4 14:54:24 CEST 2009 |
|
|
33 | - Coro::Storable destroyed the prototypes of the functions it wrapped. |
|
|
34 | - export rouse_cb and rouse_wait by default now. |
|
|
35 | - fix various prototype mismatches in Coro::AnyEvent and Coro::Handle. |
|
|
36 | - new method $state->swap_sv. |
|
|
37 | - added section on "windows process emulation" to the manpage, |
|
|
38 | after a not-so-fruitful (nor-friendly) "discussion" with chip |
|
|
39 | salzenberg (discussion implies arguments, but his only arguments |
|
|
40 | were ad-hominems, one wonders why he started it in the first |
|
|
41 | place). I hope this explains it well enough for him to understand, |
|
|
42 | and maybe well enough for others to understand. |
|
|
43 | - use common::sense everywhere now. |
|
|
44 | - idle callbacks are no longer supported, use idle coros instead. |
|
|
45 | - print a thread listing when a deadlock is detected. |
|
|
46 | |
|
|
47 | 5.17 Sat Aug 22 23:09:31 CEST 2009 |
|
|
48 | - work around a bug in the perl debugger causing crashes |
|
|
49 | when running under the debugger by marking _pool_handler as nodebug. |
|
|
50 | - speed up Coro::async considerably. |
|
|
51 | - try some hacks to get netbsd to work "more often" - their broken |
|
|
52 | setjmp/longjmp, ucontext *and* phtreads are really hard on Coro. |
|
|
53 | - convert Coro to AE 5.0 API. |
|
|
54 | |
|
|
55 | 5.162 Tue Jul 28 04:04:03 CEST 2009 |
|
|
56 | - perl 5.8.2 is now minimum requirement. |
|
|
57 | - skip t/19_handle.t on broken windows perls. |
|
|
58 | |
|
|
59 | 5.161 Wed Jul 22 04:47:38 CEST 2009 |
|
|
60 | - Coro::AnyEvent::poll could have a different prototype when EV was |
|
|
61 | used as backend (analyzed by Tatsuhiko Miyagawa). |
|
|
62 | - Coro::AnyEvent errornously initialised the event loop when loaded, |
|
|
63 | not on demand. |
|
|
64 | - try to workaround rare */t/01_unblock.t failures. |
| 10 | |
