7 8
8TODO: add peerhost/peerport from IO::Socket::INET etc. 9 - use a new algorithm to derive padlists for perl 5.18. The old
10 one could lead to 0-pointer accesses inside perl.

10 - bad things could happen in Coro::EV::timed_once if the arguments 126.31 Thu May 9 07:39:48 CEST 2013
13 - Coro::AIO requests would crash if the thread was ready'd
14 while the request was ongoing.

166.29 Wed May 8 02:55:18 CEST 2013
17 - when an on_destroy handler destructs the coro currently being
18 destructed a perl scalar could be accessed after being freed,
19 likely causing a crash.

216.28 Wed Mar 6 06:58:02 CET 2013
22 - clean remnants of existing __DIE__ and __WARN__ handlers so
23 they lose their magic and will not cause segfaults later
24 (testcase by Andrey Sagulin).
25 - improved Coro::State documentation a bit.
26 - Coro::Debug::command now flushes the output.
27 - add hack detection code for x32 abi, because the braindead slugs
28 who designed that made it look exactly like x86_64 without
29 providing proper compile time symbols to test for it. as a result,
30 this detection cannot work reliably.
31 - valgrind stack registering was broken.
32 - do not rely on Time::HiRes anymore in Coro::Debug.
33
346.23 Fri Dec 7 23:36:37 CET 2012
35 - use experimental fiber implementation on native windows
36 perls.
37 - use sizeof (void *) as multiplication factor for stack sizes,
38 to accomodate the totally braindamaged microsoft 64 bit "os".
39 - changed verifier host from win2k-ap510-32 to win7-sp516-32/64.
40 activeperl 5.16 crashes when PerlIO_define_layer is called due
41 to some bug in the perl dll, strawberry perl at least passes
42 the testsuite.
43 - implement Coro::Handle->peeraddr/host/port, for slightly
44 improved compatibility with LWP.
45 - implement 5.17 compatibility by almost blindly applying a
46 good-looking patch by Father Chrysostomos.
47 - move stack management functions into libcoro 3.
48 - libcoro version 3 "released".
11 were wrong. Also support magic values as timed_io_once args. 49 - support magic values as timed_io_once args.
12 - recommend AnyEvent 7+ or EV 4+, also require EV 50 - recommend AnyEvent 7+ or EV 4+, also require EV
13 version 4 or newer for Coro::EV. 51 version 4 or newer for Coro::EV.
