30.9 Sun Nov 23 04:32:39 CET 2003
4 - fix a few very hard to track down but (of course) stupid
5 memory leaks.
6 - stringify version number to avoid locale problems :(.
7 - perl 5.9.0 does not have SvPADBUSY, reported by Scott Walters,
8 hopefully ignoring it "just works".
9
100.8 Wed Nov 5 19:38:40 CET 2003
11 - port to perl5.005_03, but only 5.8.x+ is supported!
12 - honor LocalAddr even without LocalPort in Coro::Socket.
13
140.7 Tue May 27 03:12:38 CEST 2003
15 - the version jump indicates some level of testing, not gobs
16 of new features.
17 - uh... I found the prompt function in ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
18 Highly correct stuff, that is...
19 - fixed(?) a bug with die's in coroutines causing "panic: top_env".
20 the fix is not well understood by the author, so beware :(.
21
220.652 Thu May 8 02:54:46 CEST 2003
23 - Applied patch by Slaven Rezic to set default to "s" on FreeBSD,
24 cause version 4 doesn't have ucontext.
25 - Benjamin Reed reported that setjmp works fine on darwin,
26 so preselect it.
27
280.651 Sat Mar 29 15:00:23 CET 2003
29 - fix a bug in Coro::Handle where some bytes could get lost
30 on reading, reported by jason@nichego.net.
31
320.65 Sun Mar 23 00:08:26 CET 2003
33 - added a README.linux-glibc.
34 - new module Coro::Select.
35 - also save/restore PL_comppad, fixes segfaults with 5.8.1.
36 (I never claimed that I know what I am doing ;).
37 - set default to setjmp/longjmp on non-x86-linux.
38
390.6 Thu Nov 21 11:09:06 CET 2002
40 - made lazy context switching the default.
41 - fixed the bug where SemaphoreSet::guard
42 was the same as timed_guard and timed_guard was missing.
43 - fix a memleak in Coro::Timer.
44 - reclassified context sharing as not experimental.
45
460.534 Sun Apr 14 03:05:12 CEST 2002
47 - fixed backspace => tab in header parsing (myhttpd).
48 - added eg/readline, for elmex.
49 - Coro::Event now calls ->start on first call instead of
50 ->again, which created wrong timeouts for the first ->next.
51 - fixed a bug where Coro::Socket returned a closed socket instead
52 of nothing on ECONNREFUSED and similar error conditions.
53
540.533 Mon Feb 18 18:49:40 CET 2002
55 - adapt to finally working Event-0.85.
56 - fixed buggy event initialization (trapped under windows, but how
57 could it possibly have worked anywhere?)
58
590.532 Wed Jan 16 02:45:32 CET 2002
60 - removed the reference to pp_entersub, might work on
61 (some) win32 perls now (testsuite works under cygwin,
62 without Event, which freezes).
63
640.531 Mon Dec 10 22:18:44 CET 2001
65 - Fixed a bug in SemaphoreSet::timed_down.
66
670.53 Tue Nov 27 21:11:13 CET 2001
68 - some tests for Event.
69 - slightly different internal architecture to get refcnt into the object
70 and not the reference. might fix a few bugs, certainly did introduce
71 new ones.
72 - Coro::Timer (independent of Event).
73 - new timed_wait functions for Coro::Signal, Semaphore, SemaphoreSet.
74
750.52 Tue Nov 6 21:36:18 CET 2001
76 - ported to cygwin (trivial).
77 patch by Gerrit P. Haase <gp@familiehaase.de>.
78 - small setjmp code fix by Sullivan.DanielJ@epamail.epa.gov.
79
800.51 Thu Nov 1 20:39:01 CET 2001
81 - terminate/cancel now work properly (otherwise termination
82 could cause a "next coroutine is not and contains not..."
83 error.
84 - added Coro::Socket::shutdown.
85 - Coro::Event::loop no is the same as Event::loop.
86 - implemented terminate with args + join.
87
880.5 Fri Sep 28 16:15:35 CEST 2001
89 - fixed "print" on a Coro::Handle. The print method worked.
90 - small tweaks (seem to reduce memory consumption a lot)
91 in various modules.
92 - splendid use of "no warnings" scattered throughout.
93 - added Coro::Handle::rbuf, fixed Coro::Handle::fh.
94
950.49 Sun Sep 16 02:42:45 CEST 2001
96 - changed some method calls to function calls for speed
97 inside Coro::Handle.
98 - make Coro::Handle use an array instead of a hash for
99 speed reasons.
100 - IRIX mystery solved: it's SGI's NT, after all: "standard, huh?".
101 sjlj and ucontext should now work.
102 - IRIX-specific port for libcoro.
103 - swapped order of accept results to match IO::Socket.
104 - changed getsock/peername to sock/peername to match IO::Socket.
105 - fixed a bug that caused segfault when returning to main task
106 under some circumstances.
107 - other bugfixes.
108
1090.45 Sun Sep 2 02:54:01 CEST 2001
110 - new method Coro::Handle::timeout.
111 - corrected speling of set...name to get...name in Coro::Socket.
112 - Coro::Socket::accept now returns a Coro::Socket, not a Coro::Handle.
113 - Coro::Handle now supports fileno and FILENO.
114 - added eg/myhttpd, a web server.
115 - Coro::Socket now accepts numeric ports as well as "port(number)"
116 syntax.
117 - moved some scheduling primitives into xs code. more to come.
118 - new simple priority system.
119 - implemented Coro::Event using XS, almost four times faster!
120 - small memory corruption problem fixed (boy that was difficult).
121
1220.13 Wed Aug 8 16:53:07 CEST 2001
123 - new method Coro::Handle::readline.
124 - added eg/lwp and Coro::Handle::autoflush, to make LWP work.
125 (see eg/lwp on how to make LWP non-blocking).
126 - renamed Coro::Socket::new_inet to new.
127 - added Coro::Util, some utility functions.
128 - die/eval now works better (still get annoying (but true ;)
129 "Callback called exit" messages).
130 - Coro::Handle now supports timeout, and Coro::Socket Timeout.
131 - much better Coro::Socket support.
132
1330.12 Fri Jul 27 04:19:01 CEST 2001
134 - do not use mmap if neither MAP_ANON nor MAP_ANONYMOUS is defined.
135 - very experimental stack sharing algorithm. not 100% safe but
136 should work well in practise ;)
137 - added Coro::RWLock.
138 - Coro::Specific now works.
139
1400.11 Tue Jul 24 22:49:21 CEST 2001
141 - added specialized hack for newer and older linux versions (fast).
142 - renamed Coro::Event::IO to Coro::Handle.
143 - new module Coro::Socket.
144
1450.1 Tue Jul 24 01:47:53 CEST 2001
146 - release candidate 3. A rather new internal structure :(
147 - the great renaming: Damian Conway gave me a suitable replacement
148 for yield.
149 - added Coro/libcoro, a portable coroutine implementation for C
150 (not even perl-dependent!!!), which can be used by Coro::State.
151 - renamed SAVE_DEFSV (on xs-level only) to avoid symbol clash in
152 perl-5.6.
153 - new function Coro::Event::idle.
154 - the idle process is now overriden
155 by default in Coro::Event.
156 - Coro::Channel now enforces the size.
157 - canceling events now works in all cases.
158 - Coro state now include $_ and $@.
159 - yet another bug workaround that I do not really understand :(
160 - new module Coro::Event::IO (very undocumented) to do
161 non-blocking i/o.
162 - performance tuning.
163
1640.08 Thu Jul 19 06:13:25 CEST 2001
165 - release candidate 2 (new functionality).
166 - add Coro::State::flush function.
167 - transfer now supports a flags value (mostly for speed ATM).
168 - might compile and work in the presence of threads now.
169 - continuations have a saner syntax.
170 - no more memleaks.
171
1720.07 Tue Jul 17 17:40:18 CEST 2001
173 - release candidate 1 ;)
174 - slightly nicer code.
175 - fixed a scheduling bug in Coro::Event.
176
1770.06 Tue Jul 17 04:23:24 CEST 2001
178 - ok, I found the showstopper - the same sub must not be
179 re-entered in two different coroutines, otherwise => crash. I
180 see no easy solution to this problem, except by walking the call
181 chaing and saving/restoring the cv's, which is what I do now.
182 - memory leaks still latent, especially at thread termination.
183 - Coro::Event now works (haha).
184
1850.05 Sun Jul 15 17:32:20 CEST 2001
186 - fixed a few issues in Coro::Event.
187 - I forgot to include Coro::Event in 0.04 :(:(:(

4 - @_ is now properly localized. 190 - @_ is now properly localized.
5 - Coro::State is now easier subclassable. 191 - Coro::State is now easier subclassable.
6 - Coro::Cont now coroutine-aware. 192 - Coro::Cont now coroutine-aware.
