1Revision history for Perl extension Coro. 1Revision history for Perl extension Coro.
2
3 - removed Coro::State::flush, implemented a new and much
4 faster caching mechanism by attaching magic to the CV.
5
60.9 Sun Nov 23 04:32:39 CET 2003
7 - fix a few very hard to track down but (of course) stupid
8 memory leaks.
9 - stringify version number to avoid locale problems :(.
10 - perl 5.9.0 does not have SvPADBUSY, reported by Scott Walters,
11 hopefully ignoring it "just works".
12
130.8 Wed Nov 5 19:38:40 CET 2003
14 - port to perl5.005_03, but only 5.8.x+ is supported!
15 - honor LocalAddr even without LocalPort in Coro::Socket.
16
170.7 Tue May 27 03:12:38 CEST 2003
18 - the version jump indicates some level of testing, not gobs
19 of new features.
20 - uh... I found the prompt function in ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
21 Highly correct stuff, that is...
22 - fixed(?) a bug with die's in coroutines causing "panic: top_env".
23 the fix is not well understood by the author, so beware :(.
24
250.652 Thu May 8 02:54:46 CEST 2003
26 - Applied patch by Slaven Rezic to set default to "s" on FreeBSD,
27 cause version 4 doesn't have ucontext.
28 - Benjamin Reed reported that setjmp works fine on darwin,
29 so preselect it.
30
310.651 Sat Mar 29 15:00:23 CET 2003
32 - fix a bug in Coro::Handle where some bytes could get lost
33 on reading, reported by jason@nichego.net.
34
350.65 Sun Mar 23 00:08:26 CET 2003
36 - added a README.linux-glibc.
37 - new module Coro::Select.
38 - also save/restore PL_comppad, fixes segfaults with 5.8.1.
39 (I never claimed that I know what I am doing ;).
40 - set default to setjmp/longjmp on non-x86-linux.
41
420.6 Thu Nov 21 11:09:06 CET 2002
43 - made lazy context switching the default.
44 - fixed the bug where SemaphoreSet::guard
45 was the same as timed_guard and timed_guard was missing.
46 - fix a memleak in Coro::Timer.
47 - reclassified context sharing as not experimental.
48
490.534 Sun Apr 14 03:05:12 CEST 2002
50 - fixed backspace => tab in header parsing (myhttpd).
51 - added eg/readline, for elmex.
52 - Coro::Event now calls ->start on first call instead of
53 ->again, which created wrong timeouts for the first ->next.
54 - fixed a bug where Coro::Socket returned a closed socket instead
55 of nothing on ECONNREFUSED and similar error conditions.
56
570.533 Mon Feb 18 18:49:40 CET 2002
58 - adapt to finally working Event-0.85.
59 - fixed buggy event initialization (trapped under windows, but how
60 could it possibly have worked anywhere?)
61
620.532 Wed Jan 16 02:45:32 CET 2002
63 - removed the reference to pp_entersub, might work on
64 (some) win32 perls now (testsuite works under cygwin,
65 without Event, which freezes).
66
670.531 Mon Dec 10 22:18:44 CET 2001
68 - Fixed a bug in SemaphoreSet::timed_down.
69
700.53 Tue Nov 27 21:11:13 CET 2001
71 - some tests for Event.
72 - slightly different internal architecture to get refcnt into the object
73 and not the reference. might fix a few bugs, certainly did introduce
74 new ones.
75 - Coro::Timer (independent of Event).
76 - new timed_wait functions for Coro::Signal, Semaphore, SemaphoreSet.
77
780.52 Tue Nov 6 21:36:18 CET 2001
79 - ported to cygwin (trivial).
80 patch by Gerrit P. Haase <gp@familiehaase.de>.
81 - small setjmp code fix by Sullivan.DanielJ@epamail.epa.gov.
82
830.51 Thu Nov 1 20:39:01 CET 2001
84 - terminate/cancel now work properly (otherwise termination
85 could cause a "next coroutine is not and contains not..."
86 error.
87 - added Coro::Socket::shutdown.
88 - Coro::Event::loop no is the same as Event::loop.
89 - implemented terminate with args + join.
90
910.5 Fri Sep 28 16:15:35 CEST 2001
92 - fixed "print" on a Coro::Handle. The print method worked.
93 - small tweaks (seem to reduce memory consumption a lot)
94 in various modules.
95 - splendid use of "no warnings" scattered throughout.
96 - added Coro::Handle::rbuf, fixed Coro::Handle::fh.
97
980.49 Sun Sep 16 02:42:45 CEST 2001
99 - changed some method calls to function calls for speed
100 inside Coro::Handle.
101 - make Coro::Handle use an array instead of a hash for
102 speed reasons.
103 - IRIX mystery solved: it's SGI's NT, after all: "standard, huh?".
104 sjlj and ucontext should now work.
105 - IRIX-specific port for libcoro.
106 - swapped order of accept results to match IO::Socket.
107 - changed getsock/peername to sock/peername to match IO::Socket.
108 - fixed a bug that caused segfault when returning to main task
109 under some circumstances.
110 - other bugfixes.
111
1120.45 Sun Sep 2 02:54:01 CEST 2001
113 - new method Coro::Handle::timeout.
114 - corrected speling of set...name to get...name in Coro::Socket.
115 - Coro::Socket::accept now returns a Coro::Socket, not a Coro::Handle.
116 - Coro::Handle now supports fileno and FILENO.
117 - added eg/myhttpd, a web server.
118 - Coro::Socket now accepts numeric ports as well as "port(number)"
119 syntax.
120 - moved some scheduling primitives into xs code. more to come.
121 - new simple priority system.
122 - implemented Coro::Event using XS, almost four times faster!
123 - small memory corruption problem fixed (boy that was difficult).
124
1250.13 Wed Aug 8 16:53:07 CEST 2001
126 - new method Coro::Handle::readline.
127 - added eg/lwp and Coro::Handle::autoflush, to make LWP work.
128 (see eg/lwp on how to make LWP non-blocking).
129 - renamed Coro::Socket::new_inet to new.
130 - added Coro::Util, some utility functions.
131 - die/eval now works better (still get annoying (but true ;)
132 "Callback called exit" messages).
133 - Coro::Handle now supports timeout, and Coro::Socket Timeout.
134 - much better Coro::Socket support.
135
1360.12 Fri Jul 27 04:19:01 CEST 2001
137 - do not use mmap if neither MAP_ANON nor MAP_ANONYMOUS is defined.
138 - very experimental stack sharing algorithm. not 100% safe but
139 should work well in practise ;)
140 - added Coro::RWLock.
141 - Coro::Specific now works.
142
1430.11 Tue Jul 24 22:49:21 CEST 2001

146 - new module Coro::Socket.
147
1480.1 Tue Jul 24 01:47:53 CEST 2001
149 - release candidate 3. A rather new internal structure :(
150 - the great renaming: Damian Conway gave me a suitable replacement
151 for yield.
152 - added Coro/libcoro, a portable coroutine implementation for C
153 (not even perl-dependent!!!), which can be used by Coro::State.
154 - renamed SAVE_DEFSV (on xs-level only) to avoid symbol clash in
155 perl-5.6.
156 - new function Coro::Event::idle.
157 - the idle process is now overriden
158 by default in Coro::Event.
159 - Coro::Channel now enforces the size.
160 - canceling events now works in all cases.
161 - Coro state now include $_ and $@.
162 - yet another bug workaround that I do not really understand :(
163 - new module Coro::Event::IO (very undocumented) to do
164 non-blocking i/o.
165 - performance tuning.
166
1670.08 Thu Jul 19 06:13:25 CEST 2001
168 - release candidate 2 (new functionality).
169 - add Coro::State::flush function.

173 - no more memleaks.
2 174
30.07 Tue Jul 17 17:40:18 CEST 2001 1750.07 Tue Jul 17 17:40:18 CEST 2001
