1 Revision history for Perl extension Coro.
2
3 TODO: should explore PerlIO::via::CoroCede and PerlIO::via::CoroAIO.
4 TODO: maybe implement a default message channel, very much like Erlang
5 (which is cool in a lot of important aspects (failures!),
6 but very lacking in others (higher level ipc)).
7
8 - enable/disable tracing from a new coroutine, not a pooled one.
9 - fix a memleak in Coro::Event.
10 - removed killall call from fork_eval.
11 - made sure store_fd is already loaded so that fork_eval
12 does not have to parse autoload in each subprocess.
13 - only use assembly method if -O switch is in $Config{optimize}.
14 # - if the event model is EV, use EV::DNS to resolve
15 # stuff in Coro::Util.
16 - don't get confused by multiple event notifications in Coro::Handle.
17 - initial support for EV (libevent interface).
18
19 4.13 Wed Oct 24 07:26:45 CEST 2007
20 - add Coro::Storable::blocking_thaw.
21 - use a vastly more complicated technique to localise
22 $SIG{__WARN/DIE__} that also works on perls <= 5.8.8.
23 - use a coroutine for the idle callback Coro::Event,
24 instead of running Event in the current coroutine context.
25 This also catches recursive invocations.
26 - actually report fork errors in gethostbyname and inet_aton.
27
28 4.11 Thu Oct 11 02:40:24 CEST 2007
29 - port to threaded perls.
30
31 4.1 Thu Oct 11 02:38:16 CEST 2007
32 - incompatible change: $SIG{__DIE__} and $SIG{__WARN__} will now
33 be local to each coro (see Coro::State).
34 - incompatible change: for very deep reasons, cede and cede_notself
35 cannot return anything, so nothing will be returned.
36 - possibly bring back 5.10 compatibility (untested).
37 - work around stupid (and wrong) warning on 5.10 :(.
38 - overlay the saved state over the context stack. This saves
39 a few hundred bytes per coroutine on average and also
40 speeds up context switching a bit.
41 - further tune default stack sizes.
42 - (more) correctly calculate stack usage in coro_rss.
43 - Coro::Storable::blocking_* did not properly lock
44 resulting in races between coroutines.
45 - added Coro::Storable::guard.
46 - stopping to trace a coroutine could destroy the cctx of
47 an unrelated coroutine.
48 - explain the relationship between Perl and C coroutines in
49 more detail in Coro::State.
50 - Coro::Util::inet_aton did not short-circuit dotted quad forms,
51 causing a fork per resolve. This also affected Coro::Socket.
52 - switch to a separate stack in $coro->call/eval to avoid
53 invalidating pointers.
54
55 4.03 Sat Oct 6 21:24:00 CEST 2007
56 - added Coro::throw method.
57 - minor code cleanups.
58
59 4.02 Sat Oct 6 02:36:47 CEST 2007
60 - fix a very minor per-coroutine memleak (a single codereference).
61 - fixed a bug where the currently in-use c context would be freed
62 prematurely (can happen only when programs change the stacksize
63 or use tracing).
64 - tracing can no longer keep a coro alive after it terminated.
65 - do static branch prediction in the common path for gcc. gives
66 about 2-5% speed improvement here.
67
68 4.01 Fri Oct 5 22:10:49 CEST 2007
69 - instead of recreating *a* standard output handle we simply
70 use STDOUT, which is faster and hopefully more robust.
71
72 4.0 Fri Oct 5 12:56:00 CEST 2007
73 - incompatibly changed Coro::Storable::freeze.
74 - major new feature: added Coro::Debug, for interactive coroutine
75 debugging, tracing and much more.
76 - major bug fix: unbelievable, but true: $_, $/ and many other
77 "saved" variables actually weren't being saved. This has been fixed,
78 of course, while increasing performance while losing all the save
79 flags.
80 - save flags are gone, and all the api functions dealing with them.
81 - added Coro::Semaphore::adjust.
82 - added Coro::Util::fork_eval.
83 - added Coro::Storable::{nfreeze,blocking_{freeze,nfreeze}}.
84 - added Coro::killall.
85 - reduce initial stack sizes to allow for "micro-coroutines".
86 - better async_pool resource management, moved parts of async_pool
87 handling to XS (major speed improvement).
88 - actually croak before modifying important data structures.
89 - refuse to transfer while compiling.
90 - possibly support eval EXPR better now.
91 - enable assembly per default on linux+bsd x86+amd64.
92 - all internal members were renamed _something for easier subclassing.
93 - many minor tweaks.
94
95 3.63 Wed May 16 14:10:06 CEST 2007
96 - implement handcoded assembly for x86/amd64 SVR ABI.
97
98 3.62 Fri Apr 27 21:36:06 CEST 2007
99 - upgrade libcoro (which might set unwind info correctly).
100 - change default on linux to setjmp/longjmp.
101
102 3.61 Thu Apr 19 12:36:18 CEST 2007
103 - Coro::Storable caused an endless loop when thawing invalid
104 pst's sometimes.
105 - use a Semaphore in Coro::Storable, as Storable doesn't
106 seem to be reentrant (although it is documented to
107 be threadsafe...).
108 - fix Coro::Signal to bring back the original unreliable
109 but stateful semantics.
110 - fixed a lot of typos in Coro.pm (patch submitted by David
111 Steinbrunner, which applied flawlessly).
112
113 3.6 Sat Apr 14 17:13:31 CEST 2007
114 - added some bugfixes to get eg/myhttpd working again.
115 - added Coro::Storable for often-cede'ing freeze/thaw.
116 - try to do a clean exit when a coroutine calls exit
117 (EXPERIMENTAL).
118 - got rid of indirect call through _coro_init.
119 - updated the partly antique examples in eg/ to
120 work again and be a bit less magic, too.
121 - fixed Coro::Signal semantics to work as documented again.
122
123 3.55 Sun Mar 25 01:20:47 CET 2007
124 - add SAVE_DEFFH to save the default filehandle and enable
125 it by default.
126 - finally move socket-operations from Coro::Socket to Coro::Handle
127 to be able to unblock foreign sockets.
128 - add Coro::State::save_also and guarded_save.
129 - add count accessor to Coro::Semaphore.
130 - add Coro::State::cctx_stacksize.
131 - just for the fun of it, do not rely on implicit context,
132 which can dramatically improve performance, but people
133 using windows-process-emulation perls do not care much about
134 performance.
135
136 3.51 Sun Mar 4 14:18:04 CET 2007
137 - fixed a problem when you weakened references to Coro::State's
138 (patch by Yuval Kogman).
139
140 3.501 Wed Feb 28 12:44:07 CET 2007
141 - rename some global symbols as macosx from hell redefines
142 them without asking.
143
144 3.5 Tue Feb 13 20:22:53 CET 2007
145 - do AnyEvent model detection earlier, avoiding problems
146 caused by first using AnyEvent and later Coro::Event.
147 - implement and document Coro::Event event objects.
148 - fix a potential problem in Coro::Event causing crashes.
149 - initialise PL_comppad when creating a new coroutine,
150 avoids crashes on early coro destruction.
151
152 3.41 Mon Jan 22 19:19:49 CET 2007
153 - readline on Coro::Handle did not support undefined $/,
154 nor did it deliver partial lines on EOF or error.
155 - implement malloc fallback for stack allocation because
156 stupid broken idiotic OSX has a stupid broken
157 idiotic fits-the-whole-os mmap "implementation" and
158 my dick feels longer if Coro is portable even to
159 obsolete platforms.
160
161 3.4 Fri Jan 19 21:52:54 CET 2007
162 - remove t/09_timer.t, as it isn't really testing much
163 but was rather flaky in practise.
164 - async_pool coro would keep arguments and callback alive until
165 it was reused.
166 - cancellation of a coroutine could cause spurious idle calls
167 in cede_notself.
168
169 3.3 Sat Jan 6 03:45:00 CET 2007
170 - implement $coro->on_destroy.
171 - Coro::Event blocking semantics have been changed,
172 documented and - hopefully - improved.
173 - fix nice adding, not subtracting, from priority.
174 - fix ->prio and api_is_ready (patch by Mark Hinds).
175 - fixed an assert ("... == prev__cctx->idle_te")
176 that could errronously trigger.
177 - fix various large and small memleaks.
178 - use a (hopefully) more stable cancel implementation
179 that immediately frees the coroutine data.
180 - cede/cede_notself return a status now.
181 - added Coro::guard function.
182 - added a global coroutine pool for jobs (on my machine,
183 I can create and execute 48k simple coros/s with async,
184 and 128k coros with async_pool).
185 - Coro::AIO now uses the coroutine priority as io priority.
186
187 3.2 Fri Dec 22 05:07:09 CET 2006
188 - improve portability to slightly older perls.
189 - use cleaner coroutine destruction.
190 - simplify configuration for users.
191 - optionally (unrecommended) prefer perl functions over
192 their coro replacements.
193
194 3.11 Tue Dec 5 13:11:24 CET 2006
195 - fixed some bogus assert's, but as perl.h disables assert even
196 without NDEBUG (thank you very much), not too many people should
197 notice (that did include myself). Andreas König noticed, though :)
198 - do not save/restore PL_sortcxix on >= 5.9.x, it doesn't seem to have
199 it. Also noticed by Andreas König :)
200 - save/restore tainted status.
201 - verified to pass the testsuite on my 5.9.5.
202
203 3.1 Mon Dec 4 23:03:40 CET 2006
204 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: $/ is now per-coroutine (but slow).
205 - incompatible change: transfer flags are now per-state.
206 - give a better error message on deadlock.
207 - document Coro::nready.
208 - enhanced testsuite.
209
210 3.01 Sun Dec 3 23:47:42 CET 2006
211 - forgot to include Coro::Timer.
212
213 3.0 Sun Dec 3 22:57:25 CET 2006
214 - the "FINALLY COMPLETELY STABLE" release (coming soon:
215 the "FAMOUS LAST WORDS" release).
216 - implement a new stack sharing algorithm, which uses a stack
217 pool (size currently hardcoded).
218 - make stack sharing mandatory (it no longer uses a heuristic).
219 - eval/die no longer cause weird problems under heavy use.
220 - Coro::Event could cause livelocks if it was used but
221 no Coro::Event watchers were used.
222 - Coro::Event now uses asynccheck as prepare does not
223 check for changed watchers.
224 - Coro::Event allows multiple waiting coros and will wake up one
225 per event.
226 - Coro::Event should be cleaner and more efficient now.
227 - new utility function Coro::unblock_sub.
228 - document the sad fact that Event is no longer reentrant.
229 - putting a coroutine into the ready queue twice could under
230 some circumstances lead to stack corruption.
231 - minor incompatibility: subclassing Coro::State is supported
232 directly now without going through a _coro_state member.
233 - state/coro switching is much faster now.
234 - very minor optimisations and code/documentation cleanup.
235 - avoid problems due to compiler inlining.
236 - removed timers from Coro::Timer -> use AnyEvent instead.
237 - replaced Coro::idle coroutine by (cleaner) idle handler.
238 - updated to newest libcoro.
239 - implement enhanced support for valgrind.
240 - implement is_ready and return value for ready.
241 - removed Coro::Cont, it was a misnomer (it's generators),
242 and it was somewhat annoying to get it right. Will come back
243 if somebody asks for it :)
244 - many ->wait methods and Coro::Event could return
245 spuriously without the event having happened.
246
247 2.5 Tue Nov 7 12:22:33 CET 2006
248 - made Coro::Util, Coro::Select, Coro::Handle and Coro::Socket
249 use AnyEvent, moved them to Coro/.
250 - added Coro::LWP which contains all the uglyness required to
251 make LWP non-blocking.
252 - should work with perl 5.9.x now (Andreas König made me do it).
253 - fixed another bug in Coro::Select when the timeout was undef.
254 - reuse PL_start_env for all coros, saves some memory per coroutine.
255 - manage PL_top_env differently, hopefully to avoid panic: top_env.
256 - timeout argument was not properly used in Coro::Socket.
257 - allow limited forms of subclassing in Coro::Handle/Coro::Socket.
258 - emulate undocumented(!) functionality of IO::Socket required
259 by LWP(!!).
260 - updated eg/lwp to work with newer lwp's.
261 - remove "FATAL: uncaught exception" prefix. Coroutines that die
262 kill the whole process, just as exceptions in the main "coroutine"
263 did already.
264
265 2.1 Wed Nov 1 23:01:13 CET 2006
266 - fix a long-standing bug in Coro::Select where select with
267 zero timeout would instead change the current default filehandle.
268 - use a simpler and hopefully more robust way to clone padlists
269 (uses less memory and a perl function instead of our own).
270 - coro can now create a stack guard area on many architectures.
271 - Coro::AIO properly reexports additional functions from IO::AIO.
272 - updated libcoro with a workaround for OS X,
273 pach and testing by Michael Schwern.
274
275 2.0 Tue Oct 24 05:47:17 CEST 2006
276 - support additional aio requests in Coro::AIO.
277
278 1.9 (never properly released due to a glitch)
279
280 1.8 Thu Feb 2 00:59:06 CET 2006
281 - applied suggested patch by SAMV to avoid problems during stupid
282 mark & sweep gc run.
283 - applied patch by Scott Walters for 5.9.3 compatibility.
284
285 1.7 Tue Dec 27 01:41:58 CET 2005
286 - added Coro::AIO, a thin wrapper around IO::AIO.
287 - improved Makefile.PL explanations.
288
289 1.6 Mon Dec 12 21:30:05 CET 2005
290 - additionally save PM_curpm might fix as-of-yet
291 unseen problems with regex matches being attributed to the
292 wrong package.
293 - add t/10_bugs.t, which currently checks against imho broken
294 perls that use 0.26MB of stack space per Perl_magic_get
295 invocation (newer linuxes) as opposed to the 0.0002MB perl
296 normally uses.
297 - make stacksize configurable for the ultimate debian experience.
298
299 1.51 Mon Dec 12 18:48:36 CET 2005
300 - remove debugging warn() accidentally left in Coro::Select.
301
302 1.5 Tue Nov 29 13:32:44 CET 2005
303 - use Coro::Event inside Coro::Select to avoid spurious deadlocks.
304 - fix Coro::Select 'select'.
305 - strict'ify some modules.
306 - libcoro errornously restored the SIGUSR2 handler to SIGUSR1.
307 - use XSLoader in selected modules.
308 - remove some 5.6 compatibility cruft.
309
310 1.4 Tue Sep 6 00:11:05 CEST 2005
311 - libcoro did not take into account the trampoline on amd64,
312 when 'l'inux method was used.
313
314 1.31 Tue Aug 30 23:31:33 CEST 2005
315 - some portability fixes/workarounds.
316
317 1.3 Sat Aug 20 03:08:56 CEST 2005
318 - no code changes. module seems to work fine.
319 - improve Coro::State docs, remove reference to nonexisting
320 Coro::State::flush method.
321 - no longer autodetect windows, present it as an option instead.
322
323 1.2 Mon May 16 02:00:55 CEST 2005
324 - included libcoro.c earlier in State.xs, might improve portability.
325 - use a faster and possibly more stable Coro::Cont implementation.
326 - accept x86_64 in addition to amd64 for optimized linux-amd64 support.
327 - fix bugs Coro::SemaphoreSet that could cause locks never to be freed.
328 - fix bugs in CoroAPI.h and document it in Coro::MakeMaker.
329
330 1.11 Thu Mar 3 18:00:52 CET 2005
331 - change of contact address.
332
333 1.1 Tue Feb 22 20:51:16 CET 2005
334 - support [l]inux method on amd64.
335 - allow some context switches while compiling/eval'ing.
336
337 1.0 Tue Aug 10 03:47:27 CEST 2004
338 - Event 0.89 fixes the bug again.
339 - fix the remaining(??) memleak. I didn't free the cache-AV for
340 padlists, so one AV per created anon-sub leaked.
341
342 0.97 Fri May 14 15:23:32 CEST 2004
343 - remove stupid gcc extension that was an experiment only anyway.
344
345 0.96 Thu May 13 18:09:29 CEST 2004
346 - tell people if they have yet another broken Event variant.
347 - made Coro to work _better_ with threads (it seems that, as long
348 as you use Coros in one thread only everything will work fine.
349 Looking at the perl source the problem might be missing locking
350 between Coro and some perl internal routines. That's not easily
351 fixable).
352 - (hopefully) got rid of the static xnext inside transfer.
353
354 0.95 Sun Feb 15 03:20:28 CET 2004
355 - removed Coro::State::flush, implemented a new and much
356 faster caching mechanism by attaching magic to the CV.
357 - a memleak with (real) closures remains.
358 - dramatically reduced size of stacks to 65536 (linux/x86), after
359 observing that even myhttpd never had more than a kilobyte
360 of stack in use (stack is still only physically allocated in
361 pagesize increments for systems suporting mmap).
362 - fix for a "cygwin-64" architecture added, proposed by Stefan Traby.
363 - fix for threaded perl.
364
365 0.9 Sun Nov 23 04:32:39 CET 2003
366 - fix a few very hard to track down but (of course) stupid
367 memory leaks.
368 - stringify version number to avoid locale problems :(.
369 - perl 5.9.0 does not have SvPADBUSY, reported by Scott Walters,
370 hopefully ignoring it "just works".
371
372 0.8 Wed Nov 5 19:38:40 CET 2003
373 - port to perl5.005_03, but only 5.8.x+ is supported!
374 - honor LocalAddr even without LocalPort in Coro::Socket.
375
376 0.7 Tue May 27 03:12:38 CEST 2003
377 - the version jump indicates some level of testing, not gobs
378 of new features.
379 - uh... I found the prompt function in ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
380 Highly correct stuff, that is...
381 - fixed(?) a bug with die's in coroutines causing "panic: top_env".
382 the fix is not well understood by the author, so beware :(.
383
384 0.652 Thu May 8 02:54:46 CEST 2003
385 - Applied patch by Slaven Rezic to set default to "s" on FreeBSD,
386 cause version 4 doesn't have ucontext.
387 - Benjamin Reed reported that setjmp works fine on darwin,
388 so preselect it.
389
390 0.651 Sat Mar 29 15:00:23 CET 2003
391 - fix a bug in Coro::Handle where some bytes could get lost
392 on reading, reported by jason@nichego.net.
393
394 0.65 Sun Mar 23 00:08:26 CET 2003
395 - added a README.linux-glibc.
396 - new module Coro::Select.
397 - also save/restore PL_comppad, fixes segfaults with 5.8.1.
398 (I never claimed that I know what I am doing ;).
399 - set default to setjmp/longjmp on non-x86-linux.
400
401 0.6 Thu Nov 21 11:09:06 CET 2002
402 - made lazy context switching the default.
403 - fixed the bug where SemaphoreSet::guard
404 was the same as timed_guard and timed_guard was missing.
405 - fix a memleak in Coro::Timer.
406 - reclassified context sharing as not experimental.
407
408 0.534 Sun Apr 14 03:05:12 CEST 2002
409 - fixed backspace => tab in header parsing (myhttpd).
410 - added eg/readline, for elmex.
411 - Coro::Event now calls ->start on first call instead of
412 ->again, which created wrong timeouts for the first ->next.
413 - fixed a bug where Coro::Socket returned a closed socket instead
414 of nothing on ECONNREFUSED and similar error conditions.
415
416 0.533 Mon Feb 18 18:49:40 CET 2002
417 - adapt to finally working Event-0.85.
418 - fixed buggy event initialization (trapped under windows, but how
419 could it possibly have worked anywhere?)
420
421 0.532 Wed Jan 16 02:45:32 CET 2002
422 - removed the reference to pp_entersub, might work on
423 (some) win32 perls now (testsuite works under cygwin,
424 without Event, which freezes).
425
426 0.531 Mon Dec 10 22:18:44 CET 2001
427 - Fixed a bug in SemaphoreSet::timed_down.
428
429 0.53 Tue Nov 27 21:11:13 CET 2001
430 - some tests for Event.
431 - slightly different internal architecture to get refcnt into the object
432 and not the reference. might fix a few bugs, certainly did introduce
433 new ones.
434 - Coro::Timer (independent of Event).
435 - new timed_wait functions for Coro::Signal, Semaphore, SemaphoreSet.
436
437 0.52 Tue Nov 6 21:36:18 CET 2001
438 - ported to cygwin (trivial).
439 patch by Gerrit P. Haase <gp@familiehaase.de>.
440 - small setjmp code fix by Sullivan.DanielJ@epamail.epa.gov.
441
442 0.51 Thu Nov 1 20:39:01 CET 2001
443 - terminate/cancel now work properly (otherwise termination
444 could cause a "next coroutine is not and contains not..."
445 error.
446 - added Coro::Socket::shutdown.
447 - Coro::Event::loop no is the same as Event::loop.
448 - implemented terminate with args + join.
449
450 0.5 Fri Sep 28 16:15:35 CEST 2001
451 - fixed "print" on a Coro::Handle. The print method worked.
452 - small tweaks (seem to reduce memory consumption a lot)
453 in various modules.
454 - splendid use of "no warnings" scattered throughout.
455 - added Coro::Handle::rbuf, fixed Coro::Handle::fh.
456
457 0.49 Sun Sep 16 02:42:45 CEST 2001
458 - changed some method calls to function calls for speed
459 inside Coro::Handle.
460 - make Coro::Handle use an array instead of a hash for
461 speed reasons.
462 - IRIX mystery solved: it's SGI's NT, after all: "standard, huh?".
463 sjlj and ucontext should now work.

480 - new simple priority system.
481 - implemented Coro::Event using XS, almost four times faster!
482 - small memory corruption problem fixed (boy that was difficult).
483
484 0.13 Wed Aug 8 16:53:07 CEST 2001
485 - new method Coro::Handle::readline.
486 - added eg/lwp and Coro::Handle::autoflush, to make LWP work.
487 (see eg/lwp on how to make LWP non-blocking).
488 - renamed Coro::Socket::new_inet to new.
489 - added Coro::Util, some utility functions.
490 - die/eval now works better (still get annoying (but true ;)
491 "Callback called exit" messages).
492 - Coro::Handle now supports timeout, and Coro::Socket Timeout.
493 - much better Coro::Socket support.
494
495 0.12 Fri Jul 27 04:19:01 CEST 2001
496 - do not use mmap if neither MAP_ANON nor MAP_ANONYMOUS is defined.
497 - very experimental stack sharing algorithm. not 100% safe but
498 should work well in practise ;)
499 - added Coro::RWLock.
500 - Coro::Specific now works.
501
502 0.11 Tue Jul 24 22:49:21 CEST 2001
503 - added specialized hack for newer and older linux versions (fast).
504 - renamed Coro::Event::IO to Coro::Handle.
505 - new module Coro::Socket.
506
507 0.1 Tue Jul 24 01:47:53 CEST 2001
508 - release candidate 3. A rather new internal structure :(
509 - the great renaming: Damian Conway gave me a suitable replacement
510 for yield.
511 - added Coro/libcoro, a portable coroutine implementation for C
512 (not even perl-dependent!!!), which can be used by Coro::State.
513 - renamed SAVE_DEFSV (on xs-level only) to avoid symbol clash in
514 perl-5.6.
515 - new function Coro::Event::idle.
516 - the idle process is now overriden
517 by default in Coro::Event.
518 - Coro::Channel now enforces the size.
519 - canceling events now works in all cases.
520 - Coro state now include $_ and $@.
521 - yet another bug workaround that I do not really understand :(
522 - new module Coro::Event::IO (very undocumented) to do
523 non-blocking i/o.
524 - performance tuning.
525
526 0.08 Thu Jul 19 06:13:25 CEST 2001
527 - release candidate 2 (new functionality).
528 - add Coro::State::flush function.
529 - transfer now supports a flags value (mostly for speed ATM).
530 - might compile and work in the presence of threads now.
531 - continuations have a saner syntax.
532 - no more memleaks.
533
534 0.07 Tue Jul 17 17:40:18 CEST 2001
535 - release candidate 1 ;)
536 - slightly nicer code.
537 - fixed a scheduling bug in Coro::Event.
538
539 0.06 Tue Jul 17 04:23:24 CEST 2001
540 - ok, I found the showstopper - the same sub must not be
541 re-entered in two different coroutines, otherwise => crash. I
542 see no easy solution to this problem, except by walking the call
543 chaing and saving/restoring the cv's, which is what I do now.
544 - memory leaks still latent, especially at thread termination.
545 - Coro::Event now works (haha).
546
547 0.05 Sun Jul 15 17:32:20 CEST 2001
548 - fixed a few issues in Coro::Event.
549 - I forgot to include Coro::Event in 0.04 :(:(:(
550
551 0.04 Sun Jul 15 05:24:59 CEST 2001
552 - @_ is now properly localized.
553 - Coro::State is now easier subclassable.
554 - Coro::Cont now coroutine-aware.
555 - Coro::Specific is a low-overhead module to create
556 coroutine-specific vars.
557 - Coro::Event provides a simple interface to Event.
558
559 0.03 Fri Jul 13 14:51:52 CEST 2001
560 - transfer() now implemented in XS (beware).
561 - new module Coro::Cont for really faked continuations.
562 - big internal architecture changes: Coro::State is now
563 really low-level and can thus be used to implement other
564 interesting things, While "Coro::" implements a process-like
565 model. Still crude and subject to change.
566 - $_ and $@ are no longer being localized.
567
568 0.02 Tue Jul 10 01:38:17 CEST 2001
569 - implemented "async" attribute.
570 - $_ and $@ are now localized.
571 - added Coro::Channel.
572 - more testcases, still no docs.
573
574 0.01 Tue Jul 3 02:18:41 CEST 2001
575 - original version; copied from Convert::Scalar.
