3 0.45
4 - new method Coro::Handle::timeout.
5 - corrected speling of set...name to get...name in Coro::Socket.
6 - Coro::Socket::accept now returns a Coro::Socket, not a Coro::Handle.
7 - Coro::Handle now supports fileno and FILENO.
8 - added eg/myhttpd, a web server.
9 - Coro::Socket now accepts numeric ports as well as "port(number)"
10 syntax.
11 - moved some scheduling primitives into xs code. more to come.
12 - new simple priority system.
13 - implemented Coro::Event using XS, almost four times faster!
14 - small memory corruption problem fixed (boy that was difficult).
15
16 0.13 Wed Aug 8 16:53:07 CEST 2001
17 - new method Coro::Handle::readline.
18 - added eg/lwp and Coro::Handle::autoflush, to make LWP work.
19 (see eg/lwp on how to make LWP non-blocking).
20 - renamed Coro::Socket::new_inet to new.
21 - added Coro::Util, some utility functions.
22 - die/eval now works better (still get annoying (but true ;)
23 "Callback called exit" messages).
24 - Coro::Handle now supports timeout, and Coro::Socket Timeout.
25 - much better Coro::Socket support.
26
27 0.12 Fri Jul 27 04:19:01 CEST 2001
28 - do not use mmap if neither MAP_ANON nor MAP_ANONYMOUS is defined.
29 - very experimental stack sharing algorithm. not 100% safe but
30 should work well in practise ;)
31 - added Coro::RWLock.
32 - Coro::Specific now works.
33
34 0.11 Tue Jul 24 22:49:21 CEST 2001
35 - added specialized hack for newer and older linux versions (fast).
36 - renamed Coro::Event::IO to Coro::Handle.
37 - new module Coro::Socket.
38
39 0.1 Tue Jul 24 01:47:53 CEST 2001
40 - release candidate 3. A rather new internal structure :(
41 - the great renaming: Damian Conway gave me a suitable replacement
42 for yield.
43 - added Coro/libcoro, a portable coroutine implementation for C
44 (not even perl-dependent!!!), which can be used by Coro::State.
45 - renamed SAVE_DEFSV (on xs-level only) to avoid symbol clash in
46 perl-5.6.
47 - new function Coro::Event::idle.
48 - the idle process is now overriden
49 by default in Coro::Event.
50 - Coro::Channel now enforces the size.
51 - canceling events now works in all cases.
52 - Coro state now include $_ and $@.
53 - yet another bug workaround that I do not really understand :(
54 - new module Coro::Event::IO (very undocumented) to do
55 non-blocking i/o.
56 - performance tuning.
57
58 0.08 Thu Jul 19 06:13:25 CEST 2001
59 - release candidate 2 (new functionality).
60 - add Coro::State::flush function.
61 - transfer now supports a flags value (mostly for speed ATM).
62 - might compile and work in the presence of threads now.
63 - continuations have a saner syntax.
64 - no more memleaks.
65
66 0.07 Tue Jul 17 17:40:18 CEST 2001
67 - release candidate 1 ;)
68 - slightly nicer code.
69 - fixed a scheduling bug in Coro::Event.
70
71 0.06 Tue Jul 17 04:23:24 CEST 2001
72 - ok, I found the showstopper - the same sub must not be
73 re-entered in two different coroutines, otherwise => crash. I
74 see no easy solution to this problem, except by walking the call
75 chaing and saving/restoring the cv's, which is what I do now.
76 - memory leaks still latent, especially at thread termination.
77 - Coro::Event now works (haha).
78
79 0.05 Sun Jul 15 17:32:20 CEST 2001
80 - fixed a few issues in Coro::Event.
81 - I forgot to include Coro::Event in 0.04 :(:(:(
82
83 0.04 Sun Jul 15 05:24:59 CEST 2001
84 - @_ is now properly localized.
85 - Coro::State is now easier subclassable.
86 - Coro::Cont now coroutine-aware.
87 - Coro::Specific is a low-overhead module to create
88 coroutine-specific vars.
89 - Coro::Event provides a simple interface to Event.
90
91 0.03 Fri Jul 13 14:51:52 CEST 2001
92 - transfer() now implemented in XS (beware).
93 - new module Coro::Cont for really faked continuations.
94 - big internal architecture changes: Coro::State is now
95 really low-level and can thus be used to implement other
96 interesting things, While "Coro::" implements a process-like
97 model. Still crude and subject to change.
98 - $_ and $@ are no longer being localized.
99
100 0.02 Tue Jul 10 01:38:17 CEST 2001
101 - implemented "async" attribute.
102 - $_ and $@ are now localized.
103 - added Coro::Channel.
104 - more testcases, still no docs.
105
106 0.01 Tue Jul 3 02:18:41 CEST 2001
107 - original version; copied from Convert::Scalar.
