1 Revision history for Perl extension Coro.

3 0.49
4 - changed some method calls to function calls for speed
5 inside Coro::Handle.
6 - make Coro::Handle use an array instead of a hash for
7 speed reasons.
8 - IRIX mystery solved: it's SGI's NT, after all: "standard, huh?".
9 sjlj and ucontext should now work.
10 - IRIX-specific port for libcoro.
11
12 0.45 Sun Sep 2 02:54:01 CEST 2001
13 - new method Coro::Handle::timeout.
14 - corrected speling of set...name to get...name in Coro::Socket.
15 - Coro::Socket::accept now returns a Coro::Socket, not a Coro::Handle.
16 - Coro::Handle now supports fileno and FILENO.
17 - added eg/myhttpd, a web server.
18 - Coro::Socket now accepts numeric ports as well as "port(number)"
19 syntax.
20 - moved some scheduling primitives into xs code. more to come.
21 - new simple priority system.
22 - implemented Coro::Event using XS, almost four times faster!
23 - small memory corruption problem fixed (boy that was difficult).
24
25 0.13 Wed Aug 8 16:53:07 CEST 2001
26 - new method Coro::Handle::readline.
27 - added eg/lwp and Coro::Handle::autoflush, to make LWP work.
28 (see eg/lwp on how to make LWP non-blocking).
29 - renamed Coro::Socket::new_inet to new.
30 - added Coro::Util, some utility functions.
31 - die/eval now works better (still get annoying (but true ;)
32 "Callback called exit" messages).
33 - Coro::Handle now supports timeout, and Coro::Socket Timeout.
34 - much better Coro::Socket support.
35
36 0.12 Fri Jul 27 04:19:01 CEST 2001
37 - do not use mmap if neither MAP_ANON nor MAP_ANONYMOUS is defined.
38 - very experimental stack sharing algorithm. not 100% safe but
39 should work well in practise ;)
40 - added Coro::RWLock.
41 - Coro::Specific now works.
42
43 0.11 Tue Jul 24 22:49:21 CEST 2001
44 - added specialized hack for newer and older linux versions (fast).
45 - renamed Coro::Event::IO to Coro::Handle.
46 - new module Coro::Socket.
47
48 0.1 Tue Jul 24 01:47:53 CEST 2001
49 - release candidate 3. A rather new internal structure :(
50 - the great renaming: Damian Conway gave me a suitable replacement
51 for yield.
52 - added Coro/libcoro, a portable coroutine implementation for C
53 (not even perl-dependent!!!), which can be used by Coro::State.
54 - renamed SAVE_DEFSV (on xs-level only) to avoid symbol clash in
55 perl-5.6.
56 - new function Coro::Event::idle.
57 - the idle process is now overriden
58 by default in Coro::Event.
59 - Coro::Channel now enforces the size.
60 - canceling events now works in all cases.
61 - Coro state now include $_ and $@.
62 - yet another bug workaround that I do not really understand :(
63 - new module Coro::Event::IO (very undocumented) to do
64 non-blocking i/o.
65 - performance tuning.
66
67 0.08 Thu Jul 19 06:13:25 CEST 2001
68 - release candidate 2 (new functionality).
69 - add Coro::State::flush function.
70 - transfer now supports a flags value (mostly for speed ATM).
71 - might compile and work in the presence of threads now.
72 - continuations have a saner syntax.
73 - no more memleaks.
74
75 0.07 Tue Jul 17 17:40:18 CEST 2001
76 - release candidate 1 ;)
77 - slightly nicer code.
78 - fixed a scheduling bug in Coro::Event.
79
80 0.06 Tue Jul 17 04:23:24 CEST 2001
81 - ok, I found the showstopper - the same sub must not be
82 re-entered in two different coroutines, otherwise => crash. I
83 see no easy solution to this problem, except by walking the call
84 chaing and saving/restoring the cv's, which is what I do now.
85 - memory leaks still latent, especially at thread termination.
86 - Coro::Event now works (haha).
87
88 0.05 Sun Jul 15 17:32:20 CEST 2001
89 - fixed a few issues in Coro::Event.
90 - I forgot to include Coro::Event in 0.04 :(:(:(
91
92 0.04 Sun Jul 15 05:24:59 CEST 2001
93 - @_ is now properly localized.
94 - Coro::State is now easier subclassable.
95 - Coro::Cont now coroutine-aware.
96 - Coro::Specific is a low-overhead module to create
97 coroutine-specific vars.
98 - Coro::Event provides a simple interface to Event.
99
100 0.03 Fri Jul 13 14:51:52 CEST 2001
101 - transfer() now implemented in XS (beware).
102 - new module Coro::Cont for really faked continuations.
103 - big internal architecture changes: Coro::State is now
104 really low-level and can thus be used to implement other
105 interesting things, While "Coro::" implements a process-like
106 model. Still crude and subject to change.
107 - $_ and $@ are no longer being localized.
108
109 0.02 Tue Jul 10 01:38:17 CEST 2001
110 - implemented "async" attribute.
111 - $_ and $@ are now localized.
112 - added Coro::Channel.
113 - more testcases, still no docs.
114
115 0.01 Tue Jul 3 02:18:41 CEST 2001
116 - original version; copied from Convert::Scalar.
