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