1 Revision history for Perl extension Coro.
2
3 0.51
4 - terminate/cancel now work properly (otherwise termination
5 could cause a "next coroutine is not and contains not..."
6 error.
7 - added Coro::Socket::shutdown.
8
9 0.5 Fri Sep 28 16:15:35 CEST 2001
10 - fixed "print" on a Coro::Handle. The print method worked.
11 - small tweaks (seem to reduce memory consumption a lot)
12 in various modules.
13 - splendid use of "no warnings" scattered throughout.
14 - added Coro::Handle::rbuf, fixed Coro::Handle::fh.
15
16 0.49 Sun Sep 16 02:42:45 CEST 2001
17 - changed some method calls to function calls for speed
18 inside Coro::Handle.
19 - make Coro::Handle use an array instead of a hash for
20 speed reasons.
21 - IRIX mystery solved: it's SGI's NT, after all: "standard, huh?".
22 sjlj and ucontext should now work.
23 - IRIX-specific port for libcoro.
24 - swapped order of accept results to match IO::Socket.
25 - changed getsock/peername to sock/peername to match IO::Socket.
26 - fixed a bug that caused segfault when returning to main task
27 under some circumstances.
28 - other bugfixes.
29
30 0.45 Sun Sep 2 02:54:01 CEST 2001
31 - new method Coro::Handle::timeout.
32 - corrected speling of set...name to get...name in Coro::Socket.
33 - Coro::Socket::accept now returns a Coro::Socket, not a Coro::Handle.
34 - Coro::Handle now supports fileno and FILENO.
35 - added eg/myhttpd, a web server.
36 - Coro::Socket now accepts numeric ports as well as "port(number)"
37 syntax.
38 - moved some scheduling primitives into xs code. more to come.
39 - new simple priority system.
40 - implemented Coro::Event using XS, almost four times faster!
41 - small memory corruption problem fixed (boy that was difficult).
42
43 0.13 Wed Aug 8 16:53:07 CEST 2001
44 - new method Coro::Handle::readline.
45 - added eg/lwp and Coro::Handle::autoflush, to make LWP work.
46 (see eg/lwp on how to make LWP non-blocking).
47 - renamed Coro::Socket::new_inet to new.
48 - added Coro::Util, some utility functions.
49 - die/eval now works better (still get annoying (but true ;)
50 "Callback called exit" messages).
51 - Coro::Handle now supports timeout, and Coro::Socket Timeout.
52 - much better Coro::Socket support.
53
54 0.12 Fri Jul 27 04:19:01 CEST 2001
55 - do not use mmap if neither MAP_ANON nor MAP_ANONYMOUS is defined.
56 - very experimental stack sharing algorithm. not 100% safe but
57 should work well in practise ;)
58 - added Coro::RWLock.
59 - Coro::Specific now works.
60
61 0.11 Tue Jul 24 22:49:21 CEST 2001
62 - added specialized hack for newer and older linux versions (fast).
63 - renamed Coro::Event::IO to Coro::Handle.
64 - new module Coro::Socket.
65
66 0.1 Tue Jul 24 01:47:53 CEST 2001
67 - release candidate 3. A rather new internal structure :(
68 - the great renaming: Damian Conway gave me a suitable replacement
69 for yield.
70 - added Coro/libcoro, a portable coroutine implementation for C
71 (not even perl-dependent!!!), which can be used by Coro::State.
72 - renamed SAVE_DEFSV (on xs-level only) to avoid symbol clash in
73 perl-5.6.
74 - new function Coro::Event::idle.
75 - the idle process is now overriden
76 by default in Coro::Event.
77 - Coro::Channel now enforces the size.
78 - canceling events now works in all cases.
79 - Coro state now include $_ and $@.
80 - yet another bug workaround that I do not really understand :(
81 - new module Coro::Event::IO (very undocumented) to do
82 non-blocking i/o.
83 - performance tuning.
84
85 0.08 Thu Jul 19 06:13:25 CEST 2001
86 - release candidate 2 (new functionality).
87 - add Coro::State::flush function.
88 - transfer now supports a flags value (mostly for speed ATM).
89 - might compile and work in the presence of threads now.
90 - continuations have a saner syntax.
91 - no more memleaks.
92
93 0.07 Tue Jul 17 17:40:18 CEST 2001
94 - release candidate 1 ;)
95 - slightly nicer code.
96 - fixed a scheduling bug in Coro::Event.
97
98 0.06 Tue Jul 17 04:23:24 CEST 2001
99 - ok, I found the showstopper - the same sub must not be
100 re-entered in two different coroutines, otherwise => crash. I
101 see no easy solution to this problem, except by walking the call
102 chaing and saving/restoring the cv's, which is what I do now.
103 - memory leaks still latent, especially at thread termination.
104 - Coro::Event now works (haha).
105
106 0.05 Sun Jul 15 17:32:20 CEST 2001
107 - fixed a few issues in Coro::Event.
108 - I forgot to include Coro::Event in 0.04 :(:(:(
109
110 0.04 Sun Jul 15 05:24:59 CEST 2001
111 - @_ is now properly localized.
112 - Coro::State is now easier subclassable.
113 - Coro::Cont now coroutine-aware.
114 - Coro::Specific is a low-overhead module to create
115 coroutine-specific vars.
116 - Coro::Event provides a simple interface to Event.
117
118 0.03 Fri Jul 13 14:51:52 CEST 2001
119 - transfer() now implemented in XS (beware).
120 - new module Coro::Cont for really faked continuations.
121 - big internal architecture changes: Coro::State is now
122 really low-level and can thus be used to implement other
123 interesting things, While "Coro::" implements a process-like
124 model. Still crude and subject to change.
125 - $_ and $@ are no longer being localized.
126
127 0.02 Tue Jul 10 01:38:17 CEST 2001
128 - implemented "async" attribute.
129 - $_ and $@ are now localized.
130 - added Coro::Channel.
131 - more testcases, still no docs.
132
133 0.01 Tue Jul 3 02:18:41 CEST 2001
134 - original version; copied from Convert::Scalar.
