1 Revision history for Perl extension Coro.
2
3 0.53
4 - some tests for Event.
5 - slightly different internal architecture to get refcnt into the object
6 and not the reference. might fix a few bugs, certainly did introduce
7 new ones.
8 - Coro::Timer (independent of Event).
9 - new timed_wait functions for Coro::Signal, Semaphore, SemaphoreSet.
10
11 0.52 Tue Nov 6 21:36:18 CET 2001
12 - ported to cygwin (trivial).
13 patch by Gerrit P. Haase <gp@familiehaase.de>.
14 - small setjmp code fix by Sullivan.DanielJ@epamail.epa.gov.
15
16 0.51 Thu Nov 1 20:39:01 CET 2001
17 - terminate/cancel now work properly (otherwise termination
18 could cause a "next coroutine is not and contains not..."
19 error.
20 - added Coro::Socket::shutdown.
21 - Coro::Event::loop no is the same as Event::loop.
22 - implemented terminate with args + join.
23
24 0.5 Fri Sep 28 16:15:35 CEST 2001
25 - fixed "print" on a Coro::Handle. The print method worked.
26 - small tweaks (seem to reduce memory consumption a lot)
27 in various modules.
28 - splendid use of "no warnings" scattered throughout.
29 - added Coro::Handle::rbuf, fixed Coro::Handle::fh.
30
31 0.49 Sun Sep 16 02:42:45 CEST 2001
32 - changed some method calls to function calls for speed
33 inside Coro::Handle.
34 - make Coro::Handle use an array instead of a hash for
35 speed reasons.
36 - IRIX mystery solved: it's SGI's NT, after all: "standard, huh?".
37 sjlj and ucontext should now work.
38 - IRIX-specific port for libcoro.
39 - swapped order of accept results to match IO::Socket.
40 - changed getsock/peername to sock/peername to match IO::Socket.
41 - fixed a bug that caused segfault when returning to main task
42 under some circumstances.
43 - other bugfixes.
44
45 0.45 Sun Sep 2 02:54:01 CEST 2001
46 - new method Coro::Handle::timeout.
47 - corrected speling of set...name to get...name in Coro::Socket.
48 - Coro::Socket::accept now returns a Coro::Socket, not a Coro::Handle.
49 - Coro::Handle now supports fileno and FILENO.
50 - added eg/myhttpd, a web server.
51 - Coro::Socket now accepts numeric ports as well as "port(number)"
52 syntax.
53 - moved some scheduling primitives into xs code. more to come.
54 - new simple priority system.
55 - implemented Coro::Event using XS, almost four times faster!
56 - small memory corruption problem fixed (boy that was difficult).
57
58 0.13 Wed Aug 8 16:53:07 CEST 2001
59 - new method Coro::Handle::readline.
60 - added eg/lwp and Coro::Handle::autoflush, to make LWP work.
61 (see eg/lwp on how to make LWP non-blocking).
62 - renamed Coro::Socket::new_inet to new.
63 - added Coro::Util, some utility functions.
64 - die/eval now works better (still get annoying (but true ;)
65 "Callback called exit" messages).
66 - Coro::Handle now supports timeout, and Coro::Socket Timeout.
67 - much better Coro::Socket support.
68
69 0.12 Fri Jul 27 04:19:01 CEST 2001
70 - do not use mmap if neither MAP_ANON nor MAP_ANONYMOUS is defined.
71 - very experimental stack sharing algorithm. not 100% safe but
72 should work well in practise ;)
73 - added Coro::RWLock.
74 - Coro::Specific now works.
75
76 0.11 Tue Jul 24 22:49:21 CEST 2001
77 - added specialized hack for newer and older linux versions (fast).
78 - renamed Coro::Event::IO to Coro::Handle.
79 - new module Coro::Socket.
80
81 0.1 Tue Jul 24 01:47:53 CEST 2001
82 - release candidate 3. A rather new internal structure :(
83 - the great renaming: Damian Conway gave me a suitable replacement
84 for yield.
85 - added Coro/libcoro, a portable coroutine implementation for C
86 (not even perl-dependent!!!), which can be used by Coro::State.
87 - renamed SAVE_DEFSV (on xs-level only) to avoid symbol clash in
88 perl-5.6.
89 - new function Coro::Event::idle.
90 - the idle process is now overriden
91 by default in Coro::Event.
92 - Coro::Channel now enforces the size.
93 - canceling events now works in all cases.
94 - Coro state now include $_ and $@.
95 - yet another bug workaround that I do not really understand :(
96 - new module Coro::Event::IO (very undocumented) to do
97 non-blocking i/o.
98 - performance tuning.
99
100 0.08 Thu Jul 19 06:13:25 CEST 2001
101 - release candidate 2 (new functionality).
102 - add Coro::State::flush function.
103 - transfer now supports a flags value (mostly for speed ATM).
104 - might compile and work in the presence of threads now.
105 - continuations have a saner syntax.
106 - no more memleaks.
107
108 0.07 Tue Jul 17 17:40:18 CEST 2001
109 - release candidate 1 ;)
110 - slightly nicer code.
111 - fixed a scheduling bug in Coro::Event.
112
113 0.06 Tue Jul 17 04:23:24 CEST 2001
114 - ok, I found the showstopper - the same sub must not be
115 re-entered in two different coroutines, otherwise => crash. I
116 see no easy solution to this problem, except by walking the call
117 chaing and saving/restoring the cv's, which is what I do now.
118 - memory leaks still latent, especially at thread termination.
119 - Coro::Event now works (haha).
120
121 0.05 Sun Jul 15 17:32:20 CEST 2001
122 - fixed a few issues in Coro::Event.
123 - I forgot to include Coro::Event in 0.04 :(:(:(
124
125 0.04 Sun Jul 15 05:24:59 CEST 2001
126 - @_ is now properly localized.
127 - Coro::State is now easier subclassable.
128 - Coro::Cont now coroutine-aware.
129 - Coro::Specific is a low-overhead module to create
130 coroutine-specific vars.
131 - Coro::Event provides a simple interface to Event.
132
133 0.03 Fri Jul 13 14:51:52 CEST 2001
134 - transfer() now implemented in XS (beware).
135 - new module Coro::Cont for really faked continuations.
136 - big internal architecture changes: Coro::State is now
137 really low-level and can thus be used to implement other
138 interesting things, While "Coro::" implements a process-like
139 model. Still crude and subject to change.
140 - $_ and $@ are no longer being localized.
141
142 0.02 Tue Jul 10 01:38:17 CEST 2001
143 - implemented "async" attribute.
144 - $_ and $@ are now localized.
145 - added Coro::Channel.
146 - more testcases, still no docs.
147
148 0.01 Tue Jul 3 02:18:41 CEST 2001
149 - original version; copied from Convert::Scalar.
