1 Revision history for Perl extension Coro.
2
3 0.6 Thu Nov 21 11:09:06 CET 2002
4 - made lazy context switching the default.
5 - fixed the bug where SemaphoreSet::guard
6 was the same as timed_guard and timed_guard was missing.
7 - fix a memleak in Coro::Timer.
8 - reclassified context sharing as not experimental.
9
10 0.534 Sun Apr 14 03:05:12 CEST 2002
11 - fixed backspace => tab in header parsing (myhttpd).
12 - added eg/readline, for elmex.
13 - Coro::Event now calls ->start on first call instead of
14 ->again, which created wrong timeouts for the first ->next.
15 - fixed a bug where Coro::Socket returned a closed socket instead
16 of nothing on ECONNREFUSED and similar error conditions.
17
18 0.533 Mon Feb 18 18:49:40 CET 2002
19 - adapt to finally working Event-0.85.
20 - fixed buggy event initialization (trapped under windows, but how
21 could it possibly have worked anywhere?)
22
23 0.532 Wed Jan 16 02:45:32 CET 2002
24 - removed the reference to pp_entersub, might work on
25 (some) win32 perls now (testsuite works under cygwin,
26 without Event, which freezes).
27
28 0.531 Mon Dec 10 22:18:44 CET 2001
29 - Fixed a bug in SemaphoreSet::timed_down.
30
31 0.53 Tue Nov 27 21:11:13 CET 2001
32 - some tests for Event.
33 - slightly different internal architecture to get refcnt into the object
34 and not the reference. might fix a few bugs, certainly did introduce
35 new ones.
36 - Coro::Timer (independent of Event).
37 - new timed_wait functions for Coro::Signal, Semaphore, SemaphoreSet.
38
39 0.52 Tue Nov 6 21:36:18 CET 2001
40 - ported to cygwin (trivial).
41 patch by Gerrit P. Haase <gp@familiehaase.de>.
42 - small setjmp code fix by Sullivan.DanielJ@epamail.epa.gov.
43
44 0.51 Thu Nov 1 20:39:01 CET 2001
45 - terminate/cancel now work properly (otherwise termination
46 could cause a "next coroutine is not and contains not..."
47 error.
48 - added Coro::Socket::shutdown.
49 - Coro::Event::loop no is the same as Event::loop.
50 - implemented terminate with args + join.
51
52 0.5 Fri Sep 28 16:15:35 CEST 2001
53 - fixed "print" on a Coro::Handle. The print method worked.
54 - small tweaks (seem to reduce memory consumption a lot)
55 in various modules.
56 - splendid use of "no warnings" scattered throughout.
57 - added Coro::Handle::rbuf, fixed Coro::Handle::fh.
58
59 0.49 Sun Sep 16 02:42:45 CEST 2001
60 - changed some method calls to function calls for speed
61 inside Coro::Handle.
62 - make Coro::Handle use an array instead of a hash for
63 speed reasons.
64 - IRIX mystery solved: it's SGI's NT, after all: "standard, huh?".
65 sjlj and ucontext should now work.
66 - IRIX-specific port for libcoro.
67 - swapped order of accept results to match IO::Socket.
68 - changed getsock/peername to sock/peername to match IO::Socket.
69 - fixed a bug that caused segfault when returning to main task
70 under some circumstances.
71 - other bugfixes.
72
73 0.45 Sun Sep 2 02:54:01 CEST 2001
74 - new method Coro::Handle::timeout.
75 - corrected speling of set...name to get...name in Coro::Socket.
76 - Coro::Socket::accept now returns a Coro::Socket, not a Coro::Handle.
77 - Coro::Handle now supports fileno and FILENO.
78 - added eg/myhttpd, a web server.
79 - Coro::Socket now accepts numeric ports as well as "port(number)"
80 syntax.
81 - moved some scheduling primitives into xs code. more to come.
82 - new simple priority system.
83 - implemented Coro::Event using XS, almost four times faster!
84 - small memory corruption problem fixed (boy that was difficult).
85
86 0.13 Wed Aug 8 16:53:07 CEST 2001
87 - new method Coro::Handle::readline.
88 - added eg/lwp and Coro::Handle::autoflush, to make LWP work.
89 (see eg/lwp on how to make LWP non-blocking).
90 - renamed Coro::Socket::new_inet to new.
91 - added Coro::Util, some utility functions.
92 - die/eval now works better (still get annoying (but true ;)
93 "Callback called exit" messages).
94 - Coro::Handle now supports timeout, and Coro::Socket Timeout.
95 - much better Coro::Socket support.
96
97 0.12 Fri Jul 27 04:19:01 CEST 2001
98 - do not use mmap if neither MAP_ANON nor MAP_ANONYMOUS is defined.
99 - very experimental stack sharing algorithm. not 100% safe but
100 should work well in practise ;)
101 - added Coro::RWLock.
102 - Coro::Specific now works.
103
104 0.11 Tue Jul 24 22:49:21 CEST 2001
105 - added specialized hack for newer and older linux versions (fast).
106 - renamed Coro::Event::IO to Coro::Handle.
107 - new module Coro::Socket.
108
109 0.1 Tue Jul 24 01:47:53 CEST 2001
110 - release candidate 3. A rather new internal structure :(
111 - the great renaming: Damian Conway gave me a suitable replacement
112 for yield.
113 - added Coro/libcoro, a portable coroutine implementation for C
114 (not even perl-dependent!!!), which can be used by Coro::State.
115 - renamed SAVE_DEFSV (on xs-level only) to avoid symbol clash in
116 perl-5.6.
117 - new function Coro::Event::idle.
118 - the idle process is now overriden
119 by default in Coro::Event.
120 - Coro::Channel now enforces the size.
121 - canceling events now works in all cases.
122 - Coro state now include $_ and $@.
123 - yet another bug workaround that I do not really understand :(
124 - new module Coro::Event::IO (very undocumented) to do
125 non-blocking i/o.
126 - performance tuning.
127
128 0.08 Thu Jul 19 06:13:25 CEST 2001
129 - release candidate 2 (new functionality).
130 - add Coro::State::flush function.
131 - transfer now supports a flags value (mostly for speed ATM).
132 - might compile and work in the presence of threads now.
133 - continuations have a saner syntax.
134 - no more memleaks.
135
136 0.07 Tue Jul 17 17:40:18 CEST 2001
137 - release candidate 1 ;)
138 - slightly nicer code.
139 - fixed a scheduling bug in Coro::Event.
140
141 0.06 Tue Jul 17 04:23:24 CEST 2001
142 - ok, I found the showstopper - the same sub must not be
143 re-entered in two different coroutines, otherwise => crash. I
144 see no easy solution to this problem, except by walking the call
145 chaing and saving/restoring the cv's, which is what I do now.
146 - memory leaks still latent, especially at thread termination.
147 - Coro::Event now works (haha).
148
149 0.05 Sun Jul 15 17:32:20 CEST 2001
150 - fixed a few issues in Coro::Event.
151 - I forgot to include Coro::Event in 0.04 :(:(:(
152
153 0.04 Sun Jul 15 05:24:59 CEST 2001
154 - @_ is now properly localized.
155 - Coro::State is now easier subclassable.
156 - Coro::Cont now coroutine-aware.
157 - Coro::Specific is a low-overhead module to create
158 coroutine-specific vars.
159 - Coro::Event provides a simple interface to Event.
160
161 0.03 Fri Jul 13 14:51:52 CEST 2001
162 - transfer() now implemented in XS (beware).
163 - new module Coro::Cont for really faked continuations.
164 - big internal architecture changes: Coro::State is now
165 really low-level and can thus be used to implement other
166 interesting things, While "Coro::" implements a process-like
167 model. Still crude and subject to change.
168 - $_ and $@ are no longer being localized.
169
170 0.02 Tue Jul 10 01:38:17 CEST 2001
171 - implemented "async" attribute.
172 - $_ and $@ are now localized.
173 - added Coro::Channel.
174 - more testcases, still no docs.
175
176 0.01 Tue Jul 3 02:18:41 CEST 2001
177 - original version; copied from Convert::Scalar.
178
