1Revision history for Perl extension EV 1Revision history for Perl extension EV and the embedded libev library
2 2
30.5 33.2
4 - "ported" again to the Microsoft "C" language.
5 - relax testsuite timing fior the benefit of freebsd users once more.
6
73.1 Sat Mar 8 11:41:14 CET 2008
8 - add ev_sync_* and ev_fork_* to EVAPI.h.
9 - provide EV::Embed->sweep method.
10 - new watcher type: async (not very useful in perl).
11
123.0 Mon Jan 28 13:23:11 CET 2008
13 - upgrade to libev-3.0.
14 - change child handler to incorporate tracing flag.
15
162.01 Mon Dec 31 01:59:19 CET 2007
17 - found a minor problem in the testsuite that is only
18 caught by new Test::Harness versions (reported by Andreas
19 König).
20
212.0 Sat Dec 22 17:47:03 CET 2007
22 - no longer force kqueue when enabled, enable it
23 on more systems (as its now by default not used on most).
24 - expose fork watchers.
25 - switch to libev's MULTIPLICITY API.
26 - use a slightly different include file name strategy.
27 - get rid of (unused) libevent emulation.
28 - 5% watcher management speedup due to callback optimisation
29 when inline closures are used, 5% slowdown due to multiplicity.
30 - very minimal support for dynamic event loops and embed watchers.
31 - fix name of prepare start/stop methods.
32 - create and export EV::sleep and EV::set_*_collect_interval.
33 - fix typos in manpage (Alex Efros).
34
351.86 Tue Dec 18 02:36:57 CET 2007
36 - add periodic->at methods.
37
381.85 Fri Dec 14 20:32:40 CET 2007
39 - further optimise epoll backend by adding a heuristic that
40 avoids EPOLL_CTL_DEL calls if possible.
41 - EV::signal->start was not async-signal safe.
42 - optimise start/stop when the fd hasn't changed.
43
441.8 Tue Dec 11 22:17:46 CET 2007
45 - API version 3:0.
46 - reduced fudge factor to zero for select, poll, epoll
47 and kqueue: your system better be posix-compliant
48 even in its extensions :->
49 - improve long-term numerical stability in periodic watchers
50 by introducing a separate offset value instead of reusing at.
51 - recalculate real/monotonic clocks before blocking fully
52 to avoid blocking for longer than necessary.
53 - fix bugs in the heap functions. this rarely lead to illegal
54 heap orderings.
55
561.72 Sat Dec 8 15:31:26 CET 2007
57 - add dummy loop arguments to some EVAPI functions
58 so that clients can use EV_A and EV_DEFAULT.
59 - expose ev_clear_pending.
60 - renamed trigger to invoke.
61
621.71 Fri Dec 7 19:10:24 CET 2007
63 - changed/implemented idle watcher priority.
64 - allow out-of-range priorities to be set.
65 - fix ->priority to actually work on started watchers.
66 - improved testsuite.
67
681.6 Wed Dec 5 15:06:20 CET 2007
69 - add a missing SPAGAIN.
70 - ripped out EV::DNS, use EV::ADNS for a better backend.
71 - make ev_time callable from EVAPI.h.
72 - add EV::loop_count.
73 - some space optimisations.
74
751.5 Wed Nov 28 20:19:09 CET 2007
76 - add inotify backend.
77 - make testsuite even less sensible to timing issues,
78 add more stat tests.
79 - add ->attr, ->prev, ->stat calls to stat watcher.
80
811.4 Tue Nov 27 17:35:27 CET 2007
82 - work around a linux 2.4 kernel bug in child handlers.
83 - implement stat watcher interface.
84 - implement fork watcher interface.
85 - io->set did not keep the fh alive.
86 - actively check signal numbers/names to be valid.
87 - cleanups, minor fixes, new bugs.
88 - work around windows bugs in the testsuite.
89
901.3 Sun Nov 25 10:46:57 CET 2007
91 - stopping idle/check/prepare watchers could cause data corruption.
92 - implement and document EV::once.
93 - improved documentation, verify that netbsd indeed has the only
94 working kqueue implementation (out of darwin, freebsd, netbsd and
95 openbsd). Praise them!
96 - fix the data method so it might work.
97 - expose ev_ref/ev_unref to the C API.

1011.2 Thu Nov 22 05:44:09 CET 2007
102 - disable kqueue by default on !netbsd, as its broken on freebsd,
103 darwin and openbsd and thus almost everywhere.
104 - add some allowance in t/01_timer.t for the uneven monotonic
105 vs. realtime clock tick on at least freebsd.
106 - add -lsocket -lnsl on solaris in case the perl guy forgot to
107 configure them.
