1 Revision history for Perl extension EV
2
3 - reduced fudge factor to zero for select, poll, epoll
4 and kqueue: your system better be posix-compliant
5 even in its extensions :->
6 - improve long-term numerical stability in periodic watchers
7 by introducing a separate offset value instead of reusing at.
8
9 1.72 Sat Dec 8 15:31:26 CET 2007
10 - add dummy loop arguments to some EVAPI functions
11 so that clients can use EV_A and EV_DEFAULT.
12 - expose ev_clear_pending.
13 - renamed trigger to invoke.
14
15 1.71 Fri Dec 7 19:10:24 CET 2007
16 - changed/implemented idle watcher priority.
17 - allow out-of-range priorities to be set.
18 - fix ->priority to actually work on started watchers.
19 - improved testsuite.
20
21 1.6 Wed Dec 5 15:06:20 CET 2007
22 - add a missing SPAGAIN.
23 - ripped out EV::DNS, use EV::ADNS for a better backend.
24 - make ev_time callable from EVAPI.h.
25 - add EV::loop_count.
26 - some space optimisations.
27
28 1.5 Wed Nov 28 20:19:09 CET 2007
29 - add inotify backend.
30 - make testsuite even less sensible to timing issues,
31 add more stat tests.
32 - add ->attr, ->prev, ->stat calls to stat watcher.
33
34 1.4 Tue Nov 27 17:35:27 CET 2007
35 - work around a linux 2.4 kernel bug in child handlers.
36 - implement stat watcher interface.
37 - implement fork watcher interface.
38 - io->set did not keep the fh alive.
39 - actively check signal numbers/names to be valid.
40 - cleanups, minor fixes, new bugs.
41 - work around windows bugs in the testsuite.
42
43 1.3 Sun Nov 25 10:46:57 CET 2007
44 - stopping idle/check/prepare watchers could cause data corruption.
45 - implement and document EV::once.
46 - improved documentation, verify that netbsd indeed has the only
47 working kqueue implementation (out of darwin, freebsd, netbsd and
48 openbsd). Praise them!
49 - fix the data method so it might work.
50 - expose ev_ref/ev_unref to the C API.
51 - expose ref/unref in form of the ->keepalive method to perl.
52 - minor bugfixes and portability fixes.
53
54 1.2 Thu Nov 22 05:44:09 CET 2007
55 - disable kqueue by default on !netbsd, as its broken on freebsd,
56 darwin and openbsd and thus almost everywhere.
57 - add some allowance in t/01_timer.t for the uneven monotonic
58 vs. realtime clock tick on at least freebsd.
59 - add -lsocket -lnsl on solaris in case the perl guy forgot to
60 configure them.
61
62 1.1 Wed Nov 21 06:08:48 CET 2007

64 withstand small timing variations.
65 - many minor tweaks to libev.
66

69 - add solaris 10 port-based backend.
70 - add child_ns and fix check_ns.
71 - treat yes/no as enforcement, not as hint, when configuring,
72 documentation update (reported by Andy Grundman).
73
74 0.9 Wed Nov 14 22:24:49 CET 2007
75 - changed LIBEV_METHODS to LIBEV_FLAGS and the
76 way this is used inside libev.
