3 1.2
4 - fix another bug where filehandles could leak.
5 - use SvPVbyte for filenames now. You *need* to encode your strings to
6 the external filename encoding first.
7 - clarify freebsd situation: make it work and tell me how, or go away
8 with your underdocumented, broken and outdated OS.
9 - fork'ing should now be officially supported (where linux and
10 posix contradict each other, I followed posix).
11 - only call read() once per poll, not twice.
12 - add aio_rmdir, aio_symlink.
13 - force callback arguments to be undef or a reference, for better
14 error catching.
15
16 1.1 Sun Aug 7 05:27:23 CEST 2005
17 - added configure script to detect availability of some calls.
18 (imperfect, as we cannot detect things like -lrt due to missing
19 feedback yet).
20 - emulate fdatasync via fsync, pread/pwrite via unsafe read/write
21 and readahead via manual reading on platforms lacking those.
22 - ported t/03_errors.t+framework by Brad Fitzpatrick
23 from Linux::AIO.
24 - removed XOPEN_SOURCE because stupid solaris 9 doesn't
25 compile with it enabled. Probably breaks others. Oh well.
26 - try to be more careful with errno on non-threaded perls.
27 - cygwins perl insisted on a matching open mode when morphing
28 the fd to an fh.
29 - convert sv's to "byte" encoding in aio_read/aio_write. Might
30 do that for pathnames, too, in the future, so make sure you
31 properly encode your pathnames.
32
33 1.0 Fri Jul 22 10:43:30 CEST 2005
34 - aio_open did not reliably deliver (open) filehandles.
35 - all aio_*-functions keep a reference to the filehandle so
36 it doesn't go away while the aio requests is working on it.
37 - disable warnings in AIO.pm.
38
39 0.9 Wed Jul 20 23:55:04 CEST 2005
40 - allow recursive calls to poll_cb, use less locking calls, too.
41 - fix the Gtk2-example in the SYNOPSIS.
42 - use pread/pwrite not pread64/pwrite64. this was simply a leftover
43 from Linux::AIO.
44 (found by compiling on cygwin. Unfortunately, cygwin declares but
45 does not implement pread/pwrite).
46 - only include <sys/syscall.h> on linux.
47
48 0.5 Tue Jul 12 13:03:09 CEST 2005
49 - removed #include <endian.h>, it's not portable, and we don't
50 need it anyway.
51 - link against -lrt, as it might contain goodies such as fdatasync,
52 and often aio_read, which we do not use yet, but it shouldn't hurt.
53
54 0.4 Mon Jul 11 05:28:25 CEST 2005
55 - added IO::AIO::flush, IO::AIO::poll.
56 - make callback argument optional for all calls.
57
58 0.3 Mon Jul 11 01:42:37 CEST 2005
59 - restructured manpage.
60 - added SYNOPSIS with examples for Event, Glib, Tk.
61 - remove explicit context support so I don't have to maintain
62 it for threaded perls (i.e. it should work now :).
63
64 0.2 Sun Jul 10 22:57:12 CEST 2005
65 - return immediately from poll_wait if nreqs==0.
66 - get rid of the request pipe and use faster thread-thread
67 communications for most requests and responses.
68
69 0.1
70 - cloned from Linux::AIO, which is very similar.
