3 1.3
4 - properly propagate exceptions from callbacks, instead of silently
5 eating them.
6
7 1.2 Wed Aug 17 01:22:58 CEST 2005
8 - verified on cygwin, linux/amd64+ia32+alpha, solaris.
9 - use SvPVbyte for filenames now. You *need* to encode your strings to
10 the external filename encoding first.
11 - fix the bug where filehandles could leak (again).
12 - clarify freebsd situation: make it work and tell me how, or go away
13 with your underdocumented, broken and outdated OS.
14 - fork'ing should now be officially supported (where linux and
15 posix contradict each other, I followed posix).
16 - only call read() once per poll, not twice (speedup).
17 - new functions: aio_rmdir, aio_symlink.
18 - force callback arguments to be undef or a reference, for better
19 error catching.
20
21 1.1 Sun Aug 7 05:27:23 CEST 2005
22 - added configure script to detect availability of some calls.
23 (imperfect, as we cannot detect things like -lrt due to missing
24 feedback yet).
25 - emulate fdatasync via fsync, pread/pwrite via unsafe read/write
26 and readahead via manual reading on platforms lacking those.
27 - ported t/03_errors.t+framework by Brad Fitzpatrick
28 from Linux::AIO.
29 - removed XOPEN_SOURCE because stupid solaris 9 doesn't
30 compile with it enabled. Probably breaks others. Oh well.
31 - try to be more careful with errno on non-threaded perls.
32 - cygwins perl insisted on a matching open mode when morphing
33 the fd to an fh.
34 - convert sv's to "byte" encoding in aio_read/aio_write. Might
35 do that for pathnames, too, in the future, so make sure you
36 properly encode your pathnames.
37
38 1.0 Fri Jul 22 10:43:30 CEST 2005
39 - aio_open did not reliably deliver (open) filehandles.
40 - all aio_*-functions keep a reference to the filehandle so
41 it doesn't go away while the aio requests is working on it.
42 - disable warnings in AIO.pm.
43
44 0.9 Wed Jul 20 23:55:04 CEST 2005
45 - allow recursive calls to poll_cb, use less locking calls, too.
46 - fix the Gtk2-example in the SYNOPSIS.
47 - use pread/pwrite not pread64/pwrite64. this was simply a leftover
48 from Linux::AIO.
49 (found by compiling on cygwin. Unfortunately, cygwin declares but
50 does not implement pread/pwrite).
51 - only include <sys/syscall.h> on linux.
52
53 0.5 Tue Jul 12 13:03:09 CEST 2005
54 - removed #include <endian.h>, it's not portable, and we don't
55 need it anyway.
56 - link against -lrt, as it might contain goodies such as fdatasync,
57 and often aio_read, which we do not use yet, but it shouldn't hurt.
58
59 0.4 Mon Jul 11 05:28:25 CEST 2005
60 - added IO::AIO::flush, IO::AIO::poll.
61 - make callback argument optional for all calls.
62
63 0.3 Mon Jul 11 01:42:37 CEST 2005
64 - restructured manpage.
65 - added SYNOPSIS with examples for Event, Glib, Tk.
66 - remove explicit context support so I don't have to maintain
67 it for threaded perls (i.e. it should work now :).
68
69 0.2 Sun Jul 10 22:57:12 CEST 2005
70 - return immediately from poll_wait if nreqs==0.
71 - get rid of the request pipe and use faster thread-thread
72 communications for most requests and responses.
73
74 0.1
75 - cloned from Linux::AIO, which is very similar.
