4 - properly propagate exceptions from callbacks, instead of silently
5 eating them.
6 - forking while in an atfork handler is now supported, although
7 I am pretty sure some pthread implementations will barf - don't
8 fork in an AIO callback if that is a concern for you.

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16 with your underdocumented, broken and outdated OS.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

6 - restructured manpage. 67 - restructured manpage.
7 - added SYNOPSIS with examples for Event, Glib, Tk. 68 - added SYNOPSIS with examples for Event, Glib, Tk.
8 - remove explicit context support so I don't have to maintain 69 - remove explicit context support so I don't have to maintain
