# User Rev Content
1 root 1.23 Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent::Fork
2 root 1.1
3 root 1.40 TODO: pass perl path as argv0
4     TODO: keeping fork objects around after run - problems?
5 root 1.41 TODO: many forks in a row fail to fork all
6     - talk a bit about using AnyEvent::Fork itself after a fork.
7     - work around perl 5.19 again breaking backwards compatibility.
8 root 1.39 - pod fixes.
9    
10 root 1.38 1.2 Wed Sep 25 13:05:09 CEST 2013
11 root 1.35 - ->fork would not clone, but erase the arguments in the parent
12     (analyzed by Christopher Paulicka).
13 root 1.36 - mention AnyEvent::Fork::Remote, and how to be compatible to it
14     in the description of the run method.
15     - AnyEvent::Fork now sets a child watcher for direct children.
16     - clarify that one might need to set a child watcher.
17 root 1.37 - explicitly call exit on eof in children, to hide(!) win32 perl
18     bugs. at least the test suite doesn't complain anymore, but
19     the bug is doubtlessly still there.
20 root 1.35
21 root 1.34 1.1 Sun Apr 28 15:47:38 CEST 2013
22 root 1.31 - (hopefully) remove dependency on common::sense in child code.
23     - make dependency on IO::FDPass dynamic in child code.
24 root 1.34 - actually open "communications socket" for reading AND writing
25 root 1.33 in the child (this does not normally bother syswrite).
26 root 1.34 - allow perl path overriding in new_exec.
27 root 1.31
28 root 1.29 1.0 Sun Apr 21 14:05:33 CEST 2013
29 root 1.26 - implement new_from_fh and to_fh, for easy passing of
30 root 1.28 fork objects among processes (EXPERIMENTAL!).
31 root 1.26 - sabotage the fork object on run or to_fh.
32 root 1.27 - expliticly call exit in child server - not elegant, but
33     doesn't disturb any sane perl, and helps broken win32 perls
34     to clean up.
35 root 1.28 - the write watcher wasn't disabled on write errors.
36 root 1.26
37 root 1.25 0.7 Thu Apr 18 22:16:26 CEST 2013
38 root 1.22 - only set SIGCHLD to IGNORE while serving requests, reset
39     it to the previous value after ->run.
40 root 1.25 - minor docpatches.
41     - mention AnyEvent::Fork::RPC, but not yte AnyEvent::Fork::Pool.
42 root 1.22
43 root 1.21 0.6 Sun Apr 7 00:41:30 CEST 2013
44     - this release mostly updates the documentation.
45 root 1.19 - add fork+exec replacement example to SYNOPSIS.
46     - clarify some eval and run documentation.
47 root 1.20 - defuse the documentation a bit - split synopsis into
48     an example section, and rewor the problem statement.
49 root 1.19
50 root 1.16 0.5 Sat Apr 6 05:30:03 CEST 2013
51 root 1.13 - set $SIG{CHLD} to IGNORE in processes forked to avoid
52     accumulating zombies.
53 root 1.15 - added "typical problems" section.
54 root 1.14 - add some unscientific benchmark numbers to indicate relative
55 root 1.13 performance.
56 root 1.14 - post-benchmark socket writing optimisations :) (fewer syscalls,
57     do more than one write per event loop iteration).
58 root 1.13
59 root 1.12 0.2 Fri Apr 5 21:07:59 CEST 2013
60 root 1.9 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Fork::Template no longer exports
61 root 1.10 anything and has renamed the variable.
62 root 1.7 - do not leak the internal watcher as return value from run.
63 root 1.9 - set $0 to run function name, tune existing $0 names as well.
64 root 1.10 - work around a bug in openbsd file descriptor passing on at least
65     4.5 and 4.8. might introduce a security problem on that platform.
66 root 1.11 - switch to the new IO::FDPass module, which also fixes a bug
67     with setting non-blocking mode and gives other improvements.
68 root 1.18 - no longer an XS module.
69 root 1.7
70 root 1.6 0.01 Thu Apr 4 09:23:33 CEST 2013
71     - "technology preview".
72    
73     0.00 Fri Mar 29 02:15:20 CET 2013
74 root 1.1 - post planning, pre writing.
