Revision history for Perl extension AnyEvent. |
2 |
|
3 |
TODO: document TCP_*** constants |
4 |
TODO: add debug/trace logging to some modules |
5 |
|
6 |
- Tk cannot create windows when tainted unless you set a title, so |
7 |
set a dummy title for AnyEvent's dummy mainwindow. How dummy. |
8 |
- escape any nonprintable/nonascii characters when stringifying |
9 |
backtraces. |
10 |
- log the reason loading an interface module fails to load at level debug. |
11 |
|
12 |
6.1 Tue Oct 4 19:44:30 CEST 2011 |
13 |
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the default log level is now "4" (error |
14 |
and above), and some messages inside AnyEvent have been elevated |
15 |
to higher log levels to print by default. |
16 |
- AnyEvent::log, unlike AnyEvent::Log::log, did not always exit on fatal. |
17 |
- work around yet another signal race bug, newly introduced by POE. My |
18 |
how that module sucks. |
19 |
- add google public ipv6 dns as fallback servers, so AE::DNS can finally |
20 |
support ipv6-only operation even with defaults (also use ::1 instead |
21 |
of 127.0.0.1). |
22 |
- give better guidelines on how to chose a logging level. |
23 |
- AnyEvent::Log can now cap (limit) log message priority by context. |
24 |
- AE::log will now save and restore $! and $@, so callers don't have to. |
25 |
- AE::Strict now checks that registered fds are still valid at regular |
26 |
intervals. |
27 |
- skip frequently called 'require' calls if the module appears loaded. |
28 |
- increase signal latency test timer considerably for poor little osx, |
29 |
which can't be bothered with basic posix functionality such as signal |
30 |
delivery. |
31 |
- mention some debugging aids in the tutorial. |
32 |
- new env variable PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY. |
33 |
- private (%namespace) log contexts in PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG now have the name |
34 |
of the context as title. |
35 |
- AnyEvent::Strict would not restore read-write access to $_ when a callback |
36 |
died - this is a user bug, but since AE::Strict exists to help dbeugging... |
37 |
- detect the extremely evil IO::Async::Loop::AnyEvent module and refuse |
38 |
to work with it - the author is well aware of the issues but refuses |
39 |
to fix them. This extreme step has been taken because the module actively |
40 |
attacks the goals of AnyEvent and makes it harder for module authors to use |
41 |
AnyEvent. |
42 |
|
43 |
6.02 Fri Aug 26 20:08:31 CEST 2011 |
44 |
- log_to_syslog now accepts facility strings. |
45 |
- log_to_syslog would not allow facilities - "$facility|$level" |
46 |
*literally* means that string. sheesh. |
47 |
- the CPAN parser got confused and thought we provide Sys::Syslog, try |
48 |
to work around. |
49 |
- renamed AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2 to FLTK. |
50 |
|
51 |
6.01 Fri Aug 26 07:04:11 CEST 2011 |
52 |
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::DNS resource records now include |
53 |
the TTL as fourth element - this affects ->resolve, ->request |
54 |
and ->dns_unpack indirectly. Convenience functions such as |
55 |
AnyEvent::DNS::{a,txt,mx,srv} are not affected, neither is |
56 |
AnyEvent::Socket. |
57 |
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: backend authors now should not implement |
58 |
one_event or loop, but instead the AnyEvent::CondVar::_wait and _poll |
59 |
methods. |
60 |
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: verbosity levels have been redefined, see |
61 |
AnyEvent (PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE) and AnyEvent::Log for details. |
62 |
- DEPRECIATION: please change |
63 |
"use AnyEvent::Impl::Perl" to "use AnyEvent::Loop" and |
64 |
"AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop" to "AnyEvent::Loop::run" |
65 |
in your programs, for future compatibility. |
66 |
- *blush* idle watcher emulation was borked. |
67 |
- AnyEvent::Strict now checks the AE::xxx functions as well. |
68 |
- querying too long domain names would barf deep inside AnyEvent::DNS - since |
69 |
this is hard to avoid for applications, AnyEvent:.DNS::request now checks for |
70 |
for too long domain names explicitly and passes an undef to the callback |
71 |
instead (reported by James Bromberger). |
72 |
- make AnyEvent::Util more robust against EINTR (analyzed by Andrew Suffield). |
73 |
- new functions: AnyEvent::postpone, AnyEvent::log. |
74 |
- new module: AnyEvent::Log, for simple logging needs. |
75 |
- new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG, for fine-grained logging config. |
76 |
- new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_SHELL, to automatically start |
77 |
a debug shell. |
78 |
- new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_WRAP, to automatically enable |
79 |
watcher instrumentation/wrapping (see AnyEvent::Debug::wrap). |
80 |
- new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_HOSTS, to override the place where |
81 |
/etc/hosts can be found. |
82 |
- an empty PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF now selects the default |
83 |
configuration. |
84 |
- env variables can now be specified using AE_xyz instead of |
85 |
PERL_ANYEVENT_xyz, subject to some rules. |
86 |
- lots of new AnyEvent::Debug functionality. |
87 |
- AnyEvent::Strict now checks for modifications $_ by the callback |
88 |
(by setting it to readonly while executing the callback, if possible). |
89 |
- IO::Async sometimes cancels the wrong timer when you call cancel_timer. |
90 |
Invest extra overhead to work around this peculiar behaviour. |
91 |
- split the pure perl backend into a loop module and an impl |
92 |
module (AnyEvent::Loop and AnyEvent::Impl::Perl). |
93 |
- some read types (regex, netstring, json, storable) could |
94 |
errornously keep an AE::Handle object alive on their own |
95 |
(reported by Mohammad Toossi). |
96 |
- AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr and all functions using it now |
97 |
supports /etc/hosts overrides. |
98 |
- add more workarounds around child watcher bugs in IO::Async |
99 |
and (newly introduced) in POE. |
100 |
- use glib child watchers and try to work around its limitations, |
101 |
if possible (based on a patch by Kevin Ryde). |
102 |
- add support for FLTK (fltk2), via AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2. |
103 |
- many read types in AnyEvent::Handle would malfunction during |
104 |
transitions to TLS because of a "delete $self->{rbuf}". |
105 |
(reported by Gerald Galster). |
106 |
- improve condvar blocking wait performance (probably only noticable |
107 |
with faster backends), also make it easier for event loops that |
108 |
do not support blocking waits. |
109 |
- PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL now also allows full module names, although |
110 |
the usefulness of this feature is not yet clear. |
111 |
- add tests for all supported event loops, conditional on PERL_ANYEVENT_LOOP_TESTS. |
112 |
- add t/80_ssltext.t. |
113 |
- no longer use AUTOLOAD for the initial loading (for no very good reason). |
114 |
- tcp_server now tries to unlink unix domain sockets when it gets destroyed. |
115 |
- do not run event loop detection multiple times when programs call their cached |
116 |
copies of AnyEvent::detect. |
117 |
- parse_hostport now accepts absolute paths als unix domain sockets. |
118 |
- suppress the idiotic warning inside POE by patching the POE::Kernel |
119 |
run flags instead of asking the user to jump through contortions. |
120 |
- add Task::Weaken as dependency (as recommends only at this time). |
121 |
- replace PF_UNSPEC by 0, for good old minix. |
122 |
|
123 |
6.0 (not officially released, but was on CPAN for about 15 minutes :/) |
124 |
|
125 |
5.34 Thu May 12 09:59:41 CEST 2011 |
126 |
- AE::TLS didn't support both cert_file and key at the same time, |
127 |
due to some copy&paste bug (reported and analyzed by vti). |
128 |
- improve AE::Handle timeout documentation slightly. |
129 |
|
130 |
5.33 Mon Feb 7 21:51:41 CET 2011 |
131 |
- never appeared on CPAN, for unknown reasons. |
132 |
- AnyEvent::Handle on_connect_error - do not try to destroy a handle |
133 |
object when it's already gone (analyzed by Ryan Bullock). |
134 |
- update idna algorithm(s) to UTS#46 version 6.0.0. |
135 |
- preserve trailing dot in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to preserve, |
136 |
uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense. |
137 |
- remove leading dots in idn_to_ascii - testsuite says to remove, |
138 |
uts46 says it's an error, and testsuite makes more sense. |
139 |
- fixed a bug in idn ignored character processing. |
140 |
- passes the uts46 6.0.0 testsuite except for three cases which |
141 |
apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself. |
142 |
- passes the uts46 6.0.1 testsuite except for eleven cases which |
143 |
apparently are bugs in the testsuite itself. |
144 |
|
145 |
5.31 Sun Jan 23 11:49:19 CET 2011 |
146 |
- work around a POE bug where POE would first poll for new events and |
147 |
invoke handlers BEFORE handling the message queue. |
148 |
- fix parsing of "domain" statement in resolv.conf (Johannes Plunien). |
149 |
- stop_read now does just that in TLS mode. see its |
150 |
documentation for caveats. |
151 |
- update to common::sense 3.4 warning set (some warnings in perl impose |
152 |
an arbitrary 32kb limit on regex matches, which affects |
153 |
AnyEvent::Handle). |
154 |
- AE::Handle had a broken rbuf_max method and missing wbuf_max method. |
155 |
- new experimental AE::Handle::resettls method. |
156 |
|
157 |
5.3 Fri Dec 31 05:48:13 CET 2010 |
158 |
- major IOAsync patch by Paul Evans - 0.33 is required, as the major |
159 |
issues with IO::Async have been solved in that version, including |
160 |
the availabilty of a default loop! |
161 |
- implement new wbuf_max parameter for AnyEvent::Handle. |
162 |
- added Cocoa::EventLoop backend by Daisuke Murase. |
163 |
- the default testsuite now honors PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL (Paul Evans). |
164 |
- clarify handle on_prepare documentation. |
165 |
- set CLOEXEC flag on parent-side fd's in AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd, |
166 |
to avoid leaking them to any child processes. |
167 |
- try to force files into the arch-dependend lib directory, for the |
168 |
half-"turly obsessive compulsive person"(s) that depend on it. |
169 |
|
170 |
5.29 Sun Dec 5 10:49:21 CET 2010 |
171 |
- convert EV backend to EV 4.00 API (so better upgrade EV too). |
172 |
- AE::Handle: implement dynamic read_size adjustment, add |
173 |
max_read_size parameter, reduce default read_size to 2048. |
174 |
- add some FAQ entries for servers and/or on_eof vs. on_error. |
175 |
- work around OS bugs (cygwin again) when lingering in AE::Handle. |
176 |
- reduce memory usage slightly when connect was used in AE::Handle. |
177 |
- wrok around more segfaults in Tk. |
178 |
- document tls_ctx => undef as valid. |
179 |
- detect WNOHANG value at compiletime. |
180 |
- include some probably linux-only support for building AnyEvent |
181 |
as part of the perl core. |
182 |
- improve compatibility of t/08_idna.t to perl 5.8. |
183 |
- make AnyEvent::Strict truly optional (in case somebody builds a |
184 |
minimal perl...). |
185 |
|
186 |
5.28 Wed Oct 13 04:14:23 CEST 2010 |
187 |
- due to a glitch, AnyEvent's internal getprotobyname wasn't |
188 |
actually used in tcp_server. |
189 |
- implement AnyEvent::CondVar->new method, which was documented but |
190 |
missing. |
191 |
- support autoloading of read types in unshift_read. |
192 |
- AnyEvent::Strict: do the test for invalid fh arguments differently, |
193 |
resulting in more informative error messages. |
194 |
- new AnyEvent::FAQ manpage. |
195 |
- clarify that you can actually call push_read etc. in on_read. |
196 |
- put keys and certs in /tmp, not into the current directory, |
197 |
and document this in the SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS sections |
198 |
of AnyEvent::TLS. |
199 |
- support ";" as resolv.conf comment character in AnyEvent::DNS, as |
200 |
requested by Ron Isaacson. |
201 |
- document $AnyEvent::DNS::RESOLVER variable. |
202 |
- incorporated major typo patches by Abhijit Menon-Sen. |
203 |
- AnyEvent::Handle now croaks when negative timeouts are passed. |
204 |
- add a shitload of TCP_xxx sockopt name constants to AnyEvent::Util, |
205 |
undocumented, but who knows when they might come in handy. |
206 |
|
207 |
5.271 Tue Jun 8 12:05:46 CEST 2010 |
208 |
- backport to perl 5.8.x. |
209 |
|
210 |
5.27 Sun Jun 6 12:12:05 CEST 2010 |
211 |
- postpone differently in AnyEvent::Socket now, as |
212 |
when not, canceling the connection attempt might fail |
213 |
(found by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann). |
214 |
- explicitly check for non-stream sockets in AE::Handle, too many |
215 |
clueless people fell into the trap of this somehow working. |
216 |
- simplified and reworked the "OTHER MODULES" section. |
217 |
- better/more condvar examples. |
218 |
|
219 |
5.261 Wed Apr 28 16:13:36 CEST 2010 |
220 |
- AF_INET6 was not properly used from Socket6 during configuration |
221 |
time (found by Andy Grundman). |
222 |
|
223 |
5.26 Mon Apr 12 04:49:35 CEST 2010 |
224 |
- don't generate spurious readyness notifications when select |
225 |
returns EINTR in the pure perl backend (analysed and testcase |
226 |
by Bas Denissen). |
227 |
- give same examples in SYNOPSIS sections of AnyEvent and AE. |
228 |
- provider faster implementations for AE::time/now/now_update for |
229 |
EV and Perl backends. |
230 |
- provide faster AE::cv and AE::time implementations for all |
231 |
backends. |
232 |
- no longer support lower/mixed-case signal names (this was |
233 |
never documented nor universally supported). |
234 |
- some more memory µ-optimisations, and somewhat less messy |
235 |
code to cope with both AnyEvent and AE APIs. |
236 |
|
237 |
5.251 Sat Mar 13 00:58:21 CET 2010 |
238 |
- make test failed if it was run before make install on perl <= |
239 |
5.8.8, and older versions of perl make our live very difficult, |
240 |
so write constants.pl during Makefile.PL time. |
241 |
|
242 |
5.25 Sat Mar 13 00:23:14 CET 2010 |
243 |
- fix a race condition in AnyEvent::Handle that would cause |
244 |
a "bio_read: unsupported method" error (in _another_ |
245 |
ssl connection) after user code threw an exception. |
246 |
- added AnyEvent::Handle->destroyed method. |
247 |
- speed up AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and ::format_ipv6. |
248 |
- the AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking function worked only |
249 |
by lucky accident on win32. |
250 |
- smaller and faster AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking. |
251 |
- when the (required!) Time::HiRes module is missing, AnyEvent |
252 |
did not fall back to built-in time properly. |
253 |
- do not load Fcntl at runtime, saving memory and loading time. |
254 |
- precompile a number of constants and use them instead of runtime |
255 |
detection and eval. |
256 |
- free detection code after detection and similar memory optimisations. |
257 |
- Perl backend timer interval best effort drift has been improved |
258 |
(same algorithm as EV). |
259 |
- update unicode idna mapping table. |
260 |
|
261 |
5.24 Tue Jan 5 11:39:43 CET 2010 |
262 |
- cygwin never reports errors from failed connects. 1.5 just gives |
263 |
you continous readyness and EAGAIN, 1.7 is even more broken and |
264 |
just hangs. work around both issues in a cygwin-specific hack. |
265 |
- improve idle watcher documentation slightly. |
266 |
|
267 |
5.23 Sun Dec 20 23:48:00 CET 2009 |
268 |
- support IDNs in resolve_sockaddr, and therefore in tcp_connect. |
269 |
- implement punycode_encode/decode, idn_nameprep, |
270 |
idn_to_ascii and idn_to_unicode operations in AnyEvent::Util. |
271 |
- provide $AE::VERSION. |
272 |
- removed traces of "no strict 'refs'". |
273 |
|
274 |
5.22 Sat Dec 5 03:51:13 CET 2009 |
275 |
- downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to |
276 |
diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly. |
277 |
(this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info |
278 |
when passing scalar data to extensions). |
279 |
- add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage. |
280 |
- upgrade internal warning set to the same as common::sense 2.03. |
281 |
- use pack "n/a*" for pre-5.8.9 perl compatibility in AnyEvent::DNS |
282 |
(John Beppu). |
283 |
- AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton now properly supports ipv6, as documented. |
284 |
- add google public dns servers to fallback server set and make sure |
285 |
we load-balance properly between the three sets. also add all |
286 |
fallback dns servers, not just a random one, to each dns config. |
287 |
|
288 |
5.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009 |
289 |
- fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters |
290 |
(spotted by David Friedland). |
291 |
- fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki). |
292 |
- improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work |
293 |
unless you rip out everything but the core). |
294 |
- prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32. |
295 |
uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*. |
296 |
|
297 |
5.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009 |
298 |
- AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows |
299 |
(analysed by Matthias Waldorf). |
300 |
- AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the |
301 |
newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might |
302 |
sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve). |
303 |
|
304 |
5.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009 |
305 |
- AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken |
306 |
(reported by Torsten Foertsch). |
307 |
- common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception |
308 |
(analysed by elmex). |
309 |
|
310 |
5.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009 |
311 |
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type |
312 |
and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support |
313 |
package names (the facility was mostly abused). |
314 |
- implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in |
315 |
AnyEvent::Handle. |
316 |
- AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline". |
317 |
- oobinline set by default to avoid security issues. |
318 |
- the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback |
319 |
support (spotted by Pavel Boldin). |
320 |
|
321 |
5.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009 |
322 |
- be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people |
323 |
use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported |
324 |
by Michael S. Fischer). |
325 |
- use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0. |
326 |
- fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems |
327 |
with large hex constants in the Perl backend. |
328 |
- do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS |
329 |
by default. |
330 |
- fix some prototypes. |
331 |
- (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02. |
332 |
- replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers. |
333 |
|
334 |
5.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009 |
335 |
- AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when |
336 |
using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context. |
337 |
- port to broken win32 perls. |
338 |
|
339 |
5.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009 |
340 |
- perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the |
341 |
kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding |
342 |
sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses |
343 |
the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other |
344 |
OSes as well). |
345 |
|
346 |
5.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009 |
347 |
- fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename. |
348 |
- create a json coder object when none is given in write direction |
349 |
to reduce dependency on JSON. |
350 |
|
351 |
5.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009 |
352 |
- tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated |
353 |
one (was broken since 4.91). |
354 |
- AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers |
355 |
when retrying a tcp_connect. |
356 |
- new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except. |
357 |
- fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket. |
358 |
|
359 |
5.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009 |
360 |
- last release broke EV child watchers :/. |
361 |
|
362 |
5.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009 |
363 |
- officially introduce and document the AE API. |
364 |
- lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect |
365 |
in AnyEvent::Handle. |
366 |
- AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout |
367 |
settings. |
368 |
- probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at |
369 |
runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids |
370 |
exporting the probe function). |
371 |
- Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation |
372 |
code to work around it's watcher limits. |
373 |
- work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects. |
374 |
- try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy. |
375 |
- do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy. |
376 |
- hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend. |
377 |
- inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules. |
378 |
|
379 |
4.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009 |
380 |
- AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer |
381 |
already contains some TLS handshake. |
382 |
- AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger |
383 |
memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster). |
384 |
- AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking |
385 |
the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback. |
386 |
- convert many internal watcher uses to AE API. |
387 |
|
388 |
4.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009 |
389 |
- Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with |
390 |
a negative value, so avoid that. |
391 |
- call condvar callback immediately when it is set |
392 |
after the condition is already signalled. |
393 |
- check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume |
394 |
data. |
395 |
- normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's |
396 |
signal handling, but do not document this (yet). |
397 |
- pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking |
398 |
mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused |
399 |
any issues). |
400 |
- new module: AnyEvent::Debug. |
401 |
- AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified |
402 |
by name (not name or number). |
403 |
- reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by |
404 |
only compiling signal code when necessary. |
405 |
- add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max. |
406 |
- grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for |
407 |
said future/alternative API. |
408 |
- new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport. |
409 |
|
410 |
4.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009 |
411 |
- work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing |
412 |
AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not |
413 |
(analysed by elmex). |
414 |
|
415 |
4.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009 |
416 |
- re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling |
417 |
AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check |
418 |
for errors after every push_write etc. |
419 |
- do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken |
420 |
platforms. |
421 |
|
422 |
4.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009 |
423 |
- do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh. |
424 |
- enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply |
425 |
segfault in Net::SSLeay. |
426 |
- AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters |
427 |
connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated |
428 |
tutorial accordingly. |
429 |
- add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend. |
430 |
|
431 |
4.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009 |
432 |
- since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document |
433 |
that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure. |
434 |
- work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib. |
435 |
- try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries. |
436 |
- work around Tk not liking negative timeouts. |
437 |
- don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness |
438 |
in IO::Async. |
439 |
|
440 |
4.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009 |
441 |
- nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all |
442 |
(see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY). |
443 |
- take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available. |
444 |
- load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only. |
445 |
- add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent |
446 |
documentation. |
447 |
- reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty) |
448 |
by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules. |
449 |
- work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG |
450 |
and EPROTO ourselves when missing. |
451 |
- improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop. |
452 |
- made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement. |
453 |
|
454 |
4.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009 |
455 |
- implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname. |
456 |
- AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking |
457 |
waits and will croak, as too many people fall into |
458 |
this trap. |
459 |
- AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after |
460 |
executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some |
461 |
half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors. |
462 |
- clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and |
463 |
on_read callbacks. |
464 |
- ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect. |
465 |
|
466 |
4.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009 |
467 |
- POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as |
468 |
callbacks. |
469 |
- use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names |
470 |
in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX |
471 |
module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/. |
472 |
- use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in |
473 |
Event::Lib. |
474 |
- work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t |
475 |
to rarely fail. |
476 |
|
477 |
4.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009 |
478 |
- AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors |
479 |
(it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :). |
480 |
- support file descriptors in addition to file handles |
481 |
in AnyEvent->io. |
482 |
- new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF, |
483 |
PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE |
484 |
and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH. |
485 |
- provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS. |
486 |
- add a "supported backends" section to the manpage. |
487 |
- added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a |
488 |
portable_socketpair. |
489 |
- tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend, |
490 |
YMMV. |
491 |
|
492 |
4.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009 |
493 |
- AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with |
494 |
uppercase targets. |
495 |
- AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records |
496 |
with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses, |
497 |
causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception. |
498 |
- added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context |
499 |
creation, with many options including hostname verification, |
500 |
secure default configuration, lots of documentation and, |
501 |
predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security |
502 |
and much more. get it while it's still fresh! |
503 |
- use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management. |
504 |
- load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS, |
505 |
so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint |
506 |
in the common case. |
507 |
- add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method. |
508 |
- add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's |
509 |
on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available). |
510 |
- add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks. |
511 |
- make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction |
512 |
failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case |
513 |
from the constructor. |
514 |
- AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first, |
515 |
then fall back to JSON. |
516 |
- format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry, |
517 |
and because it was documented that way. |
518 |
|
519 |
4.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009 |
520 |
- do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle |
521 |
object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP. |
522 |
|
523 |
4.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009 |
524 |
- a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create |
525 |
an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh. |
526 |
- special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both |
527 |
AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address, |
528 |
to treat them just like ipv4 addresses. |
529 |
- updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc. |
530 |
- implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6. |
531 |
- slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair. |
532 |
- expand condvar begin/end documentation. |
533 |
|
534 |
4.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009 |
535 |
- preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async. |
536 |
- reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in |
537 |
case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses |
538 |
even when the calling env acts stupidly. |
539 |
- updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well. |
540 |
|
541 |
4.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009 |
542 |
- support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS |
543 |
and set it on the default resolver. |
544 |
- implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop. |
545 |
- remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV |
546 |
when running in tainted mode. |
547 |
- mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark. |
548 |
|
549 |
4.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009 |
550 |
- do not try to use F_SETFD on windows. |
551 |
|
552 |
4.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009 |
553 |
- work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when |
554 |
a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash. |
555 |
- use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running |
556 |
destructors. |
557 |
- speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being |
558 |
synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own |
559 |
implementation. |
560 |
- AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name |
561 |
for cosmetic reasons. |
562 |
|
563 |
4.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009 |
564 |
- implemented idle watchers, where applicable. |
565 |
- AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use. |
566 |
- fix a memleak in the Tk backend. |
567 |
- sped up Tk timer handling. |
568 |
- clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event |
569 |
to avoid spamming out warning messages. |
570 |
- fix Qt timers without interval. |
571 |
- avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's. |
572 |
|
573 |
4.352 Mon Apr 20 16:31:11 CEST 2009 |
574 |
- fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers. |
575 |
- fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions. |
576 |
- add AnyEvent->now_update. |
577 |
|
578 |
4.351 Sat Apr 11 07:56:14 CEST 2009 |
579 |
- actually make the signal pipe work under win32. |
580 |
- localise $! in signal handler to avoid changing $!, although |
581 |
perl itself does not seem to save/restore errno either. |
582 |
- set the cloexec flag on the signal pipe (normally set by perl too). |
583 |
|
584 |
4.35 Fri Mar 27 11:48:20 CET 2009 |
585 |
- event models relying on AnyEvent's signal watcher emulation did |
586 |
invoke the callback asynchronously, contradicting documentation |
587 |
and causing signals to get lost (this includes AnyEvent's own |
588 |
event loop). AnyEvent now uses the standard pipe trick to make |
589 |
callback execution synchronous to the event loop. |
590 |
- AnyEvent::Handle didn't free TLS context data on DESTROY |
591 |
(patch by Pavel Shaydo). |
592 |
- work around the ever-incompatibly-changing API of MakeMaker. |
593 |
- document that changing global variables without restoring them |
594 |
is a bad idea in Perl (noted by Adam Rosenstein). |
595 |
- AnyEvent::Strict now barfs if ->io is passed a file. |
596 |
|
597 |
4.34 Thu Feb 12 18:32:45 CET 2009 |
598 |
- separately buffer TLS read data, as otherwise the read queue could |
599 |
deadlock as receiving data is not expected while draining the |
600 |
read queue (which cna only happen with TLS). |
601 |
- raise EBADMSG error on JSON decoding errors. |
602 |
- fix some minor manpage bugs (reported by Maximilian Gaß). |
603 |
- speed up select bitmask parsing quite a bit in the pure perl |
604 |
backend. |
605 |
- use CORE::select instead of just select in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl. |
606 |
|
607 |
4.331 Tue Jan 6 21:07:25 CET 2009 |
608 |
- socketpair fails on many vista machines because vista has |
609 |
completely broken accept/getpeername and getsockname functions, |
610 |
so we provide our own socketpair emulation that kind of works |
611 |
(AnyEvent::Util::portable_pipe). |
612 |
- new function: AnyEvent::Util::portable_socketpair. |
613 |
- take advantage of the Guard module if it exists. |
614 |
|
615 |
4.33 Fri Nov 21 02:35:40 CET 2008 |
616 |
- AnyEvent::Strict did errornously flag a fileno of 0 as |
617 |
illegal. |
618 |
- reduce memory usage and slightly speed up the pure perl backend |
619 |
by only storing the file descriptor, not the file handle. |
620 |
- add missing autocork method to AnyEvent::Handle (reported |
621 |
by Adam Rosenstein). |
622 |
- AnyEvent::DNS->resolve errornously documented an $rcode result |
623 |
argument, but there isn't (spotted by Henrik Krohns). |
624 |
- the naked truth about Tk - it's basically unmaintained. |
625 |
|
626 |
4.32 Mon Nov 3 22:46:32 CET 2008 |
627 |
- fix AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr to properly support |
628 |
unix sockets again and choose a proper default for |
629 |
the socket type. |
630 |
- fix call to resolve_sockaddr in tcp_connect. |
631 |
|
632 |
4.31 Thu Oct 30 04:41:48 CET 2008 |
633 |
- implemented AnyEvent::Handle->destroy method. |
634 |
- hint about unexpected effects in TLS mode. |
635 |
- speed up AnyEvent::Impl::Perl by using more arrays |
636 |
instead of hashes without the slightest loss of readability :) |
637 |
- work around a perl argument refcounting bug. |
638 |
- with some perl patches applied, AnyEvent now seems leak-free. |
639 |
|
640 |
4.3 Fri Oct 3 09:18:43 CEST 2008 |
641 |
- AnyEvent will now install a no-op signal handler for SIGPIPE, |
642 |
unless one has been installed already. |
643 |
- warn about not loaidng AnyEvent::Impl::POE early enough |
644 |
(patch by Adam Rosenstein). |
645 |
- fixed a great number of bugs and corner cases in AnyEvent::Handle. |
646 |
- fix a bug in where in SSL connect mode, the |
647 |
client would first wait for some data by the server and |
648 |
otherwise hang. (reported and analysed in an absolutely |
649 |
exemplary manner by Adam Rosenstein). |
650 |
- fix a bug in where SSL EOF would not be treated |
651 |
as stream EOF, putting the connection into a hung state. |
652 |
(reported and analysed in an absolutely exemplary manner by Adam |
653 |
Rosenstein). |
654 |
- fix a potential segfault when the TLS context |
655 |
would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) - |
656 |
Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever. |
657 |
- AnyEvent::Handle will not stop the read watcher in TLS mode. |
658 |
- AnyEvent::Handle->stoptls will send a TLS close notify |
659 |
instead of simply destroying the stream now. |
660 |
- fix a bug where large blocks of data written in TLS mode |
661 |
would not be sent unless triggered by receives. |
662 |
- on_drain will now take the tls write buffer into account. |
663 |
- SSL operations have been streamlined a bit and should be faster |
664 |
now, more to come, though. |
665 |
- added a FAQ section, will document nontrivial issues in there. |
666 |
|
667 |
4.234 Mon Sep 29 04:08:13 CEST 2008 |
668 |
- fix child watcher documentation: only child exits will be reported, |
669 |
no trace events. |
670 |
- mention SIGPIPE in AnyEvent::Handle. |
671 |
- perl backend will now use POSIX::times as monotonic clock |
672 |
when available and the monotonic clock option is not. |
673 |
- run even without Time::HiRes in some cases now, but do not |
674 |
provide sub-second accuracy (all *supported* perl versions have |
675 |
Time::HiRes). |
676 |
|
677 |
4.233 Fri Aug 22 01:48:05 CEST 2008 |
678 |
- fix a bug in the testsuite, causing a hang. |
679 |
- clarified lots of AnyEvent::Handle constructor arguments. |
680 |
|
681 |
4.232 Thu Aug 21 20:44:25 CEST 2008 |
682 |
- fix a bug in AnyEvent::Handle that could cause two fatal error |
683 |
callbacks on EOF, which caused AnyEvent::HTTP to signal success twice |
684 |
(testcase by Leon Brocard). |
685 |
- clarified on_eof/on_error documentation a bit. |
686 |
|
687 |
4.231 Tue Jul 29 13:12:15 CEST 2008 |
688 |
- remove some debugging code left in AnyEvent::Util::fork_call |
689 |
(and no, it's impossible to implement with the broken windows |
690 |
perls without resource leaks or worse). |
691 |
|
692 |
4.23 Tue Jul 29 12:19:59 CEST 2008 |
693 |
- document the first parameter passed to condvar callbacks to be |
694 |
the callback. |
695 |
- add AnyEvent::Socket::{ntoa,aton} aliases. |
696 |
- optimize the AE::Handle->push_read (line) for the default |
697 |
eol marker. |
698 |
- optimize push_read (packstring|storable) for small packets. |
699 |
- invoke on_error callback when no on_eof callback is set. |
700 |
- fix a bug in push_read (storable) of unknown impact. |
701 |
|
702 |
4.22 Sun Jul 20 16:34:13 CEST 2008 |
703 |
- new function AnyEvent::Socket::parse_hostport. |
704 |
- as the bulkheads at microsoft can't even get getprotobyname reliably |
705 |
working on their shitty fucking broken os we need to hardcode |
706 |
some common protocol numbers in AnyEvent::Socket. How can |
707 |
people even bother with such a pile of shit as windows. |
708 |
|
709 |
4.21 Thu Jul 17 14:40:05 CEST 2008 |
710 |
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype |
711 |
which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax. |
712 |
- work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine |
713 |
why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously |
714 |
unusable way. |
715 |
- avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in |
716 |
AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly |
717 |
K. Sharifulin). |
718 |
|
719 |
4.2 Sat Jul 12 22:42:11 CEST 2008 |
720 |
- support an "interval" argument for repeating timers. |
721 |
- fix a bug in the pure perl event loop that caused timers to |
722 |
be delayed under some circumstances. |
723 |
- implement optional argument checking via PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT. |
724 |
- not importing anything from Event causes it to malfunction |
725 |
and not use Time::HiRes, work around this bug. |
726 |
- more bug workarounds against the endlessly broken Tk module, |
727 |
seems to work now on 32 bit machines, but less so on 64 bit. |
728 |
- minor optimisations applied to most backends. |
729 |
|
730 |
4.161 Fri Jul 4 14:24:48 CEST 2008 |
731 |
- fixed the t/handle/02_write.t, it read after write, with the |
732 |
assumption that all data could be written before read |
733 |
(reported by Jim Razmus). |
734 |
|
735 |
4.160 Thu Jul 3 04:02:21 CEST 2008 |
736 |
- re-registering signal watchers after unregistering one did |
737 |
not work if a backend falls back on AnyEvent's default |
738 |
implementation (also affected child watchers). |
739 |
- new AnyEvent::Handle options: autocork and no_delay. |
740 |
|
741 |
4.152 Sun Jun 22 14:15:44 CEST 2008 |
742 |
- allow for 32-bit perls that implement shifts differently |
743 |
on different architectures in parse_ipv4 (reported and |
744 |
analysed by Keiichi DAIBA). |
745 |
|
746 |
4.151 Fri Jun 6 17:34:24 CEST 2008 |
747 |
- make sure specifying _only_ on_read and never pushing reads |
748 |
works. |
749 |
|
750 |
4.15 Fri Jun 6 13:00:46 CEST 2008 |
751 |
- the pure perl backend would keep some watchers alive when more than |
752 |
one watcher was registered for the same fd. |
753 |
- new "packstring" and "storable" read and write types |
754 |
for AnyEvent::Handle. |
755 |
- allow on_eof handler to be called after on_error with EPIPE returns. |
756 |
- do not immediately call on_read callback in handle constructor. |
757 |
|
758 |
4.14 Thu Jun 5 20:29:31 CEST 2008 |
759 |
- Fixed a bug in DNS SRV priority sorting. |
760 |
- AnyEvent::Util::guard now reports runtime errors while |
761 |
executing the guard block as warnings. |
762 |
- handle 0-byte-reads just before EOF correctly in AnyEvent::Handle. |
763 |
|
764 |
4.13 Thu Jun 5 00:47:59 CEST 2008 |
765 |
- AnyEvent::DNS only followed cname chains with length 2, |
766 |
contrary to documentation. bumped it up to 10, thanks to |
767 |
microsoft, the current broken-dns-config-king. |
768 |
- AnyEvent::DNS didn't check for socket return status |
769 |
but instead relied on perl not creating filehandles in that |
770 |
case - too bad it gives you a bogus file handle (reported |
771 |
and analysed by Vladimir Timofeev). |
772 |
- fix queue management logic in AnyEvent::Handle: |
773 |
when on_read was registered, the queue was empty |
774 |
and no progress could be made AnyEvent::Handle would |
775 |
enter an endless loop. |
776 |
- correctly start reading again when the handle became |
777 |
busy again after idling. |
778 |
- correctly treat tls shut-downs as EOF condition |
779 |
(for the time being, would be nice to have a callback for that). |
780 |
- correctly call eof callback under all conditions |
781 |
(hopefully). |
782 |
- the timeout callback did not expect that $self can go |
783 |
away any time. |
784 |
|
785 |
4.12 Tue Jun 3 10:58:04 CEST 2008 |
786 |
- include AnyEvent::Intro, a tutorial for anyevent, |
787 |
anyevent::socket and anyevent::handle. |
788 |
- allow more options in on_error. |
789 |
|
790 |
4.11 Fri May 30 23:42:25 CEST 2008 |
791 |
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace ptr by real PTR lookup, provide |
792 |
reverse_lookup and reverse_verify to replace it, support |
793 |
v4mapped and v4compat addresses. |
794 |
- provide more documentation for the resolver class. |
795 |
- really replace longest run of :0: by :: in format_address, |
796 |
also properly convert :: and ::1 again. |
797 |
- support NAPTR record name and decode it. |
798 |
- implement random weight sampling for SRV records, as per |
799 |
rfc 2782. |
800 |
- correctly abort on srv-record targets of ".". |
801 |
- added AnyEvent::DNS::wait_for_slot. |
802 |
- in the unlikely event of a virtual circuit connection |
803 |
being invalidated by a delayed udp reply, AnyEvent::DNS |
804 |
could die. this has been fixed. |
805 |
- plug a probable memleak in the DNS vc code. |
806 |
- use configured timeout also for VC request phase. |
807 |
- implement timeout and max_outstanding methods |
808 |
for resolver class. |
809 |
- update version numbers in all modules. |
810 |
|
811 |
4.1 Thu May 29 05:45:40 CEST 2008 |
812 |
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: renamed xxx_ip functions to xxx_address |
813 |
which mirrors their purpose better (old names still available |
814 |
for a while). Also moved AnyEvent::DNS::addr to |
815 |
AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr. |
816 |
- implement AnyEvent->time and AnyEvent->now. |
817 |
- fix IPv6 support in pack_sockaddr. |
818 |
- officially un-experimentalise all newly introduced code. |
819 |
- support unix domain sockets everywhere by specifying |
820 |
a host of "unix/" and the pathname as service. |
821 |
- implement an activity timeout in AnyEvent::Handle. |
822 |
- added a regex read type to AnyEvent::Handle. |
823 |
- added a json read/write type to AnyEvent::Handle. |
824 |
- always croak in on_error in AnyEvent::Handle. |
825 |
- document how to subclass AnyEvent::Handle. |
826 |
- implement AnyEvent::Util::fork_call. |
827 |
- add support for IPv6 nameservers and nameserver statements. |
828 |
- work around _yet_ _another_ windows perl bug in where empty |
829 |
select masks cause errors in the pure perl backend (this |
830 |
workaround cannot be implemented for the other event loops, |
831 |
but EV also works around this). |
832 |
- supply AnyEvent::Socket::address_type and make good use of it. |
833 |
- clarify and fix the Handle documentation w.r.t $self vs. $handle |
834 |
vs. callback arguments. |
835 |
- add some recommends to the META.yml. |
836 |
|
837 |
4.05 Mon May 26 19:44:06 CEST 2008 |
838 |
- some platforms ignore the rfc and prepend an extra sa_len member to |
839 |
the sockaddr structure, cater for those. also use sockaddr_family, |
840 |
didn't know it was there, but comes in handy for the workaround. |
841 |
- undo the import WIN32 hack. |
842 |
|
843 |
4.04 Mon May 26 08:03:31 CEST 2008 |
844 |
- try to work around yet another windows bug: failed connects are reported |
845 |
as if it were out-of-band data. windows users: you suck. Only |
846 |
EV, Glib, Event and the pure perl backend can handle this condition. |
847 |
- optimize write algorithm in AnyEvent::Handle. |
848 |
- properly parse PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS and use the info correctly. |
849 |
- tcp_connect now properly iterates through all targets. |
850 |
- check wether IPv6 sockets can actually be created, otherwise, disable ipv6 |
851 |
support entirely. also hardcode some AF_INET6 constants for the |
852 |
sake of perl 5.8. |
853 |
- vastly improved nameserver/suffix detection algorithm for windows |
854 |
(still a hack...) |
855 |
- try to use a fallback dns server if no dns servers could be found. |
856 |
- splatter around some local $SIG{__DIE__}'s to work around bad |
857 |
die handlers. |
858 |
|
859 |
4.03 Sun May 25 05:05:57 CEST 2008 |
860 |
- work around perl bugs on windows, where perl returns undocumented |
861 |
error codes for sysread, syswrite etc. |
862 |
- fix AnyEvent::Handle::unshift_read to really unshift and not push. |
863 |
- AnyEvent::Handle could sometimes stumble over 0-byte writes. |
864 |
- fix unpack_sockaddr, now works for AF_INET6 sockaddr's. |
865 |
- updated documentation. |
866 |
- lots of workarounds for perl 5.8 quirks. |
867 |
- implement a more flexible type system for both reads and writes |
868 |
in AnyEvent::Handle. |
869 |
- support IPv6 in tcp_server. |
870 |
- pass local hostname and port to the prepare callback in tcp_server. |
871 |
- make types extendable in AnyEvent::Handle. |
872 |
- croak, not die, in AnyEvent::Handle; |
873 |
|
874 |
4.0 Sat May 24 19:58:08 CEST 2008 |
875 |
- added (experimental) AnyEvent::DNS module. |
876 |
- added (experimental) AnyEvent::Socket module. |
877 |
- added (experiemntal) support for TLS/SSL in AnyEvent::Handle. |
878 |
- make condvar->end call ->send as documented. |
879 |
- make condvar constructor support the documented cb => argument. |
880 |
- overload condvars so you can use them instead of code references. |
881 |
- support more of the POSIX forms instead of a pure dotted quad for |
882 |
verbatim ip addresses. |
883 |
- AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton will use AnyEvent::DNS now and not fork anymore. |
884 |
- try very hard not to freeze on broken windows perls. |
885 |
- make on_eof optional in AnyEvent::Handle. |
886 |
- support service names in tcp_connect and tcp_server. |
887 |
- work around netbsd/openbsd bug causing unix sockets not to |
888 |
become writable until empty. |
889 |
- only make a dummy read for error detection when getpeername |
890 |
returns ENOTCONN. |
891 |
- defend AnyEvent::Util::inet_aton against Coro::LWP's brutal |
892 |
override. |
893 |
- new AnyEvent::Guard::cancel. |
894 |
|
895 |
3.5 Sat May 17 23:17:14 CEST 2008 |
896 |
- gracefully deal with systems not defining CLOCK_MONOTONIC |
897 |
(as opposed to not supporting the clock itself, which worked in 3.41). |
898 |
- added AnyEvent::Util::tcp_connect and AnyEvent::Util::tcp_server |
899 |
helpers, to replace the ill-designed AnyEvent::Socket class. |
900 |
- added some examples (eg/connect, eg/handle). |
901 |
- added AnyEvent::Util::guard. |
902 |
- AnyEvent::Util now exports most of its functions. |
903 |
- fixed a bug in *_read_chunk, where the callback was called with $self as |
904 |
first and second argument. |
905 |
- simplified and fixed regex handling in AnyEvent::Handle::*_read_line. |
906 |
- fix manpage condvars examples to use new syntax. |
907 |
- considerably improve inet_aton with EV::ADNS backend to support |
908 |
cname chains (common dns configuration bug, e.g. with www.google.de) |
909 |
and aaaa records if no a record could be found. |
910 |
|
911 |
3.41 Sun May 11 19:53:13 CEST 2008 |
912 |
- work around a bug in perl 5.8.8's local. Reported by Yi Ma Mao. |
913 |
|
914 |
3.4 Sun May 11 00:29:25 CEST 2008 |
915 |
- complete re-implementation of condvars with a hopefully much more useful |
916 |
API (backward compatible functions exist but are undocumented). |
917 |
- AnyEvent::Handle fully rewritten with a hopefully more powerful API |
918 |
(still subject to change). |
919 |
- take advantage of CLOCK_MONOTONIC, if available, in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl. |
920 |
- provide AnyEvent::post_detect and @AnyEvent::post_detect, which |
921 |
allows module authors to avoid forcing event loop detection. |
922 |
(used by Coro::AIO, Coro::BDB, Coro::AnyEvent for example). |
923 |
- remove coro backends: Coro now provides generic support for AnyEvent |
924 |
via Coro::AnyEvent. |
925 |
|
926 |
3.3 Mon Apr 28 09:51:06 CEST 2008 |
927 |
- added AnyEvent::Handle, AnyEvent::Socket and AnyEvent::Util modules. |
928 |
- fix a bug in the pure perl backend that kept watchers alive |
929 |
when multiple watchers were registered for the same fh/poll combo. |
930 |
- add a benchmark section showing AnyEvent overhead and comparing |
931 |
the different event loops with each other. |
932 |
- prefer pure perl over tk when autoprobing, as it's about as fast, |
933 |
but doesn't crash with many watchers. |
934 |
- declare Qt support non-experimental. |
935 |
- clarify the confusing section about the file descriptor being |
936 |
kept alive. |
937 |
- document the race between loading of an event module and |
938 |
child processes exiting. |
939 |
- support POE as "backend" (with some caveats, POE is not generic |
940 |
enough, and darn slow). |
941 |
- support Wx and Prima through POE. |
942 |
- optimise perl backend to use 20% less memory and take advantage |
943 |
of typical timeout behaviour. It can now compete with |
944 |
select/poll-based C event loops in most cases (it is usually |
945 |
faster than Event and Glib :). |
946 |
- roughly cut EV memory use in half and increase its speed by 30%, |
947 |
by removing undocumented functionality. Did something similar |
948 |
to other event loops where possible. |
949 |
|
950 |
3.2 Thu Apr 24 10:10:40 CEST 2008 |
951 |
- do not die when anyevent watchers are destroyed while running callbacks |
952 |
in the pureperl backend (could only happen when two watchers are registered |
953 |
for the same fh/poll combo). |
954 |
- support autoloading for child watchers, was broken in all versions. |
955 |
- implement PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL env variable. |
956 |
- (experimental) implement interface to the (very crashy/buggy) Event::Lib module. |
957 |
- (experimental) implement interface to the Qt module (cannot be autoprobed). |
958 |
- this release is IO:AnyEvent-proof. |
959 |
|
960 |
3.12 Tue Apr 22 07:11:46 CEST 2008 |
961 |
- reinstate AUTHOR section that got lost somehow. |
962 |
- do not hang in the testsuite with badly broken perls (activestate, |
963 |
strawberry...), but instead diagnose the problem and continue. |
964 |
- use INT instead of CHLD in an attempt to support broken windows perls |
965 |
better (this decreases the test quality, unfortunately). |
966 |
- do not send the signal to the process group |
967 |
(no problem for CHLD, bad for INT :). |
968 |
|
969 |
3.11 Sat Apr 19 06:57:31 CEST 2008 |
970 |
- major documentation rework. |
971 |
- document the fact that child watchers only watch for zombies. |
972 |
- fix the child watcher example. |
973 |
|
974 |
3.1 Wed Apr 16 17:09:01 CEST 2008 |
975 |
- work around recurring bugs in Tk by dup'ing filehandles, the |
976 |
only method with good success chances on Tk (the bugs apparently |
977 |
don't get fixed anytime soon). |
978 |
- lift the restriction of only one watcher per fh direction |
979 |
(as the Tk bug workaround also lifts it and only Tk imposed |
980 |
such strong limits). |
981 |
- changed probe order to prefer coro adaptors. |
982 |
- explain why recursion into the event loop is not supported |
983 |
unless the backend supports it (only Coro::EV does without |
984 |
any restrictions...). |
985 |
- add simple manpages for all backend modules. |
986 |
|
987 |
3.0 Mon Apr 7 21:30:23 CEST 2008 |
988 |
- Coro::Signal changed semantics, roll our own, also cleaning |
989 |
up the Coro implementation in general. |
990 |
- rename Coro backend to CoroEvent. |
991 |
- add some decision helping paragraph to the manpage that should |
992 |
help people to decide whether AnyEvent is the right thing for them. |
993 |
|
994 |
2.9 Mon Jan 28 13:31:54 CET 2008 |
995 |
- update for EV 3.0 API changes. |
996 |
|
997 |
2.8 Sun Nov 25 15:06:03 CET 2007 |
998 |
- waitpid can validly return 0. accept this fact of life |
999 |
instead of reporting it to any watchers. |
1000 |
|
1001 |
2.7 Fri Nov 23 11:41:14 CET 2007 |
1002 |
- force use of AnyEvent::Impl::Perl in testsuite, there is |
1003 |
too much breakage outside AnyEvent. |
1004 |
- deliver signals synchronously in AnyEvent::Impl::Perl |
1005 |
or any other event loop that relies on AnyEvents child |
1006 |
watcher emulation. *Could* help with hanging testsuite |
1007 |
(except when Event or EV are installed). |
1008 |
|
1009 |
2.6 Fri Nov 9 20:36:35 CET 2007 |
1010 |
- fix bug in testsuite. |
1011 |
- move EV adaptor modules to AnyEvent. |
1012 |
- add Coro+EV adaptor module. |
1013 |
|
1014 |
2.55 Tue Nov 6 17:41:32 CET 2007 |
1015 |
- add EV to the list of supported event models. |
1016 |
- do not auto-reset pid watchers, pass pid and status to them. |
1017 |
- allow a pid of zero to watch for all children in child watchers. |
1018 |
|
1019 |
2.54 Wed Jul 18 17:36:23 CEST 2007 |
1020 |
- work around a perl bug that results in |
1021 |
BEGIN not safe after errors--compilation aborted without |
1022 |
any discernible reason or error message by once |
1023 |
again not use'ing strict. |
1024 |
|
1025 |
2.53 Sun Jul 8 10:51:53 CEST 2007 |
1026 |
- make Glib interface work again (spotted by elmex). |
1027 |
|
1028 |
2.52 Wed Mar 7 18:36:16 CET 2007 |
1029 |
- child watchers stopped working permanently when |
1030 |
all current child watchers were destroyed. |
1031 |
|
1032 |
2.51 Mon Dec 11 21:33:24 CET 2006 |
1033 |
- work around bugs in perl where eval "require Module" returns |
1034 |
true even if the module couldn't be loaded :/. |
1035 |
|
1036 |
2.5 Mon Dec 11 02:15:28 CET 2006 |
1037 |
- avoid $AUTOLOAD because many perls corrupt it. |
1038 |
- AnyEvent::detect forces autodetection. |
1039 |
- implement signal watchers (experimental) |
1040 |
(Tk does not support async signals (<= 804.027 at least), |
1041 |
so they might get delayed indefinitely on Tk). |
1042 |
- implement child watchers (experimental). |
1043 |
- moved default condvar implementation into base module, simplifying |
1044 |
most implementation modules. |
1045 |
|
1046 |
2.1 Fri Nov 24 15:50:48 CET 2006 |
1047 |
- better docs. |
1048 |
- simple testsuite. |
1049 |
- added AnyEvent->one_event method for special purposes. |
1050 |
|
1051 |
2.0 Wed Nov 1 02:21:30 CET 2006 |
1052 |
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: poll can now either be "r" or "w" but not both. |
1053 |
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: io watcher callbacks have no arguments anymore. |
1054 |
- EXPERIMENTAL: |
1055 |
new pure-perl model added, AnyEvent now always finds a suitable |
1056 |
event model. |
1057 |
- improved documentation. |
1058 |
- reduced cpu overhead. |
1059 |
|
1060 |
1.02 Fri Jan 13 14:15:40 CET 2006 |
1061 |
- add COPYING to clarify license. |
1062 |
|
1063 |
1.01 Sun Jan 8 05:48:09 CET 2006 |
1064 |
- correctly cancel Event timers, avoid memory leaks. |
1065 |
|
1066 |
1.0 Sun Jan 8 05:40:58 CET 2006 |
1067 |
- allow third-party interfaces to be added at runtime. |
1068 |
- fix version number. |
1069 |
|
1070 |
0.9 Fri Dec 30 02:25:41 CET 2005 |
1071 |
- fixed errors in the documentation. |
1072 |
- going back to using $VERSION as "load check", |
1073 |
as suggested by Jörn Reder. Let's see why I stopped using |
1074 |
this method. |
1075 |
- add 'hup' to the list of events to receive for glib |
1076 |
and generate 'rw' events for it, as some versions of |
1077 |
glib seem to require this, while this breaks other |
1078 |
(older) versions of glib. |
1079 |
- implemented PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE env variable. |
1080 |
|
1081 |
0.3 Sun Dec 4 10:43:33 CET 2005 |
1082 |
- no changes to the code. |
1083 |
- fixed documentation. |
1084 |
- clarified some corner cases. |
1085 |
- vastly improved documentation with a long example. |
1086 |
|
1087 |
0.2 Thu Dec 1 22:18:49 CET 2005 |
1088 |
- check whether a valid method was called, to avoid endless loops. |
1089 |
- move condvars into their own class (cleaner, safer). |
1090 |
- don't die when some modules are not available. |
1091 |
- Tk is too broken to allow for words. Will work once Tk works. |
1092 |
|
1093 |
0.1 Thu Dec 1 19:44:57 CET 2005 |
1094 |
- spiced up and cleaned up for release. |
1095 |
|
1096 |
0.01 Tue Sep 21 18:12:09 CEST 2004 |
1097 |
- original version; copied from Convert::Scalar. |
1098 |
|
