The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.

Changes for version 7.08 - 2014-12-10

  • work around a newly introduced bug in Socket 2.011 (an errornous sun_length check) (analyzed by Maxime Soulé).
  • AnyEvent::TLS didn't load (but refer to) AnyEvent::Socket (analyzed by Ben Magistro).
  • AnyEvent::Strict will now confess, not croak. This is in line with it being a development/debugging tool.
  • work around a number of libglib bugs (debug builds of libglib enforce certain undocumented behaviour patterns such as not being able to remove a child watch source after it has fired, which we will try to emulate to avoid "criticals". what where they thinking...).
  • mention json security issues in AnyEvent::Handle, now that Douglas Crockford has foolishly and incompatibly changed JSON.
  • changed default dns resolver "max_outstanding" value from 1 to 10, the latter beinfg the intended value all along (reported by Ilya Chesnokov).
  • added new "AnyEvent::Impl::UV" interface module to the UV event lib (written by Mike Lowell).
