Changes for version 6.1 - 2011-10-04

  • INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the default log level is now "4" (error and above), and some messages inside AnyEvent have been elevated to higher log levels to print by default.
  • AnyEvent::log, unlike AnyEvent::Log::log, did not always exit on fatal.
  • work around yet another signal race bug, newly introduced by POE. My how that module sucks.
  • add google public ipv6 dns as fallback servers, so AE::DNS can finally support ipv6-only operation even with defaults (also use ::1 instead of 127.0.0.1).
  • give better guidelines on how to chose a logging level.
  • AnyEvent::Log can now cap (limit) log message priority by context.
  • AE::log will now save and restore $! and $@, so callers don't have to.
  • AE::Strict now checks that registered fds are still valid at regular intervals.
  • skip frequently called 'require' calls if the module appears loaded.
  • increase signal latency test timer considerably for poor little osx, which can't be bothered with basic posix functionality such as signal delivery.
  • mention some debugging aids in the tutorial.
  • new env variable PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY.
  • private (%namespace) log contexts in PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG now have the name of the context as title.
  • AnyEvent::Strict would not restore read-write access to $_ when a callback died - this is a user bug, but since AE::Strict exists to help dbeugging...
  • detect the extremely evil IO::Async::Loop::AnyEvent module and refuse to work with it - the author is well aware of the issues but refuses to fix them. This extreme step has been taken because the module actively attacks the goals of AnyEvent and makes it harder for module authors to use AnyEvent.
