This version was released on 2002-10-25.

2002-10-25 17:04:16 by rcaputo; Makefile.PL 1.25

  Update the ithreads warning, and make the delay for it a little
  longer so people can digest it. 

2002-10-25 16:13:36 by rcaputo; POE.pm 1.149

  Bump the version to 0.2302 for release. Feature freeze. Only commit
  bug fixes. 

2002-10-25 15:53:46 by rcaputo; README 1.101

  Minor edits before 0.2302 is tarred up. 

2002-10-25 15:04:38 by rcaputo; t/00_coverage.t 1.16

  Clean up an error message regarding Wheel::ReadLine and Term::Cap. 

2002-10-25 06:56:09 by rcaputo; POE/Kernel.pm 1.216;
POE/Loop/Event.pm 1.32; POE/Loop/Gtk.pm 1.31; POE/Loop/Poll.pm 1.19;
POE/Loop/Select.pm 1.41; POE/Loop/Tk.pm 1.38

  [May Break Code] Clean up the ASSERT_ and TRACE_ messages, and
  standardize their categories. The _DEFAULT ones still work. :) 

2002-10-25 06:52:29 by rcaputo; lib/cpan-test.perl 1.2

  Fixed a problem where the newest versions of a module were deleted
  rather than the oldest ones. Minor aesthetic changes, too. 

2002-10-21 00:08:02 by rcaputo; POE/Wheel/Run.pm 1.41

  Only import what we need. 

2002-10-20 20:55:22 by rcaputo; POE/Component/Client/TCP.pm 1.23;
POE/Component/Server/TCP.pm 1.29; POE/Kernel.pm 1.215; POE/NFA.pm 1.18;
POE/Session.pm 1.81; t/03_aliases.t 1.11; t/11_signals_poe.t 1.23;
t/22_wheel_run.t 1.28; t/23_nfa.t 1.4

  Added a mandatory warning whenever a signal is handled by returning
  true from its event handler. POE versions since 0.20 have recommended
  using sig_handled() instead.

  Added a mandatory warning whenever a "_signal" event handler is
  registered. POE versions since 0.20 have recommended using sig() to
  register explicit handlers rather than using catch-all _signal event.

  Added a mandatory warning when calling sig_handled() in a "_signal"
  handler. This includes handling signals from "_default".

  Removed _signal handlers from components and tests, since they now
  cause warnings. For the tests which need to handle signals, we now
  call sig() to register those handlers.

  Removed _signal from the list of events which generate the "... but
  session foo has neither that state nor a _default state to handle it"
  warnings. Otherwise removing _signal handlers would trade one warning
  for another. 

2002-10-20 20:35:51 by rcaputo; POE/Wheel/FollowTail.pm 1.39;
POE/Wheel/ListenAccept.pm 1.26; POE/Wheel/ReadWrite.pm 1.60;
POE/Wheel/SocketFactory.pm 1.61

  [May Break Code] Removed support for /.*State/ parameters and
  upgraded their use from warnings to errors. This is a scheduled
  change, per http://poe.perl.org/?POE_RFCs/XyzState_to_XyzEvent

2002-10-18 20:43:22 by rcaputo; POE/Component/Client/TCP.pm 1.22

  Applied Casey Zacek's patch adding a ConnectTimeout to Client::TCP. 

2002-10-14 23:04:45 by rcaputo; lib/cpan-test.perl 1.1

  This little ditty runs all the /^POE::/ modules on the CPAN against
  the local CVS version of POE. Useful for regression testing and
  uncovering problems in components. 

2002-10-14 17:44:41 by rcaputo; POE/Kernel.pm 1.214

  Applied James March's patch to move the final leak checking out of
  END and into explicitly called finalize() functions. This prevents
  the checks from being triggered on crashes (which always leave some
  cruft behind). 

2002-10-11 21:21:41 by rcaputo
MANIFEST 1.79; POE/Queue.pm 1.1; POE/Queue/Array.pm 1.2

  Moved POE::Queue::Array documentation to POE::Queue and made it
  generic (only minor edits). Replaced POE::Queue::Array documentation
  with a pointer to POE::Queue's. 

2002-10-09 14:36:27 by rcaputo; MANIFEST 1.78; POE/Kernel.pm 1.213;
POE/Loop.pm 1.1; POE/Loop/Event.pm 1.31; POE/Loop/Gtk.pm 1.30;
POE/Loop/Poll.pm 1.18; POE/Loop/Select.pm 1.40; POE/Loop/Tk.pm 1.37

  Classified the unclassified accessors as helpers, and tidied up their
  names to match their new category. Documented the abstract POE::Loop
  interface as POE/Loop.pm, and documented the specific loops with
  pointers back to it. 

2002-10-07 20:40:24 by rcaputo; lib/cvs-log.perl 1.3

  While just admiring the cvs logs this generates, I noticed that I had
  badly formatted the dates. This swaps month and day in the log so
  that the dates make sense. 

2002-10-04 16:30:30 by rcaputo; POE/Kernel.pm 1.212

  Renamed the VEC_* constants to MODE_* because they no longer are tied
  to select() bit vectors. Also renamed the FVC_* constants to FMO_*
  for the same reason. Tweaked the way _dispatch_event() is called as
  part of the voodoo of fixing Gtk and Event (see earlier commit). 

2002-10-04 16:27:38 by rcaputo
POE/Loop/Event.pm 1.30; POE/Loop/Gtk.pm 1.29

  Fixed file descriptor tracking. The first rewrite was broken because
  different access modes (read, write) would overwrite themselves for
  the same file descriptor. This version separates watchers by
  descriptor and mode, fixing LordVorp's problem and probaly also
  jerakeen's.

  Also cleaned up some of the warning messages, renamed VEC to MODE
  throughout, and fixed the _dispatch_event calls to match Kernel.pm's
  definition for that function. 

2002-10-04 16:19:49 by rcaputo
POE/Loop/Poll.pm 1.17; POE/Loop/Select.pm 1.39; POE/Loop/Tk.pm 1.36

  Clean up the trace/assert messages a little bit. Rename VEC to MODE
  throughout. Standardize the _dispatch_event() calls to match changes
  in Kernel.pm. 

2002-10-03 18:59:38 by rcaputo; POE/Wheel/Run.pm 1.40

  Reset all signal handlers to DEFAULT in the child process. Leaving
  POE's signal handlers active was the wrong thing to do. Thanks to
  JamesCOU for finding this bug. 

2002-10-03 12:43:17 by rcaputo; POE/Kernel.pm 1.211

  Add TRACE_RELATIONS, and move extra-reference garbage collection so
  that it doesn't trigger a duplicate _stop event *from* a _stop event.
  This clears up the last of the known bugs introduced by accessorizing
  POE::Kernel's internal structures. 

2002-10-03 06:55:26 by rcaputo; POE/Kernel.pm 1.210;
POE/Loop/Event.pm 1.29; POE/Loop/Gtk.pm 1.28; POE/Loop/Poll.pm 1.16;
POE/Loop/Select.pm 1.38; POE/Loop/Tk.pm 1.35

  Normalized the parameters for the enqueue and dequeue functions in
  POE::Kernel, and their use throughout all the files. Tracked down and
  stomped a file descriptor reference count inconsistency. Tested POE
  against its own tests, and tested my components against POE. All
  tests successful. However, more work needs to be done: A lot of
  warnings come up when SIGINT'ing a program. 

2002-10-02 22:58:20 by rcaputo; POE/Kernel.pm 1.209

  Implement POE_TRACE_FOO and POE_ASSERT_FOO environment variables.
  These let you turn on traces and assertions without modifying any
  code. Also cleaned up a leak in the extra refcount management, and
  tidied up some error messages. 

2002-10-02 18:54:59 by rcaputo; POE/Kernel.pm 1.208

  Undo the inline "optimization" from the last commit. The function
  needs to exist for scoping reasons. 

2002-10-02 18:38:33 by rcaputo; POE/Kernel.pm 1.207

  Chop up all the long (>79 chars) lines. Inline a function that was
  only called from one place. Fix a misspelled method name, which
  caused Rob Bloodgood's program to fail. 

2002-10-02 07:01:36 by rcaputo; POE/Kernel.pm 1.206;
POE/Loop/Event.pm 1.28; POE/Loop/Gtk.pm 1.27; POE/Loop/Poll.pm 1.15;
POE/Loop/Select.pm 1.37; POE/Loop/Tk.pm 1.34

  Split Kernel.pm into several subsystems. Although they are in the
  same file, their data structures have been separated and hidden as
  lexicals in private scopes. The only way to modify them is through
  public accessors. The next step in the refactor will be to clean up
  the accessors, but I wanted to commit things while it still passes
  "make test". 

2002-10-02 06:58:20 by rcaputo; t/08_errors.t 1.40

  I copped out, sorry. I removed some parameter syntax test which
  created wheels outside of any session. The resulting good syntax came
  out as errors because POE freaked when it tried to put the wheels
  somewhere that didn't exist. I hope to make up for tonight's lameness
  with a decent suite of unit tests later. 

2002-10-02 06:54:56 by rcaputo; POE.pm 1.148

  We're going to try a different version numbering scheme. Odd
  subversions will be for CVS stuff. Even subversions will be web-only
  releases. As always, plain versions (which only go out to the
  hundredths place) are reserved for stable CPAN releases. Bump the
  version to 0.2301 to kick off the CVS phase (kind of late, though). 

2002-10-02 06:27:41 by rcaputo; t/22_wheel_run.t 1.27

  Wheel::Run contains its own exit code, which tries to thwart object
  destruction so POE's own destructors aren't triggered. The exit
  statement in the coderef test was thwarting it, causing all kinds of
  false leak detection. 

2002-09-30 02:43:46 by sungo; POE/Wheel/FollowTail.pm 1.38

  remove -l check on files which fixes spurious warning when
  encountering a filehandle 

2002-09-28 02:53:26 by rcaputo; POE/Wheel/FollowTail.pm 1.37

  Be more conscientious about cleaning up when FollowTail is destroyed. 

2002-09-28 00:20:57 by rcaputo
POE/Wheel/FollowTail.pm 1.36; t/14_wheels_ft.t 1.10

  Split FollowTail into two modes: plain-file mode which uses
  "blocking" I/O and timer based polling on disk files, and fifo/socket
  mode which uses non-blocking I/O and select-based polling on special
  files. This should do the right things for sockets, pipes, and plain
  files. Because it avoids NBIO and select() on disk files, it should
  also work on Windows and VMS. 

2002-09-27 02:23:24 by rcaputo; POE/Kernel.pm 1.205;
POE/Loop/Event.pm 1.27; POE/Loop/Gtk.pm 1.26; POE/Loop/Poll.pm 1.14;
POE/Loop/Select.pm 1.36; POE/Loop/Tk.pm 1.33

  Attempt to binmode() tied files, although do it in a block eval in
  case it fails. Don't bother making plain files (-f $handle)
  nonblocking, since it rarely makes a difference and sometimes really
  honks off the operating system (aka: POE dies in the attempt). Oh,
  and much code movement (aka: refactoring). Still not done with that. 

2002-09-26 19:51:09 by rcaputo; samples/preforkedserver.perl 1.13

  Deprecated and moved. The entire program is replaced by a brief
  message pointing to its new location on the web. 

2002-09-25 19:45:00 by rcaputo; MANIFEST 1.77; POE/Kernel.pm 1.204;
POE/Loop/Event.pm 1.26; POE/Loop/Gtk.pm 1.25; POE/Loop/Poll.pm 1.13;
POE/Loop/Select.pm 1.35; POE/Loop/Tk.pm 1.32; t/08_errors.t 1.39

  Rename POE::Kernel::* to POE::Loop::*. People following along with
  CVS will need to "cvs update -dP" or check the whole thing out again. 

2002-09-25 06:30:20 by rcaputo; POE/Kernel.pm 1.203;
POE/Loop/Event.pm 1.25; POE/Loop/Gtk.pm 1.24; POE/Loop/Poll.pm 1.12;
POE/Loop/Select.pm 1.34; POE/Loop/Tk.pm 1.31

  Beginning of the refactoring that will move all POE data structure
  access into accessors. When this is done, the public interfaces will
  be totally separate from the internal data munging. That should let
  the data structures be redone in C without affecting the public
  interfaces. 

2002-09-25 03:05:29 by rcaputo; POE/Queue/Array.pm 1.1

  How could I have forgotten to add this before? Duh! 

2002-09-24 23:47:18 by rcaputo; t/22_wheel_run.t 1.26

  Apply sungo's fix for tcaine's Wheel::Run test failures on MacOS X.
  It turns out I forgot to catch an unhandled event after I made
  ASSERT_DEFAULT die outright on those things. It never occurred in
  testing, although it could have at any time. 

2002-09-24 22:26:22 by rcaputo; POE/Kernel.pm 1.202;
POE/Loop/Event.pm 1.24; POE/Loop/Gtk.pm 1.23; POE/Loop/Poll.pm 1.11;
POE/Loop/Select.pm 1.33; POE/Loop/Tk.pm 1.30

  Finish separating POE::Kernel from the event loop bridges. 

2002-09-24 06:32:41 by rcaputo; MANIFEST 1.76; POE/Kernel.pm 1.201;
POE/Loop/Event.pm 1.23; POE/Loop/Gtk.pm 1.22; POE/Loop/Poll.pm 1.10;
POE/Loop/Select.pm 1.32; POE/Loop/Tk.pm 1.29; t/001_queue.t 1.1

  Extract POE's queue code into POE::Queue::Array. 

2002-09-24 06:22:55 by rcaputo; t/02_alarms.t 1.11

  Increase the size of the "large queue" tests. They were never made
  larger when POE's "large queue" threshold was raised. 

2002-09-24 06:18:05 by rcaputo; TODO 1.34

  Fix the URL of POE's RFCs. 

2002-09-22 23:55:27 by sungo; Makefile.PL 1.24

  add a warning about ithreads bug to Makefile.PL. 

2002-09-19 01:49:32 by sungo; POE/Wheel/ReadLine.pm 1.23

  convert the last remaining macros to subroutines.
  samples/readline.perl runs flawlessly and all tests pass 

Back to POE CHANGES.
