Changes for version 0.60_001 - 2013-10-03

  • CHANGES
    • Some OSes lack signals; forbid the ->*_signal methods, and use waitpid() polling for child processes if so
    • Rearrangement of $loop->listen and IO::Async::Listener logic to allow Listener subclasses to use listen extensions (e.g. SSL)
    • Allow ->listen to construct new Stream or Socket handles
    • Updated documentation and tests to emphasise futures with resolver and ->listen
    • Note: These changes break IO::Async::SSL versions 0.12 or older.
  • BUGFIXES
    • Ensure that $stream->write( CODE, on_write/write_len ) works correctly
