| Perlbal 1.38, appearing on CPAN shortly, is now available at:
http://danga.com/dist/Perlbal/Perlbal-1.38.tar.gz
Lot of nice little changes since 1.37, included here:
1.38: (beta for 1.40) 2005-10-12
-- some paranoia evals around some parts of buffered uploads that
SAPO reported crashes in occasionally. added FIXMEs to investigate
too. for now, though, evals around closing files is safer.
-- new feature: inter-perlbal upload tracking. for fancy upload
bars driven by XmlHttpRequest when clients are upload large files
-- WARNING: reproxying (files or URLs) is now disabled by default,
and must be enabled per-service with "enable_reproxy = true"
-- do a final little read before closing an HTTP connection
to make sure we have no unread data in kernel (notably
an extra "\r\n" from an IE post), so when we do close, we
don't send a RST packet to the end user. Thanks to Kevin
Lewandowski from discogs.com for the bug report.
-- use Danga::Socket's AddTimer interface to disconnect
stale persistent connections every 5 seconds, driven by
a timer, rather than every 15 seconds, driven by
socket creation.
-- there was a bug where 304 Not Modified responses would
cause a connection close (and thus RST packets) even
though keep-alive was negotiated and would've worked
-- ignore URL arguments when doing directory indexing
-- work a little better under "trickle". (but still not perfect...
trickle doesn't quite work on Perlbal, unfortunately. it's useful,
or would've been useful, for testing some parts...)
-- avoid an occasional warning with dirindexing on unreadable directories
Also, I've finally tagged cvs. The tag is PERLBAL_1_38.
- Brad
