        [BUGFIXES]

         * Handle EOPNOTSUPP in resposne of efforts to disable V6ONLY

           (RT119780) (thanks XENU)

0.38    2016/08/02 18:33:50

        [CHANGES]

         * Earlier detection/reporting of erroneous Listen + Peer* argument

         * s/Port/LocalPort/ in unit tests (RT96064)

0.36    2014/01/10 20:54:58

        [BUGFIXES]

         * Always bind() on MSWin32 because Windows doesn't like it if we

           listen() having not done so (RT101396)

0.35    2015/01/02 19:45:20

        [BUGFIXES]

         * Restore blocking mode after timeout connect immediate success

           (RT100947)

         * Avoid CORE:: prefixing so global override modules work (RT101174)

         * Ensure that ->peer{host,port,hostname,service} never die even when

           unconnected (RT98759)

0.34    2014/12/03 00:04:56

        [BUGFIXES]

         * Don't select() for read-readiness when waiting for non-blocking

           connect() because it upsets VMS (RT100654)

0.33    2014/11/21 16:17:39

        [BUGFIXES]

         * Use SOL_SOCKET/SO_ERROR sockopt rather than 2nd connect() error

           hoisting to detect nonblocking connect/failure when implementing

           Timeout (RT98976) (thanks Arthur Axel 'fREW' Schmidt)

0.32    2014/09/12 10:11:27

        [CHANGES]

         * Implementation of Timeout for ->connect (RT92075)

0.31    2014/07/11 01:24:49

        [BUGFIXES]

         * A better fix for subclassing ->connect (RT95983) because 0.30 broke

           the way IO::Socket::SSL works (RT97050)

0.30    2014/07/03 23:28:43

         * Invoke $self->connect fully-qualified in case of subclasses with

           override (RT95983)

         * Added extra diag() call in t/15io-socket.t (RT96914)

0.29    2014/02/24 16:06:29

        [BUGFIXES]

         * Workaround for OSes that disobey AI_ADDRCONFIG and yield AIs on

           families the kernel will not support anyway (e.g. HPUX)

         * Workaround for OSes that lack getprotobyname() (e.g. Android)

0.28    2014/02/10 16:17:59

        [CHANGES]

         * Renamed internal _configure method to _io_socket_ip__configure to

           avoid clashes with modules that try to subclass IO::Socket::INET

        [BUGFIXES]

         * Disable AI_ADDRCONFIG during one-sided 'v6 tests as sometimes it

           would otherwise fail

         * Skip the SO_BROADCAST test on OSes that fail with EACCES (RT92502)

0.27    2014/01/20 18:08:31

        [BUGFIXES]

         * Apply a short timeout to unit tests that probe for internet

           connectivity, in case of bad firewalls, etc... (Perl RT121037)

         * Defend against machines with IN6ADDR_LOOPBACK not being "::1" in

           unit tests, similar to the INADDR_LOOPBACK case (RT92295)

0.26    2014/01/16 12:20:02

        [CHANGES]

         * Set $VERSION in BEGIN block before 'use base' so that

           Acme::Override::INET still works

         * Various minor improvements to documentation

0.25    2014/01/11 17:19:29

        [BUGFIXES]

         * Allow both *Host with port and *Port arguments, letting port from

           Host argument take precedence (INET compat)

         * Ensure that a Host/Family-less constructor still constructs a

           socket, by using gai()s AI_ADDRCONFIG hint

0.24    2013/09/19 14:17:22

        [BUGFIXES]

         * Defend against INADDR_LOOPBACK not being 127.0.0.1 on machines with

           odd networking (e.g. FreeBSD jails) during unit testing

0.23    2013/09/11 17:53:19

        [BUGFIXES]

         * Check that kernel actually supports SO_REUSEPORT before

           unit-testing it (RT86177)

0.22    BUGFIXES:

         * Always pass 'socktype' hint to getaddrinfo() in unit tests because

           some OSes get upset without it

         * Don't unit-test that sockaddr is updated with a local bind() on

           SOCK_DGRAM sockets because some OSes don't

0.21    CHANGES:

         * Provide a downgrade method to turn an AF_INET-domain socket into a

           real IO::Socket::INET instance

         * Ensure that IO::Socket->new( Domain => ... ) definitely returns a

           socket in the right family

0.20    CHANGES:

         * Skip the IPV6_V6ONLY tests on machines lacking that constant

         * Avoid Socket::inet_pton() in unit tests as Strawberry lacks it

         * Added ->join_addr

         * Respect subclassing argument to ->accept

0.19    CHANGES:

         * More IO::Socket::INET compatibility fixes:

            + Ensure ->connected is false after ->close

            + Ensure that IO::Socket::IP->new(Family => $family) still creates

              an unbound, unconnected socket filehandle

0.18    CHANGES:

         * Work around ->socktype being undef on IO::Socket versions before

           1.35 by fetching ->sockopt( SO_TYPE ) (RT81549)

        BUGFIXES:

         * Fix test skip counts in t/21nonblocking-connect-internet.t (RT79393)

0.17    CHANGES:

         * Only pass AI_ADDRCONFIG as getaddrinfo() flag if no other flags

           specified, so the caller can disable it if required.

        BUGFIXES:

         * Don't count select() invocations during nonblocking unit test

           because this is too unreliable and races with the kernel/TCP stack

0.16    BUGFIXES:

         * Don't ->close after all connect attempts fail, because

           IO::Socket::INET doesn't do that

0.15    BUGFIXES:

         * (Hopefully) improved ->connect logic for better MSWin32 support

         * Skip testing AI_NUMERICSERV on OSes that don't support it

0.14    BUGFIXES:

         * Second attempt at fixing test skip counts

0.13    BUGFIXES:

         * Updated test skip counts in unit tests so they match the number of

           tests actually skipped

0.12    CHANGES:

         * Ensure that all instances have a defined fileno after construction,

           even in non-blocking mode (RT77726)

0.11    CHANGES:

         * Ignore unrecognised constructor arguments rather than complaining

           about their presence (RT77536)

         * Call $self->connect during constructor because IO::Socket::SSL

           relies on this to happen (RT77536)

0.10    CHANGES:

         * Allow specifying other getaddrinfo flags using GetAddrInfoFlags

           constructor argument (RT75783)

         * Provide a convenient hostname+port string splitting utility method

0.09    CHANGES:

         * Attempt to implement IPV6_V6ONLY sockopt wrapper - not all OSes can

           disable it, so detect and skip those

         * Provide ->sockaddr and ->peeraddr convenience accessors, same as

           IO::Socket::INET (RT75071)

         * Use new NIx_NOHOST and NIx_NOSERV flags to avoid redundant

           getnameinfo() lookups when only one of host or service name is

           required

         * Ensure that errno gets set to EINVAL on getaddrinfo() failures

        BUGFIXES:

         * Ignore existing-but-undefined constructor arguments

         * Avoid locale-specific error message testing of $!

         * Updates to unit tests for cygwin

0.08    CHANGES:

         * Depend on Socket 1.95 now a full dual-life release has been made

         * Set the AI_ADDRCONFIG getaddrinfo hint

         * Fix some spelling mistakes/typoes

         * MSWin32 fixes:

            + MSWin32 uses select() exceptfds rather than writefds to report

              on nonblocking connect() failure

            + MSWin32 uses EWOULDBLOCK rather than EINPROGRESS to indicate

              nonblocking connect()

        BUGFIXES:

         * Ensure ->socket protocol argument is always defined

         * Bugfix for (e.g.) NetBSD, which gets upset at protocol hint without

           socktype hint to getaddrinfo()

         * Pass 'type' rather than 'proto' to constructor in t/11sockopts.t to

           avoid MSWin32 test failures

         * Localise $1/$2 to placate [perl #67962]

0.07    CHANGES:

         * Prepare for Socket::getaddrinfo() in core; prefer it to

           Socket::GetAddrInfo::getaddrinfo()

         * Implement Family constructor arg

         * Optional registration with IO::Socket

         * Documentation rewordings

         * Bugfix to local socket connect tests - test using blocking rather

           than nonblocking sockets to guarantee synchronous packet delivery

         * Bugfix to t/04, t/05 - skip if unable to bind ::1

0.06    CHANGES:

         * Implement nonblocking connect

         * Implement LocalAddrInfo and PeerAddrInfo args

         * Example of nonblocking usage, using Net::LibAsyncNS

0.05    CHANGES:

         * Implement combined ->bind and ->connect operations

         * Accept "host:service" as *Addr args, and PeerAddr as sole

           constructor argument

         * Accept "name(port)" as service arguments

0.04    CHANGES:

         * Try to yield the most appropriate connect/bind/socket error

         * Implement sockhost/peerhost methods to match ::INET, moved hostname

           methods to sockhostname/peerhostname

        BUGFIXES:

         * Work around IO::Socket bug where ->accept'ed sockets do not get

           ->sockdomain or ->socktype

0.03    CHANGES:

         * Set $@ to raise error messages from constructor

        BUGFIXES:

         * Correctly implement 'Type' constructor argument

         * Test SO_BROADCAST on udp instead of tcp as some OSes forbid it

0.02    BUGFIXES:

         * Not all OSes return true sockopts as 1; test simply for non-zero

         * Gracefully skip IPv6 tests if Socket6 unavailable

0.01    First version, released on an unsuspecting world.
