doc/CHANGES.html
v0.3.0 (2026-05-06) Paris - France
- Don't predate how we close underlying connection when we write something. It avoid a "double-close" (@dinosaure, #49)
- breaking change Be able to specify a UNIX domain socket for listening (@theAlexes, #51)
- Delete the
rresultdependency on tests (@dinosaure, #54) - Close only when (
httpcats) we create and bind a socket (and don't do that when the user pass a socket for us) (@theAlexes, @dinosaure, #53, #57) Clean and fix our runtime (@dinosaure, #59, #61)
Here we decided to trust the underlying state machine
H{1,2}.{Server,Client}_connection.tto properly close a connection. When we close it, weMiou.canceltasks (instead ofMiou.awaitthem).httpcatsrequiresmiou.0.6.0(which providesMiou.take). When theFlowraises an exception, we report this exception to the state machine & it should stop everything.- breaking change Pass the
connvalue to the handler (@dinosaure, #60)

- Use
Miou.Ownershipto release correctly our resource in any cases (including the cancellation case) (@dinosaure, #47) - Replace
assert falsebyfailwith(@dinosaure, #47) Improve performances (@dinosaure, #46) We use a pre-allocated buffer to read/write things into the given flow now We don't try to split bigarray to small strings We fixed a bit the way to stop a server
