Change log

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file. This project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

0.3.0 - 2016-01-15

Added

  • Added Icicle\Concurrent\Worker\factory() function that accesses or sets the global worker factory.
  • Added Icicle\Concurrent\Worker\get() function that returns a worker from the global worker pool.

Changed

  • Icicle\Concurrent\Worker\Environment is now an interface, with Icicle\Concurrent\Worker\BasicEnvironment being the default implementation provided to workers that is then provided to Icicle\Concurrent\Worker\Task::run(). Workers with different implementations of Environment can be easily created for particular applications.
  • Icicle\Concurrent\Worker\Queue has been removed. The functionality of queues has been merged into Icicle\Concurrent\Worker\Pool through a new get() method that returns a worker from the pool. The returned worker is marked as busy until all references have been destroyed. See the example code below.
use Icicle\Concurrent\Worker\DefaultPool;

$pool = new DefaultPool();
$pool->start();
$worker = $pool->get(); // Marks $worker as busy in the pool.

// Use $worker for a series of tasks.

$worker = null; // Marks worker as idle in the pool.

0.2.2 - 2015-12-21

Added

  • Added the Icicle\Concurrent\Strand interface that combines Icicle\Concurrent\Context and Icicle\Concurrent\Sync\Channel. This interface is implemented by the following classes (note that these classes implemented the two component interface separately, so no changes were made to the implementation):
    • Icicle\Concurrent\Forking\Fork
    • Icicle\Concurrent\Threading\Thread
    • Icicle\Concurrent\Process\ChannelledProcess

Changed

  • Icicle\Concurrent\Strand interface is now required by the constructor of Icicle\Concurrent\Worker\AbstractWorker.

0.2.1 - 2015-12-16

Added

  • Added Icicle\Concurrent\Worker\DefaultQueue implementing Icicle\Concurrent\Worker\Queue that provides a queue of workers that can be pulled and pushed from the queue as needed. Pulling a worker marks it as busy and pushing the worker back into the queue marks it as idle. If no idle workers remain in the queue, a worker is selected from those marked as busy. A worker queue allows a set of interdependent tasks (for example, tasks that depend on an environment value in the worker) to be run on a single worker without having to create and start separate workers for each task.

Fixed

  • Fixed bug where exit status was not being read in Icicle\Concurrent\Process\Process, which also caused Icicle\Concurrent\Worker\WorkerProcess to fail.

0.2.0 - 2015-12-13

Changed

  • Updated to Icicle 0.9.x packages.
  • All exceptions now implement the Icicle\Exception\Throwable interface.
  • All interface names have been changed to remove the Interface suffix.
  • Sync\Channel was renamed to Sync\ChannelledStream.
  • Sync\Parcel was renamed to Sync\SharedMemoryParcel.
  • Worker\Worker has been renamed to Worker\AbstractWorker.
  • Worker\Pool has been renamed to Worker\DefaultPool.
  • Worker\WorkerFactory is now an interface, with the default implementation as Worker\DefaultWorkerFactory.

Fixed

  • Fixed bug where workers would begin throwing BusyErrors when tasks are enqueued simultaneously or between multiple coroutines.
  • Fixed bugs with worker shutdowns conflicting with tasks already running.
  • Fixed race conditions with pools occurring when enqueuing many tasks at once.
  • Fixed issue with contexts failing without explanation if the returned value could not be serialized.

0.1.1 - 2015-11-13

Added

  • Runtime support for forks and threads can now be checked with Forking\Fork::enabled() and Threading\Thread::enabled(), respectively.

Changed

  • Creating a fork will now throw an UnsupportedError if forking is not available.
  • Creating a thread will now throw an UnsupportedError if threading is not available.
  • Creating a Sync\Parcel will now throw an UnsupportedError if the shmop extension is not enabled.
  • Creating a Sync\PosixSemaphore will now throw an UnsupportedError if the sysvmsg extension is not enabled.

Fixed

  • Fixed Worker\Pool::__construct() using $minSize as the maximum pool size instead.
  • Process\Process no longer reports as running during process destruction after calling kill().

0.1.0 - 2015-10-28

Changed

  • Sync\ParcelInterface::wrap() was removed in favor of synchronized(), which now passes the value of the parcel to the callback function. The value returned by the callback will be wrapped.
  • Both channel interfaces were combined into Sync\Channel.
  • ContextInterface no longer extends a channel interface
  • Forking\Fork and Process\Process now implement ProcessInterface.
  • Updated icicleio/stream to v0.4.1.

Fixed

  • Fixed issue with error handler in Sync\Channel catching unrelated errors until the next tick.

0.1.0-beta1 - 2015-09-28

First release.

Added

  • Creating and controlling multiple threads with Threading\Thread.
  • Creating and controlling multiple forked processes with Forking\Fork.
  • Workers and tasks, which can use either threading, forks, or a separate PHP process.
  • A global worker pool that any tasks can be run in.
  • Channels for sending messages across execution contexts.
  • Parcels for storing values and objects in shared memory locations for use across contexts.
  • Non-blocking mutexes and semaphores for protecting parcels.
