  • Brought back the circuits.core.bridge.Bridge. With it better inter-process communications via high-speed full duplex pipes using circuits.net.sockets.Pipe (UNIX Only), a much simpler API.

    In addition, a change to the way Value Notification works. .notify of an event instance can either be True or a channel to send the ValueChanged event to.

  • Added timers examples resurrected from old circuits

  • Global handlers and component targeting Global handlers would be ignored when using component targeting.

    This patch considers them. To do this, we have added an extra property to managers.

    You can use traverse_children_handlers to increase performance when you have a huge number of components. Put the components that are only meant to be used with component targeting under a single component. The hierarchy looks like this:

    Root -> Umbrella Component -> Component 1, Component 2, Component 3, ...
         -> Debugger()
         -> etc
    
  • Set Umbrella Component traverse_children_handlers to false to prevent traversing the huge number of children components.

  • Fixed Connection header interpretation.

  • Updated documentation for WebSocket.

  • Removed pool - covered by worker

  • Fixed dispatchers return value.

  • Firing Connect event when a web socket connection is established to make behavior look even more like ordinary sockets.

  • Clarification on implementing a GenerateEvents handler.

  • Optimized GenerateEvents handling.

  • Optimized management of FallbackGenerator.

  • Fixed a problem with events being out of sequence when _fire is called recursively. The fix exposes a problem with conftest.Waiter (events getting lost because they are produced too fast, therefore queue is increased). Reducing production rate will be in next commit.

  • Small fix for new event queue handling.

  • Fixed problem with handler cache update and concurrent event handling/structure changes. This happens e.g. in unit tests when the app is started and the test program adds or removes components concurrently.

  • Optimized/clarified GenerateEvents implementation.

  • One more concurrency problem fixed.

  • Fixed generate events handler.

  • Fixed bug with handler cache being always invalidated. Avoid stop() acting as concurrent thread on _dispatcher()

  • Value change notifications are fired using Value’s manager as channel, so mke sure to listen on that.

  • Value’s notifications are fired on its manager component – by default the component that fired the event the value belongs to. Moved handler to proper place (is better place anyway).
