EventLoop

• The timer callback now receives a Timer instance, with the following useful methods:

  • cancel
  • isActive
  • setData($data)
  • getData

  And some other less common ones. These are prefered over LoopInterface::cancelTimer and LoopInterface::isTimerActive.

• You can no longer return a boolean from a periodic timer callback to abort it.

HttpClient

• HttpClient\*ConnectionManager has been moved to SocketClient\*Connector, and the getConnection method has been renamed to create.

  Before:

  $connectionManager->getConnection($host, $port);

  After:

  $connector->create($host, $port);
