[agentzh]

Hello, folks!

I'm happy to announce that the new stable release of ngx_openresty, 1.0.9.10,
has just been kicked out of door:

  http://openresty.org/#Download

This is the first stable release of ngx_openresty that is based on the
Nginx core 1.0.9.

Special thanks go to all our contributors and users for helping make this
release happen :)

Here goes the complete change log for this release, as compared to the last
stable release, 1.0.8.26, released two weeks ago:

   - upgraded the Nginx core to 1.0.9.
   - applied the epoll_check_stale_wev
patch<http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx-devel/2011-November/001408.html>to
the Nginx 1.0.9 core. this issue affected
   PostgresNginxModule when connecting to a remote PostgreSQL server over a
   slow network. thanks @晓旭XX <http://weibo.com/u/1878897190>.
   - bugfix: nginx-1.0.9-variable_header_ignore_no_hash.patch<https://github.com/agentzh/ngx_openresty/blob/master/patches/nginx-1.0.9-variable_header_ignore_no_hash.patch>might
introduce a memory overflow issue in multi-header variables. thanks
   Markus Linnala.
   - bugfix: fixed the error message length while the ./configure script
   fails.
   - feature: applied a
patch<https://github.com/agentzh/ngx_openresty/blob/master/patches/nginx-1.0.9-log_escape_non_ascii.patch>to
add new directives
   log_escape_non_ascii to prevent escaping non-ascii bytes in access log
   variable values. requested by @姜大炮 <http://weibo.com/egis>. It can be
   turned on and off, and default to on just as the standard Nginx version.
   - upgraded DrizzleNginxModule to 0.1.2rc4.
      - bugfix: fixed issues with poll, rtsig, and select used by the Nginx
      event model by eliminating the poll syscall performed by libdrizzle.
      This also gives rise to a nice speedup (about 10% in simple cases).
   - upgraded LuaNginxModule to 0.3.1rc28.
      - feature: added the
ngx.encode_args<http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpLuaModule#ngx.encode_args>method
to encode a Lua code to a URI query string. thanks 郭颖 (
      0597虾 <http://weibo.com/shrimp0597>).
      - feature:
ngx.location.capture<http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpLuaModule#ngx.location.capture>and
      ngx.exec <http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpLuaModule#ngx.exec> now supports
      the same Lua args table format as in
ngx.encode_args<http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpLuaModule#ngx.encode_args>.
      thanks 郭颖 (0597虾 <http://weibo.com/shrimp0597>).
      - bugfix: Cache-Control header modification might introduce empty
      value headers when using with the standard
ngx_headers<http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpHeadersModule>module.
      - feature: added the ctx option to
ngx.location.capture<http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpLuaModule#ngx.location.capture>:
      you can now specify a custom Lua table to pass to the subrequest as its
      ngx.ctx <http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpLuaModule#ngx.ctx>. thanks
@hugozhu<http://weibo.com/hugozhu>
      .

   - upgraded HeadersMoreNginxModule to 0.16rc4.
      - bugfix: Cache-Control header modification might introduce empty
      value headers when using with the standard
ngx_headers<http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpHeadersModule>module.
   - upgraded PostgresNginxModule to 0.9rc2
      - bugfix: now we log an error message when the postgres_pass target
      is not found at all and returns 500 in this case instead of
returning empty
      response.
      - bugfix: we should no longer return NGX_AGAIN when the re-polling
      returns IO WAIT in case of the "connection made" state.
      - feature: added some debugging outputs which be enabled by passing
      the --with-debug option while building Nginx or OpenResty.
      - bugfix: fixed compatibility issues with Nginx 1.1.4+:
      ngx_chain_update_chains now requires a pool argument.
   - upgraded LuaRdsParserLibrary to 0.04.
      - bugfix: fixed a serious memory leak reported by bearnard.
   - upgraded XssNginxModule to 0.03rc5.
      - bugfix: the callback argument value parser did not accept
      JavaScript identifier names started with underscores. thanks Sam Mulube.

As always, you're welcome to report bugs and feature requests either here
or directly to me :)

It'll also be highly appreciated to try out the devel releases (based on
the Nginx core 1.0.10+) that are coming out later ;)

OpenResty (aka. ngx_openresty) is a full-fledged web application server by
bundling the standard Nginx core, lots of 3rd-party Nginx
modules<http://wiki.nginx.org/3rdPartyModules>,
as well as most of their external dependencies.

By taking adantage of various well-designed Nginx modules, OpenResty
effectively turns the nginx server into a powerful web app server, in which
the web developers can use the Lua programming language to script various
existing nginx C modules and Lua modules and construct extremely
high-performance web applications that is capable to handle 10K+
connections.

OpenResty aims to run your server-side web app completely in the Nginx
server, leveraging Nginx's event model to do non-blocking I/O not only with
the HTTP clients, but also with remote backends like MySQL, PostgreSQL,
Memcached, and Redis.

You can find more details on the homepage of ngx_openresty here:

Have fun!
