Hi, guys!
I am happy to announce the new development version of ngx_openresty,
1.2.4.1:
http://openresty.org/#Download
Special thanks go to all our contributors and users for helping make
this
happen!
Below is the complete change log for this release, as compared to the
last
(stable) release, 1.2.3.8:
-
upgraded the Nginx core to 1.2.4.
- see http://nginx.org/en/CHANGES-1.2 for changes.
-
upgraded LuaNginxModule to 0.7.1.
-
feature: implemented the “light threads” API, which allows
asynchronous concurrent processing within a single Nginx
request handler, based on automatically-scheduled Lua
coroutines. thanks Lee Holloway for requesting this feature. -
bugfix: ngx.re.gsub() might throw out the exception “attempt
to call a string value” when the “replace” argument was a
Lua function and the subject string was large. thanks Zhu
Maohai for reporting this issue. -
bugfix: older gcc versions might issue warnings like
“variable ‘nrets’ might be clobbered by ‘longjmp’ or
‘vfork’”, like gcc 3.4.3 (for Solaris 11) and gcc 4.1.2 (for
Red Hat Linux). thanks Wenhua Zhang for reporting this
issue. -
docs: added a warning for ngx.var.VARIABLE that memory is
allocated in the per-request memory pool. thanks lilydjwg. -
docs: made it clear why “return” is recommended to be used
with ngx.exit(). thanks Antoine. -
docs: massive wording improvements from Dayo.
-
-
now we add SrcacheNginxModule before both LuaNginxModule and
HeadersMoreNginxModule so that the former’s output filter runs
after those of the latter’s.

OpenResty (aka. ngx_openresty) is a full-fledged web application server
by
bundling the standard Nginx core, lots of 3rd-party Nginx modules and
Lua
libraries, as well as most of their external dependencies. See
OpenResty’s
homepage for details:
http://openresty.org/
We have been running extensive testing on our Amazon EC2 test cluster
and
ensure that all the components (including the Nginx core) play well
together. The latest test report can always be found here:

Enjoy!
