=head1 NAME

Coro::PatchSet::LWP - fix Coro::LWP as much as possible

lib/Coro/PatchSet/LWP.pm  view on Meta::CPAN

=head2 support for IO::Socket::INET6 and IO::Socket::IP

Nowadays LWP may use IO::Socket::INET6 or IO::Socket::IP as socket class instead of IO::Socket::INET.
But Coro::LWP substitutes only IO::Socket::INET. So your LWP may become blocking because will still
use blocking IO::Socket::INET6 or IO::Socket::IP. This patch fixes this. But note, it will not add
IPv6 support for LWP, because  Coro::Socket is still IPv4 only. See t/09_lwp_socket_class.t

=head2 coro compatible support for https

Coro::LWP doesn't do any special hacks about https, so https connections still blocks coro threads.
This patch fixes this problem, but don't forget to load it before IO::Socket::SSL, so C<use> it as early as
possible.

=head2 loading other necessary patches

This patch will also load other necessary patches: Coro::PatchSet::Handle and Coro::PatchSet::Socket
