IO::Async::Loop::Poll(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation IO::Async::Loop::Poll(3pm) NAME
"IO::Async::Loop::Poll" - use "IO::Async" with "poll(2)" SYNOPSIS
Normally an instance of this class would not be directly constructed by a program. It may however, be useful for runinng IO::Async with an existing program already using an "IO::Poll" object. use IO::Poll; use IO::Async::Loop::Poll; my $poll = IO::Poll->new; my $loop = IO::Async::Loop::Poll->new( poll => $poll ); $loop->add( ... ); while(1) { my $timeout = ... my $ret = $poll->poll( $timeout ); $loop->post_poll; } DESCRIPTION
This subclass of "IO::Async::Loop" uses an "IO::Poll" object to perform read-ready and write-ready tests. To integrate with existing code that uses an "IO::Poll", a "post_poll" can be called immediately after the "poll" method on the contained "IO::Poll" object. The appropriate mask bits are maintained on the "IO::Poll" object when notifiers are added or removed from the set, or when they change their "want_writeready" status. The "post_poll" method inspects the result bits and invokes the "on_read_ready" or "on_write_ready" methods on the notifiers. CONSTRUCTOR
$loop = IO::Async::Loop::Poll->new( %args ) This function returns a new instance of a "IO::Async::Loop::Poll" object. It takes the following named arguments: "poll" The "IO::Poll" object to use for notification. Optional; if a value is not given, a new "IO::Poll" object will be constructed. METHODS
$count = $loop->post_poll( $poll ) This method checks the returned event list from a "IO::Poll::poll" call, and calls any of the notification methods or callbacks that are appropriate. It returns the total number of callbacks that were invoked; that is, the total number of "on_read_ready" and "on_write_ready" callbacks for "watch_io", and "watch_time" event callbacks. $poll Reference to the "IO::Poll" object $count = $loop->loop_once( $timeout ) This method calls the "poll" method on the stored "IO::Poll" object, passing in the value of $timeout, and then runs the "post_poll" method on itself. It returns the total number of callbacks invoked by the "post_poll" method, or "undef" if the underlying "poll" method returned an error. AUTHOR
