EXAMPLES
       Example #1

	      Using eio with libevent

	      <?php
	      function my_eio_poll($fd, $events, $arg) {
		  /* Some libevent regulation might go here .. */
		  if (eio_nreqs()) {
		      eio_poll();
		  }
		  /* .. and here */
	      }

	      function my_res_cb($d, $r) {
		  var_dump($r); var_dump($d);
	      }

	      $base = event_base_new();
	      $event = event_new();

	      $fd = eio_get_event_stream();
	      var_dump($fd);

	      eio_nop(EIO_PRI_DEFAULT, "my_res_cb", "nop data");
	      eio_mkdir("/tmp/abc-eio-temp", 0750, EIO_PRI_DEFAULT, "my_res_cb", "mkdir data");
	      /* some other eio_* calls here ... */

	      // set event flags
	      event_set($event, $fd, EV_READ /*| EV_PERSIST*/, "my_eio_poll", array($event, $base));

	      // set event base
	      event_base_set($event, $base);

	      // enable event
	      event_add($event);

	      // start event loop
	      event_base_loop($base);

	      /* The same will be available via buffered libevent interface */
	      ?>

	      The above example will output something similar to:

	      int(3)
	      int(0)
	      string(8) "nop data"
	      int(0)
	      string(10) "mkdir data"
