Typedef Documentation

ccallback_type

typedef void(* eventxx::ccallback_type) (int, short, void *)

C function used as callback in the C API.

cevent

typedef eventxx::event< ccallback_type > eventxx::cevent

Shortcut to C-style event.

Examples

test-eof.cpp.

csignal

typedef eventxx::signal< ccallback_type > eventxx::csignal

Shortcut to C-style signal handler.

ctimer

typedef eventxx::timer< ccallback_type > eventxx::ctimer

Shortcut to C-style timer.

Examples

test-time.cpp.

Enumeration Type Documentation

anonymous enum

anonymous enum

Miscellaneous constants.

Enumerator
DEFAULT_PRIORITY	Default priority (the middle value).
ONCE	Loop just once.
NONBLOCK	Don't block the event loop.

type

enum eventxx::type

Type of events.

There are 4 kind of events: eventxx::TIMEOUT, eventxx::READ, eventxx::WRITE or eventxx::SIGNAL. eventxx::PERSIST is not an event, is an event modifier flag, that tells eventxx that this event should live until dispatcher::del() is called. You can use, for example:

eventxx::event(fd, eventxx::READ | eventxx::PERSIST, ...);

Enumerator
TIMEOUT	Timeout event.
READ	Read event.
WRITE	Write event.
SIGNAL	Signal event.
PERSIST	Not really an event, is an event modifier.

Examples

wrapped-functor-way.cpp.
