Detailed Description

A EventLoop runs an event loop for connections. It will activate the callbacks associated with them. The class using an EventLoop should tipically assign incoming connections in a round-robin fashion.

There might be more than one event loop in use in applications. In this case, each EventLoop can be run in a thread.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

fluid_base::EventLoop::EventLoop

(

int

id)

Create a EventLoop.

Parameters

id	event loop id

Member Function Documentation

void fluid_base::EventLoop::run

(

)

Run this event loop (which will block the calling thread). When EventLoop::stop is called, this method will unblock, run the callbacks of pending events and return.

Calling EventLoop::stop first will prevent this method from running.

void fluid_base::EventLoop::stop

(

)

Force the event loop to stop. It will finish running the current event callback and then force EventLoop::run to continue its flow (deal with remaining events and quit).

Calling this method first will prevent EventLoop::run from running.

static void* fluid_base::EventLoop::thread_adapter ( void *  arg)

static

This method is just an adapter for passing the EventLoop::run method to pthread_create.
