NAME
Event::IO::Record - buffered asynchronous I/O, timeouts
METHODS
new ( named parameters... )
- init
-
If true (default), generate an init_event immediately (otherwise you must call init_event later).
- timeout
-
Default timeout; see Timeout method.
- irs, ors
-
Input/output record separators; default irs => "\r?[\0\n]", ors => "\n".
- handle
-
Handle for connection, should be an IO::Socket object (::INET or ::UNIX).
timeout ( time )
Time is the time in seconds; 0 disables; undef reinitializes the current value. We generates a timeout_event when the timer expires.
init_event
Initialization event, called before anything else happens.
read_event
Data is available for reading. We buffer it up and emit lines to derived classes as line_events.
line_event ( line )
Override in derived class to process incoming data.
write( data )
Buffered write.
write_event
Write event - handle buffered writes.
timer ( enable flag )
Disable or restart inactivity timer.
timeout_event
Inactivity timeout event.
close
Remove event handlers, this will close the connection (as long as no other outstanding references exist).
closed
Return true iff socket is closed.
error( message )
Log error, subclasses may do more.
IRS( [ input record separator ] )
Get/set input record separator.
ORS( [ output record separator ] )
Get/set output record separator.
