ocean.io.select.client.SelectEvent

Custom event which can be registered with the EpollSelectDispatcher.

An instance of this class can be registered with an EpollSelectDispatcher, and triggered at will, causing it to be selected in the select loop. When it is selected, a user-specified callback (given in the class' constructor) is invoked.

Two versions of the class exist, one which counts the number of calls to trigger() before the callback is invoked (and passes the count to the callback), and one which does not keep a count.

Usage example:

import ocean.io.select.client.SelectEvent;
import ocean.io.select.EpollSelectDispatcher;

// Event handler
void handler ( )
{
    // Do something
}

auto dispatcher = new EpollSelectDispatcher;
auto event = new SelectEvent(&handler);

dispatcher.register(event);

dispatcher.eventLoop();

// At this point, any time event.trigger is called, the eventLoop will
// select the event and invoke its handler callback.
