(description
|
||||
"@code{Async::Interrupt} implements a single feature only of interest
|
||||
to advanced perl modules, namely asynchronous interruptions (think \"UNIX
|
||||
signals\", which are very similar).
|
||||
|
||||
Sometimes, modules wish to run code asynchronously (in another thread,
|
||||
or from a signal handler), and then signal the perl interpreter on
|
||||
certain events. One common way is to write some data to a pipe and use
|
||||
an event handling toolkit to watch for I/O events. Another way is to
|
||||
send a signal. Those methods are slow, and in the case of a pipe, also
|
||||
not asynchronous - it won't interrupt a running perl interpreter.
|
||||
|
||||
This module implements asynchronous notifications that enable you to
|
||||
signal running perl code from another thread, asynchronously, and
|
||||
sometimes even without using a single syscall.")
