Event-driven reactor class implementing the "event loop" pattern.

Macro Definition Documentation

TS_USE_NON_BLOCKING_IO

#define TS_USE_NON_BLOCKING_IO   1

This macro is defined when the Reactor uses a non-blocking I/O model.

Reactive classes which manage I/O shall repeatedly attempt I/O operations as long as they succeed. When they fail with a "would block" status, the reactive class shall request the Reactor to be notified when the I/O becomes possible.

TS_USE_ASYNCHRONOUS_IO

#define TS_USE_ASYNCHRONOUS_IO   1

This macro is defined when the Reactor uses an asynchronous I/O model.

Reactive classes which manage I/O shall start I/O operations and, if the operation completes with a "pending" status, the reactive class shall request the Reactor to be notified when the I/O completes. In the meantime, the reactive class shall ensure that the I/O buffers remain valid, as they are used in the background by the I/O.
