Net::Clacks::Server - server for CLACKS interprocess messaging
use Net::Clacks::Server;
This implements the server for the CLACKS interprocess messaging protocol. It supports Interclacks mode, for a master/client server architecture.
Create a new instance.
DEPRECATED: Initialize server instance (required before running). This is now a dummy function that will show a deprecation warning and return. Initialization is now done automatically when calling run().
Run the server instance in it's own event loop. Only returns when server is shutdown.
Run through the event loop once. This allows you to use your own programs event loop, and call runOnce a couple of times per second. It is a good idea to call runShutdown() to cleanly disconnect clients before exiting your program. runOnce() returns a "work count" number, on which you *may* decide on how busy the server is and when to call runOnce() next.
Shuts down all connections. This is called automatically if you use run(), but not if you use runOnce()
Please make sure and read the documentations for Net::Clacks as it contains important information pertaining to upgrades and general changes!
