NAME

POE::Pipe - common functions for POE::Pipe::OneWay and ::TwoWay

SYNOPSIS

  None.

DESCRIPTION

POE::Pipe contains some helper functions to create a socketpair out of discrete Internet sockets. It's used by POE::Pipe::OneWay and POE::Pipe::TwoWay as a last resort if pipe() and socketpair() fail.

BUGS

The functions implemented here die outright upon failure, requiring eval{} around their calls.
