The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.

Changes for version 0.15

  • IO::Async::Set subclasses and IO::Async::Buffer have now been entirely removed.
  • CHANGES:
    • Support handle-less IO::Async::Sequencer, like ::Notifier
    • Set SO_REUSEADDR on listening sockets by default
    • Allow Loop->listen() on a plain filehandle containing a socket
    • No longer any need to explcitly call Loop->enable_childmanager
  • BUGFIXES:
    • IO::Async::Loop->_adjust_timeout actually works properly
    • Notifier->close() only runs on_closed callback if it actually closed - allows for neater cross-connected Notifiers
    • Made Notifier->want_{read,write}ready more efficient
    • Notifier->close() on a child notifier works
    • Loop->listen() should take the first successful address, rather than trying them all

Modules

a collection of modules that implement asynchronous filehandle IO
facilitates the execution of child processes

execute code asynchronously in child processes
listen on network sockets for incoming connections
core loop of the IO::Async framework
a Loop using an IO::Poll object
a Loop using the select() syscall
resynchronise diverged control flow
event callbacks for a non-blocking file descriptor
performing name resolutions asynchronously
handle a serial pipeline of requests / responses (EXPERIMENTAL)
handle POSIX signals with IO::Async-based IO
read and write buffers around an IO handle
Utility functions for use in test scripts
a queue of future timed event callbacks
