EvEmbed::__construct — Constructs the EvEmbed object

Beschreibung

public EvEmbed::__construct(
     object $other ,
     callable $callback = ?,
     mixed $data = ?,
     int $priority = ?
)

This is a rather advanced watcher type that lets to embed one event loop into another(currently only IO events are supported in the embedded loop, other types of watchers might be handled in a delayed or incorrect fashion and must not be used).

See » the libev documentation for details.

This watcher is most useful on BSD systems without working kqueue to still be able to handle a large number of sockets. See example below.

Parameter-Liste

other: Instance of EvLoop . The loop to embed, this loop must be embeddable(see Ev::embeddableBackends() ).
callback: See Watcher callbacks .
data: Custom data associated with the watcher.
priority: Watcher priority

Beispiele

Beispiel #1 Embedding loop created with kqueue backend into the default loop


<?php
/*
 * Check if kqueue is available but not recommended and create a kqueue backend
 * for use with sockets (which usually work with any kqueue implementation).
 * Store the kqueue/socket-only event loop in loop_socket. (One might optionally
 * use EVFLAG_NOENV, too)
 *
 * Example borrowed from
 * http://pod.tst.eu/http://cvs.schmorp.de/libev/ev.pod#Examples_CONTENT-9
