IO::Select - OO interface to the select system callSYNOPSIS
use IO::Select; $s = IO::Select->new(); $s->add(\*STDIN); $s->add($some_handle); @ready = $s->can_read($timeout); @ready = IO::Select->new(@handles)->read(0);DESCRIPTION
The IO::Select package implements an object approach to the system select function call. It allows the user to see what IO handles, see the IO::Handle manpage, are ready for reading, writing or have an error condition pending.CONSTRUCTOR
new ( [ HANDLES ] ) The constructor creates a new object and optionally initialises it with a set of handles.METHODS
add ( HANDLES ) Add the list of handles to the IO::Select object. It is these values that will be returned when an event occurs. IO::Select keeps these values in a cache which is indexed by the fileno of the handle, so if more than one handle with the same fileno is specified then only the last one is cached. Each handle can be an IO::Handle object, an integer or an array reference where the first element is a IO::Handle or an integer. remove ( HANDLES ) Remove all the given handles from the object. This method also works by the fileno of the handles. So the exact handles that were added need not be passed, just handles that have an equivalent fileno exists ( HANDLE ) Returns a true value (actually the handle itself) if it is present. Returns undef otherwise. handles Return an array of all registered handles. can_read ( [ TIMEOUT ] ) Return an array of handles that are ready for reading. TIMEOUT is the maximum amount of time to wait before returning an empty list. If TIMEOUT is not given and any handles are registered then the call will block. can_write ( [ TIMEOUT ] ) Same as can_read except check for handles that can be written to. has_error ( [ TIMEOUT ] ) Same as can_read except check for handles that have an error condition, for example EOF. count () Returns the number of handles that the object will check for when one of the can_ methods is called or the object is passed to the select static method. bits() Return the bit string suitable as argument to the core select() call. bits() Return the bit string suitable as argument to the core select() call. select ( READ, WRITE, ERROR [, TIMEOUT ] ) select is a static method, that is you call it with the package name like new. READ, WRITE and ERROR are either undef or IO::Select objects. TIMEOUT is optional and has the same effect as for the core select call. The result will be an array of 3 elements, each a reference to an array which will hold the handles that are ready for reading, writing and have error conditions respectively. Upon error an empty array is returned.EXAMPLE
Here is a short example which shows how IO::Select could be used to write a server which communicates with several sockets while also listening for more connections on a listen socket use IO::Select; use IO::Socket; $lsn = new IO::Socket::INET(Listen => 1, LocalPort => 8080); $sel = new IO::Select( $lsn ); while(@ready = $sel->can_read) { foreach $fh (@ready) { if($fh == $lsn) { # Create a new socket $new = $lsn->accept; $sel->add($new); } else { # Process socket # Maybe we have finished with the socket $sel->remove($fh); $fh->close; } } }AUTHOR
