Detailed Description

Experimental - A serial execution context.

Event handler functions associated with a single proton::connection are called in sequence. The connection's event_loop allows you to "inject" extra work from any thread, and have it executed in the same sequence.

Examples:

mt/epoll_container.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

bool inject

(

void_function0 &

f

)

Arrange to have f() called in the event_loop's sequence: possibly deferred, possibly in another thread.

Returns

true if f() has or will be called, false if the event_loop is ended and f() cannot be injected.

Examples:

mt/epoll_container.cpp.

bool inject

(

std::function< void()>

f

)

Arrange to have f() called in the event_loop's sequence: possibly deferred, possibly in another thread.

Returns

true if f() has or will be called, false if the event_loop is ended and f() cannot be injected.

operator bool ( ) const

inlineexplicit

When using C++11 (or later) you can use event_loop in a bool context to indicate if there is an event loop set.
