py-kqueue (aka PyKQueue) is a Python module that interfaces to the kqueue(2)
|
|
and kevent(2) system calls. kqueue(2) and kevent(2) implements an
|
|
event-driven notification system, intended as a replacement for select(2) and
|
|
poll(2), which require lengthy preparation and bookkeeping to use. With
|
|
kevent(2), a list of file descriptors or other object to monitor is passed
|
|
in once, and the system returns a notification when the object triggers a
|
|
filter, such as 'ready to read data' for file descriptors. See the
|
|
manpages for details.
|
|
|
|
This Python module provides a C module and supporting Python script to
|
|
use these functions in a object-oriented manner.
