I've taken a look at splat.d but it seems to be very outdated, so that's
why I went ahead and asked here as I'd probably have to end up writing
my own wrapper.
I was actually working on this in a new event loop for vibe.d here:
https://github.com/globecsys/vibe.d/tree/native-events/source/vibe/core/events
I've left it without activity for a week b/c I'm currently busy making a
(closed source) SSL library to replace openSSL in my projects, but I'll
return to this one project here within a couple weeks at most.
It doesn't build yet, but you can probably use some of it at least as a
reference, it took me a while to harvest the info on windows and linux
kernels for async I/O. Some interesting parts like that which you wanted
are found here:
https://github.com/globecsys/vibe.d/blob/native-events/source/vibe/core/events/epoll.d#L403
I think I was at handling a new connection or incoming data though, so
you won't find accept() or read callbacks, but with it I think it was
pretty much ready for async TCP.
But of course, nothing stops you from using vibe.d with libevent ;)
