I think that would be a good contribution that would complement Jonas'.
You'll need to discuss cooperation with him and at best Jonas would
agree to become a mentor.
Jonas agreed to become a mentor if I make this proposal
strong/interesting enough.
I've posted a couple of weeks earlier how I think that could work with
ranges: the range maintains the asynchronous state and has a queue of
already-available buffers received. The network traffic occurs in a
different thread; the range throws requests over the fence to libcurl
and libcurl throws buffers over the fence back to the range. The range
offers a seemingly synchronous interface:
foreach (line; byLineAsync("http://d-programming-language.org";))
{
... use line ...
}
except that the processing and the fetching of data occur in distinct threads.
I thought about the same.
Server-side code such as network servers etc. would also be an
interesting topic. Let me know if you're versed in the likes of
libev(ent).
I have no experience with libev/libevent, but I see no problem working
with either, after reading some exapmles or/and documentation.
