Hi, I'm implementing a python wrapper for libev, and I'd like people interested in having such an extension to help on a small design decision.
Watchers need a callback and, as I see it, we could define it in two different ways: 1/ we could require the callback to have the following signature: def callback(watcher, revents) In this case watcher would be the python watcher object, and revents a python int. In fact, it would be almost like libev does it. 2/ or we could go a more "pythonic" way, and only require that the callback signature include revents as the first arg: def callback(revents, *args, **kwargs) args and kwargs could be provided at __init__ or by calling the set_callback method. I implemented both to test, and there is not much difference between them in terms of speed or functionnality. I'm tempted to follow the easy path and go the libev way. Any comment/idea/critic/suggestion will be greatly appreciated. malek _______________________________________________ libev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.schmorp.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/libev
