Has there been much interest in an IOCP port for libevent? I would certainly be interested. I even started working on a rough port, but as mentioned IOCP is proactive rather than reactive, (ie you tell it how much to read/send and the event tells you that) and it got rather awkward pretty quickly. It might be worth finding some way to wrap the IOCP structures in a module/class that behaves a little more like standard sockets so it would be easier to integrate.....
Y might wish to look at ACE-library and its Proactor pattern, wish known to be very robust on windows. This is C++, however. http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE.html -- Sincerely, ------------------------------------------------------------------ Robert Iakobashvili, coroberti at gmail dot com Navigare necesse est, vivere non est necesse. ------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Libevent-users mailing list Libevent-users@monkey.org http://monkey.org/mailman/listinfo/libevent-users
