I believe poll can be used on any file descriptor, not only sockets.
It is generic socket/fds callback infrastructure, it is very
similar to socket callbacks we already have in sockcallback.c.
Does not make sense to have both, they duplicating each other
Hm... on the first glance, yes... I think the benefit of
"task" interaface is that it's more genral in terms of
the API. Actually, one could re-write the latter with the
former, as I can see.
The sockcallback exports just two/three calls:
Ns_SockCallback
Ns_SockCancelCallback
Ns_SockCancelCallbackEx
whereas the task is much more elaborate.
The question is who would benefit from task interface?
Are there any immediate ideas?
For what they (AS) wrote it for?
What can it do what Tcl event loop can't?
