Although Marc Lehmann doesn't come out and say so, IO::AIO provides
two features that support its use from POE in a couple different ways.
It exposes a file descriptor, which can be used to notify select-like
loops when AIO operations are complete. For example:
# POE integration
open my $fh, "<&=" . IO::AIO::poll_fileno or die "$!";
$_[KERNEL]->select_read($fh, "aio_event");
Or you can use its callback mechanism with POE::Session's postback()
or callback():
aio_open "/etc/passwd", O_RDONLY, 0, $_[SESSION]->postback
("aio_open_event");
Whether you "should" use IO::AIO is a matter of your application's
requirements. Quite a lot of systems don't require AIO, so they
shouldn't use IO::AIO.
I hope this helps.
