NAME
Glib::MainLoop - An event source manager
DESCRIPTION
Event-driven programs need some sort of loop which watches for events and
launches the appropriate actions. Glib::MainLoop provides this functionality.
Mainloops have context, provided by the MainContext object. For the most part
you can use the default context (see "default"), but if you want to create a
subcontext for a nested loop which doesn't have the same event sources, etc,
you can.
Event sources, attached to main contexts, watch for events to happen, and
launch appropriate actions. Glib provides a few ready-made event sources,
the Glib::Timeout, Glib::Idle, and io watch ("Glib::IO->add_watch").
Under the hood, Gtk+ adds event sources for GdkEvents to dispatch events to
your widgets. In fact, Gtk2 provides an abstraction of Glib::MainLoop (See
"Gtk2->main" and friends), so you may rarely have cause to use
Glib::MainLoop directly.
Note: As of version 1.080, the Glib module uses a custom event source to
ensure that perl's safe signal handling and the glib polling event loop
play nicely together. It is no longer necessary to install a timeout to
ensure that async signals get handled in a timely manner.
Run $callback every $interval milliseconds until $callback returns
false. Returns a source id which may be used with "Glib::Source->remove".
Note that a mainloop must be active for the timeout to execute.
Run $callback when the mainloop is idle. If $callback returns false,
it will uninstall itself, otherwise, it will run again at the next idle
iteration. Returns a source id which may be used with
"Glib::Source->remove".
* $fd (Glib::IO) file number, e.g. fileno($filehandle)
* $condition (Glib::IOCondition)
* $callback (subroutine)
* $data (scalar)
* $priority (integer)
Run $callback when there is an event on $fd that matches $condition.
The watch uninstalls itself if $callback returns false.
Returns a source id that may be used with "Glib::Source->remove".
Glib's IO channels serve the same basic purpose as Perl's file handles, so
for the most part you don't see GIOChannels in Perl. The IO watch integrates
IO operations with the main loop, which Perl file handles don't do. For
various reasons, this function requires raw file descriptors, not full
file handles. See "fileno" in perlfunc.
Find the current main loop recursion level. This is handy in fringe
situations, but those are very rare; see the C API reference for a more
in-depth discussion.
boolean = $context->pending
$loop->quit
boolean = Glib::Source->remove ($tag)
* $tag (integer)
Remove an event source. $tag is the number returned by things like
"Glib::Timeout->add", "Glib::Idle->add", and
"Glib::IO->add_watch".
$loop->run
