Documentation
timeoutAdd :: IO Bool -> Int -> IO HandlerId Source
Sets a function to be called at regular intervals, with the default priority priorityDefault. The function is called repeatedly until it returns False, after which point the timeout function will not be called again. The first call to the function will be at the end of the first interval.
Note that timeout functions may be delayed, due to the processing of other event sources. Thus they should not be relied on for precise timing. After each call to the timeout function, the time of the next timeout is recalculated based on the current time and the given interval (it does not try to 'catch up' time lost in delays).
timeoutAddFull :: IO Bool -> Priority -> Int -> IO HandlerId Source
Sets a function to be called at regular intervals, with the given priority. The function is called repeatedly until it returns False, after which point the timeout function will not be called again. The first call to the function will be at the end of the first interval.
Note that timeout functions may be delayed, due to the processing of other event sources. Thus they should not be relied on for precise timing. After each call to the timeout function, the time of the next timeout is recalculated based on the current time and the given interval (it does not try to 'catch up' time lost in delays).
timeoutRemove :: HandlerId -> IO () Source
Remove a previously added timeout handler by its HandlerId.
idleAdd :: IO Bool -> Priority -> IO HandlerId Source
Add a callback that is called whenever the system is idle.
- A priority can be specified via an integer. This should usually be
priorityDefaultIdle. - If the function returns
Falseit will be removed.
idleRemove :: HandlerId -> IO () Source
Remove a previously added idle handler by its HandlerId.
data IOCondition Source
Flags representing a condition to watch for on a file descriptor.
IOIn- There is data to read.
IOOut- Data can be written (without blocking).
IOPri- There is urgent data to read.
IOErr- Error condition.
IOHup- Hung up (the connection has been broken, usually for pipes and sockets).
IOInvalid- Invalid request. The file descriptor is not open.
Arguments
| :: FD | a file descriptor |
| -> [IOCondition] | the condition to watch for |
| -> Priority | the priority of the event source |
| -> IO Bool | the function to call when the condition is satisfied. The function should return False if the event source should be removed. |
| -> IO HandlerId | the event source id |
Adds the file descriptor into the main event loop with the given priority.
inputRemove :: HandlerId -> IO () Source
priorityLow :: Int Source
Arguments
| :: Maybe MainContext |
|
| -> Bool |
|
| -> IO MainLoop | the new |
Create a new MainLoop.
mainLoopRun :: MainLoop -> IO () Source
Runs a main loop until mainLoopQuit is called on the loop. If this is called for the thread of the loop's MainContext, it will process events from the loop, otherwise it will simply wait.
mainLoopQuit :: MainLoop -> IO () Source
Stops a MainLoop from running. Any calls to mainLoopRun for the loop will return.
mainLoopIsRunning :: MainLoop -> IO Bool Source
Checks to see if the main loop is currently being run via mainLoopRun.
data MainContext Source
An opaque datatype representing a set of sources to be handled in a main loop.
mainContextNew :: IO MainContext Source
Creates a new MainContext.
mainContextDefault :: MainContext Source
The default MainContext. This is the main context used for main loop functions when a main loop is not explicitly specified.
mainContextIteration :: MainContext -> Bool -> IO Bool Source
Runs a single iteration for the given main loop. This involves checking to see if any event sources are ready to be processed, then if no events sources are ready and mayBlock is True, waiting for a source to become ready, then dispatching the highest priority events sources that are ready. Note that even when mayBlock is True, it is still possible for mainContextIteration to return (0), since the the wait may be interrupted for other reasons than an event source becoming ready.
