libevent-distributor-perl 0.06-1 (riscv64 binary) in ubuntu oracular
Instances of the Event::Distributor class provide a simple publish/subscribe
mechanism within a single process, for either synchronous or Future-based
asynchronous use.
.
A given instance has a set of named events. Subscribers are CODE references
attached to a named event. Publishers can declare the existence of a named
event, and then later invoke it by passing in arguments, which are
distributed to all of the subscribers of that named event.
.
It is specifically not an error to request to subscribe an event that has not
yet been declared, in order to allow multiple modules of code to be loaded
and subscribe events the others publish, without introducing loading order
dependencies. An event only needs to be declared by the time it is fired.
.
Natively all of the events provided by the distributor are fully-asynchronous
in nature. Each subscriber is expected to return a Future instance which will
indicate its completion; the results of these are merged into a single future
returned by the fire method itself. However, to support synchronous or
semi-synchronous programs using it, both the observe and invoke methods also
have a synchronous variant. Note however, that this module does not provide
any kind of asynchronous detachment of synchronous functions; using the
/subscribe_sync method to subscribe a long-running blocking function will
cause the fire_* methods to block until that method returns. To achieve a
truely-
of asynchronous event system.
