#initialize(options = {}) ⇒ Loop

Create a new Coolio::Loop

Options:

:skip_environment (boolean)

Ignore the $LIBEV_FLAGS environment variable

:fork_check (boolean)

Enable autodetection of forks

:backend

Choose the default backend, one (or many in an array) of:

Instance Method Details

#attach(watcher) ⇒ Object

Attach a watcher to the loop

# File 'lib/cool.io/loop.rb', line 73

def attach(watcher)
  watcher.attach self
end

#has_active_watchers? ⇒ Boolean

Does the loop have any active watchers?

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

# File 'lib/cool.io/loop.rb', line 100

def has_active_watchers?
  @active_watchers > 0
end

#run(timeout = nil) ⇒ Object

Run the event loop and dispatch events back to Ruby. If there are no watchers associated with the event loop it will return immediately. Otherwise, run will continue blocking and making event callbacks to watchers until all watchers associated with the loop have been disabled or detached. The loop may be explicitly stopped by calling the stop method on the loop object.

Raises:

  • (RuntimeError)
