= evdispatch
* http://rubyforge.org/projects/evdispatch/
== DESCRIPTION:
A high performance event based network request library. Send requests to a
background thread running an event loop based on libev. Designed to make
multiple simultaneous requests while performing other foreground tasks.
== FEATURES
* Support high concurrency HTTP requests
== PROBLEMS:
* Add support to select responses from a pipe instead of having it all buffer
directly in memory
== SYNOPSIS:
FIX (code sample of usage)
== REQUIREMENTS:
Using ruby dispatch interface:
require 'evdispatch'
# create a new dispatch loop
d = Evdispatch::Loop.new
# start the event loop thread
# send a dispatch http request and store a handle to the request
google_id = d.request_http("http://www.google.com/")
# do some processing and later on check for the response
response = d.response( google_id )
puts response[:body]
# sometime later you can stop the event loop
d.stop
== INSTALL:
sudo gem install evdispatch
