t.i.p.PollReactor(posixbase.PosixReactorBase) : class documentation

Part of twisted.internet.pollreactor View Source View In Hierarchy

Implements interfaces: twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorFDSet

A reactor that uses poll(2).
Instance Variables_pollerA poll which will be used to check for I/O readiness.
_selectablesA dictionary mapping integer file descriptors to instances of FileDescriptor which have been registered with the reactor. All FileDescriptors which are currently receiving read or write readiness notifications will be present as values in this dictionary.
_readsA dictionary mapping integer file descriptors to arbitrary values (this is essentially a set). Keys in this dictionary will be registered with _poller for read readiness notifications which will be dispatched to the corresponding FileDescriptor instances in _selectables.
_writesA dictionary mapping integer file descriptors to arbitrary values (this is essentially a set). Keys in this dictionary will be registered with _poller for write readiness notifications which will be dispatched to the corresponding FileDescriptor instances in _selectables.
Method __init__ Initialize polling object, file descriptor tracking dictionaries, and the base class.
Method addReader Add a FileDescriptor for notification of data available to read.
Method addWriter Add a FileDescriptor for notification of data available to write.
Method removeReader Remove a Selectable for notification of data available to read.
Method removeWriter Remove a Selectable for notification of data available to write.
Method removeAll Remove all selectables, and return a list of them.
Method doPoll Poll the poller for new events.
Method getReaders Return the list of file descriptors currently monitored for input events by the reactor.
Method getWriters Return the list file descriptors currently monitored for output events by the reactor.
Method _updateRegistration Register/unregister an fd with the poller.
Method _dictRemove Undocumented
Method _doReadOrWrite Undocumented

Inherited from PosixReactorBase:

Method installWaker Install a `waker' to allow threads and signals to wake up the IO thread.

Method listenWith Undocumented
Method connectWith Undocumented
Method _disconnectSelectable Utility function for disconnecting a selectable.
Method _handleSignals Extend the basic signal handling logic to also support handling SIGCHLD to know when to try to reap child processes.
Method _uninstallHandler If a child waker was created and installed, uninstall it now.
Method _removeAll Remove all readers and writers, and list of removed IReadDescriptors and IWriteDescriptors.

Inherited from _SignalReactorMixin (via PosixReactorBase):

Method startRunning Extend the base implementation in order to remember whether signal handlers should be installed later.
Method run Undocumented
Method mainLoop Undocumented
Method _reallyStartRunning Extend the base implementation by also installing signal handlers, if self._installSignalHandlers is true.

Inherited from ReactorBase (via PosixReactorBase):

Method installResolver Set the internal resolver to use to for name lookups.

Method doIteration Do one iteration over the readers and writers which have been added.
Method resolve Return a Deferred that will resolve a hostname.
Method stop See twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorCore.stop.
Method crash See twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorCore.crash.
Method sigInt Handle a SIGINT interrupt.
Method sigBreak Handle a SIGBREAK interrupt.
Method sigTerm Handle a SIGTERM interrupt.
Method disconnectAll Disconnect every reader, and writer in the system.
