A reactor for integrating with CFRunLoop, the CoreFoundation main loop used by MacOS X.
This is useful for integrating Twisted with PyObjC applications.| Class | CFReactor | The CoreFoundation reactor. |
| Function | install | Configure the twisted mainloop to be run inside CFRunLoop. |
| Class | _WakerPlus | The normal Twisted waker will simply wake up the main loop, which causes
an iteration to run, which in turn causes
PosixReactorBase.runUntilCurrent to get invoked.
|
| Parameters | runLoop | the run loop to use. |
| runner | the function to call in order to actually invoke the main loop. This
will default to CFRunLoopRun if not specified. However, this
is not an appropriate choice for GUI applications, as you need to run
NSApplicationMain (or something like it). For example, to run the Twisted
mainloop in a PyObjC application, your main.py should look
something like this:
from PyObjCTools import AppHelper from twisted.internet.cfreactor import install install(runner=AppHelper.runEventLoop) # initialize your application reactor.run() | |
| Returns | The installed reactor.
