t.i.w.Win32Reactor(posixbase.PosixReactorBase) : class documentation

Implements interfaces: twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorFDSet, twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorWin32Events

Reactor that uses Win32 event APIs.

Instance Variables	_reads	A dictionary mapping FileDescriptor instances to a win32 event object used to check for read events for that descriptor.
	_writes	A dictionary mapping FileDescriptor instances to a arbitrary value. Keys in this dictionary will be given a chance to write out their data.
	_events	A dictionary mapping win32 event object to tuples of FileDescriptor instances and event masks.
	_closedAndReading	Along with _closedAndNotReading, keeps track of descriptors which have had close notification delivered from the OS but which we have not finished reading data from. MsgWaitForMultipleObjects will only deliver close notification to us once, so we remember it in these two dictionaries until we're ready to act on it. The OS has delivered close notification for each descriptor in this dictionary, and the descriptors are marked as allowed to handle read events in the reactor, so they can be processed. When a descriptor is marked as not allowed to handle read events in the reactor (ie, it is passed to IReactorFDSet.removeReader), it is moved out of this dictionary and into _closedAndNotReading. The descriptors are keys in this dictionary. The values are arbitrary. (type: dict )
	_closedAndNotReading	These descriptors have had close notification delivered from the OS, but are not marked as allowed to handle read events in the reactor. They are saved here to record their closed state, but not processed at all. When one of these descriptors is passed to IReactorFDSet.addReader, it is moved out of this dictionary and into _closedAndReading. The descriptors are keys in this dictionary. The values are arbitrary. This is a weak key dictionary so that if an application tells the reactor to stop reading from a descriptor and then forgets about that descriptor itself, the reactor will also forget about it. (type: WeakKeyDictionary )
