Known subclasses: twisted.internet._glibbase.PortableGlibReactorBase, twisted.internet.gtkreactor.PortableGtkReactor

Implements interfaces: twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorFDSet

A select() based reactor - runs on all POSIX platforms and on Win32.

Method __init__ Initialize file descriptor tracking dictionaries and the base class.
Method doSelect Run one iteration of the I/O monitor loop.
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 readers and writers.
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.
Instance Variable _reads A set containing FileDescriptor instances which will be checked for read events.
Instance Variable _writes A set containing FileDescriptor instances which will be checked for writability.

def __init__(self): (source)

Initialize file descriptor tracking dictionaries and the base class.

def _preenDescriptors(self): (source)
Undocumented
def doSelect(self, timeout): (source)

Run one iteration of the I/O monitor loop.

This will run all selectables who had input or output readiness waiting for them.

def _doReadOrWrite(self, selectable, method): (source)
Undocumented
def addReader(self, reader): (source)

Add a FileDescriptor for notification of data available to read.

def addWriter(self, writer): (source)

Add a FileDescriptor for notification of data available to write.

def removeReader(self, reader): (source)

Remove a Selectable for notification of data available to read.

def removeWriter(self, writer): (source)

Remove a Selectable for notification of data available to write.

def removeAll(self): (source)

Remove all readers and writers.

Should not remove reactor internal reactor connections (like a waker).

ReturnsA list of IReadDescriptor and IWriteDescriptor providers which were removed.
def getReaders(self): (source)

Return the list of file descriptors currently monitored for input events by the reactor.

Returnsthe list of file descriptors monitored for input events. (type: list of IReadDescriptor)
def getWriters(self): (source)

Return the list file descriptors currently monitored for output events by the reactor.

Returnsthe list of file descriptors monitored for output events. (type: list of IWriteDescriptor)
