IO::Lambda::Socket - wrapper condition for socket functions

This module provides a set of convenient wrapper conditions for sockets that function as sources of asynchronous events. The condition names are homonyms of the underlying socket functions: "accept", "connect", "recv", and "send". The module doesn't account for much lower-lever socket machinery, the programmer is expected to create non-blocking sockets using "IO::Socket" or "Socket" modules.

TCP

        my $server = IO::Socket::INET-> new(
                Listen    => 5,
                LocalPort => 10000,
                Blocking  => 0,
                ReuseAddr => 1,
        );
        die $! unless $server;

        my $serv = lambda {
                context $server;
                accept {
                        my $conn = shift;
                        die "error:$conn\n" unless ref($conn);
                        again;
                        context getline, $conn, \(my $buf = '');

UDP

        $serv-> wait_for_all( map { connector($_) } 1..3);

accept($socket, $deadline=undef) -> ($new_socket | undef,$error)
Expects a stream $socket in a non-blocking listening state. Finishes either after a new connection arrives, or after $deadline is expired. Returns a new socket serving the new connection on success, "undef" and an error string on failure. The error string is either "timeout" or $!.

See also "accept" in perlfunc.

connect($socket, $deadline=undef) -> (()|$error)
Expects stream $socket in a non-blocking connect state. Finishes either after the connection succeeds, or after $deadline is expired. Returns no parameters on success, and an error string on failure. The error string is either "timeout" or $! (or $^E on win32).

See also "connect" in perlfunc.

recv($socket, $length, $flags=0, $deadline=undef) -> ($addr,$msg | undef,$error)
Expects a non-blocking datagram $socket. After the socket becomes readable, tries to read $length bytes using "CORE::recv" call. Returns remote address (packed) and the received message on success. Returns "undef" and an error string on failure. The error string is either "timeout" or $!.

See also "recv" in perlfunc.

send($socket, $msg, $flags, $to=undef, $deadline=undef) -> ($nbytes | undef,$error)
Expects a non-blocking datagram $socket. After the socket becomes writable, tries to write $msg using "CORE::send" call. Depending whether $to is defined or not, 4- or 3- parameter version of "CORE::send" is used. Returns number of bytes sent on success. On failure returns "undef" and an error string. The error string is either "timeout" or $!.

See also "send" in perlfunc.
