<p>
- This is the Excalibur Event package which includes event queues,
- asynchronous command processing, and the interfaces to support
- event based programming. Event is heavily influenced by Matt
- Welsh's work with the
- <fork href="http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~mdw/proj/seda/";>SEDA
architecture</fork>.
- We forked the portion of his SandStorm server that had to do with
- event processing. From there we cleaned up the API and made it as
- generic as we could.
- </p>
- <p>
- The Event package actually has five related sub packages inside
- of it. Event is the basic interfaces for the Queues, Sinks,
- Sources, etc. Command houses code for the CommandManager so that
- your code can safely process Commands (a type of event) in the
- background. MPool, short for Managed Pool, houses code for a
- pool implementation that manages its size asynchronously so you
- don't have to worry about it. Thread is the thread pool code
- which uses MPool to keep track of the threads. Lastly, Util
- provides some basic utilities so that we can programatically
- determine the number of processors your hardware has.
+ This will be going away really soon, so I do not want
+ you to get used to using it. We have a plan in place
+ to make MPool and Thread work happily together.
