you mean when I refer to poll/select? It's just exemplifying the problem, I'm not saying people must use that with EFL... I say "EFL (Ecore) uses poll/select as core for its main loop, converting signals in a safe way." it's just to prove a point, it's not trying to explain the ecore internals on every platform, otherwise I'd need to explain MacOS, libuv, glib, PS1Light and all the other implementations we have. >> rather use EFL >> primitives such as the main loop.

It uses ecore (Efl_Loop), creating idlers or jobs/0-timers when the function needs to run. -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri -------------------------------------- Mobile: +55 (16) 99354-9890 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
