Re: ev_timer problem

When i register a new timer in the second thread, ev_loop still waits on epoll... Of course, this is not allowed. To resolve this problem i created a heartbeat timer in the main thread. It's not a solution, your program will just crash at different times now. Get a book about threads programming and elarn about race conditions, and how to avoid them (e.g. by using a mutex). Also refer to the threads section in the libev manual. In short, if you don't lock the loop yourself, then the only thing you can do in another thread is to call ev_async_send. Another solution - is to set timeout on sockets read/write operations. Not sure what that solves, but you need to understand thread programming and use proper locking to avoid races, otherwise your program runs into undefined behaviour (most likely, crashes). This is all documented in the libev documentation, however. -- The choice of a Deliantra, the free code+content MORPG -==- _GNU_ http://www.deliantra.net ==-- _ generation ---==---(_)__ __ __ Marc Lehmann --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / [EMAIL PROTECTED] -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ ___ libev mailing list libev@lists.schmorp.de http://lists.schmorp.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/libev
2 problems with AnyEvent::DNS
Hi, Marc Lehmann. First. 1. I create object AnyEvent::DNS: my $resolver = AnyEvent::DNS-new() 2. Resolve some hosts. 2. Fetch some urls asynchronously if it's host has been resolved. 3. remove AnyEvent::DNS object: undef $resolver; 4. I create new object AnyEvent::DNS. Resolve some host. And get problem: some old watchers rise and run old callback function in new environment. Old watchers wasn't removed after undef $resolver; and continue working. Why? Timeout dosn't work correctly in AnyEvent::DNS I think. It dosn't remove watchers. #! /usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use AnyEvent::DNS; my $resolver = AnyEvent::DNS-new(timeout = [2], server = [AnyEvent::Socket::parse_address('127.0.0.201')]); my $cv = AnyEvent-condvar(); my $resolve_sub = sub { warn mindmix.ru resolved\n; }; $resolver-resolve('mindmix.ru', 'a', accept = [a], $resolve_sub); my $timer = AnyEvent-timer( after = 1, cb = sub { warn timeout for mindmix.ru\n; $cv-send(); } ); $cv-recv(); undef $timer; undef $resolver; # here all watchers have to remove undef $resolve_sub; undef $cv; $resolver = AnyEvent::DNS-new(timeout = [2], server = [AnyEvent::Socket::parse_address('127.0.0.201')]); $cv = AnyEvent-condvar(); my $resolve_sub2 = sub { warn beon.ru resolved\n; }; $resolver-resolve('google.com', 'a', accept = [a], $resolve_sub2); $timer = AnyEvent-timer( after = 3, cb = sub { warn timeout for beon.ru\n; $cv-send(); } ); $cv-recv(); timeout for mindmix.ru mindmix.ru resolved beon.ru resolved timeout for beon.ru Why mindmix.ru resolved appear after undef $resolver; ? Second. Also some memory leaks found. Just add use Devel::Leak::Object qw(GLOBAL_bless); and run script: Tracked objects by class: AnyEvent::DNS1 Config 1 Errno1 -- Michael ___ libev mailing list libev@lists.schmorp.de http://lists.schmorp.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/libev

[this is off-topic for libev but relates to one of my other projects, namely AnyEvent - I have replied off-list] -- The choice of a Deliantra, the free code+content MORPG -==- _GNU_ http://www.deliantra.net ==-- _ generation ---==---(_)__ __ __ Marc Lehmann --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / [EMAIL PROTECTED] -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ ___ libev mailing list libev@lists.schmorp.de http://lists.schmorp.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/libev
