Module signal_hook::iterator::backend[][src]

This is supported on non-Windows and crate feature iterator only.
Expand description

A backend module for implementing the iterator like iterator module and the asynchronous adapter crates.

This module contains generic types which abstract over the concrete IO type for the self-pipe. The motivation for having this abstraction are the adapter crates for different asynchronous runtimes. The runtimes provide their own wrappers for std::os::unix::net::UnixStream which should be used as the internal self pipe. But large parts of the remaining functionality doesn’t depend directly onto the IO type and can be reused.

See also the SignalDelivery::with_pipe method for more information about requirements the IO types have to fulfill.

As a regular user you shouldn’t need to use the types in this module. Use the Signals struct or one of the types contained in the adapter libraries instead.

Structs

A struct to control an instance of an associated type (like for example Signals).

The iterator of one batch of signals.

A struct for delivering received signals to the main program flow. The self-pipe IO type is generic. See the with_pipe method for requirements for the IO type.

An infinite iterator of received signals.

Enums

Possible results of the poll_signal function.

Type Definitions

A signal iterator which consumes a SignalDelivery instance and takes ownership of it.

A signal iterator which takes a mutable reference to a SignalDelivery instance.
