 NAME

 SYNOPSIS
        use AnyEvent;
        # if you prefer function calls, look at the AE manpage for
     $bool = $cv->ready
         Returns true when the condition is "true", i.e. whether "send" or
         "croak" have been called.
     $cb = $cv->cb ($cb->($cv))
-        This is a mutator function that returns the callback set and
+        This is a mutator function that returns the callback set (or "undef"
-        optionally replaces it before doing so.
+        if not) and optionally replaces it before doing so.
         The callback will be called when the condition becomes "true", i.e.
         when "send" or "croak" are called, with the only argument being the
         condition variable itself. If the condition is already true, the
         callback is called immediately when it is set. Calling "recv" inside
         the callback or at any later time is guaranteed not to block.
+        Additionally, when the callback is invoked, it is also removed from
+        the condvar (reset to "undef"), so the condvar does not keep a
+        reference to the callback after invocation.
 SUPPORTED EVENT LOOPS/BACKENDS
     The available backend classes are (every class has its own manpage):
     Backends that are autoprobed when no other event loop can be found.
         by the main program.
            AnyEvent::Impl::Event     based on Event, very stable, few glitches.
            AnyEvent::Impl::Glib      based on Glib, slow but very stable.
            AnyEvent::Impl::Tk        based on Tk, very broken.
+           AnyEvent::Impl::UV        based on UV, innovated square wheels.
            AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib  based on Event::Lib, leaks memory and worse.
            AnyEvent::Impl::POE       based on POE, very slow, some limitations.
            AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi     used when running within irssi.
            AnyEvent::Impl::IOAsync   based on IO::Async.
            AnyEvent::Impl::Cocoa     based on Cocoa::EventLoop.
         To understand the usefulness of this function, consider a function
         that asynchronously does something for you and returns some
         transaction object or guard to let you cancel the operation. For
         example, "AnyEvent::Socket::tcp_connect":
-           # start a conenction attempt unless one is active
+           # start a connection attempt unless one is active
            $self->{connect_guard} ||= AnyEvent::Socket::tcp_connect "www.example.net", 80, sub {
               delete $self->{connect_guard};
               ...
            };
         If you want to sprinkle loads of logging calls around your code,
         consider creating a logger callback with the "AnyEvent::Log::logger"
         function, which can reduce typing, codesize and can reduce the
         logging overhead enourmously.
+    AnyEvent::fh_block $filehandle
+    AnyEvent::fh_unblock $filehandle
+        Sets blocking or non-blocking behaviour for the given filehandle.
 WHAT TO DO IN A MODULE
     As a module author, you should "use AnyEvent" and call AnyEvent methods
     freely, but you should not load a specific event module or rely on it.
     Be careful when you create watchers in the module body - AnyEvent will
         mentioned will be used, and preference will be given to protocols
         mentioned earlier in the list.
         This variable can effectively be used for denial-of-service attacks
         against local programs (e.g. when setuid), although the impact is
-        likely small, as the program has to handle conenction and other
+        likely small, as the program has to handle connection and other
         failures anyways.
         Examples: "PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS=ipv4,ipv6" - prefer IPv4 over
         IPv6, but support both and try to use both.
         "PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS=ipv4" - only support IPv4, never try to
           my $txn = shift;
           my $data = $txn->result;
           ...
        });
-       EV::loop;
+       EV::run;
     3b. The module user could use AnyEvent, too:
        use AnyEvent;
     Development/Debugging: AnyEvent::Strict (stricter checking),
     AnyEvent::Debug (interactive shell, watcher tracing).
     Supported event modules: AnyEvent::Loop, EV, EV::Glib, Glib::EV, Event,
-    Glib::Event, Glib, Tk, Event::Lib, Qt, POE, FLTK.
+    Glib::Event, Glib, Tk, Event::Lib, Qt, POE, FLTK, Cocoa::EventLoop, UV.
     Implementations: AnyEvent::Impl::EV, AnyEvent::Impl::Event,
     AnyEvent::Impl::Glib, AnyEvent::Impl::Tk, AnyEvent::Impl::Perl,
     AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, AnyEvent::Impl::Qt, AnyEvent::Impl::POE,

+    AnyEvent::Impl::IOAsync, AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi, AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK,
+    AnyEvent::Impl::Cocoa, AnyEvent::Impl::UV.
     Non-blocking handles, pipes, stream sockets, TCP clients and servers:
     AnyEvent::Handle, AnyEvent::Socket, AnyEvent::TLS.
     Asynchronous File I/O: AnyEvent::IO.
