510"nothing better to do" is usually defined to be "no other events need
511attention by the event loop".

515events. Instead of blocking, the idle watcher is invoked. 516invoked only when there is "nothing better to do", which is usually
517defined as "all outstanding events have been handled and no new events
518have been detected". That means that idle watchers ideally get invoked
519when the event loop has just polled for new events but none have been
520detected. Instead of blocking to wait for more events, the idle watchers
521will be invoked.

1088
1089Implement event-based interfaces to the protocols of the same name (for
1090the curious, IGS is the International Go Server and FCP is the Freenet
1091Client Protocol).
1092
1093=item L<AnyEvent::Handle::UDP>
1094
1095Here be danger!
1096
1097As Pauli would put it, "Not only is it not right, it's not even wrong!" -
1098there are so many things wrong with AnyEvent::Handle::UDP, most notably
1099it's use of a stream-based API with a protocol that isn't streamable, that
1100the only way to improve it is to delete it.
1101
1102It features data corruption (but typically only under load) and general
1103confusion. On top, the author is not only clueless about UDP but also
1104fact-resistant - some gems of his understanding: "connect doesn't work
1105with UDP", "UDP packets are not IP packets", "UDP only has datagrams, not
1106packets", "I don't need to implement proper error checking as UDP doesn't
1107support error checking" and so on - he doesn't even understand what's
1108wrong with his module when it is explained to him.
1109
1081=item L<AnyEvent::HTTP> 1110=item L<AnyEvent::DBI>

1117Truly asynchronous (as opposed to non-blocking) I/O, should be in the
1118toolbox of every event programmer. AnyEvent::AIO transparently fuses
1119L<IO::AIO> and AnyEvent together, giving AnyEvent access to event-based
1120file I/O, and much more.
