46 =head1 DESCRIPTION
47
48 This module is a helper module to make it easier to do event-based I/O on
49 filehandles.
50
51 The L<AnyEvent::Intro> tutorial contains some well-documented
52 AnyEvent::Handle examples.
53
54 In the following, when the documentation refers to of "bytes" then this
55 means characters. As sysread and syswrite are used for all I/O, their
56 treatment of characters applies to this module as well.
57
58 At the very minimum, you should specify C<fh> or C<connect>, and the
59 C<on_error> callback.
60
61 All callbacks will be invoked with the handle object as their first
62 argument.
63
64 =head1 METHODS
65
66 =over 4
67
68 =item $handle = B<new> AnyEvent::TLS fh => $filehandle, key => value...
69
70 The constructor supports these arguments (all as C<< key => value >> pairs).
71
72 =over 4
73
74 =item fh => $filehandle [C<fh> or C<connect> MANDATORY]
75
76 The filehandle this L<AnyEvent::Handle> object will operate on.
77 NOTE: The filehandle will be set to non-blocking mode (using
78 C<AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking>) by the constructor and needs to stay in
79 that mode.
80
81 =item connect => [$host, $service] [C<fh> or C<connect> MANDATORY]
82
83 Try to connect to the specified host and service (port), using
84 C<AnyEvent::Socket::tcp_connect>. The C<$host> additionally becomes the
85 default C<peername>.
86
87 You have to specify either this parameter, or C<fh>, above.
88
89 It is possible to push requests on the read and write queues, and modify
90 properties of the stream, even while AnyEvent::Handle is connecting.
91
92 When this parameter is specified, then the C<on_prepare>,
93 C<on_connect_error> and C<on_connect> callbacks will be called under the
94 appropriate circumstances:
95
96 =over 4
97
98 =item on_prepare => $cb->($handle)
99
100 This (rarely used) callback is called before a new connection is
101 attempted, but after the file handle has been created. It could be used to
102 prepare the file handle with parameters required for the actual connect
103 (as opposed to settings that can be changed when the connection is already
104 established).
105
106 The return value of this callback should be the connect timeout value in
107 seconds (or C<0>, or C<undef>, or the empty list, to indicate the default
108 timeout is to be used).
109
110 =item on_connect => $cb->($handle, $host, $port, $retry->())
111
112 This callback is called when a connection has been successfully established.
113
114 The actual numeric host and port (the socket peername) are passed as
115 parameters, together with a retry callback.
116
117 When, for some reason, the handle is not acceptable, then calling
118 C<$retry> will continue with the next conenction target (in case of
119 multi-homed hosts or SRV records there can be multiple connection
120 endpoints). When it is called then the read and write queues, eof status,
121 tls status and similar properties of the handle are being reset.
122
123 In most cases, ignoring the C<$retry> parameter is the way to go.
124
125 =item on_connect_error => $cb->($handle, $message)
126
127 This callback is called when the conenction could not be
128 established. C<$!> will contain the relevant error code, and C<$message> a
129 message describing it (usually the same as C<"$!">).
130
131 If this callback isn't specified, then C<on_error> will be called with a
132 fatal error instead.
133
134 =back
135
136 =item on_error => $cb->($handle, $fatal, $message)
137
138 This is the error callback, which is called when, well, some error
139 occured, such as not being able to resolve the hostname, failure to
140 connect or a read error.
141
142 Some errors are fatal (which is indicated by C<$fatal> being true). On
143 fatal errors the handle object will be destroyed (by a call to C<< ->
144 destroy >>) after invoking the error callback (which means you are free to
145 examine the handle object). Examples of fatal errors are an EOF condition
146 with active (but unsatisifable) read watchers (C<EPIPE>) or I/O errors. In
147 cases where the other side can close the connection at their will it is
148 often easiest to not report C<EPIPE> errors in this callback.
149
150 AnyEvent::Handle tries to find an appropriate error code for you to check
151 against, but in some cases (TLS errors), this does not work well. It is
152 recommended to always output the C<$message> argument in human-readable
153 error messages (it's usually the same as C<"$!">).
154
155 Non-fatal errors can be retried by simply returning, but it is recommended
156 to simply ignore this parameter and instead abondon the handle object
157 when this callback is invoked. Examples of non-fatal errors are timeouts
158 C<ETIMEDOUT>) or badly-formatted data (C<EBADMSG>).
159
160 On callback entrance, the value of C<$!> contains the operating system
161 error code (or C<ENOSPC>, C<EPIPE>, C<ETIMEDOUT>, C<EBADMSG> or
162 C<EPROTO>).
163
164 While not mandatory, it is I<highly> recommended to set this callback, as
165 you will not be notified of errors otherwise. The default simply calls
166 C<croak>.
167
168 =item on_read => $cb->($handle)
169
170 This sets the default read callback, which is called when data arrives
171 and no read request is in the queue (unlike read queue callbacks, this
172 callback will only be called when at least one octet of data is in the
173 read buffer).
174
175 To access (and remove data from) the read buffer, use the C<< ->rbuf >>
176 method or access the C<< $handle->{rbuf} >> member directly. Note that you
177 must not enlarge or modify the read buffer, you can only remove data at
178 the beginning from it.
179
180 When an EOF condition is detected then AnyEvent::Handle will first try to
181 feed all the remaining data to the queued callbacks and C<on_read> before
182 calling the C<on_eof> callback. If no progress can be made, then a fatal
183 error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<EPIPE>).
184
185 Note that, unlike requests in the read queue, an C<on_read> callback
186 doesn't mean you I<require> some data: if there is an EOF and there
187 are outstanding read requests then an error will be flagged. With an
188 C<on_read> callback, the C<on_eof> callback will be invoked.
189
190 =item on_eof => $cb->($handle)
191
192 Set the callback to be called when an end-of-file condition is detected,
193 i.e. in the case of a socket, when the other side has closed the
194 connection cleanly, and there are no outstanding read requests in the
195 queue (if there are read requests, then an EOF counts as an unexpected
196 connection close and will be flagged as an error).
197
198 For sockets, this just means that the other side has stopped sending data,
199 you can still try to write data, and, in fact, one can return from the EOF
200 callback and continue writing data, as only the read part has been shut
201 down.
202
203 If an EOF condition has been detected but no C<on_eof> callback has been
204 set, then a fatal error will be raised with C<$!> set to <0>.
205
206 =item on_drain => $cb->($handle)
207
208 This sets the callback that is called when the write buffer becomes empty
209 (or when the callback is set and the buffer is empty already).
210
211 To append to the write buffer, use the C<< ->push_write >> method.
212
213 This callback is useful when you don't want to put all of your write data
214 into the queue at once, for example, when you want to write the contents
215 of some file to the socket you might not want to read the whole file into
216 memory and push it into the queue, but instead only read more data from
217 the file when the write queue becomes empty.
218
219 =item timeout => $fractional_seconds
220
221 If non-zero, then this enables an "inactivity" timeout: whenever this many
222 seconds pass without a successful read or write on the underlying file
223 handle, the C<on_timeout> callback will be invoked (and if that one is
224 missing, a non-fatal C<ETIMEDOUT> error will be raised).
225
226 Note that timeout processing is also active when you currently do not have
227 any outstanding read or write requests: If you plan to keep the connection
228 idle then you should disable the timout temporarily or ignore the timeout
229 in the C<on_timeout> callback, in which case AnyEvent::Handle will simply
230 restart the timeout.
231
232 Zero (the default) disables this timeout.
233
234 =item on_timeout => $cb->($handle)
235
236 Called whenever the inactivity timeout passes. If you return from this
237 callback, then the timeout will be reset as if some activity had happened,
238 so this condition is not fatal in any way.
239
240 =item rbuf_max => <bytes>
241
242 If defined, then a fatal error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<ENOSPC>)
243 when the read buffer ever (strictly) exceeds this size. This is useful to
244 avoid some forms of denial-of-service attacks.
245
246 For example, a server accepting connections from untrusted sources should
247 be configured to accept only so-and-so much data that it cannot act on
248 (for example, when expecting a line, an attacker could send an unlimited
249 amount of data without a callback ever being called as long as the line
250 isn't finished).
251
252 =item autocork => <boolean>
253
254 When disabled (the default), then C<push_write> will try to immediately
255 write the data to the handle, if possible. This avoids having to register
256 a write watcher and wait for the next event loop iteration, but can
257 be inefficient if you write multiple small chunks (on the wire, this
258 disadvantage is usually avoided by your kernel's nagle algorithm, see
259 C<no_delay>, but this option can save costly syscalls).
260
261 When enabled, then writes will always be queued till the next event loop
262 iteration. This is efficient when you do many small writes per iteration,
263 but less efficient when you do a single write only per iteration (or when
264 the write buffer often is full). It also increases write latency.
265
266 =item no_delay => <boolean>
267
268 When doing small writes on sockets, your operating system kernel might
269 wait a bit for more data before actually sending it out. This is called
270 the Nagle algorithm, and usually it is beneficial.
271
272 In some situations you want as low a delay as possible, which can be
273 accomplishd by setting this option to a true value.
274
275 The default is your opertaing system's default behaviour (most likely
276 enabled), this option explicitly enables or disables it, if possible.
277
278 =item read_size => <bytes>
279
280 The default read block size (the amount of bytes this module will
281 try to read during each loop iteration, which affects memory
282 requirements). Default: C<8192>.
283
284 =item low_water_mark => <bytes>
285
286 Sets the amount of bytes (default: C<0>) that make up an "empty" write
287 buffer: If the write reaches this size or gets even samller it is
288 considered empty.
289
290 Sometimes it can be beneficial (for performance reasons) to add data to
291 the write buffer before it is fully drained, but this is a rare case, as
292 the operating system kernel usually buffers data as well, so the default
293 is good in almost all cases.
294
295 =item linger => <seconds>
296
297 If non-zero (default: C<3600>), then the destructor of the
298 AnyEvent::Handle object will check whether there is still outstanding
299 write data and will install a watcher that will write this data to the
300 socket. No errors will be reported (this mostly matches how the operating
301 system treats outstanding data at socket close time).
302
303 This will not work for partial TLS data that could not be encoded
304 yet. This data will be lost. Calling the C<stoptls> method in time might
305 help.
306
307 =item peername => $string
308
309 A string used to identify the remote site - usually the DNS hostname
310 (I<not> IDN!) used to create the connection, rarely the IP address.
311
312 Apart from being useful in error messages, this string is also used in TLS
313 peername verification (see C<verify_peername> in L<AnyEvent::TLS>). This
314 verification will be skipped when C<peername> is not specified or
315 C<undef>.
316
317 =item tls => "accept" | "connect" | Net::SSLeay::SSL object
318
319 When this parameter is given, it enables TLS (SSL) mode, that means
320 AnyEvent will start a TLS handshake as soon as the conenction has been
321 established and will transparently encrypt/decrypt data afterwards.
322
323 All TLS protocol errors will be signalled as C<EPROTO>, with an
324 appropriate error message.
325
326 TLS mode requires Net::SSLeay to be installed (it will be loaded
327 automatically when you try to create a TLS handle): this module doesn't
328 have a dependency on that module, so if your module requires it, you have
329 to add the dependency yourself.
330
331 Unlike TCP, TLS has a server and client side: for the TLS server side, use
332 C<accept>, and for the TLS client side of a connection, use C<connect>
333 mode.
334
335 You can also provide your own TLS connection object, but you have
336 to make sure that you call either C<Net::SSLeay::set_connect_state>
337 or C<Net::SSLeay::set_accept_state> on it before you pass it to
338 AnyEvent::Handle. Also, this module will take ownership of this connection
339 object.
340
341 At some future point, AnyEvent::Handle might switch to another TLS
342 implementation, then the option to use your own session object will go
343 away.
344
345 B<IMPORTANT:> since Net::SSLeay "objects" are really only integers,
346 passing in the wrong integer will lead to certain crash. This most often
347 happens when one uses a stylish C<< tls => 1 >> and is surprised about the
348 segmentation fault.
349
350 See the C<< ->starttls >> method for when need to start TLS negotiation later.
351
352 =item tls_ctx => $anyevent_tls
353
354 Use the given C<AnyEvent::TLS> object to create the new TLS connection
355 (unless a connection object was specified directly). If this parameter is
356 missing, then AnyEvent::Handle will use C<AnyEvent::Handle::TLS_CTX>.
357
358 Instead of an object, you can also specify a hash reference with C<< key
359 => value >> pairs. Those will be passed to L<AnyEvent::TLS> to create a
360 new TLS context object.
361
362 =item on_starttls => $cb->($handle, $success[, $error_message])
363
364 This callback will be invoked when the TLS/SSL handshake has finished. If
365 C<$success> is true, then the TLS handshake succeeded, otherwise it failed
366 (C<on_stoptls> will not be called in this case).
367
368 The session in C<< $handle->{tls} >> can still be examined in this
369 callback, even when the handshake was not successful.
370
371 TLS handshake failures will not cause C<on_error> to be invoked when this
372 callback is in effect, instead, the error message will be passed to C<on_starttls>.
373
374 Without this callback, handshake failures lead to C<on_error> being
375 called, as normal.
376
377 Note that you cannot call C<starttls> right again in this callback. If you
378 need to do that, start an zero-second timer instead whose callback can
379 then call C<< ->starttls >> again.
380
381 =item on_stoptls => $cb->($handle)
382
383 When a SSLv3/TLS shutdown/close notify/EOF is detected and this callback is
384 set, then it will be invoked after freeing the TLS session. If it is not,
385 then a TLS shutdown condition will be treated like a normal EOF condition
386 on the handle.
387
388 The session in C<< $handle->{tls} >> can still be examined in this
389 callback.
390
391 This callback will only be called on TLS shutdowns, not when the
392 underlying handle signals EOF.
393
394 =item json => JSON or JSON::XS object
395
396 This is the json coder object used by the C<json> read and write types.
397
398 If you don't supply it, then AnyEvent::Handle will create and use a
399 suitable one (on demand), which will write and expect UTF-8 encoded JSON
400 texts.
401
402 Note that you are responsible to depend on the JSON module if you want to
403 use this functionality, as AnyEvent does not have a dependency itself.

678
679 AnyEvent::Handle manages two queues per handle, one for writing and one
680 for reading.
681
682 The write queue is very simple: you can add data to its end, and
683 AnyEvent::Handle will automatically try to get rid of it for you.
684
685 When data could be written and the write buffer is shorter then the low
686 water mark, the C<on_drain> callback will be invoked.

797
798 An octet string prefixed with an encoded length. The encoding C<$format>
799 uses the same format as a Perl C<pack> format, but must specify a single
800 integer only (only one of C<cCsSlLqQiInNvVjJw> is allowed, plus an
801 optional C<!>, C<< < >> or C<< > >> modifier).

810
811 =item json => $array_or_hashref
812
813 Encodes the given hash or array reference into a JSON object. Unless you
814 provide your own JSON object, this means it will be encoded to JSON text
815 in UTF-8.
816
817 JSON objects (and arrays) are self-delimiting, so you can write JSON at
818 one end of a handle and read them at the other end without using any
819 additional framing.
820
821 The generated JSON text is guaranteed not to contain any newlines: While
822 this module doesn't need delimiters after or between JSON texts to be
823 able to read them, many other languages depend on that.
824
825 A simple RPC protocol that interoperates easily with others is to send
826 JSON arrays (or objects, although arrays are usually the better choice as
827 they mimic how function argument passing works) and a newline after each
828 JSON text:
829
830 $handle->push_write (json => ["method", "arg1", "arg2"]); # whatever
831 $handle->push_write ("\012");
832
833 An AnyEvent::Handle receiver would simply use the C<json> read type and
834 rely on the fact that the newline will be skipped as leading whitespace:
835
836 $handle->push_read (json => sub { my $array = $_[1]; ... });
837
838 Other languages could read single lines terminated by a newline and pass
839 this line into their JSON decoder of choice.

869 =item $handle->push_shutdown
870
871 Sometimes you know you want to close the socket after writing your data
872 before it was actually written. One way to do that is to replace your
873 C<on_drain> handler by a callback that shuts down the socket (and set
874 C<low_water_mark> to C<0>). This method is a shorthand for just that, and
875 replaces the C<on_drain> callback with:
876
877 sub { shutdown $_[0]{fh}, 1 } # for push_shutdown
878
879 This simply shuts down the write side and signals an EOF condition to the
880 the peer.
881
882 You can rely on the normal read queue and C<on_eof> handling
883 afterwards. This is the cleanest way to close a connection.
884

892 }
893
894 =item AnyEvent::Handle::register_write_type type => $coderef->($handle, @args)
895
896 This function (not method) lets you add your own types to C<push_write>.
897 Whenever the given C<type> is used, C<push_write> will invoke the code
898 reference with the handle object and the remaining arguments.
899
900 The code reference is supposed to return a single octet string that will
901 be appended to the write buffer.
902
903 Note that this is a function, and all types registered this way will be
904 global, so try to use unique names.

912 =head2 READ QUEUE
913
914 AnyEvent::Handle manages two queues per handle, one for writing and one
915 for reading.
916
917 The read queue is more complex than the write queue. It can be used in two
918 ways, the "simple" way, using only C<on_read> and the "complex" way, using
919 a queue.
920
921 In the simple case, you just install an C<on_read> callback and whenever
922 new data arrives, it will be called. You can then remove some data (if
923 enough is there) from the read buffer (C<< $handle->rbuf >>). Or you cna
924 leave the data there if you want to accumulate more (e.g. when only a
925 partial message has been received so far).
926
927 In the more complex case, you want to queue multiple callbacks. In this
928 case, AnyEvent::Handle will call the first queued callback each time new
929 data arrives (also the first time it is queued) and removes it when it has
930 done its job (see C<push_read>, below).
931
932 This way you can, for example, push three line-reads, followed by reading
933 a chunk of data, and AnyEvent::Handle will execute them in order.
934
935 Example 1: EPP protocol parser. EPP sends 4 byte length info, followed by
936 the specified number of bytes which give an XML datagram.
937
938 # in the default state, expect some header bytes
939 $handle->on_read (sub {
940 # some data is here, now queue the length-header-read (4 octets)
941 shift->unshift_read (chunk => 4, sub {
942 # header arrived, decode
943 my $len = unpack "N", $_[1];
944
945 # now read the payload
946 shift->unshift_read (chunk => $len, sub {
947 my $xml = $_[1];
948 # handle xml
949 });
950 });
951 });
952
953 Example 2: Implement a client for a protocol that replies either with "OK"
954 and another line or "ERROR" for the first request that is sent, and 64
955 bytes for the second request. Due to the availability of a queue, we can
956 just pipeline sending both requests and manipulate the queue as necessary
957 in the callbacks.
958
959 When the first callback is called and sees an "OK" response, it will
960 C<unshift> another line-read. This line-read will be queued I<before> the
961 64-byte chunk callback.
962
963 # request one, returns either "OK + extra line" or "ERROR"
964 $handle->push_write ("request 1\015\012");
965
966 # we expect "ERROR" or "OK" as response, so push a line read
967 $handle->push_read (line => sub {
968 # if we got an "OK", we have to _prepend_ another line,
969 # so it will be read before the second request reads its 64 bytes
970 # which are already in the queue when this callback is called
971 # we don't do this in case we got an error
972 if ($_[1] eq "OK") {
973 $_[0]->unshift_read (line => sub {
974 my $response = $_[1];
975 ...
976 });
977 }
978 });
979
980 # request two, simply returns 64 octets
981 $handle->push_write ("request 2\015\012");
982
983 # simply read 64 bytes, always

1087 lead to hard-to-track-down bugs.
1088
1089 NOTE: The read buffer should only be used or modified if the C<on_read>,

1111 value, in which case it will be called repeatedly until enough data is
1112 available (or an error condition is detected).
1113
1114 If enough data was available, then the callback must remove all data it is

1199 the end of line marker as the third argument (C<$eol>).
1200
1201 The end of line marker, C<$eol>, can be either a string, in which case it
1202 will be interpreted as a fixed record end marker, or it can be a regex
1203 object (e.g. created by C<qr>), in which case it is interpreted as a
1204 regular expression.
1205
1206 The end of line marker argument C<$eol> is optional, if it is missing (NOT
1207 undef), then C<qr|\015?\012|> is used (which is good for most internet
1208 protocols).
1209
1210 Partial lines at the end of the stream will never be returned, as they are
1211 not marked by the end of line marker.

1240
1241 Makes a regex match against the regex object C<$accept> and returns
1242 everything up to and including the match.
1243
1244 Example: read a single line terminated by '\n'.
1245
1246 $handle->push_read (regex => qr<\n>, sub { ... });
1247
1248 If C<$reject> is given and not undef, then it determines when the data is
1249 to be rejected: it is matched against the data when the C<$accept> regex
1250 does not match and generates an C<EBADMSG> error when it matches. This is
1251 useful to quickly reject wrong data (to avoid waiting for a timeout or a
1252 receive buffer overflow).
1253
1254 Example: expect a single decimal number followed by whitespace, reject
1255 anything else (not the use of an anchor).
1256
1257 $handle->push_read (regex => qr<^[0-9]+\s>, qr<[^0-9]>, sub { ... });
1258
1259 If C<$skip> is given and not C<undef>, then it will be matched against
1260 the receive buffer when neither C<$accept> nor C<$reject> match,
1261 and everything preceding and including the match will be accepted
1262 unconditionally. This is useful to skip large amounts of data that you
1263 know cannot be matched, so that the C<$accept> or C<$reject> regex do not
1264 have to start matching from the beginning. This is purely an optimisation
1265 and is usually worth only when you expect more than a few kilobytes.
1266
1267 Example: expect a http header, which ends at C<\015\012\015\012>. Since we
1268 expect the header to be very large (it isn't in practise, but...), we use
1269 a skip regex to skip initial portions. The skip regex is tricky in that
1270 it only accepts something not ending in either \015 or \012, as these are
1271 required for the accept regex.

1350 optional C<!>, C<< < >> or C<< > >> modifier).
1351
1352 For example, DNS over TCP uses a prefix of C<n> (2 octet network order),
1353 EPP uses a prefix of C<N> (4 octtes).

1392
1393 Reads a JSON object or array, decodes it and passes it to the
1394 callback. When a parse error occurs, an C<EBADMSG> error will be raised.
1395
1396 If a C<json> object was passed to the constructor, then that will be used
1397 for the final decode, otherwise it will create a JSON coder expecting UTF-8.
1398
1399 This read type uses the incremental parser available with JSON version
1400 2.09 (and JSON::XS version 2.2) and above. You have to provide a
1401 dependency on your own: this module will load the JSON module, but
1402 AnyEvent does not depend on it itself.
1403
1404 Since JSON texts are fully self-delimiting, the C<json> read and write
1405 types are an ideal simple RPC protocol: just exchange JSON datagrams. See
1406 the C<json> write type description, above, for an actual example.

1495
1496 This function (not method) lets you add your own types to C<push_read>.
1497
1498 Whenever the given C<type> is used, C<push_read> will invoke the code
1499 reference with the handle object, the callback and the remaining
1500 arguments.
1501
1502 The code reference is supposed to return a callback (usually a closure)
1503 that works as a plain read callback (see C<< ->push_read ($cb) >>).
1504
1505 It should invoke the passed callback when it is done reading (remember to
1506 pass C<$handle> as first argument as all other callbacks do that).
1507
1508 Note that this is a function, and all types registered this way will be
1509 global, so try to use unique names.
1510
1511 For examples, see the source of this module (F<perldoc -m AnyEvent::Handle>,
1512 search for C<register_read_type>)).
1513
1514 =item $handle->stop_read
1515
1516 =item $handle->start_read
1517
1518 In rare cases you actually do not want to read anything from the
1519 socket. In this case you can call C<stop_read>. Neither C<on_read> nor
1520 any queued callbacks will be executed then. To start reading again, call
1521 C<start_read>.
1522
1523 Note that AnyEvent::Handle will automatically C<start_read> for you when
1524 you change the C<on_read> callback or push/unshift a read callback, and it
1525 will automatically C<stop_read> for you when neither C<on_read> is set nor
1526 there are any read requests in the queue.
1527
1528 These methods will have no effect when in TLS mode (as TLS doesn't support
1529 half-duplex connections).

1653
1654 Instead of starting TLS negotiation immediately when the AnyEvent::Handle
1655 object is created, you can also do that at a later time by calling
1656 C<starttls>.
1657
1658 Starting TLS is currently an asynchronous operation - when you push some
1659 write data and then call C<< ->starttls >> then TLS negotiation will start
1660 immediately, after which the queued write data is then sent.
1661
1662 The first argument is the same as the C<tls> constructor argument (either
1663 C<"connect">, C<"accept"> or an existing Net::SSLeay object).
1664
1665 The second argument is the optional C<AnyEvent::TLS> object that is used
1666 when AnyEvent::Handle has to create its own TLS connection object, or
1667 a hash reference with C<< key => value >> pairs that will be used to
1668 construct a new context.
1669
1670 The TLS connection object will end up in C<< $handle->{tls} >>, the TLS
1671 context in C<< $handle->{tls_ctx} >> after this call and can be used or
1672 changed to your liking. Note that the handshake might have already started
1673 when this function returns.
1674
1675 Due to bugs in OpenSSL, it might or might not be possible to do multiple
1676 handshakes on the same stream. Best do not attempt to use the stream after
1677 stopping TLS.

1811 =item $handle->destroy
1812
1813 Shuts down the handle object as much as possible - this call ensures that
1814 no further callbacks will be invoked and as many resources as possible
1815 will be freed. Any method you will call on the handle object after
1816 destroying it in this way will be silently ignored (and it will return the
1817 empty list).
1818
1819 Normally, you can just "forget" any references to an AnyEvent::Handle
1820 object and it will simply shut down. This works in fatal error and EOF
1821 callbacks, as well as code outside. It does I<NOT> work in a read or write
1822 callback, so when you want to destroy the AnyEvent::Handle object from
1823 within such an callback. You I<MUST> call C<< ->destroy >> explicitly in
1824 that case.
1825
1826 Destroying the handle object in this way has the advantage that callbacks
1827 will be removed as well, so if those are the only reference holders (as
1828 is common), then one doesn't need to do anything special to break any
1829 reference cycles.
1830
1831 The handle might still linger in the background and write out remaining
1832 data, as specified by the C<linger> option, however.

1873
1874 =item I C<undef> the AnyEvent::Handle reference inside my callback and
1875 still get further invocations!
1876
1877 That's because AnyEvent::Handle keeps a reference to itself when handling
1878 read or write callbacks.
1879
1880 It is only safe to "forget" the reference inside EOF or error callbacks,
1881 from within all other callbacks, you need to explicitly call the C<<
1882 ->destroy >> method.
1883
1884 =item I get different callback invocations in TLS mode/Why can't I pause
1885 reading?
1886
1887 Unlike, say, TCP, TLS connections do not consist of two independent
1888 communication channels, one for each direction. Or put differently. The
1889 read and write directions are not independent of each other: you cannot
1890 write data unless you are also prepared to read, and vice versa.
1891
1892 This can mean than, in TLS mode, you might get C<on_error> or C<on_eof>
1893 callback invocations when you are not expecting any read data - the reason
1894 is that AnyEvent::Handle always reads in TLS mode.
1895
1896 During the connection, you have to make sure that you always have a
1897 non-empty read-queue, or an C<on_read> watcher. At the end of the
1898 connection (or when you no longer want to use it) you can call the
1899 C<destroy> method.
1900
1901 =item How do I read data until the other side closes the connection?
1902
1903 If you just want to read your data into a perl scalar, the easiest way
1904 to achieve this is by setting an C<on_read> callback that does nothing,
1905 clearing the C<on_eof> callback and in the C<on_error> callback, the data
1906 will be in C<$_[0]{rbuf}>:
1907
1908 $handle->on_read (sub { });
1909 $handle->on_eof (undef);
1910 $handle->on_error (sub {
1911 my $data = delete $_[0]{rbuf};
1912 });
1913
1914 The reason to use C<on_error> is that TCP connections, due to latencies
1915 and packets loss, might get closed quite violently with an error, when in
1916 fact, all data has been received.
1917
1918 It is usually better to use acknowledgements when transferring data,
1919 to make sure the other side hasn't just died and you got the data
1920 intact. This is also one reason why so many internet protocols have an
1921 explicit QUIT command.
1922
1923 =item I don't want to destroy the handle too early - how do I wait until
1924 all data has been written?
1925
1926 After writing your last bits of data, set the C<on_drain> callback
1927 and destroy the handle in there - with the default setting of
1928 C<low_water_mark> this will be called precisely when all data has been
1929 written to the socket:
1930
1931 $handle->push_write (...);
1932 $handle->on_drain (sub {
1933 warn "all data submitted to the kernel\n";
1934 undef $handle;
1935 });
1936
1937 If you just want to queue some data and then signal EOF to the other side,
1938 consider using C<< ->push_shutdown >> instead.
1939
1940 =item I want to contact a TLS/SSL server, I don't care about security.
1941
1942 If your TLS server is a pure TLS server (e.g. HTTPS) that only speaks TLS,
1943 simply connect to it and then create the AnyEvent::Handle with the C<tls>
1944 parameter:
1945
1946 tcp_connect $host, $port, sub {
1947 my ($fh) = @_;
1948
1949 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
1950 fh => $fh,
1951 tls => "connect",
1952 on_error => sub { ... };
1953
1954 $handle->push_write (...);
1955 };
1956
1957 =item I want to contact a TLS/SSL server, I do care about security.
1958
1959 Then you should additionally enable certificate verification, including
1960 peername verification, if the protocol you use supports it (see
1961 L<AnyEvent::TLS>, C<verify_peername>).
1962
1963 E.g. for HTTPS:
1964
1965 tcp_connect $host, $port, sub {
1966 my ($fh) = @_;
1967
1968 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
1969 fh => $fh,
1970 peername => $host,
1971 tls => "connect",
1972 tls_ctx => { verify => 1, verify_peername => "https" },
1973 ...
1974
1975 Note that you must specify the hostname you connected to (or whatever
1976 "peername" the protocol needs) as the C<peername> argument, otherwise no
1977 peername verification will be done.
1978
1979 The above will use the system-dependent default set of trusted CA
1980 certificates. If you want to check against a specific CA, add the
1981 C<ca_file> (or C<ca_cert>) arguments to C<tls_ctx>:
1982
1983 tls_ctx => {
1984 verify => 1,
1985 verify_peername => "https",
1986 ca_file => "my-ca-cert.pem",
1987 },
1988
1989 =item I want to create a TLS/SSL server, how do I do that?
1990
1991 Well, you first need to get a server certificate and key. You have
1992 three options: a) ask a CA (buy one, use cacert.org etc.) b) create a
1993 self-signed certificate (cheap. check the search engine of your choice,
1994 there are many tutorials on the net) or c) make your own CA (tinyca2 is a
1995 nice program for that purpose).
1996
1997 Then create a file with your private key (in PEM format, see
1998 L<AnyEvent::TLS>), followed by the certificate (also in PEM format). The
1999 file should then look like this:
2000
2001 -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
2002 ...header data
2003 ... lots of base64'y-stuff
2004 -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
2005
2006 -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
2007 ... lots of base64'y-stuff
2008 -----END CERTIFICATE-----
2009
2010 The important bits are the "PRIVATE KEY" and "CERTIFICATE" parts. Then
2011 specify this file as C<cert_file>:
2012
2013 tcp_server undef, $port, sub {
2014 my ($fh) = @_;
2015
2016 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2017 fh => $fh,
2018 tls => "accept",
2019 tls_ctx => { cert_file => "my-server-keycert.pem" },
2020 ...
2021
2022 When you have intermediate CA certificates that your clients might not
2023 know about, just append them to the C<cert_file>.

2028 =head1 SUBCLASSING AnyEvent::Handle
2029
2030 In many cases, you might want to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
2031
2032 To make this easier, a given version of AnyEvent::Handle uses these
2033 conventions:
2034
2035 =over 4
2036
2037 =item * all constructor arguments become object members.
2038
2039 At least initially, when you pass a C<tls>-argument to the constructor it
2040 will end up in C<< $handle->{tls} >>. Those members might be changed or
2041 mutated later on (for example C<tls> will hold the TLS connection object).
2042
2043 =item * other object member names are prefixed with an C<_>.
2044
2045 All object members not explicitly documented (internal use) are prefixed
2046 with an underscore character, so the remaining non-C<_>-namespace is free
2047 for use for subclasses.
2048
2049 =item * all members not documented here and not prefixed with an underscore
2050 are free to use in subclasses.
2051
2052 Of course, new versions of AnyEvent::Handle may introduce more "public"
2053 member variables, but thats just life, at least it is documented.
