		2112
		2113	Normally, you can just "forget" any references to an AnyEvent::Handle

		2115	callbacks, as well as code outside. It does I<NOT> work in a read or write

		2118	that case.
		2119
		2120	Destroying the handle object in this way has the advantage that callbacks
		2121	will be removed as well, so if those are the only reference holders (as
		2122	is common), then one doesn't need to do anything special to break any
		2123	reference cycles.

		2148	callback possibly destroyed the handle. For example, C<< ->push_write >>,
		2149	C<< ->starttls >> and other methods can call user callbacks, which in turn
		2150	can destroy the handle, so work can be avoided by checking sometimes:
		2151
		2152	$hdl->starttls ("accept");
		2153	return if $hdl->destroyed;
		2154	$hdl->push_write (...
		2155
		2156	Note that the call to C<push_write> will silently be ignored if the handle
		2157	has been destroyed, so often you can just ignore the possibility of the
		2158	handle being destroyed.

		2190
		2191	=item I C<undef> the AnyEvent::Handle reference inside my callback and
		2192	still get further invocations!
		2193
		2194	That's because AnyEvent::Handle keeps a reference to itself when handling
		2195	read or write callbacks.
		2196
		2197	It is only safe to "forget" the reference inside EOF or error callbacks,
		2198	from within all other callbacks, you need to explicitly call the C<<
		2199	->destroy >> method.
		2200
		2201	=item Why is my C<on_eof> callback never called?
		2202
		2203	Probably because your C<on_error> callback is being called instead: When
		2204	you have outstanding requests in your read queue, then an EOF is
		2205	considered an error as you clearly expected some data.
		2206
		2207	To avoid this, make sure you have an empty read queue whenever your handle
		2208	is supposed to be "idle" (i.e. connection closes are O.K.). You cna set
		2209	an C<on_read> handler that simply pushes the first read requests in the
		2210	queue.
		2211
		2212	See also the next question, which explains this in a bit more detail.
		2213
		2214	=item How can I serve requests in a loop?
		2215
		2216	Most protocols consist of some setup phase (authentication for example)
		2217	followed by a request handling phase, where the server waits for requests
		2218	and handles them, in a loop.
		2219
		2220	There are two important variants: The first (traditional, better) variant
		2221	handles requests until the server gets some QUIT command, causing it to
		2222	close the connection first (highly desirable for a busy TCP server). A
		2223	client dropping the connection is an error, which means this variant can
		2224	detect an unexpected detection close.
		2225
		2226	To handle this case, always make sure you have a on-empty read queue, by
		2227	pushing the "read request start" handler on it:
		2228
		2229	# we assume a request starts with a single line
		2230	my @start_request; @start_request = (line => sub {
		2231	my ($hdl, $line) = @_;
		2232
		2233	... handle request
		2234
		2235	# push next request read, possibly from a nested callback
		2236	$hdl->push_read (@start_request);
		2237	});
		2238
		2239	# auth done, now go into request handling loop
		2240	# now push the first @start_request
		2241	$hdl->push_read (@start_request);
		2242
		2243	By always having an outstanding C<push_read>, the handle always expects
		2244	some data and raises the C<EPIPE> error when the connction is dropped
		2245	unexpectedly.
		2246
		2247	The second variant is a protocol where the client can drop the connection
		2248	at any time. For TCP, this means that the server machine may run out of
		2249	sockets easier, and in general, it means you cnanot distinguish a protocl
		2250	failure/client crash from a normal connection close. Nevertheless, these
		2251	kinds of protocols are common (and sometimes even the best solution to the
		2252	problem).
		2253
		2254	Having an outstanding read request at all times is possible if you ignore
		2255	C<EPIPE> errors, but this doesn't help with when the client drops the
		2256	connection during a request, which would still be an error.
		2257
		2258	A better solution is to push the initial request read in an C<on_read>
		2259	callback. This avoids an error, as when the server doesn't expect data
		2260	(i.e. is idly waiting for the next request, an EOF will not raise an
		2261	error, but simply result in an C<on_eof> callback. It is also a bit slower
		2262	and simpler:
		2263
		2264	# auth done, now go into request handling loop
		2265	$hdl->on_read (sub {
		2266	my ($hdl) = @_;
		2267
		2268	# called each time we receive data but the read queue is empty
		2269	# simply start read the request
		2270
		2271	$hdl->push_read (line => sub {
		2272	my ($hdl, $line) = @_;
		2273
		2274	... handle request
		2275
		2276	# do nothing special when the request has been handled, just
		2277	# let the request queue go empty.
1429	});	2278	});
1430	push @linger, AnyEvent->timer (after => $linger, cb => sub {
1431	@linger = ();
1432	});	2279	});
		2280
		2281	=item I get different callback invocations in TLS mode/Why can't I pause
		2282	reading?
		2283
		2284	Unlike, say, TCP, TLS connections do not consist of two independent
		2285	communication channels, one for each direction. Or put differently, the
		2286	read and write directions are not independent of each other: you cannot
		2287	write data unless you are also prepared to read, and vice versa.
		2288
		2289	This means that, in TLS mode, you might get C<on_error> or C<on_eof>
		2290	callback invocations when you are not expecting any read data - the reason
		2291	is that AnyEvent::Handle always reads in TLS mode.
		2292
		2293	During the connection, you have to make sure that you always have a
		2294	non-empty read-queue, or an C<on_read> watcher. At the end of the
		2295	connection (or when you no longer want to use it) you can call the
		2296	C<destroy> method.
		2297
		2298	=item How do I read data until the other side closes the connection?
		2299
		2300	If you just want to read your data into a perl scalar, the easiest way
		2301	to achieve this is by setting an C<on_read> callback that does nothing,
		2302	clearing the C<on_eof> callback and in the C<on_error> callback, the data
		2303	will be in C<$_[0]{rbuf}>:
		2304
		2305	$handle->on_read (sub { });
		2306	$handle->on_eof (undef);
		2307	$handle->on_error (sub {
		2308	my $data = delete $_[0]{rbuf};
		2309	});
		2310
		2311	Note that this example removes the C<rbuf> member from the handle object,
		2312	which is not normally allowed by the API. It is expressly permitted in
		2313	this case only, as the handle object needs to be destroyed afterwards.
		2314
		2315	The reason to use C<on_error> is that TCP connections, due to latencies
		2316	and packets loss, might get closed quite violently with an error, when in
		2317	fact all data has been received.
		2318
		2319	It is usually better to use acknowledgements when transferring data,
		2320	to make sure the other side hasn't just died and you got the data
		2321	intact. This is also one reason why so many internet protocols have an
		2322	explicit QUIT command.
		2323
		2324	=item I don't want to destroy the handle too early - how do I wait until
		2325	all data has been written?
		2326
		2327	After writing your last bits of data, set the C<on_drain> callback
		2328	and destroy the handle in there - with the default setting of
		2329	C<low_water_mark> this will be called precisely when all data has been
		2330	written to the socket:
		2331
		2332	$handle->push_write (...);
		2333	$handle->on_drain (sub {
		2334	warn "all data submitted to the kernel\n";
		2335	undef $handle;
		2336	});
		2337
		2338	If you just want to queue some data and then signal EOF to the other side,
		2339	consider using C<< ->push_shutdown >> instead.
		2340
		2341	=item I want to contact a TLS/SSL server, I don't care about security.
		2342
		2343	If your TLS server is a pure TLS server (e.g. HTTPS) that only speaks TLS,
		2344	connect to it and then create the AnyEvent::Handle with the C<tls>
		2345	parameter:
		2346
		2347	tcp_connect $host, $port, sub {
		2348	my ($fh) = @_;
		2349
		2350	my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
		2351	fh => $fh,
