1532
1533=over 4
1534
1535=item How do I read data until the other side closes the connection?
1536
1537If you just want to read your data into a perl scalar, the easiest way
1538to achieve this is by setting an C<on_read> callback that does nothing,
1539clearing the C<on_eof> callback and in the C<on_error> callback, the data
1540will be in C<$_[0]{rbuf}>:
1541
1542 $handle->on_read (sub { });
1543 $handle->on_eof (undef);
1544 $handle->on_error (sub {
1545 my $data = delete $_[0]{rbuf};
1546 undef $handle;
1547 });
1548
1549The reason to use C<on_error> is that TCP connections, due to latencies
1550and packets loss, might get closed quite violently with an error, when in
1551fact, all data has been received.
1552
1553It is usually better to use acknowledgements when transfering data,
1554to make sure the other side hasn't just died and you got the data
1555intact. This is also one reason why so many internet protocols have an
1556explicit QUIT command.
1557
1558
1559=item I don't want to destroy the handle too early - how do I wait until
1560all data has been written?
1561
1562After writing your last bits of data, set the C<on_drain> callback
1563and destroy the handle in there - with the default setting of
1564C<low_water_mark> this will be called precisely when all data has been
1565written to the socket:
1566
1567 $handle->push_write (...);
1568 $handle->on_drain (sub {
1569 warn "all data submitted to the kernel\n";
1570 undef $handle;
1571 });
1572
1573=item I get different callback invocations in TLS mode/Why can't I pause
1574reading?
1575
1576Unlike, say, TCP, TLS conenctions do not consist of two independent
1577communication channels, one for each direction. Or put differently. the
1578read and write directions are not independent of each other: you cannot
1579write data unless you are also prepared to read, and vice versa.
1580
1581This can mean than, in TLS mode, you might get C<on_error> or C<on_eof>
1582callback invocations when you are not expecting any read data - the reason
1583is that AnyEvent::Handle always reads in TLS mode.
1584
1585During the connection, you have to make sure that you always have a
1586non-empty read-queue, or an C<on_read> watcher. At the end of the
1587connection (or when you no longer want to use it) you can call the
1588C<destroy> method.
