308=item keepalive => <boolean>
309
310Enables (default disable) the SO_KEEPALIVE option on the stream socket:
311normally, TCP connections have no time-out once established, so TCP
312connections, once established, can stay alive forever even when the other
313side has long gone. TCP keepalives are a cheap way to take down long-lived
314TCP connections when the other side becomes unreachable. While the default
315is OS-dependent, TCP keepalives usually kick in after around two hours,
316and, if the other side doesn't reply, take down the TCP connection some 10
317to 15 minutes later.
318
319It is harmless to specify this option for file handles that do not support
320keepalives, and enabling it on connections that are potentially long-lived
321is usually a good idea.

323=item oobinline => <boolean>
324
325BSD majorly fucked up the implementation of TCP urgent data. The result
326is that almost no OS implements TCP according to the specs, and every OS
327implements it slightly differently.
328
329If you want to handle TCP urgent data, then setting this flag (the default
330is enabled) gives you the most portable way of getting urgent data, by
331putting it into the stream.
332
333Since BSD emulation of OOB data on top of TCP's urgent data can have
334security implications, AnyEvent::Handle sets this flag automatically
335unless explicitly specified. Note that setting this flag after
336establishing a connection I<may> be a bit too late (data loss could
337already have occured on BSD systems), but at least it will protect you
338from most attacks.

1538This function (not method) lets you add your own types to C<push_read>. 1696Instead of one of the predefined types, you can also specify the name
1697of a package. AnyEvent will try to load the package and then expects to
1698find a function named C<anyevent_read_type> inside. If it isn't found, it
1699progressively tries to load the parent package until it either finds the

2060Returns false as long as the handle hasn't been destroyed by a call to C<<
2061->destroy >>, true otherwise.
2062
2063Can be useful to decide whether the handle is still valid after some
2064callback possibly destroyed the handle. For example, C<< ->push_write >>,
2065C<< ->starttls >> and other methods can call user callbacks, which in turn
2066can destroy the handle, so work can be avoided by checking sometimes:
2067
2068 $hdl->starttls ("accept");
2069 return if $hdl->destroyed;
2070 $hdl->push_write (...
2071
2072Note that the call to C<push_write> will silently be ignored if the handle
2073has been destroyed, so often you can just ignore the possibility of the
2074handle being destroyed.
