3 Coro::Timer - simple timer package, independent of used event loops

5 =head1 SYNOPSIS

7 use Coro::Timer qw(sleep timeout);
8 # nothing exported by default
9
10 sleep 10;
11
12 =head1 DESCRIPTION
13
14 This package implements a simple timer callback system which works
15 independent of the event loop mechanism used. If no event mechanism is
16 used, it is emulated. The C<Coro::Event> module overwrites functions with
17 versions better suited.
18
19 This module is not subclassable.

36 @EXPORT_OK = qw(timeout sleep);
37
38 =item $flag = timeout $seconds;
39
40 This function will wake up the current coroutine after $seconds
41 seconds and sets $flag to true (it is false initially). If $flag goes
42 out of scope earlier nothing happens. This is used to implement the
43 C<timed_down>, C<timed_wait> etc. primitives. It is used like this:
44
45 sub timed_wait {
46 my $timeout = Coro::Timer::timeout 60;
47
48 while (condition false) {
49 schedule; # wait until woken up or timeout
50 return 0 if $timeout; # timed out
51 }
52 return 1; # condition satisfied
53 }

59 my $current = $Coro::current;
60 my $timeout;

62 timer => AnyEvent->timer (after => $_[0], cb => sub {
63 $timeout = 1;
64 $current->ready;
65 }),
66 timeout => \$timeout,

74 use overload 'bool' => \&bool, '0+' => \&bool;
75
76 package Coro::Timer;
77
78 =item sleep $seconds
79
80 This function works like the built-in sleep, except maybe more precise
81 and, most important, without blocking other coroutines.
