25This module enables you to create programs using the powerful Event model 30This module enables you to create programs using the powerful Event model

31watcher constructors from Event is that you do not specify a callback 36watcher constructors from Event is that you do not specify a callback

35Coro::Event->main. 40Coro::Event::loop.
41
42Please note that even programs or modules (such as
43L<Coro::Handle|Coro::Handle>) that use "traditional"
44event-based/continuation style will run more efficient with this module
45then when using only Event.
46
47=head1 WARNING
48
49Please note that Event does not support coroutines or threads. That
50means that you B<MUST NOT> block in an event callback. Again: In Event
51callbacks, you I<must never ever> call a Coroutine fucntion that blocks
52the current coroutine.
53
54While this seems to work superficially, it will eventually cause memory
55corruption.
56
57=head1 SEMANTICS
58
59Whenever Event blocks (e.g. in a call to C<one_event>, C<loop> etc.),
60this module cede's to all other coroutines with the same or higher
61priority. When any coroutines of lower priority are ready, it will not
62block but run one of them and then check for events.
63
64The effect is that coroutines with the same or higher priority than
65the blocking coroutine will keep Event from checking for events, while
66coroutines with lower priority are being run, but Event checks for new
67events after every cede.

154Unlike loop's counterpart it is not an error when no watchers are active -
155loop silently returns in this case, as if unloop(undef) were called.
