SYNOPSIS |
| 5 |
use Glib::Event; |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
# example with Gtk2: |
| 8 |
use Gtk2; |
| 9 |
use Glib::Event; |
| 10 |
use Event; # any order |
| 11 |
Event->timer (after => 1, interval => 1, cb => sub { print "I am here!\n" }); |
| 12 |
main Gtk2; |
| 13 |
# etc., it just works |

DESCRIPTION |
| 16 |
This module coerces the Glib event loop to use the Event module as |
| 17 |
underlying event loop, i.e. Event will be used by Glib for all events. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
This makes Glib compatible to Event. Calls into the Glib main loop are |
| 20 |
more or less equivalent to calls to "Event::loop". |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
* The Glib perl module is not used. |
| 23 |
This module has no dependency on the existing Glib perl interface, |
| 24 |
as it uses glib directly. The Glib module can, however, be used |
| 25 |
without any problems. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
* The default context will be changed when the module is loaded. |
| 28 |
Loading this module will automatically "patch" the default context |
| 29 |
of libglib, so normally nothing more is required. |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
BUGS |
| 32 |
* No documented API to patch other main contexts. |
| 33 |
* Uses one_event, which is inefficient. |
