1 root 1.1 NAME
2     Net::SNMP::EV - adaptor to integrate Net::SNMP into the EV event loop.
3    
4     SYNOPSIS
5     use EV;
6     use Net::SNMP;
7     use Net::SNMP::EV;
8    
9     # just use Net::SNMP and EV as you like:
10    
11     ... start non-blocking snmp request(s)...
12    
13     EV::loop;
14    
15     DESCRIPTION
16     This module coerces the Net::SNMP scheduler to use the EV high
17     performance event loop as underlying event loop, i.e. EV will be used by
18     Net::SNMP for all events.
19    
20     This integrates Net::SNMP into EV: You can make non-blocking Net::SNMP
21     calls and as long as your main program uses the EV event loop, they will
22     run in parallel to anything else that uses EV or AnyEvent.
23    
24     This module does not export anything and does not require you to do
25     anything special apart from loading it.
26    
27     The module is quite short, you cna use it to do a similar integration
28     into e.g. Event or other event loops.
29    
30     BUGS
31     Net::SNMP has no (documented or otherwise) API to do what this module
32     does. As such, this module rummages around in the internals of Net::SNMP
33     in a rather inacceptable way, and as thus might be very sensitive to the
34     version of Net::SNMP used (it has been tested with some 5.x versions
35     only, YMMV).

37     SEE ALSO
38     EV, Net::SNMP, AnyEvent, Glib::EV.
