It accomplishes this by making good use of +sysread and POE::Wheel::ReadWrite. This Role errs on the side of +doing as many blocking reads of the "input_handle" as possible up +front (until the high water mark is hit on the Wheel). If this +default isn't suitable for the consumer, simply override +"get_data_from_input_handle". After Streamer has exhausted the +source, and flushed the last of the output, it will clean up after +itself by closing the wheel, the handles, and sending all of them out +of scope. If an exception happens, it will clean up after itself, and +let the DIE signal propagate. + +WWW: http://search.cpan.org/dist/POEx-Role-Streaming/ |
