One common way is to write some data to a pipe and use an event\nhandling toolkit to watch for I/O events. Another way is to send a signal.\nThose methods are slow, and in the case of a pipe, also not asynchronous -\nit won't interrupt a running perl interpreter.\n\nThis module implements asynchronous notifications that enable you to signal\nrunning perl code from another thread, asynchronously, and sometimes even\nwithout using a single syscall.\n\nStatus:\n\nVendor Tag:\tTNF\nRelease Tags:\tpkgsrc-base\n" module: pkgsrc subject: 'CVS commit: pkgsrc/devel/p5-Async-Interrupt' unixtime: '1249763756' user: sno
