NAME IO::AIO::LoadLimited - A tiny IO::AIO extension that allows to load multiple files VERSION Version 0.01 SYNOPSIS use strict; use warnings; use IO::AIO; use IO::AIO::LoadLimited; my @pathnames = ( '/path/to/file', ...); my $group = aio_group sub { ... }; my $limit = 10; aio_load_limited @pathnames, sub { my ($pathname, $content) = @_; warn "could not read $pathname: $!" unless defined $content; # whatever is neccessary... ... }, $group, $limit; or aio_load_limited @pathnames, sub { my ($pathname, $content) = @_; warn "could not read $pathname: $!" unless defined $content; # whatever is neccessary... ... }, sub { # done cb }; IO::AIO::flush; # or use AnyEvent::AIO EXPORT IO::AIO::LoadLimited exports aio_load_limited. SUBROUTINES aio_load_limited @files, $cb, $group_or_donecb, $limit = 10; The function aio_load_limited loads a list of files asynchronously where the number of open filehandles used are limited so you don't hit the hard limit of your operating system. The limit is archived using the group and limit functionality of "IO::AIO". The callback $cb gets invoked once for each file with the pathname as the first parameter and the content of the file as the second. If the file can not be opened or read the content is "undef". The third parameter $group_or_donecb is either another callback that thats called when everthing is done or an IO::AIO::GRP object. The last parameter $limit is optional, its default value is 10.; SEE ALSO IO::AIO AnyEvent::IO and AnyEvent::AIO AUTHOR Martin Barth, "" BUGS Please report any bugs or feature requests to SUPPORT You can find documentation for this module with the perldoc command. perldoc IO::AIO::LoadLimited You can also look for information at: * Github: issue and request tracker (report bugs here) * AnnoCPAN: Annotated CPAN documentation * CPAN Ratings * Search CPAN ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Thanks to M.Lehmann for IO::AIO and thanks to www.netdescribe.com.
