It serialises all system -signals, events etc. into a single event queue, that is easily -processed without needing to worry about concurrency. A properly -written, event-driven program using this kind of programming doesn't -need threads, nor has to worry about concurrency. It turns a program -into a state machine, and makes it very robust and easy to follow. - -Ecore gives you other handy primitives, such as timers to tick over -for you and call specified functions at particular times so the -programmer can use this to do things, like animate, or time out on -connections or tasks that take too long etc. - -Idle handlers are provided too, as well as calls on entering an idle -state (often a very good time to update the state of the program). All -events that enter the system are passed to specific callback functions -that the program sets up to handle those events. Handling them is -simple and other Ecore modules produce more events on the queue, -coming from other sources such as file descriptors etc. - -Ecore also lets you have functions called when file descriptors become -active for reading or writing, allowing for streamlined, non-blocking -IO. - -Ecore may provide (if enabled) the following libraries: - - * ecore: main loop, signals, and base; - - * ecore_con: http/ftp (curl) access; - - * ecore_file: easy file manipulation (copy, move, symlink, remove), - monitoring and directory (mkdir, mkdir -p, rm -fr); - - * ecore_txt: text charset conversion (iconv wrapper); - - * ecore_evas: integrates <pkg>media-libs/evas</pkg> into different - input and output systems, providing easy to use canvas; - - * ecore_x, ecore_sdl, ecore_quartz, ecore_directfb, ecore_win32, - ecore_wince, ecore_fb: access to different input/output systems, - mapping them to ecore main loop and events; - - * ecore_imf, ecore_imf_evas: input-method framework used to integrate - with different input methods such as virtual keyboards; - - * ecore_input, ecore_input_evas: abstraction of input events. - -</longdescription> -</pkgmetadata> |
