picos 0.1.0 · OCaml Package

A transparently asynchronous replacement for a subset of the Unix module that comes with OCaml.

In this module operations on file descriptors, such as read and write and others, implicitly block, in a scheduler friendly manner, to await for the file descriptor to become available for the operation. This works best with file descriptors set to non-blocking mode.

⚠️ Beware that this does not currently try to work around any limitations of the Unix module that comes with OCaml. In particular, on Windows, only sockets can be put into non-blocking mode. Also, on Windows, scheduler friendly blocking only works properly with non-blocking file descriptors, i.e. sockets.

Please consult the documentation of the Unix module that comes with OCaml.

type file_descr = Picos_fd.t

Opaque type alias for Unix.file_descr.

⚠️ Please consider the reference counting of file descriptors as an internal implementation detail and avoid depending on it.

val close : file_descr -> unit

close file_descr marks the file descriptor as to be closed.

ℹ️ The file descriptor will either be closed immediately or after all concurrently running transparently asynchronous operations with the file descriptor have finished.

⚠️ After calling close no new operations should be started with the file descriptor.
