Does a new watcher see old unhandled events?
Question
If I have a socket and someone sent data to it that I didn't yet handle via read()
, and now I make an ev_io
watcher for it and run it, will the callback fire?
Solution 2
It's level-triggered, not edge-triggered, so the callback will fire rapidly until all the pending data was read.
OTHER TIPS
I don't know the answer to your question as I've never used libev
. But I can suggest in the absence of this knowledge you might try to simulate the scenario and see what happens. :-)
