| pth_accept, pth_connect, pth_read, pth_write, pth_sleep and pth_nanosleep behave just like the corresponding system calls. However these calls handle non-blocking sockets and cause the thread to sleep on the reactor if it would block. For general I/O you will probably wish to wrap up your sockets in I/O handle objects, which give you a higher-level buffered interface to sockets (see io_fdopen(3)). |
| pth_millisleep sleeps for a given number of milliseconds. |
| pth_timeout is similar to the alarm(2) system call: it registers a timeout (in seconds). The thread will exit automatically (even in the middle of a system call) if the timeout is reached. To reset the timeout, call pth_timeout with a timeout of 0. |
