Function Documentation
qb_loop_t* qb_loop_create (void)
Create a new main loop. Returns:
- loop instance.
void qb_loop_destroy (struct qb_loop *l)
int32_t qb_loop_job_add (qb_loop_t *l, enum qb_loop_priorityp, void *data, qb_loop_job_dispatch_fndispatch_fn)
Add a job to the mainloop. This is run in the next cycle of the loop.
Note:
- it is a one-shot job.
Parameters:
-
l pointer to the loop instance
p the priority
data user data passed into the dispatch function
dispatch_fn callback function
Returns:
- status (0 == ok, -errno == failure)
int32_t qb_loop_job_del (struct qb_loop *l, enum qb_loop_priorityp, void *data, qb_loop_job_dispatch_fndispatch_fn)
Delete a job from the mainloop. This will try to delete the job if it hasn't run yet.
Note:
- this will remove the first job that matches the paramaters (priority, data, dispatch_fn).
Parameters:
-
l pointer to the loop instance
p the priority
data user data passed into the dispatch function
dispatch_fn callback function
Returns:
- status (0 == ok, -errno == failure)

Add a poll job to the mainloop. Note:
- it is a re-occuring job.
Parameters:
-
l pointer to the loop instance
p the priority
fd file descriptor.
events (POLLIN|POLLOUT) etc ....
data user data passed into the dispatch function
dispatch_fn callback function
Returns:
- status (0 == ok, -errno == failure)
int32_t qb_loop_poll_del (qb_loop_t *l, int32_tfd)
Delete a poll job. Parameters:
-
l pointer to the loop instance
fd file descriptor.

fn callback function.
Returns:
- status (0 == ok, -errno == failure)
int32_t qb_loop_poll_mod (qb_loop_t *l, enum qb_loop_priorityp, int32_tfd, int32_tevents, void *data, qb_loop_poll_dispatch_fndispatch_fn)
Modify a poll job. Parameters:
-
l pointer to the loop instance
p the priority
fd file descriptor.
events (POLLIN|POLLOUT) etc ....
data user data passed into the dispatch function
