Daemon::Generic::WhileUser Contributed Perl DocumentDaemon::Generic::While1(3)NAMEDaemon::Generic::While1 - Daemon framework with default while(1) loop
SYNOPSIS
@ISA = qw(Daemon::Generic::While1);
sub gd_run_body {
# stuff
}
DESCRIPTION
This is a slight variation on Daemon::Generic: a default "gd_run()"
provided. It has a while(1) loop that calls "gd_run_body()" over and
over. It checks for reconifg and and terminate events and only actions
them between calls to "gd_run_body()".
Terminate events will be forced through after
$Daemon::Generic::force_quit_delay seconds if "gd_run_body()" doesn't
return quickly enough.
SUBCLASS METHODS REQUIRD
The following method is required to be overridden to subclass
Daemon::Generic::While1:
gd_run_body() This method will be called over and over. This method
should include a call to sleep(1) (or a bit more).
Reconfig events will not interrupt it. Quit events will
only interrupt it after 15 seconds.
ADDITIONAL METHODS
The following additional methods are available for your use (as
compared to Daemon::Generic):
gd_sleep($period)
This will sleep for $period seconds but in one-second
intervals so that if a SIGINT or SIGHUP arrives the
sleep period can end more quickly.
Using this makes it safe for "gd_run_body()" to sleep
for longer than $Daemon::Generic::force_quit_delay
seconds at a time.
ADDITIONAL MEMBER DATA
The following additional bits of member data are defined:
gd_sigint The time at which an (unprocessed) SIGINT was recevied.
gd_sighup The time at which an (unprocessed) SIGHUP was recevied.
