Class UnixMainLoop

Unix main loop, suitable for using on Posix systems

Inheritance

System.Object

UnixMainLoop

Namespace: Mono.Terminal

Assembly: Terminal.Gui.dll

Syntax

public class UnixMainLoop : Mono.Terminal.IMainLoopDriver

Remarks

In addition to the general functions of the mainloop, the Unix version can watch file descriptors using the AddWatch methods.

Constructors

UnixMainLoop()

Declaration

public UnixMainLoop ();

Methods

AddWatch(Int32, UnixMainLoop+Condition, Func<MainLoop,Boolean>)

Watches a file descriptor for activity.

Declaration

public object AddWatch (int fileDescriptor, Mono.Terminal.UnixMainLoop.Condition condition, Func<Mono.Terminal.MainLoop,bool> callback);

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Int32	fileDescriptor	To be added.
	condition	To be added.
System.Func<MainLoop,System.Boolean>	callback	To be added.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Object	To be added.

Remarks

When the condition is met, the provided callback is invoked. If the callback returns false, the watch is automatically removed.

          The return value is a token that represents this watch, you can
          use this token to remove the watch by calling RemoveWatch.

RemoveWatch(Object)

Removes an active watch from the mainloop.

Declaration

public void RemoveWatch (object token);

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Object	token	To be added.

Remarks

The token parameter is the value returned from AddWatch
