Sönke Ludwig 6e5fb79c62 Work around platform differences in the directory watcher test.
- Drops all events that happen before any changes are made (FSEventStream reports events from the past to a certain degree)
- Tests the same file twice in a row, since FSEventStream might coalesce events and report bogus changes
- Allows "modified" instead of "added" events, because FSEventStream does not allow to distinguish in some cases

EventCore

This is a high-performance native event loop abstraction for D, focused on asynchronous I/O and GUI message integration. The API is callback (delegate) based. For a higher level fiber based abstraction, take a look at vibe.d.

The API documentation is part of vibe.d:

Open questions

  • Error code reporting
  • Enqueued writes
  • Use the type system to prohibit passing thread-local handles to foreign threads
