It serialises all system +signals, events etc. into a single event queue, that is easily +processed without needing to worry about concurrency. A properly +written, event-driven program using this kind of programming doesn't +need threads, nor has to worry about concurrency. It turns a program +into a state machine, and makes it very robust and easy to follow. + +Ecore gives you other handy primitives, such as timers to tick over +for you and call specified functions at particular times so the +programmer can use this to do things, like animate, or time out on +connections or tasks that take too long etc. + +Idle handlers are provided too, as well as calls on entering an idle +state (often a very good time to update the state of the program). All +events that enter the system are passed to specific callback functions +that the program sets up to handle those events. Handling them is +simple and other Ecore modules produce more events on the queue, +coming from other sources such as file descriptors etc. + +Ecore also help you work in a multi threaded environment and setup a +thread pool that help you use the EFL on multi-cpu system. It help split +the part that can't be called outside of the ecore main loop from the +computation heavy function that could run on another CPU. Be aware that +Evas and most of Ecore API is not thread safe and should only be called +in the main loop. Eina and Eet could be used, if done carefully, in any +heavy function on another cpu. + +Ecore also lets you have functions called when file descriptors become +active for reading or writing, allowing for streamlined, non-blocking +IO. + +------------------------------------------------------------------------------ +COMPILING AND INSTALLING: + + ./configure + make +(as root unless you are installing in your users directories): + make install + +------------------------------------------------------------------------------ +NOTE: + +You can experience main loop lock (and more likely see UI lock) if libcurl +doesn't use an asynchronous dns resolver. Since Curl 7.21.0, you can use the +native dns resolver asynchronously by turning --enable-threaded-resolver +on during configure time. For older version, C-Ares is the way to solve that +issue (see: http://c-ares.haxx.se/ ). + +Also the wayland support (ecore_wayland) is considered experimental as +wayland itself is still unstable and liable to change core protocol. +If you use this api, it is possible it will break in future, until this +notice is removed. -- 2.7.4
