Types Related to Events

tibrvEvent

Each call to a Rendezvous event creation function results in a new event object, which represents your program’s interest in a class of events. Rendezvous software uses the same event object to signal each occurrence of such an event.

tibrvEventCallback

Programs define functions of this type to process events.

tibrvEventVectorCallback

Programs define functions of this type to process message vector events.

tibrvEventOnComplete

A program can destroy an event object even when its callback function is running in one or more threads. Multi-threaded programs can define functions of this type to discover when all callback functions in progress have completed.

tibrvEventType

Distinguish event objects as listeners, timers, or I/O interest.

tibrvIOType

Distinguish event interest in I/O conditions.
