new Perl module: IO::AIO

[brad]

One of my favorite CPAN contributors, Marc Lehmann, author of the wonderful Linux::AIO and Coro modules, just released a new module:

It's like Linux::AIO, but portable.

Have you ever met Marc?

Using IO::AIO for FreeBSD and perlbal

I'm planning on looking at getting IO::AIO going with perlbal on FreeBSD. Also downloaded that FD::Parser that you were talking about ages ago.

I almost got it working last night. Perlbal already has an AIO abstraction layer, and IO::AIO is almost perfectly compatible with Linux::AIO, except for aio_open gets a $fh in IO:: instead of a $fd as in Linux::.

I plan to finish it up today.

How did the coding go?
