NAME

Coro::Util - various utility functions.

SYNOPSIS

use Coro::Util;

DESCRIPTION

This module implements various utility functions, mostly replacing perl functions by non-blocking counterparts.

This module is an AnyEvent user. Refer to the AnyEvent documentation to see how to integrate it into your own programs.

gethostbyname, gethostbyaddr

Work exactly like their perl counterparts, but do not block. Currently this is being implemented with forking, so it's not exactly low-cost.

Coro::Util::inet_aton

Works almost exactly like its Socket counterpart, except that it does not block. Is implemented with forking, so not exactly low-cost.
