server.event-handler¶

Sets the event handler.

Default: poll

Available event handlers:¶

OS	Method	Config value
all	select	`select`
Unix	poll	`poll`
Linux 2.4+	rt-signals	`linux-rtsig`
Linux 2.6+	epoll	`linux-sysepoll`
Solaris	/dev/poll	`solaris-devpoll`
FreeBSD, ...	kqueue	`freebsd-kqueue`
NetBSD	kqueue	`kqueue`
N/A	libev	`libev`

Notes

`libev` requires lighty to be compiled `--with-libev` (available since 1.4.27)

Example¶

server.event-handler = "kqueue"

Caveats¶

linux-rtsig may interfere with Perl-based CGI.
freebsd-kqueue and poll on OS X 10.5 (Leopard) seem buggy. Use select or libev instead.
