I guess it would change the API. You could have a separate file where you define an enum with all module identifiers plus a max value that all modules should include. Then you could omit whole hashmap dance and just use a static array. Then even an IDE or your text editor could give completions easily.
That would be less dynamic, but it's all a game of tradeoffs.
It could be beneficial to also support poll, as it's more portable and should be faster for low fd number. Probably not worth the hassle for a side project though.
BTW: nice clean and simple library. I'm more inclined towards libdill and coroutines, but they are certainly more complicated under the hood.
- nierro 9y agoOh i see, that is what i firstly thought reading your comment. Yes, that surely would work out pretty well and would be slightly lighter too. But it would lack flexibility and simplicity that are my key points for libmodule. Thanks for your suggestion and feedback though, they are really appreciated. And thanks for the hint on recv(), how could i miss that!
