Description

Instances of the system class async-io-state can be used to perform asynchronous I/O.

The reader async-io-state-collection returns the wait-state-collection associated with an async-io-state.

The reader async-io-state-object returns the object that was supplied in the call to create-async-io-state that created the async-io-state.

The accessor async-io-state-name is used to access the name of an async-io-state. The name can be any Lisp object that names the state for debugging purposes.

The accessor async-io-state-read-timeout is used to access the read-timeout of an async-io-state. The read-timeout is nil if there is no timeout and otherwise is a positive real representing the timeout in seconds.

The accessor async-io-state-write-timeout is used to access the write-timeout of an async-io-state. The write-timeout is nil if there is no timeout and otherwise is a positive real representing the timeout in seconds.

The accessor async-io-state-user-info is used to access the user-info of an async-io-state. The user-info can be any Lisp object and LispWorks itself does not use it for any purpose.
