Package pyxmpp2 :: Package mainloop :: Module threads

Module threads

I/O Handling classes

This module has a purpose similar to asyncore from the base library, but should be more usable, especially for PyXMPP.

Also, these interfaces should allow building application not only in asynchronous event loop model, but also threaded model.
