UV::Req - An outstanding request in libuv

SYNOPSIS

  #!/usr/bin/env perl
  use strict;
  use warnings;

  use UV;

  my $loop = UV::Loop->default;

  # A pending getaddrinfo is represented by a UV::Req
  my $req = $loop->getaddrinfo(node => "localhost", service => "8080");

  $req->cancel;

DESCRIPTION

This module provides an interface to libuv's req. Objects in this type are not directly constructed, but are returned by methods that perform some pending action, to represent the outstanding operation before it completes.

METHODS

UV::Req makes the following methods available.

cancel

    $req->cancel

Stops the pending operation. The exact semantics will depend on the type of operation the request represents.
