Creating a Resource Monitor
Processing an Asynchronous Notification
Processing an Asynchronous Notification
Use asynchronous notification to respond to a message that arrives from
some source other than the EMS API. This event applies only to resource
monitors that use the select(2) parameters.
The way the RM_SELECT_EVENT and RM_TIMEOUT_EVENT events are
handled by the resource monitor is dependent on their implementation.
Use the same methods you use for standard select(2) events.
For an example of code using asynchronous notification, see the section,
“Defining an Internal Timeout.”
