Integrating with the libuv timer

[shtaif]

Hi,

I'm trying to integrate rxcpp into libuv, utilizing it's timers, thread pool, etc. through the rxcpp constructs.

I'm currently trying to make a scheduler which delegates the scheduling over to libuv. As part of this I guess I need to implement different versions of logic for either "timer" operations and "interval" operations.

How would you recommend me to go about that? :) I'm kind of new to the library and still struggling to grasp these concepts and their relations.

Thank you :) :)

Hi!

One approach is the one taken by these integrations with ASIO

1. https://github.com/pudae/example/blob/master/rx_test/rxasio/io_service.hpp
2. https://gist.github.com/windoze/a6e684143833d5d65ba6

Another approach is to use the run_loop scheduler, as the twitter app does, to integrate with the SDL event loop.
