EvLoop::run

Begin checking for events and calling callbacks for the loop

Description

public void EvLoop::run ([ int $flags = 0 ] )

Begin checking for events and calling callbacks for the current event loop. Returns when a callback calls Ev::stop method, or the flags are nonzero(in which case the return value is true) or when there are no active watchers which reference the loop( EvWatcher::keepalive is TRUE), in which case the return value will be FALSE. The return value can generally be interpreted as if TRUE, there is more work left to do .
