TEST2::EVENT::WAITING(3perl)

πŸ’– Test2::Event::Waiting β€” the "we're done here besties" event πŸ’–

okay so this is a page from the Perl Programmers Reference Guide (yes, the real one, Test2::Event::Waiting(3perl), no cap) and honestly? it's short. it's giving "little icon, huge energy". let's go πŸ¦‹


✨ NAME ✨

Test2::Event::Waiting β€” tell all procs/threads it is time to be done πŸ’…

like. the group chat message that says "okay everyone wrap it up". periodt.


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

this event has no data of its own. none. zero. it's not carrying payload, it's not carrying lore, it's just a vibe. ✨

this event gets sent out by the IPC system when the main process/thread is ready to end. that's it, that's the whole job. the main character has decided the party is over, and this event is the "alright bestie, we're leaving" text that goes out to everybody. 🫢

ngl it's the most minimal event you'll ever meet and that's exactly why she's iconic πŸ’–
