Remove futures2 feature from Cargo.toml files (#334)
Currently, the state of the futures2 integration is pretty broken. This
patch removes the feature flag, preventing users from trying to use it.
In the future, it can be brought back when the implementation is fixed.

tokio-reactor

Event loop that drives Tokio I/O resources.

Documentation

Overview

The reactor is the engine that drives asynchronous I/O resources (like TCP and UDP sockets). It is backed by mio and acts as a bridge between mio and futures.

The crate provides:

  • Reactor is the main type of this crate. It performs the event loop logic.

  • Handle provides a reference to a reactor instance.

  • Registration and PollEvented allow third parties to implement I/O resources that are driven by the reactor.

Application authors will not use this crate directly. Instead, they will use the tokio crate. Library authors should only depend on tokio-reactor if they are building a custom I/O resource.
