[Twisted-Python] _pollingfile._PollingTimer

Oct. 1, 2006

      Since the _PollingTimer can be reused for a possible console support,
why not to make it a public "simil reactor"?

As an example:

class UPollReactor(object):
   """User mode polling reactor, for Windows.

      Note that this is not a real reactor.
   """

   def addResource(self, resource, action):
	...

   def run():
      # add a fake resource, just to do the job done by twistd with the
      # TimeService
      ...

twistd can, as an example, always "run" the UPollReactor when on a
windows system.
