Used to read from non-socket ACE_HANDLEs in our own thread to work around Win32 limitations that don't allow us to <select> on non-sockets (such as ACE_STDIN). This is commonly used in situations where the Reactor is used to demultiplex read events on ACE_STDIN on UNIX. Note that <event_handler> must be a subclass of <ACE_Event_Handler>. If the <get_handle> method of this event handler returns <ACE_INVALID_HANDLE> we default to reading from ACE_STDIN.

ACE_Event_Handler::Reference_Count ACE_Event_Handler::remove_reference | ( | void |  | ) | `[virtual]`

Decrement reference count on the handler.

This method is called when the handler is removed from the Reactor and when an upcall made on the handler by the Reactor completes. Handler is deleted when the reference count reaches 0.

Returns:
  Current reference count.

int ACE_Event_Handler::remove_stdin_handler | ( | ACE_Reactor * | reactor,
|  | ACE_Thread_Manager * | thr_mgr
| ) | `[static]`
