README

Php asynchronous multi-processing library

• Forking capabilities
• Asynchronous event handling via libevent
• The routing uses a flood-like algo to route messages accross a tree of processes
• Internal process communication via socket pairs A message is any type of payload and can be unicast or broadcast. There is currently no multicast support (aka group). Thus it can be achieved via aliasing processes before fork, it was not made for this purpose
• Application developper are responsible for defining listeners and writing their own application code.
