The gasync (GIMX asynchronous) library is the evolution of the GE (GIMX events) library.
In addition to input devices, gasync also handles the following components:
- serial ports (DIY USB adapter)
- high-resolution timers (delayed or periodic tasks)
- USB devices (authentication sources)
- HID devices (Logitech Wheels, GPP/Cronus/Titan One)
It also provides a default waiting interface based on poll on GNU/Linux and MsgWaitForMultipleObject on Windows.
GNU/Linux implementation
| gpoll | ginput | gserial | gtimer | gusb | ghid | ||
| poll | evdev | jsdev | X.Org Xi2 | termios | timerfd | libusb | |
Notes:
- ghid is not based on hidraw because write() does not support non-blocking mode.
- Being based on libusb, ghid claims the HID interface and detaches the kernel driver. guhid is a uhid wrapper to allow connecting the device back with the kernel.
Windows implementation
| gpoll | ginput | gserial | gtimer | gusb | ghid | |
| MsgWaitForMultipleObject | Raw Input | libSDL | COM ports | Waitable Timers | libusb | HID API |
Notes:
- The libSDL events are processed synchronously.
