| ## IO integration {#io_page} |
| |
| **Unsettled API** - The IO interfaces are new and remain subject to |
| change. |
| |
| The @ref proactor is a portable, proactive, asynchronous API for |
| single- or multithreaded applications. It associates AMQP @ref |
| connection "connections" with network connections (@ref transport |
| "transports") and allows one or more threads to handle @ref event |
| "events". |
| |
| The @ref connection\_driver is a low-level SPI to feed byte streams |
| from any source to the protocol engine. You can use it to integrate |
| Proton directly with a foreign event loop or IO library, or to |
| implement your own @ref proactor to transparently replace Proton's IO |
| layer. |
