Dominik Picheta b3469c43a6 Implemented 'await connect' fully. Fixed a buffering and 'reqReg' bug.
* reqReq did not reset lastReq to reqNil, this caused problems in the
new tasyncitermacro test. (await accept stopped accepting requests after
some arbitrary amount have been accepted).
* Rewritten and moved tasyncitermacro to tests/run/ so that the tester
actually tests whether it works at runtime.
* tasynciterraw is now a copy of tasyncitermacro after macro expansion.
It will be used as a control test, useful if the macro starts generating
incorrect code.

import sockets, os, macros, strutils
## This module implements an asynchronous event loop together with asynchronous sockets
## which use this event loop.
## It is akin to Python's asyncore module. Many modules that use sockets
## have an implementation for this module, those modules should all have a
## ``register`` function which you should use to add the desired objects to a
## dispatcher which you created so
## that you can receive the events associated with that module's object.
##
## Once everything is registered in a dispatcher, you need to call the ``poll``
## function in a while loop.
##
## **Note:** Most modules have tasks which need to be ran regularly, this is
## why you should not call ``poll`` with a infinite timeout, or even a
## very long one. In most cases the default timeout is fine.
##
## **Note:** This module currently only supports select(), this is limited by
## FD_SETSIZE, which is usually 1024. So you may only be able to use 1024
## sockets at a time.
##
## Most (if not all) modules that use asyncio provide a userArg which is passed
## on with the events. The type that you set userArg to must be inheriting from
## TObject!
##
## **Note:** If you are after using this module to provide async functionality
## for one of your modules then it is best to use PAsyncSocket if your module
## only requires sockets. For non-socket objects with a select-like interface
## a TDelegate implementation should be created, if one doesn't already exist.
##
## **Warning:** The API of this module is unstable, and therefore is subject
## to change.
##
## Asynchronous sockets
## ====================
##
## For most purposes you do not need to worry about the ``TDelegate`` type. The
## ``PAsyncSocket`` is what you are after. It's a reference to the ``TAsyncSocket``
## object. This object defines events which you should overwrite by your own
## procedures.
##
## For server sockets the only event you need to worry about is the ``handleAccept``
## event, in your handleAccept proc you should call ``accept`` on the server
## socket which will give you the client which is connecting. You should then
## set any events that you want to use on that client and add it to your dispatcher
## using the ``register`` procedure.
##
## An example ``handleAccept`` follows:
##
## .. code-block:: nimrod
##
## var disp: PDispatcher = newDispatcher()
## ...
## proc handleAccept(s: PAsyncSocket) =
## echo("Accepted client.")
## var client: PAsyncSocket
## new(client)
## s.accept(client)
## client.handleRead = ...
## disp.register(client)
## ...
##
## For client sockets you should only be interested in the ``handleRead`` and
## ``handleConnect`` events. The former gets called whenever the socket has
## received messages and can be read from and the latter gets called whenever
## the socket has established a connection to a server socket; from that point
## it can be safely written to.
##
## Getting a blocking client from a PAsyncSocket
## =============================================
##
## If you need a asynchronous server socket but you wish to process the clients
## synchronously then you can use the ``getSocket`` converter to get a TSocket
## object from the PAsyncSocket object, this can then be combined with ``accept``
## like so:
##
## .. code-block:: nimrod
##
## proc handleAccept(s: PAsyncSocket) =
## var client: TSocket
## getSocket(s).accept(client)

## Asynchronous IO without callbacks
## =====================
## The implementation of this is similar to what is known as ``futures``
## in other languages. The ``await`` keyword is used to call a procedure
## which is marked with an ``{.async.}`` pragma. The ``async`` procedures
## get transformed into an iterator. When you execute a procedure which may
## block using ``await`` then the execution of your procedure will stop
## until the procedure you executed has completed. While your procedure's
## execution is stopped, other async procedures can continue executing.
##
## The built-in functions which can be used using ``await`` are listed below:
##
## .. code-block:: nimrod
##
## proc send*(socket: PAsyncSocket, text: string) {.async.} =
##
## Sends ``text`` to ``socket`` asynchronously.
##
## .. code-block:: nimrod
##
## proc accept*(socket: PAsyncSocket): PAsyncSocket {.async.} =
##
## Accepts a client connecting to a server socket asynchronously.
## Returns that client.
##
## You may also define your own async procedures by annotating them with
## the ``{.async.}`` pragma, please note however that currently you cannot
## overload these procedures.
