- * INPUT: There is at least one byte in the input buffer
- * OUTPUT: The system is sure that the next write call will not block
- * CONNECTION: Two cases are possible:
- * Client socket -> the connection is established
- * Server socket -> a client requests a connection
- * LOST: The connection is lost
- *
- * An event is generated only once and its state is reseted when the
- * relative IO call is requested.
- * For example: INPUT -> GSocket_Read()
- * CONNECTION -> GSocket_Accept()
+/* GSOCK_INPUT:
+ * There is data to be read in the input buffer. If, after a read
+ * operation, there is still data available, the callback function will
+ * be called again.
+ * GSOCK_OUTPUT:
+ * The socket is available for writing. That is, the next write call
+ * won't block. This event is generated only once, when the connection is
+ * first established, and then only if a call failed with GSOCK_WOULDBLOCK,
+ * when the output buffer empties again. This means that the app should
+ * assume that it can write since the first OUTPUT event, and no more
+ * OUTPUT events will be generated unless an error occurs.
+ * GSOCK_CONNECTION:
+ * Connection succesfully established, for client sockets, or incoming
+ * client connection, for server sockets. Wait for this event (also watch
+ * out for GSOCK_LOST) after you issue a nonblocking GSocket_Connect() call.
+ * GSOCK_LOST:
+ * The connection is lost (or a connection request failed); this could
+ * be due to a failure, or due to the peer closing it gracefully.
