<p>Cogl needs to integrate with the application's main loop so that it
can internally handle some events from the driver. All Cogl
applications must use these functions. They provide enough
information to describe the state that Cogl will need to wake up
on. An application using the GLib main loop can instead use
<a class="link" href="cogl-2.0-experimental-Main-loop-integration.html#cogl-glib-source-new" title="cogl_glib_source_new ()"><code class="function">cogl_glib_source_new()</code></a> which provides a <span class="type">GSource</span> ready to be added
to the main loop.</p>

<p>Is used to integrate Cogl with an application mainloop that is based
on the unix poll(2) api (or <code class="function">select()</code> or something equivalent). This
api should be called whenever an application is about to go idle so
that Cogl has a chance to describe what file descriptor events it
needs to be woken up for.</p>
<div class="note">If your application is using the Glib mainloop then you
should jump to the <a class="link" href="cogl-2.0-experimental-Main-loop-integration.html#cogl-glib-source-new" title="cogl_glib_source_new ()"><code class="function">cogl_glib_source_new()</code></a> api as a more convenient
way of integrating Cogl with the mainloop.</div>
<p>After the function is called *<em class="parameter"><code>poll_fds</code></em>
will contain a pointer to
an array of <a class="link" href="cogl-2.0-experimental-Main-loop-integration.html#CoglPollFD" title="CoglPollFD"><span class="type">CoglPollFD</span></a> structs describing the file descriptors
that Cogl expects. The fd and events members will be updated
accordingly. After the application has completed its idle it is
expected to either update the revents members directly in this
array or to create a copy of the array and update them
there.</p>
<p>When the application mainloop returns from calling poll(2) (or its
equivalent) then it should call <a class="link" href="cogl-2.0-experimental-Main-loop-integration.html#cogl-poll-renderer-dispatch" title="cogl_poll_renderer_dispatch ()"><code class="function">cogl_poll_renderer_dispatch()</code></a>
passing a pointer the array of CoglPollFDs with updated
revent values.</p>

don't make any sense) or <a class="link" href="cogl-2.0-experimental-CoglRenderer---Connect-to-a-backend-renderer.html#COGL-WINSYS-ID-SDL:CAPS"><code class="literal">COGL_WINSYS_ID_SDL</code></a> (where the event
handling functions of SDL don't allow blocking on a file
descriptor) *n_poll_fds is guaranteed to be zero.</p>
<p><em class="parameter"><code>timeout</code></em>
will contain a maximum amount of time to wait in
microseconds before the application should wake up or -1 if the
application should wait indefinitely. This can also be 0 if
Cogl needs to be woken up immediately.</p>

<p> A "poll fd state age" that changes whenever the set
of poll_fds has changed. If this API is being used to
integrate with another system mainloop api then
knowing if the set of file descriptors and events has
really changed can help avoid redundant work
depending the api. The age isn't guaranteed to change
when the timeout changes.</p>
