Compatibility with tokio crate (not tokio-core)

[Kixunil]

This crate still requires handle for UnixStream, UnixStream and UnixDatagram constructors (connect, bind, pair...)

It should be changed to support tokio crate and the new style of writing Tokio-based services.

Is there a workaround until tokio-uds is updated? Or is it not possible to use it with the tokio crate right now?

[carllerche]

There is an open PR to update: #29

@maufl You can always use tokio-uds w/ tokio-core as tokio-core uses tokio + Runtime under the hood. That said, it would be better to get tokio-uds updated now 👍

@carllerche Agree, but I'm not only asking because of tokio-uds but all the other tokio crates too. This is probably the wrong place, but if I want to start using tokio::run and tokio::spawn, is there a way to get a Handle to the reactor of the runtime so that I can continue using existing tokio crates? Or is this not possible without creating a reactor using tokio-core?

[carllerche]

It is not possible to go from tokio::run -> tokio_core::Handle. Only the other way around.

[maufl]

Thanks, that answers my question.

[carllerche]

This issue should be resolved by the misc PRs that landed. There will be a release shortly. Thanks all.
