Detailed Description

A reference-counted handle to a file descriptor.

In addition, FileDescriptor tracks EOF state and calls to FileDescriptor::read and FileDescriptor::write, which EventLoop uses to detect busy loop conditions.

For an example of FileDescriptor use, see the EventLoop class documentation.
