Determining what a script is waiting for.

[PopeNobody]

I'm curious as to whether there is, from javascript, a way to enumerate active handles and active requests in the event loop.

Specifically, I'd like to be able to find out why a node script that I think should have exited does not agree with me.

Usually, it seems, it's because I've made a promise I have not kept ...

But it would save me some hair pulling if I could determine which of my promises are unfulfilled.

I found uv_loop_alive, and it seems to reduce to two things: active handles and active requests ( I am assuming that req is short for request ) .. but I have no idea how to convert those back to a notion that is meaningful in javascript.
