The libevent API provides a mechanism to execute a callback function when
|
|
a specific event occurs on a file descriptor or after a timeout has been
|
|
reached. Furthermore, libevent also support callbacks due to signals or
|
|
regular timeouts.
|
|
|
|
libevent is meant to replace the event loop found in event driven network
|
|
servers. An application just needs to call event_dispatch() and then add or
|
|
remove events dynamically without having to change the event loop.
