Description-en: Asynchronous event notification library (openssl)
Libevent is an asynchronous event notification library that provides a
mechanism to execute a callback function when a specific event occurs
on a file descriptor or after a timeout has been reached.
.
It is meant to replace the asynchronous event loop found in
event driven network servers. Currently, libevent supports /dev/poll,
kqueue(2), event ports, select(2), poll(2) and epoll(4).
.
There is now a bufferevent type that supports SSL/TLS using the
OpenSSL library. The code for this is build in a separate
library, libevent_openssl, so that your programs don't need to
link against OpenSSL unless they actually want SSL support.
