libevent Integration Into NetBSD

Posted by timothy on from the what's-happening-and-how-often dept.

Dan writes "Niels Provos says this is a heads up for the upcoming integration of libevent into the NetBSD source tree. Libevent provides a simple API to abstract event notification and handling. Applications are notified via callbacks on IO events, timers and signals. Libevent is meant to replace the event loop found in event driven software."

    It's been on openbsd for some time, and it's really nice to work with. unfortunately openbsd is still using libevent 0.5, while the latest version is 0.7 (there were some performance improvements, iirc).
