libuev - Asynchronous event loop library ======================================== The libuev library is a small event library in the style of the venerable Xt(3) event loop. Basically an event context is created,and handlers for timeounts and stream events can be registered with this context. After initial setup, the typical application will enter the event loop that will only return at program termination. The C API --------- The typical application will do the following steps 1. Create the event context with lueCtxtCreate() 2. Register initial callbacks with lueAddInput, lueAddOutput and lueAddTimer 3. Enter the event loop Building -------- Use make: * make all: The library * make test: Test and showcase Installation ------------ Is purely manual, but would be something along the lines of: sudo install -m 444 libuev.so.1 /usr/lib/libuev.so.1 Warning ------- Not thread safe! The ctxt structure needs mutex protection in case of multi threaded access.
