+
+ @section intro Introduction
+
+ libevent is an event notification library for developing scalable network
+ servers. 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.
+
+ Currently, libevent supports /dev/poll, kqueue(2), select(2), poll(2) and
+ epoll(4). It also has experimental support for real-time signals. The
+ internal event mechanism is completely independent of the exposed event API,
+ and a simple update of libevent can provide new functionality without having
+ to redesign the applications. As a result, Libevent allows for portable
+ application development and provides the most scalable event notification
+ mechanism available on an operating system. Libevent can also be used for
+ multi-threaded aplications; see Steven Grimm's explanation. Libevent should
+ compile on Linux, *BSD, Mac OS X, Solaris and Windows.
+
+ @section usage Standard usage
+
+ Every program that uses libevent must include the <event.h> header, and pass
+ the -levent flag to the linker. Before using any of the functions in the
+ library, you must call event_init() or event_base_new() to perform one-time
+ initialization of the libevent library.
+
+ @section event Event notification
+
+ For each file descriptor that you wish to monitor, you must declare an event
+ structure and call event_set() to initialize the members of the structure.
+ To enable notification, you add the structure to the list of monitored
+ events by calling event_add(). The event structure must remain allocated as
+ long as it is active, so it should be allocated on the heap. Finally, you
+ call event_dispatch() to loop and dispatch events.
+
+ @section bufferevent I/O Buffers
+
+ libevent provides an abstraction on top of the regular event callbacks. This
+ abstraction is called a buffered event. A buffered event provides input and
+ output buffers that get filled and drained automatically. The user of a
+ buffered event no longer deals directly with the I/O, but instead is reading
+ from input and writing to output buffers.
+
+ Once initialized via bufferevent_new(), the bufferevent structure can be
+ used repeatedly with bufferevent_enable() and bufferevent_disable().
+ Instead of reading and writing directly to a socket, you would call
+ bufferevent_read() and bufferevent_write().
+
+ When read enabled the bufferevent will try to read from the file descriptor
+ and call the read callback. The write callback is executed whenever the
+ output buffer is drained below the write low watermark, which is 0 by
+ default.
+
+ @section timers Timers
+
+ libevent can also be used to create timers that invoke a callback after a
+ certain amount of time has expired. The evtimer_set() function prepares an
+ event struct to be used as a timer. To activate the timer, call
+ evtimer_add(). Timers can be deactivated by calling evtimer_del().
+
+ @section timeouts Timeouts
+
+ In addition to simple timers, libevent can assign timeout events to file
+ descriptors that are triggered whenever a certain amount of time has passed
+ with no activity on a file descriptor. The timeout_set() function
+ initializes an event struct for use as a timeout. Once initialized, the
+ event must be activated by using timeout_add(). To cancel the timeout, call
+ timeout_del().
+
+ @section evdns Asynchronous DNS resolution
+
+ libevent provides an asynchronous DNS resolver that should be used instead
+ of the standard DNS resolver functions. These functions can be imported by
+ including the <evdns.h> header in your program. Before using any of the
+ resolver functions, you must call evdns_init() to initialize the library. To
+ convert a hostname to an IP address, you call the evdns_resolve_ipv4()
+ function. To perform a reverse lookup, you would call the
+ evdns_resolve_reverse() function. All of these functions use callbacks to
+ avoid blocking while the lookup is performed.
+
+ @section evhttp Event-driven HTTP servers
+
+ libevent provides a very simple event-driven HTTP server that can be
+ embedded in your program and used to service HTTP requests.
+
+ To use this capability, you need to include the <evhttp.h> header in your
+ program. You create the server by calling evhttp_new(). Add addresses and
+ ports to listen on with evhttp_bind_socket(). You then register one or more
+ callbacks to handle incoming requests. Each URI can be assigned a callback
+ via the evhttp_set_cb() function. A generic callback function can also be
+ registered via evhttp_set_gencb(); this callback will be invoked if no other
+ callbacks have been registered for a given URI.
+
+ @section evrpc A framework for RPC servers and clients
+
+ libevents provides a framework for creating RPC servers and clients. It
+ takes care of marshaling and unmarshaling all data structures.

+ Create a new bufferevent.
+
+ libevent provides an abstraction on top of the regular event callbacks.
+ This abstraction is called a buffered event. A buffered event provides
+ input and output buffers that get filled and drained automatically. The
+ user of a buffered event no longer deals directly with the I/O, but
+ instead is reading from input and writing to output buffers.
+
+ Once initialized, the bufferevent structure can be used repeatedly with
+ bufferevent_enable() and bufferevent_disable().
+
+ When read enabled the bufferevent will try to read from the file descriptor
+ and call the read callback. The write callback is executed whenever the
+ output buffer is drained below the write low watermark, which is 0 by
+ default.
+
+ If multiple bases are in use, bufferevent_base_set() must be called before
+ enabling the bufferevent for the first time.
