/** @mainpage
@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.

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.
