Potentially non-threadsafe versions of the functions in event.h: provided only for backwards compatibility. In the oldest versions of Libevent, event_base was not a first-class structure. Instead, there was a single event base that every function manipulated. Later, when separate event bases were added, the old functions that didn't take an event_base argument needed to work by manipulating the 'current' event base. This could lead to thread-safety issues, and obscure, hard-to-diagnose bugs.
Deprecated
All functions in this file are by definition deprecated.
Loop to process events. Like event_base_dispatch(), but uses the 'current' base.
Deprecated
This function is deprecated because it is easily confused by multiple calls to event_init(), and because it is not safe for multithreaded use. The replacement is event_base_dispatch().
See Also:
event_base_dispatch(), event_init()
Get the kernel event notification mechanism used by Libevent. Deprecated
This function is obsolete, and has been replaced by event_base_get_method(). Its use is deprecated because it relies on the 'current' base configured by event_init().
See Also:
event_base_get_method()
Initialize the event API. The event API needs to be initialized with event_init() before it can be used. Sets the global current base that gets used for events that have no base associated with them.
Deprecated
This function is deprecated because it replaces the 'current' event_base, and is totally unsafe for multithreaded use. The replacement is event_base_new().
See Also:
event_base_set(), event_base_new()
Handle events. This function behaves like event_base_loop(), but uses the 'current' base
Deprecated
This function is deprecated because it uses the event base from the last call to event_init, and is therefore not safe for multithreaded use. The replacement is event_base_loop().
See Also:
event_base_loop(), event_init()
Abort the active event_loop() immediately. This function behaves like event_base_loopbreakt(), except that it uses the 'current' base.
Deprecated
This function is deprecated because it uses the event base from the last call to event_init, and is therefore not safe for multithreaded use. The replacement is event_base_loopbreak().
See Also:
event_base_loopbreak(), event_init()
Exit the event loop after the specified time. This function behaves like event_base_loopexit(), except that it uses the 'current' base.
Deprecated
This function is deprecated because it uses the event base from the last call to event_init, and is therefore not safe for multithreaded use. The replacement is event_base_loopexit().
See Also:
event_init, event_base_loopexit()
Schedule a one-time event to occur. Deprecated
This function is obsolete, and has been replaced by event_base_once(). Its use is deprecated because it relies on the 'current' base configured by event_init().
See Also:
event_base_once()
Set the number of different event priorities. Deprecated
This function is deprecated because it is easily confused by multiple calls to event_init(), and because it is not safe for multithreaded use. The replacement is event_base_priority_init().
See Also:
event_base_priority_init()
Prepare an event structure to be added. Deprecated
event_set() is not recommended for new code, because it requires a subsequent call to event_base_set() to be safe under most circumstances. Use event_assign() or event_new() instead.
