Re: [Libevent-users] Simple question about multithreading SSL bufferevents.

[John <jjchnk-libevent@xxxxxxxxx>]

Nick,

I have made my code capable of running multiple sets of single-threaded SSL bufferevent+event_base (i.e. works with current libevent 2.0) as well as able to run fully multithreaded (breaks with current libevent 2.0) I will be happy to test the changes in my real softwarewhich would probably be a better stress test than the simple test software I posted before.

Thanks,
-John

FWIW, I can confirm that my current "21_deadlock_fix" branch makes
your example code run as expected.  See the thread "RFC: strategy for
deadlock avoidance and safe finalization in Libevent 2.1" from earlier
this month for more information on that.  I hope to clean it up in the
next few days and merge it soon. Ideally, I would like to get the next
Libevent 2.1.x-alpha released over this weekend.

best wishes,
