[Libevent-users] Event loop not exiting when freeing bufferevent

[Bas Verhoeven <libevent@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Me again!

I was wondering. The documentation says that the libevent loop exits 
when there are no events left to process. For some reason my event loop 
keeps running tho, even after I've disabled the bufferevent and have 
freed it.

My bufferevent is created with the 'BEV_OPT_CLOSE_ON_FREE' flag.

I'm calling the following snippet of code when I receive an event with 
the BEV_EVENT_EOF flag set:

 printf("Connection lost, freeing bufferevent..\n");
 bufferevent_disable(client->event, EV_READ|EV_WRITE);
 bufferevent_free(client->event);

That seems to work fine (no errors occur, bufferevent_disable() returns 
0 and I can see the printf), but libevent keeps looping. Shouldn't it 
have stopped because I closed the last bufferevent? I've tried without 
the '_disable' initially, but no changes there.

Am I doing something wrong? Is there a way to see what libevent is 
currently doing?
