If you're calling event_base_loopbreak from another thread and it isn't shutting down the main event_base_dispatch loop, it sounds like you probably didn't enable threading before creating the event base. Have a look at the evthread_use_pthreads() and evthread_use_windows_threads() functions and their documentation? -- -- Nick *********************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to majordomo <at> freehaven.net with unsubscribe libevent-users in the body.
