[Libevent-users] Assertion failed - Invalid signal or error

[Gerrit Niezen (Trispen)]

Hi,

I have a Win32 build of libevent (from 
http://www.datanerds.net/~mike/libevent.html) and I'm trying to run it 
in Visual Studio 2005. Everything builds fine, but when I try to run the 
example event_test it fails on an assertion:

Program: winsig.c
Line: 419
Expression: Invalid signal or error

Call Stack shows the following:

event_test.exe!signal(int signum=4072, void (int)* sigact=0x00000001)  
Line 419 + 0x40 bytes    C

event_test.exe!__tmainCRTStartup()  Line 318 + 0x19 bytes    C
event_test.exe!mainCRTStartup()  Line 187    C

Does this mean it crashes when the event is deleted? Why would something 
like this happen?

Thank you in advance,
Gerrit Niezen
