[Libevent-users] [PATCH] Allow evhttp server to use alternative event_base

[Niels Provos]

Hi Paul,

thank you very much for your patch.  Unfortunately, something very
similar is already present in trunk:

/** Create a new HTTP server
 *
 * @param base (optional) the event base to receive the HTTP events
 * @return a pointer to a newly initialized evhttp server structure
 */
struct evhttp *evhttp_new(struct event_base *base);

/**
 * Start an HTTP server on the specified address and port.
 *
 * Can be called multiple times to bind the same http server
 * to multiple different ports.
 *
 * @param address a string containing the IP address to listen(2) on
 * @param port the port number to listen on
 * @return a newly allocated evhttp struct
 * @see evhttp_free()
 */
int evhttp_bind_socket(struct evhttp *http, const char *address, u_short port);


Niels.
