[Libevent-users] Documentation of object ownership/lifecycle

[Florian Lohoff]

Hi,

i was once again reading the manpage and the doxygen documentation on the
webpages but i was really confused on whether e.g. "bufferevent_write_buffer"
takes over ownership of the passed evbuffer. I mean evbuffer_new is the
source of the evbuffers but who is the consumer or sink? 

Its hard to understand from the documentation what the lifecycle of an
evbuffer is within the callbacks, evbuffer and bufferevent API.

I mean - i find my way by gdb and valgrind - either crash or memleak
shows the misusage of the API but i guess fixing the documentation
would be helpful to a lot of interested partys.

But anyway - thanks for libevent - great tool i dont want to miss.

Flo
