[Libevent-users] Using Chunked callback

[Lyes Amazouz]

Hello everybody!

I want to use the libevent library in order to create a server that allow
the client to the content of a distant file. But the data has to be
transmitted chunk per chunk.

I've seen that in the libevent  we have, in the server side, the function
evhttp_send_reply_chunk(struct evhttp_request *req, struct evbuffer * buf),
and I want to know if buf represents the chunk itself or the whole data that
will be sent chunked. And if all the chunks will be sent in a single
response to the requester or I have to reclaim them by sending a request for
each chunk till the data will be all transmitted.

In the client side, we can set a chunked callback function for a request
object. Will this function regroup all the sent chunks in a single call to
recover the data, or have I to write a loop on it??

-- Cheers
