I want to use libev with multiple threads for the handling of tcp connections. What I want to is:
1. The main thread listen on incoming connections, accept the connections and forward the connection to a workerthread. 2. I have a pool of workerthreads. The number of threads depends on the number of cpu's. Each worker-thread has an event loop. The worker-thread listen if I can write on the tcp socket or if somethings available for reading. I looked into the documentation of libev and I known this can be done with libev, but I can't find any example how I have to do that. Does someone has an example? I think that I have to use the ev_loop_new() api, for the worker-threads and for the main thread I have to use the ev_default_loop() ? Since I new in using libev I really need an example how to dispatch an incoming tcp connection to a worker-thread. I have started to implement it, but I don't get it work. In the main thread I start the default loop. And if I received new connection I create a watcher and use the ev_io_start with the loop that I create in the workerthread. It seems that the callback function of the watcher is not always triggered. Also Is there a way to block the ev_loop if there no active watchers ? regards.
