You shouldn't need to call evbuffer_write() manually on a bufferevent's output buffer, and you shouldn't call evbuffer_drain() after evbuffer_write() since evbuffer_write() removes the data itself after writing it. Just use evbuffer_add to add the information to the output buffer, and the write event on the buffer will make it get written to the network. best wishes, -- Nick *********************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to majord...@freehaven.net with unsubscribe libevent-users in the body.
