I have only used libevent, but never libev. How unfortunate that two projects duplicate the exact same goals. According to quick searches on the net, neither libevent nor libev seems to work well with Bionic (Android's libc). However, for Android, we could simply roll our own event loop. That's not too hard, and the scalability of libevent/libev is not required here. (And anyway, unlike libevent/libev, GLib's GMainLoop doesn't use epoll; therefore a custom event loop will not be worse than using GLib) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master Visual Studio, SharePoint, SQL, ASP.NET, C# 2012, HTML5, CSS, MVC, Windows 8 Apps, JavaScript and much more.
