Leonardo,

All events generated by the libevent are catched internally by the ompi library, but are not propagated until the next call to opal_progress. If you want to use alarms that trigger outside the opal_progress you will have to deal directly with the libevent (and not use ORTE_TIMER_EVENT).

Hi All,

Does the libevent works with an application which does not communicate?

i.e. I have an application which does not receive or send messages for a long time, but on the PML layer a have defined some event using the ORTE_TIMER_EVENT(time, func) macro. This macro will be should be called after time seconds, no? On my tests it does not occur, only if any communication occurs.

Did I made any mistake?
