George,

I made some tests with the libevent but probably I´m doing something wrong... because it does not work.

struct timeval time;
opal_event_t *ev;

ev = (opal_event_t*)malloc(sizeof(opal_event_t));
opal_evtimer_set(ev, my_func, NULL);
time.tv_sec = 10;
time.tv_usec = 0;
opal_evtimer_add(ev, &time);

I saw that opal_evtimer_add/set are macros for event_add/set (from libevent, no?) I´m trying to put this code on a PML, but on this application no messages are exchanged.

Thanks,
Leonardo

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?
