I have had no problems using loops inside background threads. Just
create a new loop in that thread an ev_loop on it.
Using ev_async's to communicate between loops that are being pumped in
different threads seems to work nicely.
Just use ev_loop_new to create a new loop, and then ev_loop on that
newly created loop. If you need to handle signals, you'll want to use
the default loop though.

I need to embed a very simple server in a Mac carbon bundle that will be
loaded when a GUI starts up. It can’t hang the main thread as the GUI
needs to start responding to user interaction. So I can’t start an
ev_loop in the main thread. Are there any examples of people starting
the ev_loop in another thread in this sort of situation? I am not an
experienced C programmer and was just hoping to build a simple webserver
that will serve up one file.
Thanks!
