Hi Nick,
a short one about events: I was assuming that
evbuffer_add_reference(evb, tx.buffer.ptr, tx.buffer.slen, onsent, ref);
would call the "onsent" callback asynchroneously (having a bufferevent
with the BEV_OPT_DEFER_CALLBACKS option set on instantiation).
Apparently, this is not right, as the onsent-callback appears instantly
(as long as the bev is not on its high watermark).
My idea was to use that kind of callback to fetch the next piece of data
to send, but in the current implementation, this leads to a recursion
(on the stack).
So my question: is that intended behaviour? If yes, should I queue an
event (e.g. timer with timeval = { 0, 0 }) to unwind the stack before
actually calling my onsent handler?
Any tips appreciated!
Roman
