Thanks. It works perfectly with VS 2008.
To create a dll I had to:
- apply changes your "patch"
- remove the 'event-config.h' from main dir (not sure if that's needed)
Yep, I noted it that in the message - I couldn't do that in a separate
tarball, and I was too lazy to make a proper patch that should be able
to do that.
- in the project properties change 'configuration type' to 'dynamic library'
Yeah, libevent normally just builds a library to link directly with your
application.
- in properties/linker/input add 'ws2_32.lib' to 'additional dependencies'
Hmmm, I think I took that out of the project myself - didn't seem to
need it, and the regress subproject needed others. That may be a
difference between setting it for a static library and a DLL?
- add "__declspec(dllexport)" attribute before every function that
should be exported from libevent. There may be some methods of
exporting all symbols automatically:

Again, a DLL issue. :-)
I haven't checked if the lib really works, but
libevent.event_get_version() returns '1.3.99-trunk' which is a good
sign (though the version is wrong).
My main goal was to get the regress project to build and run its
tests... I didn't pursue it past that.
