The easiest thing to do here is to use the event_active() call to make the event active now. But it doesn't do quite what you asked for: the callback will be run later in the current iteration of the loop, not in the next iteration. If it needs to be in the next iteration, I can't offhand think of a better way than adding an event with a 0 callback. yrs, -- Nick _______________________________________________ Libevent-users mailing list Libevent-users@monkey.org http://monkeymail.org/mailman/listinfo/libevent-users
