Nothing whatsoever as far as I can tell; Libevent never defined it or looked for it as far as I can tell. Grep for it in the source for libevent 1.4.12-stable, and it shouldn't be there. In fact, AFAICT, no version of Libevent in the source repository has ever contained the string "EV_PRI" : [279]% git log -p origin/master | grep EV_PRI [280]% git log -p origin/patches-1.4 | grep EV_PRI [281]% git log -p origin/patches-1.3 | grep EV_PRI [282]% git log -p origin/patches-1.2 | grep EV_PRI [283]% git log -p origin/patches-1.1 | grep EV_PRI [284]% So if there was a version that declared or inspected EV_PRI, it doesn't seem to be an ancestor of any current version of Libevent that I can find. Were you maybe using some forked version of 1.4.12-stable? I also did a Google codesearch for EV_PRI, using ' EV_PRI[^A-Z_] case:yes ' as my query, and got no hits. -- Nick *********************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to majord...@freehaven.net with unsubscribe libevent-users in the body.
