Actually I think it's a C error. Check out the documentation for event_pending(): /* @return true if the event is pending on any of the events in 'what', (that is to say, it has been added), or 0 if the event is not added. */ Note that it says "@return true"; it doesn't say "@return 1". In C, any nonzero integer is true. The documentation should probably be more clear that what it actually returns its a bitfield of which flags are set, anded with its "events" argument. yrs, -- Nick *********************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to majord...@freehaven.net with unsubscribe libevent-users in the body.
