[Libevent-users] Shutting down the echo server

[Ben Short]

Hi,

I've used the echo server example to implement my own server. I call
the event_base_dispatch in a new thread.

Is there anyway to do an orderly shutdown of the event dispatcher?

I've tried event_base_loopbreak which returns 0 but the event_base_dispatch
doesn't return.

I'm using libevent 2.0.19.
