What is libevent FOR MAC?

Libevent

Libevent is a super handy API that lets you run a callback function when something specific happens on a file descriptor or when a timeout kicks in. It’s great because it also supports callbacks from signals or regular timeouts.

What Does Libevent Do?

Basically, libevent is designed to step in for the event loop you usually find in event-driven network servers. All your app needs to do is call event_dispatch(), and then you can easily add or remove events without messing with the event loop itself!

Supported Mechanisms

This library has got your back when it comes to supporting various mechanisms like /dev/poll, kqueue(2), event ports, select(2), poll(2), and epoll(4). The cool thing is that its internal event system works totally independently of the exposed event API. So, if there’s an update to libevent, you can get new features without needing to redesign your whole application.

Why Choose Libevent?

The result? You get to develop portable applications and enjoy the most scalable event notification system available on an operating system. Plus, if you're working on multi-threaded apps, libevent fits right in!

Cross-Platform Compatibility

Libevent is a cross-platform library which means it should compile smoothly on Mac OS X, Linux, BSD, Solaris, and Windows. This makes it super versatile for developers who work across different systems.
