Re: integration with libevent

[Aris Adamantiadis <aris@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Nicolas,

I did some work on this recently and it's pending merging in libssh
master. It describes exactly what you want:
https://git.libssh.org/users/aris/libssh.git/commit/?h=connector&id=13c0395dd5dc6865412be6c151398f9b14788898

We're also very interested in working examples of integration with other
main loop systems such as libevent, and why not provide "official"
integration.

Thanks,

Aris
