31 @file event2/bufferevent.h
32
33 Functions for buffering data for network sending or receiving. Bufferevents
34 are higher level than evbuffers: each has an underlying evbuffer for reading
35 and one for writing, and callbacks that are invoked under certain
36 circumstances.
37
38 A bufferevent provides input and output buffers that get filled and
39 drained automatically. The user of a bufferevent no longer deals
40 directly with the I/O, but instead is reading from input and writing
41 to output buffers.
42
43 Once initialized, the bufferevent structure can be used repeatedly
44 with bufferevent_enable() and bufferevent_disable().
45
46 When reading is enabled, the bufferevent will try to read from the
47 file descriptor onto its input buffer, and and call the read callback.
48 When writing is enabled, the bufferevent will try to write data onto its
49 file descriptor when writing is enabled, and call the write callback
50 when the output buffer is sufficiently drained.
51
52 Bufferevents come in several flavors, including:
53
54 <dl>
55 <dt>Socket-based bufferevents</dt>
56 <dd>A bufferevent that reads and writes data onto a network
57 socket. Created with bufferevent_socket_new().</dd>
58
59 <dt>Paired bufferevents</dt>
60 <dd>A pair of bufferevents that send and receive data to one
61 another without touching the network. Created with
62 bufferevent_pair_new().</dd>
63
64 <dt>Filtering bufferevents</dt>
65 <dd>A bufferevent that transforms data, and sends or receives it
66 over another underlying bufferevent. Created with
67 bufferevent_filter_new().</dd>
68
69 <dt>SSL-backed bufferevents</dt>
70 <dd>A bufferevent that uses the openssl library to send and
71 receive data over an encrypted connection. Created with
72 bufferevent_openssl_socket_new() or
73 bufferevent_openssl_filter_new().</dd>
