The entry points are evutil_getaddrinfo and evdns_getaddrinfo respectively.
There are fairly extensive unit tests.
I believe this code conforms to RFC3493 pretty closely, but there are
probably more issues. It should get tested on more platforms.
This code means we can dump the well-intentioned but weirdly-implemented
bufferevent_evdns and evutil_resolve code.
svn:r1537
This function, bufferevent_socket_connect_hostname() can either use
evdns to do the resolve, or use a new function (evutil_resolve) that
uses getaddrinfo or gethostbyname, like http.c does now.
This function is meant to eventually replace the hostname resolution mess in
http.c.
svn:r1496
Declare the previously private struct evhttp_bound_socket in
event2/http.h as an opaque struct.
Implement evhttp_bound_socket_get_fd, which returns the file descriptor
of an evhttp_bound_socket.
[Patch from David Reiss]
svn:r1421
This is a bit of an interface doozy, but it's really needed in order
to be able to document this stuff without apologizing it. This patch
does the following renamings:
evbuffercb -> bufferevent_data_cb
everrorcb -> bufferevent_event_cb
EVBUFFER_(READ,WRITE,...) -> BEV_EVENT_(...)
EVBUFFER_(INPUT,OUTPUT) -> bufferevent_get_(input,output)
All the old names are available in event2/bufferevent_compat.h
svn:r1283
Others may remain. I wasn't able to get gcc --std=c89 to build libevent
at all, so I don't know what compiler the original reporter is using here.
Note that this change requires us to disable the part of our rpc code
that uses variadic macros when using a non-gcc compiler. This is a
problem if we want our rpc api to be portable.
svn:r1231
This patch adds a new set of EVUTIL_IS* functions to replace use of
the ctypes is* functions in all cases where we care about characters'
interpretations in net ascii rather than in the locale. For example,
when we're working with DNS hostnames, we don't want to do the 0x20
hack on non-ascii characters, even if the host thinks they should be
isalpha.

a) this is 2009
b) niels and nick have been comaintainers for a while
c) saying "all rights reserved" when you then go on to explicitly
disclaim some rights is sheer cargo-cultism.
svn:r1065
Previously, we used inconsistent and incompletely ported ifdefs.
(We don't use these macros in platform-specific files like evpoll.c, since
they don't need to work on win32.)
