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 call the read callback.
48  When writing is enabled, the bufferevent will try to write data onto its
49  file descriptor when the output buffer has enough data, and call the write
50  callback 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>
