+libev is a high-performance event loop/event model with lots of features.
It is modelled (very losely) after libevent
(http://monkey.org/~provos/libevent/) and the Event perl module, but aims
- detects time jumps and adjusts timers
(works for both forward and backward time jumps and also for absolute timers).
-- can correctly remove timers while executing callbacks
- (libevent doesn't handle this reliably and can crash).
-
- race-free signal processing
(libevent may delay processing signals till after the next event).
- a event.h compatibility header exists, and can be used to run a wide
range of libevent programs unchanged (such as evdns.c).
+- win32 compatibility for the core parts.
+
+- the event core library (ev and event layer) compiles and works both as
+ C and C++.

whats missing?
- evbuffer, evhttp, bufferevent are missing.
