Hi, and sorry about the long delay. I'm trying to clear my long backlog of evhttp-related stuff. I'm still trying to feel my way around the evhttp code, but it looks to me, from reading evhttp_connection_fail, that your callback will get invoked with a request of NULL if the connection fails before it gets to attempt any requests. Sadly, this doesn't seem to be well-documented. This would explain, though, why you're seeing this error: you need to check to make sure that the request isn't NULL before you go and try to get its buffers, and if it's NULL, you've got to treat it as a connection error. No, I don't think this is a great interface either. Some time in 2.1 it would probably make sense to see how we can improve this stuff in a backward- compatible way, if it's as weird as it seems to be to me now. yrs, -- Nick *********************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to majord...@freehaven.net with unsubscribe libevent-users in the body.
