Hm. If there's nothing hideously complex in the source buffer (that is, nothing added with evbuffer_add_file), you could try an appropriate combination of evbuffer_peek and evbuffer_add_reference. Other than that, I'm not thinking of much. I'd love to get a better API for this in 2.1, if anybody wants to write one. -- Nick *********************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to majord...@freehaven.net with unsubscribe libevent-users in the body.
