.TH "deprecated" 3 "Tue Jan 31 2017" "libevent" \" -*- nroff -*- .ad l .nh .SH NAME deprecated \- Deprecated List .IP "\fBGlobal \fBevbuffer_readline\fP (struct evbuffer *buffer)\fP" 1c This function is deprecated because its behavior is not correct for almost any protocol, and also because it's wholly subsumed by \fBevbuffer_readln()\fP\&. .IP "\fBGlobal \fBevbuffer_setcb\fP (struct evbuffer *buffer, evbuffer_cb cb, void *cbarg)\fP" 1c This function is deprecated because it clears all previous callbacks set on the evbuffer, which can cause confusing behavior if multiple parts of the code all want to add their own callbacks on a buffer\&. Instead, use \fBevbuffer_add()\fP, evbuffer_del(), and evbuffer_setflags() to manage your own evbuffer callbacks without interfering with callbacks set by others\&. .IP "\fBGlobal \fBevdns_add_server_port\fP (evutil_socket_t socket, int flags, evdns_request_callback_fn_type callback, void *user_data)\fP" 1c This function is deprecated because it does not allow the caller to specify which even_base it uses\&. The recommended function is \fBevdns_add_server_port_with_base()\fP\&. .IP "\fBGlobal \fBevdns_clear_nameservers_and_suspend\fP (void)\fP" 1c This function is deprecated because it does not allow the caller to specify which evdns_base it applies to\&.

The recommended function is \fBevdns_base_resolve_reverse_ipv6()\fP\&. .IP "\fBGlobal \fBevdns_resume\fP (void)\fP" 1c This function is deprecated because it does not allow the caller to specify which evdns_base it applies to\&.

The replacement is \fBevent_base_dispatch()\fP\&. .IP "\fBGlobal \fBevent_get_method\fP (void)\fP" 1c This function is obsolete, and has been replaced by \fBevent_base_get_method()\fP\&. Its use is deprecated because it relies on the 'current' base configured by \fBevent_init()\fP\&. .IP "\fBGlobal \fBevent_init\fP (void)\fP" 1c This function is deprecated because it replaces the 'current' \fBevent_base\fP, and is totally unsafe for multithreaded use\&. The replacement is \fBevent_base_new()\fP\&. .IP "\fBGlobal \fBevent_loop\fP (int)\fP" 1c This function is deprecated because it uses the event base from the last call to event_init, and is therefore not safe for multithreaded use\&.
