 /** @file event2/thread.h
 
   Functions for multi-threaded applications using Libevent.
 
   When using a multi-threaded application in which multiple threads
   add and delete events from a single event base, Libevent needs to
   lock its data structures.
 
   Like the memory-management function hooks, all of the threading functions
   _must_ be set up before an event_base is created if you want the base to
   use them.
 
   Most programs will either be using Windows threads or Posix threads.  You
   can configure Libevent to use one of these event_use_windows_threads() or
   event_use_pthreads() respectively.  If you're using another threading
   library, you'll need to configure threading functions manually using
   evthread_set_lock_callbacks() and evthread_set_condition_callbacks().
