Description
Hello All,
I see that libwebsockets-full doesn't enable libevent2 support by default see (https://github.com/openwrt/packages/blob/master/libs/libwebsockets/Makefile#L87). by adding the ( -DLWS_WITH_LIBEVENT=ON)
Do you think it would be beneficial to enable it by default in the config, there are many application relays on it out there and many of them use libevent as event loop?
Thanks,
