<p>Registers a default event implementation based on the poll() system call. This is a generic implementation that can be used by any client application which does not have a need to integrate with an external event loop impl.</p>
<p>For proper event handling, it is important that the event implementation is registered before a connection to the Hypervisor is opened.</p>
<p>Once registered, the application has to invoke <a href="libvirt-libvirt-event.html#virEventRunDefaultImpl">virEventRunDefaultImpl</a>() in a loop to process events. Failure to do so may result in connections being closed unexpectedly as a result of keepalive timeout. The default event loop fully supports handle and timeout events, but only wakes up on events registered by libvirt API calls such as <a href="libvirt-libvirt-event.html#virEventAddHandle">virEventAddHandle</a>() or <a href="libvirt-libvirt-domain.html#virConnectDomainEventRegisterAny">virConnectDomainEventRegisterAny</a>().</p>

<p>Registers an event implementation, to allow integration with an external event loop. Applications would use this to integrate with the libglib2 event loop, or libevent or the QT event loop.</p>
<p>For proper event handling, it is important that the event implementation is registered before a connection to the Hypervisor is opened.</p>
<p>Use of the <a href="libvirt-libvirt-event.html#virEventAddHandle">virEventAddHandle</a>() and similar APIs require that the corresponding handler is registered. Use of the <a href="libvirt-libvirt-domain.html#virConnectDomainEventRegisterAny">virConnectDomainEventRegisterAny</a>() and similar APIs requires that the three timeout handlers are registered. Likewise, the three timeout handlers must be registered if the remote server has been configured to send keepalive messages, or if the client intends to call <a href="libvirt-libvirt-host.html#virConnectSetKeepAlive">virConnectSetKeepAlive</a>(), to avoid either side from unexpectedly closing the connection due to inactivity.</p>
<p>If an application does not need to integrate with an existing event loop implementation, then the <a href="libvirt-libvirt-event.html#virEventRegisterDefaultImpl">virEventRegisterDefaultImpl</a>() method can be used to setup the generic libvirt implementation.</p>
<p>Once registered, the event loop implementation cannot be changed, and must be run continuously. Note that callbacks may remain registered for a short time even after calling <a href="libvirt-libvirt-host.html#virConnectClose">virConnectClose</a> on all open connections, so it is not safe to stop running the event loop immediately after closing the connection.</p>
