Arguments

• event - Valid event resource.

Description

event_add() schedules the execution of the event when the event specified in event_set() occurs or in at least the time specified by the timeout argument. If timeout was not specified, not timeout is set. The event must be already initalized by event_set() and event_base_set() functions. If the event already has a timeout set, it is replaced by the new one.

event_add() returns TRUE on success or FALSE on error.
