 <title>About buffer event callbacks</title>
 <para>
  An object of
  <classname>EventBufferEvent</classname>
  class represents a
  <emphasis>buffer event</emphasis>
  . The asynchronous nature of I/O performed by Libevent implies that a
  socket(or other kind of file descriptor) is not always available. Event
  invokes corresponding callbacks when the resource becomes available for
  reading or writing, or when some event occurs(e.g. error, "end of line"
  etc.).
 </para>
 <para>
  Read and write callbacks should match the following prototype:
 </para>
