NAME top
sd_event_source_get_event - Retrieve the event loop of an event
source
SYNOPSIS top
**#include <systemd/sd-event.h>**
**sd_event* sd_event_source_get_event(sd_event_source ***_source_**);**
DESCRIPTION top
**sd_event_source_get_event()** may be used to retrieve the event loop
object the event source object specified as _source_ is associated
with. The event loop object is specified when creating an event
source object with calls such as [sd_event_add_io(3)](../man3/sd%5Fevent%5Fadd%5Fio.3.html) or
[sd_event_add_time(3)](../man3/sd%5Fevent%5Fadd%5Ftime.3.html).
RETURN VALUE top
On success, **sd_event_source_get_event()** returns the associated
event loop object. On failure, it returns **NULL**.
NOTES top
Functions described here are available as a shared library, which
can be compiled against and linked to with the
**libsystemd pkg-config**(1) file.
The code described here uses [getenv(3)](../man3/getenv.3.html), which is declared to be
not multi-thread-safe. This means that the code calling the
functions described here must not call [setenv(3)](../man3/setenv.3.html) from a parallel
thread. It is recommended to only do calls to **setenv()** from an
early phase of the program when no other threads have been
started.
HISTORY top
**sd_event_source_get_event()** was added in version 229.
