Is libcurl event based?

Hi,

I am writing a map viewer application using C++. The application will issue WMS requests and receive JPG files.

Is there a way to organize the libcurl part to be event-based and non-blocking? I don't see event in the documentation. Progress is not event, right? WriteFunction is the same as event?

What is the best way to approach the design? The Easy Interface? The Multi Interface? Thread? Or Persistent? The application, upon user mouse move or zoom, will issue requests to server and redraw the received jpeg on screen.

The application need to be professional grade.

Thanks.
