I see that that EventingBasicConsumer is still marked experimental.<br>
Is that true or is it safe to use for examples in our book?<br>

It is probably safe to use.<div class="im"><br>

We're trying to find an equivalent to the event loop in Pika that<br>
allows multiple consumption loops to be active non-blocking at the<br>

EventingBasicConsumer is blocking, i.e. it invokes the event handlers in the connection thread.<br>
<br>
Can you post the pika code you want to emulate?<br>
