I prefer woe32_fd_select, but you're writing it and I'm not that picky. :) >Wrapping the Windows Socket API to integrate sockets into the CRT number >space might work but I have no idea just how much wrapping must be done. > > Once you try to merge the socket and fd namespace on Windows, the whole point is that you have to provide implementations for *every* POSIX function that accesses an fd (every function you wish to use anyhow) that knows how to do the switching between the Windows socket and fd API. It seems much simpler to use the socket_* access variants just for sockets, at least when we are talking about writing all the code. If someone else wrote this POSIX layer for Windows, I would be happy to use it to simplify my code, barring other problems. :) Regards, Derek -- Derek R.
