Nick, Patrick, et all,
Yes, thank you! This is exactly what I wanted to know. Trond Norby has
given me a Launchpad repo of libmemcached that uses select to implement
poll that I'll be testing on Windows.
I've been quite pleased at how good at how well libevent compiles on
Windows using mingw
As Nick said, the libevent source itself is a great example of abstracting
poll() functionality on multiple platforms, using the locally optimized
methods of epoll, kqueue, etc depending on the operating system. This is
primarily designed for high-performance network daemons (and sometimes
clients)

Hi there all!
I'm working on trying to port libmemcached to Windows. It is not an easy
task! I've just found that libmemcached uses poll() and this is a bit of
a road-block! What do you guys do to get cross-platform support? How do
you transparently use poll() or other mechanisms to provide th
