Hi,
Is there a way to quickly check if data is available
for read in a tcp socket without blocking the program?
If there is one, we could use that instead of the overly
complex signal handling method that sometimes also results
in process hangs, which I reported in my previous mail.
Yes, select and poll could be used to do such a check, but
it looks to me that they are not quick. Or am I wrong in this?
Could someone please help me out here?
thanks a lot,
Ivan
