C++ unit tests won't run on Windows
-----------------------------------
Key: QPID-1765
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-1765
Project: Qpid
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 0.5
Environment: Windows, Visual Studio 2008
Reporter: Steve Huston
The C++ unit_tests test suite won't run correctly on Windows. The main issue is
that the SocketProxy class, used as a relay between client and broker that can
be programmed to drop data or close a connection at an inopportune time, uses
the Poller class in a way that's incompatible with the Windows IocpPoller.
The Poller class is used to react to events on the sockets being used, but the
SocketProxy class then expects to perform the needed send/recv operations
directly on the Socket classes. However, the Windows Poller class reacts to I/O
completions, not possibilities, so it's not compatible with the approach taken
by SocketProxy.
I tried replacing this with AsynchIO use... too messy and leaky.
I have an approach working that uses select() instead of the Poller. It's
portable, even if a bit trickier to use correctly than Poller. Patch
forthcoming.
