Hello, about your new suggestion:
1) like I said, now I can open the fd in: /proc/self/fd/ e.g.: hFile = Open "/proc/self/fd/20" For read watch some fd (like 3,4,5,6, 16 and 20) gives data, others not. So, I don't understand what's the use of the trick. 2) how have I to use it ? maybe: hFile = Open "/proc/self/fd/.1" For read watch 3) I use Gambas 3, where can I download the revision #4134 ? Thanks Paolo P.S.: Benoît ! Is not it better if you add that possibility to personalize the message loop ??? > I may have a solution for you. > > In revision #4134, I added a trick for opening existing > file descriptors, so > that you can watch them. > > The trick is the following: use ".XXX" as file name, where > XXX is the file > descriptor number. > > This trick only works if: > - You use the FOR READ/WRITE syntax. > - You don't use FOR CREATE/APPEND. > - XXX is a valid file descriptor. > - XXX has been opened for reading if you use FOR READ, and > for writing if you > use FOR WRITE. > > You can close the file, it will not close the file > descriptor.
