I'm wanting to set the SO_RCVTIMEO and SO_SNDTIMEO options on a socket from Haskell. socket(7) say that these take a struct timeval ad a parameter. (Other options, such as SO_LONGER, also could have this problem.)
In Haskell, we see: setSocketOption :: Socket -> SocketOption -> Int -> IO () Now, there are SocketOption constructors (RecvTimeOut and SendTimeOut) for what I want. But there is no way to give it a proper timeval (and yes, I checked the source.) setSocketOption definately wants an Int, and is passing the length of the Int to setsockopt(2) as well, so it appears to me that there is absolutely no way to correctly specify SO_RCVTIMEO or SO_SNDTIMEO through Haskell's socket layer. Is that correct? If so, how can we fix it? -- John _______________________________________________ Haskell mailing list Haskell@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell
