3. AFAIK (sorry, I feel acronym-ly today ;), there is no difference in
select between blocking and non-blocking mode. The difference is in the
recv (again, assuming that you use TCP as protocol, that is AF_INET,
SOCK_STREAM), which in the blocking case would wait to receive all the
bytes that you requested,
No, in blocking mode it will wait to receive _some_ data (1 or
more bytes). The "requested" amount is strictly an upper
limit: recv won't return more than the requested number of
bytes, but it might return less.
Hi Grant,
I don't think you read Francesco's message carefully enough. :)
Ah, no, it was I who didn't read carefully enough. Nevermind.
