I really wanted to talk about AIO. Guess I have to get spanked and treated as a newbie for a while. I do believe I have adressed the TOFU thing and that other thing that is too loon to remember. Now, has anybody else thought about this, got some historical info, etc? Anybody else interested in it?

LOL, great typo there. The blanking people's addresses thing you've got right, but only half the TOFU thing - you've stopped the TO, but you're still doing the FUll quote of the entire message you're replying to without any trimming, including all those useless trailers etc. Now, has anybody else thought about this, got some historical info, etc? Anybody else interested in it? Should be fairly straightforward to implement, as windows I/O functions support asynchronous operations (called overlapped in msdn technology). You shouldn't need to modify anything except the cygwin dll sources to add the functions. See http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.programming.html#faq.programming.building-cygwin for some guidelines on how to build the cygwin dll from source. When adding new functions to the DLL, you also need to list them in the cygwin.din file - that defines which functions get exported and which don't. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

OK...learning. ;-[) My reason for asking these questions is because some of the digging I did suggested there were other things not yet implemented that would make it near impossible to do this (something about pthreads). What I am hearing now is that this not the case (anymore). I will look at the links you provided.
