Not reliably. The same small integer might be both a valid file
descriptor and a socket, and there is no way for
g_io_channel_unix_new() to know which one you mean.
Use g_io_channel_win32

Can I just use g_io_channel_unix_new(socket) to create GIOChannel for
windows socket ?

Yep, and this then will in fact use the WSAEventSelect mechanism on
Windows. (In GLib >= 2.8)
Please note, though, tha

You can associate WSAEvents to your socket via WSAEventSelect and then
wait for the events to become signaled using WSAWaitForMultipleObjects.

Under Window you can use select(). For myself I've written for Win32 a

Hello,
I'm trying to write two-threaded program: one thread for GUI and the other
for network. The network thread needs to poll network socket and to receive
messages from the GUI thread (such as commands to send something to network
or to disconnect). I've used pipe for commands, so in the networ
