Well, that's what the whole idea is about. FileDescriptor class whould
save HANDLE value internally in fh member (see above examples). On the
other hand, existing calls to write/read in squid code won't e broken.

Looks like I didn't catch your way of thinking about virtualized
interface between Squid and the OS. By the way, do you concern only NT
port or HEAD?

The target is to have only one source tree, no more a separate Windows source tree.

There are still some fundamental steps to do for this goal:

- IPC virtualized support common to Windows and *nix OSes, already partially done from Robert Collins in the current nt-3_0 branch - Windows native socket supports and Squid FD concept virtualization, this all to be done.

I thing that 3.0 release is too near for the second step (with the current development resources), but the first could be done in time for 3.0.
For the second step, the target should be the 3.1 release.

Regards

Guido
