One popular technique for network I/O is to watch the network socket for incoming data, then call read() when you know there is something to be read. The poll() and select() functions are the traditional ways of doing this. libevent and libev are probably more convenient, if you want to support multiple-platforms. Or if you're developing a glib application you can use GIOChannels. -Mark _______________________________________________ Support mailing list Support@pidgin.im http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support You can unsubscribe from the list's website above.
