The first > is to call closesocket() from another thread. Cygwin doesn't seem to export a wrapper for closesocket(). How can I access that function? Can I call it from a signal handler function? I tried calling close() on the socket that recv() is reading, from a signal handler, but that doesn't seem to unblock the recv(). Actually, I get a STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION when I try that. -- Fred Yankowski fred@OntoSys.com tel: +1.630.879.1312 Principal Consultant www.OntoSys.com fax: +1.630.879.1370 OntoSys, Inc 38W242 Deerpath Rd, Batavia, IL 60510, USA -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
