Hello,

It seems that sockets can't be made non-blocking in cygwin32 b17 under
winNT 4.0, is it just me or is it true ?

I have a program which makes an accept on a non blocking socket, on my
linux machine the accept exits with errno set to EWOULDBLOCK, on my NT
machine it just blocks until it receives a connection request.

If needed I can post the code, the socket is made non-blocking with a
fcntl(sockid,F_SETFL,O_NONBLOCK), so could it be that this fcntl
operation is not supported on cygwin32 ? The fcntl doesn't fail anyway.

I have not tried it under b18 yet.

Thanks for the help
