Subject: recv() blocking for non-blocking socket
Message-ID: <Pine.GSO.4.21.0109101130510.899-100000@wiehle.acorn-networks.com>

I've looked through the archive, and I found
some discussion about using accept() on non-blocking
sockets, but none on recv(). If someone could spot
any stupid errors in the following code, that would
be great.

  {
    int true = 1;
    if (ioctl(sock_handle, FIONBIO, &true) != 0) {
      if (errmsg!=NULL)
        sprintf(errmsg, "ioctl(): %s", strerror(errno));
      return GFAPI_ERR_FAIL;
    }
  }

I call recv after I do this and it blocks. I *think* I'm
doing the appropriate thing to make the socket non-blocking.
