- To be grossly simplistic: not really; not yet. Try WinVN for an
- alternate look at the news; pray for the day someone smashes the two
- of them together and comes up with something that begins to approach
- the functionality and power of one of the UNIX-based command-line
- newsreaders.

- Subject: Curious behaviour from winsock
-
- I wonder how many have asked this question before, or alternatively, how many
- will tell me how obvious my problem is?
-
- When using non blocking sockets with lingering enabled (l_onoff=1,
- l_linger!=0), I call closesocket and get WSAEWOULDBLOCK back. Now great, I
- expected that, but where is my notification message when it does close?? Or
- actually, when will it close? - because according to my network monitor app
- the socket is still connected.
-
- I have confirmed that it is not my code - although could easily be my
- reasoning, by using WSATest (a wonderful help).
-
- Basically I have switched to abrubt disconnectes unless someone can point out
- the err of my ways.
-
- I have tried this with Distinct TCP/IP and DEC Pathworks 4.1 and Pathworks 5.0
- beta.
-
- Thanks for any help. I dont now how long I have gone without seeing that this
- was happening.
