nonblocking I/O under Windows

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

hello all, I have been working on a port of a program for quite some time now. Now, that i have gotten to the roots of it all, I am still stuck with one problem. How can I set sockets to nonblocking? I would normally use Fcntl, but this is for Windows, and Fcntl is hardly complete under Win32. Please help me! I will bark 500 times for the first person who will help me.

my $japh = "overused";

Maybe How do I implement non-blocking IO on Win32? might help you. Btw: Would you mind sending me a mp3 or the like with the barkings? :-) Best regards, perl -le "s==F=e=>y~\martinF~stronat~=>s~[^\w]~~g=>chop,print"	[reply]
