in thread IO::Socket::INET -- jettero verses non-blocking in windows

Wow, thanks.

I think I'll be giving up shortly. This is way too hard for me.

It's 4 lines of code in Teh Lunix. I wonder why it's so hard to do in windows. Here's hoping Wx::Socket does what I need.

I had this application toally done and working great before I even knew there was a Wx::Socket. I elected to use Wx because it's portable... by my IO::Socket wasn't portable.

Anyway,

Thanks a ton for all your help. It was very interesting.

    If you don't mind spawning a blocking reader to block and read data before it transmits to a non blocking process using select to listen to what the blocked one has to say.......

    There are some things that are not easy on win32.

    cheers
