Re: Which IPCs are available on Windows that support select() function besides sockets?

I don't know if windows has them, but if it has, you could use unix domain sockets (or any socket namespace other than ip).

You can also use interpreted threads, then you don't have to know what the underlying ipc mechanism is.

sorry. Unix domain sockets are only useful on Unix. Also, thread support has had a history of being rather delicate. Maybe it'll be ok, but you want to tread awful carefully.	[reply]
