Hi all,
I'm trying to use cURL multi on Windows Mobile.
Both easy and multi work well in blocking mode.
I'm trying to create a worker thread that can handle multiple transfers, and
receive commends (like quit) from other threads.
I've started with portions of the fopen.c sample that comes with curl, which
uses curl_multi_fdset, select, and then curl_multi_perform.
I figured I need to replace the curl_multi_fdset+select with a
WaitForMultipleObjects, and use WSAEventSelect to associate the socket with an
event.
I thought I need to use curl_multi_setopt with CURLMOPT_SOCKETFUNCTION and
maybe also with CURLMOPT_TIMERFUNCTION, the first of which (according to my
understanding should give me a socket handle after the socket is created so
that I can call WSAEventSelect).
I soon discovered that the CURLMOPT_SOCKETFUNCTION callback isn't called at all
when using curl_multi_perform, and searching in the samples I saw the only
samples that use this callback are using curl_multi_socket_all instead (a
deprecated function).
I've tried using curl_multi_socket_all instead of curl_multi_perform, and my
callback started to happen, but later when I do WaitForMultipleObjects or
WSAWaitForMultipleEvents it never goes out from that call.
Btw, the call to WSAEventSelect returned with success.
So my questions are:
What am I doing wrong?
Did anyone ever managed to use curl multi with WSAEventSelect and
WaitForMultipleObjects?
Is there a difference approach that I should use to get a thread that handles
multiple connections, and receives signals from other threads (on Windows)?
If there a sample code that can show me how to do this?
Thanks.
Oran.
