Hi
Can anyone explain why gwthread is using the poll function to sleep (using
milliseconds as timeout), and not maybe the select function (using microseconds
as timeout)?
We have the requirement to be able to sleep for less than a millisecond, which
the current gwthread_sleep can't provide.
Below is a patch to do just that, using the select function.
I have tested it, so if anyone has any comments, please let me hear them.
The diff is from our own SVN repository, but as far as I know, it is up-to-date
with the cvs.
Hi Werner,
I'm +0 for applying the patch to CVS, since it's an additive feature and doesn't
hurt any existing core bricks of the gwlib.
The calls should be POSIX.1 compliant and portable hence I guess.
Werner, could you do me a favor and resend the patch in a single file as mail
attachment please. This ensures we don't get truncated end of line chars etc,
which is a mess to correct by hand while patching ;)
And thanks a lot for contributing.
Stipe
