Nice. The socket of Delphi and Synapse implements WaitForData: function TWinSocketStream.WaitForData(Timeout: Longint): Boolean; var FDSet: TFDSet; TimeVal: TTimeVal; begin TimeVal.tv_sec := Timeout div 1000; TimeVal.tv_usec := (Timeout mod 1000) * 1000; FD_ZERO(FDSet); FD_SET(FSocket.SocketHandle, FDSet); Result := select(0, @FDSet, nil, nil, @TimeVal) > 0; end; I do not know where it would be used, it's just an observation hehe... -- Silvio Clécio My public projects - github.com/silvioprog
