You should continue using select() then. gnutls_check_pending() checks for data in the gnutls_session_t buffers, not in the network buffers. You should use it to complement select() (i.e., call select() if gnutls_record_check_pending() returned zero). This is what gnutls-cli does. > hence, my reasoning for the need to sleep. You don't need it. Use select() instead. > gnutls_record_recv() blocks if it has no data, yes?? If your socket is set to block it will block. regards, Nikos _______________________________________________ Help-gnutls mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnutls
