I'm looking at something that uses UDP directly, It's being built
from the ground up in Delphi and Lazarus for both Win-32 and Linux.
In Delphi I can control sockets directly by using "USES WinSock".
However Lazarus/FPC appears to have at least two libraries with
similar functionality, including winsock.pp and sockets.pp- which
should I be using?
sockets.pp. But this is very basic.
There are good and free networking libraries working under
linux/windows and delphi/lazarus. For example: synapse and indy.
Thanks. It's slightly tricky stuff that I've previously found I needed to do
direct onto winsock.
What I'm actually struggling with is select() and in particular finding where
to find pfdset/tfdset for its parameters. I can see these in winsock.pp but if
this isn't the preferred library where do I find them?
