Please STOP replying to messages when you want to create a new thread. This causes problems for search engines and humans who use threading as a means to organize related messages as a whole discussion in their email software. When you are creating a new topic make sure to send a new email, or at the very least make sure that you remove any RFC822 headers in your message that link it to previous posts. (This is not possible in many email programs, so the safe method is to always send a new email when starting a new topic!)

Yes, and you must be using non-blocking. This is a known deficiency in the libssh2 API that is being worked on. > Also what if these bytes coming in from the socket are not for a > channel at all?

By reading from any channel the library will try to read from the socket associated with the session that the channel belongs to. If there's data to be read then it ends up on the right channel. > Does this just happen behind the scenes when polling each channel? If by polling you mean _channel_read() then yes. > What if there are no channels? Then there won't be much data. This case isn't covered at all by the current API. It's an important point to keep in mind for the future improvements. //Peter _______________________________________________ libssh2-devel http://cool.haxx.se/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/libssh2-devel
