I'm using NetLibSelect to block while waiting for input on either a
network socket or stdin (eg penDown etc). I'm passing a timeout value of
SysTicksPerSecond() - so it should timeout after 1 second... but it
doesn't... :-(
Any ideas? Here's a code snippet...
NetFDSetType rFDs, wFDs, eFDs;
SWord numFDs;
Word MaxRefNum = sysFileDescStdIn;
Word timeOut = SysTicksPerSecond();
netFDZero( &rFDs );
netFDZero( &wFDs );
netFDZero( &eFDs );
netFDSet( sysFileDescStdIn, &rFDs );
netFDSet( mySocketRef, &rFDs );
if ( mySocket > maxRefNum )
maxRefNum = mySocket;
numFDs = NetLibSelect( myNetRefNum, maxRefNum + 1, &rFDs, &wFDs, &eFDs,
timeOut, &mtNetError );
if ( numFDs == 0 ) // timout has occured
{
// Do something...
}
It never seems to timeout, so the 'if' test never evaluates to true...
also it only *seems* to respond to user events the first time round... ie
network events on the socket don't cause NetLibSelect to return... after
an initial whack on the screen with my stylus it will then start
responding to incoming network events on the socket...
My brain hurts... :-(
