I posted this to comm-dev-forum last week but there's not a lot of activity
over there. I still haven't gotten the netSocketOptSockNotice to work
properly. I believe I am doing everything properly, using the
NetSocketNoticeType structure with NetLibSocketOptionSet(), but I can't help
but think it is some type of struct packing issue. Though I have tried to
squirm the struct and size to make it work, but haven't had success.
Has anyone worked with socket notices yet? SDK-5 added this stuff in
NetMgr.h which I presume only works for OS 5 and beyond. For some reason I
am always getting sysErrParamErr from the NetLibSocketOptionSet() within the
simulator, which is the only OS 5 platform I have for use.
NetSocketNoticeType nsnt;
/* set activity callback */
MemSet(&nsnt, sizeof(nsnt), 0);
nsnt.type = netSocketNoticeCallback;
nsnt.condition = netSocketNoticeTCPReceive;
nsnt.notice.callback.callbackP = my_socket_callback;
nsnt.notice.callback.userDataP = NULL;
if (NetLibSocketOptionSet(AppNetRefnum, sock, netSocketOptLevelSocket,
netSocketOptSockNotice, &nsnt, sizeof(nsnt), AppNetTimeout, &errno))
ShowErrorMsg(ErrToString(errno));
Err my_socket_callback(void *userDataP, UInt16 socketRef, UInt32 condition)
{
return 0;
}
I would like to use these nifty socket features for background networking,
rather than the hideous method of using a periodic timer to poll the sockets.
