OK, I see that, but now, we are stuffing everything into a timeval struct. Does that make sense? Shouldn't we just use time_t? I realize we need the timeval struct for select() in pqWaitTimed, but we are making a copy of the timeval we pass in anyway. Seems it would be easier just making it a time_t. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
