But we don't really care because we're in control of what gets stores
into errno after Winsock calls. So instead of:
errno = WSAGetLastError ();
windows_select and friends can go ahead and say:
errno = winsock_error_to_errno (WSAGetLastError ());
winsock_error_to_errno and esaily convert Winsock errors to errno
errors expected by the rest of Wget, adding support for the missing
ones such as ENOTCONN.

If we do this, we should probably remove those defines. They would no
longer be needed.

One difference is that your patch requires the use of special
GET_ERRNO and SET_ERRNO codes that I'm trying to avoid. Another is
that windows_strerror calls real strerror for everything except for
the few error codes which really are unavailable under Windows, such
as ENOTCONN. This should (I think) remove the need for the large
switch you have in get_winsock_error.

For close() to set errno, it would have to fail, and that should not
be possible in normal operation. (Unlike fclose, close cannot write
data, it should just tell kernel to get rid of the descriptor.) If
close really fails, then something is seriously wrong and we care
about the errno from close at least as much as we care about errno
from connect or bind. In practice it probably doesn't make sense to
care about close setting errno.

Okay by me.

Except you cannot make Winsock return X_ENOTCONN.
It returns WSAENOTCONN (def'ed to ENOTCONN in
mswindows.h). Winsock errors are in the range
WSABASEERR (1) to 11031 with some holes in
the range.

Which AFAICS is the pretty much the same as in my patch.
Another thing is that Wget could mask errnos for Unix
too. In connect.c:
...
{
CLOSE (sock);
sock = -1;
goto out;
}
out:
...
else
{
save_errno = errno;
if (!silent)
logprintf (LOG_VERBOSE, "failed: %s.\n", strerror (errno));
errno = save_errno;
}
The close() could possibly set errno too, but we want the errno
from bind() or connect() don't we?

How about:
#ifdef WINDOWS
# define select(a, b, c, d) windows_select (a, b, c, d)
#endif
windows_select can be a function defined in mswindows.c that calls
select, performs the necessary error-handling magic, and (easily)
returns a value. BTW errno should only be modified if _rc<0.

I believe it calls them in some places, and there it calls
mswindows_set_last_errno to fix up errno in case the callers inspect
it. This is similar to the strategy I'd like to use in Wget.

OK.

Note that we could always add a version of strerror that supports
those. For example:
/* mswindows.h */
enum { X_ERRBASE = 1, X_ENOTCONN = 10001, ... };
#ifndef ENOTCONN
# define ENOTCONN X_ENOTCONN
#endif
...
#define strerror(n) windows_strerror (n)
/* mswindows.c */
#undef strerror /* we want the real one here */
const char *
windows_strerror (int err)
{
/* Leave the standard ones to strerror. */
if (err < X_ERRBASE)
return strerror (err);
/* Handle the unsupported ones manually. */
switch (err)
{
case X_ENOTCONN:
return "Connection refused";
...
default:
abort ();
}
return NULL;
}
I know this looks like an unnecessary contortion at first, but Wget
*is* targeted to primarily support Unix-like OS'es, specifically GNU.
In this case I believe it makes sense to make the Windows-specific
code more complex to reduce the complexity in the code that assumes
Unix API's.

Yes.

Then all Winsock functions must be wrapped in such macro.
E.g (untested):
#define SOCK_SELECT(fd,rd,wr,ex,tv) ( \
int _rc = select (fd,rd,wr,ex,tv), \
(int)(WSAGetLastError() ? (errno = WSAGetLastError()) : (0)), \
_rc)
which could get messy; hard to return with a value from such a
macro.

XEmacs is probably using native Win functions (e.g CreateFile
instead of fopen), so it needs to map them to Unix errnos. Wget only
uses ANSI/Winsock functions, so only WS errors need attention.
Besides, on Windows there is no suiteable value for
e.g. ENOTCONN; we must use the value WSAENOTCONN.
So the XEmacs method wouldn't work.

OK. So the whole thing with errno is only necessary when dealing with
Winsock errors. For errors from, say, fopen it's fine to use errno?
There is another possible approach. We already #define read and write
to call Winsock stuff. We could add some more magic so that they and
other Winsock invocations automatically set errno to last error value,
translating Windows errors to errno errors. XEmacs has code that
seems to support that kind of translation (Winsock errors might need
to be handled separately, but they could be added) -- please take a
look:
struct errentry {
unsigned long oscode; /* Win32 error */
int errnocode; /* unix errno */
};
