Function Documentation

◆ rwSocketSelect() [1/2]

RWTValOrderedVector< RWSocketAttribute > rwSocketSelect	(	const RWTValOrderedVector< RWSocketAttribute > &	,
		double	timeout )

This function helps to perform asynchronous socket input/output operations. It waits for one of the conditions in the user-defined attributes vector to occur, and returns a vector of the conditions that have occurred. If any of the conditions has already occurred when the function is called, it returns immediately.

The attributes parameter is a vector of socket attributes. If empty, the program may sleep indefinitely. If one of the attributes refers to an invalid socket, a RWNetInvalidSocketError exception is thrown. If more than FD_SETSIZE attributes are in the attributes vector, an exception is thrown.

The timeout parameter is the maximum amount of time, in seconds, to wait for one of the conditions to become true. If the the value is negative, this function may block indefinitely. When using large timeout values, the fractional part may change due to rounding.

Note: The underlying select() call may limit the maximum amount of time it will wait to something less than timeout.; On stream sockets that are not connected, this function returns RWSocketAttribute::sock_attr_canwrite. This is a known issue with the underlying select() function.
