May I ask what that bug was, Vathix? There's been a strange one lingering in this area within Mango for some time, and I wonder if it might be somehow related?

O_NONBLOCK was set to 0x4000 instead of octal 04000; a couple other constants were wrong that I think you fixed in Mango; SocketSet wasn't managing the sockets correctly; first parameter to C select() wasn't correct.
I'm surprised it even worked on linux ;)

Thank you! While we're on the subject, I'd really like to move Mango onto your standard release. But there's some subtleties involved. Can we compare notes (perhaps offline?) to see if that might work out?

Not sure what you mean. Do you mean you want to update Mango so that it includes the socket updates?

How about IRC? I updated the wiki, http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?IRC

If you guys get a chance, take a look at Mango's version.  There are two unittest blocks that are outside of the classes they're testing.  When building with Derek's 'Build' tool, that has -unittest on by default, the tests fail.  I moved them inside the classes and got the project to compile.

The O_NONBLOCK thing may be the next problem I ran into before stopping, and I'll try to apply that and see if I get further, although I'm not sure if there are more fundamental differences in the Mango version and the up-to-date one.

Thanks,
BA
