Re: poll() support?

Hi,

Darwin appears to have poll() support according to the man page,
but there's no header file or stub in the library. Is it going to
be supported any time soon, or do we have to use select() instead?
Surely if the code is based on 4.4BSD, it ought to be trivial to
get working.

Thanks,
Jon.


No, we do not have poll() system call in the kernel. I do not think we plan to add that any time soon. You need to use select() [like you said, should be trivial to get that working :-)]
