Please read the man page again. Please note the long standing Unix tradition of returning -1 on failure. I doubt your code is handling that correctly. Yes, I caught that as well a bit ago and changed the code. I do appreciate the help, though -- I want to really understand this, and you've provided some good insight that helps me in those endeavors. Also, please note: Unless you like pain, please don't do the following: Those cases, while powerful, are also riddled with complications of use that are far beyond the scope of this e-mail thread. Trust me, you can write very efficient/fast code without using those cases. I only add one event at a time, though I do currently get more than 1. I don't want to add anymore noise to this list, so do you know of a good reference that describes kqueues really well (among other things i'm sure)? Perhaps some reference that describes /dev/poll as well on Linux, and (one can hope, because I want to test this as well) modwatch()? This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
