Re: [fpc-pascal] Darwin i386 socket polling

> Windows supports epoll?

No, windows doesn't offer polling socket mechanisms.  They send
messages to windows with the socket number - it's event driven.
Kernel polling is different, but I assumed that Darwin would support
it via e-Poll.  I searched and found a few references to
kQueue/kEvent.

Thanks for the help guys.

I'll check the iNet code to see the supporting units.  Anyone have a
write-up on the website for sockets and the different nuances for each
of the major oses?
