accept :: Socket -> IO (Handle, HostName, PortNumber)
Unfortunately, this is a blocking function, which means that the whole program blocks when it is waiting for a connection. [..] Ideally, I would like to integrate this with the function "hSelect" from the Select module.
man 2 accept on my Linux says: In order to be notified of incoming connections on a socket, you can use select(2) or poll(2). A readable event will be delivered when a new connection is attempted and you may then call accept to get a socket for that con- nection. So I imagine if you passed the socket as the first arg to Select.hSelect, you'd get what you want. SocketPrim.socketToHandle claims to do the required conversion. disclaimer: I haven't tried this. --KW 8-) -- Keith Wansbrough <kw217@cl.cam.ac.uk> http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/users/kw217/ Cambridge University Computer Laboratory.
