Terry,

I tend to use the select() sockets API and set the timeout to the desired
time. Although, I believe sockets will block if you set the wait time to
anything less than 500 milliseconds, using select().

Subject: RPG IV - Sockets Programming (sleep procedure)

Have written an interface program using RPG IV incorporating several
prototypes/procedures from the QC2LE binding directory.  This program uses
non-blocked accept and read statements.  In order to provide a delay time
between reads, I used the sleep proc with a 1 second wait time.  Is there
any way to reduce this time to .1 or .01 second?  The parameter field for
the sleep proc is defined as 10U 0, which I believe will not allow for a
decimal.

Appreciate any help.
