RE: RPG IV - Sockets Programming (sleep procedure)

[Tim McCarthy <timm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Read with sleeps? Ooh that's ugly. If you don't want to block on your
reads why not check for a wouldblock condition and then issue a select
with a timer. You can set this to micro seconds but my guess is that
with this method your problem goes away.
