Dear Daniel,
I seem to have problems sending mail directly to your address ...
You have a "g" on the end instead of a "k" . diwalker@earthlink.net (not earthling) .
No problem .. Although, Something is better than nothing .. I have an
application that uses this function, and I wanted that application to work .. Even though my implementation is not complete, since it's now in the main wine source it can mature .. By withholding your implementation your not doing anyone any favors ..
Yeah, that was my very first wine patch ever, and I didn't understand the rules of wine-devel & wine-patches by that time. Afterwards I forgot about it, concentrating on overlapped IO, and was reminded of it by your patch.
I hope you submit it .. I think it was more than just WSAAccept() ..
It is good to see that we seem to be in basic agreement, though. After all, it will probably happen very rarely that an app rejects or even defers clients.
I would guess that rejection might be common, but I can't see many apps taking advantage of defer ..
Btw: will you be working on more Winsock stuff in the near future? If yes, I guess we should try to coordinate our efforts somehow.
I don't have anything planned, right now ..
