Async Socket: how to do in Win 32 console application?

[sharmasourabh54]

Hello everyone,

I want to make a Win32 console application in VC++ for client -server using sockets. I want to use Asynchronous sockets...


(1)I don't want to make MFC application (i.e. I don't want to use CAyncsocket support in MFC).

(2)I don't want to make it a Win32 windows application(i.e. I don't want to use WSAAsysnselect etc.).

Can anyone kindly suggest me whether it is possible or not and if yes, please guide me in this regard..

Thank You
Sourabh

WSAEventSelect() is the function four you both.

Pls note that WSAEventSelect is limited to 64 simultainous events (because WaitForMultipleObjects can get only up to 64 handles). If you are planning to support more then 64 connections at once, consider using IOCP.
