Hi
How do I set timeouts on TCP sockets (connect(), read(), etc.) in a
multithreaded program?
I can’t use select(), since it is not thread-safe. I can’t use alarm() for
the same reason.
I’m on QNX6.2, GCC.
TIA
Dmitri

You can use select() as long as the fd set is unique to each thread.

Thanks, Chris.
What about SO_RCVTIMEO and SO_SNDTIMEO? Do they work on QNX?
Thanks, Chris.

It appears to be, yes.

In 6.2.1.
There’s also TimerTimeout() on _NTO_TIMEOUT_SEND | _NTO_TIMEOUT_REPLY.
