fcntl() + Blocking

[kevinchkin]

Hi Guys,

I have a quick question, I have set up a socket file descriptor to non-blocking mode using fcntl() function call. Now how do I set this back to blocking mode?

Thanks a lot in advance

Surprisingly simple:

int flags = fcntl(fd, F_GETFL);
int result = fcntl(fd, F_SETFL, flags & ~O_NONBLOCK);

Just wait until you learn the wonders of poll(2).
