SPC_FD_SET read_mask;
for (;;) {
spc_fd_zero(&read_mask);
spc_fd_set(server_fd, &read_mask);
for (i = 0; i < client_count; i++) spc_fd_set(client_fds[i], &read_mask);
select(spc_fd_size(&read_mask), (fd_set *)&read_mask, 0, 0, 0);
if (spc_fd_isset(server_fd, &read_mask)) {
/* Do something with the server_fd such as call accept( ) */
}
for (i = 0; i < client_count; i++)
if (spc_fd_isset(client_fds[i], &read_mask)) {
/* Read some data from the client's socket descriptor */
}
spc_fd_free(&read_mask);
}
}
As you can see, the code that uses SPC_FD_SET is not all that different from the code
that uses fd_set. Naming issues aside, the only real differences are the need to cast
the SPC_FD_SET object to an fd_set object, and to call spc_fd_free( ).
