We're using gnulib for socket stuff, and that wraps the Winsock socket() call so that it returns a real file descriptor rather than a socket handle. It does this calling _open_osfhandle which appears to be declared to accept a 'long' and return an 'int' - at least in MinGW headers. MinGW doesn't implement Win64 though, so its possible the header isn't quite right. If you have a Win64 box available, could you post what you see as the declarations for _open_osfhandle _get_osfhandle Regards, Daniel -- |: Red Hat, Engineering, London -o- http://people.redhat.com/berrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org -o- http://ovirt.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: GnuPG: 7D3B9505 -o- F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 :| -- Libvir-list mailing list Libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
