>have no idea how this translates over to C#
So if I understand well, are you saying that if I use gnulib windows version via C# (pinvoke, this kind of magic) I will have access to poll function ?
Intersting, I'll take a look. I hope gnulib if published via a dll under windows, if so, I'm pretty sure I can use it with C#

Libvirt uses gnulib to guarantee that poll() works on file descriptors;
all socket operations are magically mapped by gnulib to behave like file
descriptors, so that you don't have to worry about the (less-useful)
restrictions of windows poll() only working on sockets.

There is - it involves using gnulib. But that is only for C and C++ - I
have no idea how this translates over to C#.
