Hi, Correct me if I am wrong, if I give -1 as the timeout parameter to ipq_read, then ipq_read returns : -1 incase of an error, a +ve non zero value, if there was something to read 0 if there was nothing to read, or a non-blocked signal was caught . Also, since I gave this -ve value as timeout parameter ipq_read would return immediately if there was nothing to read . regards Amit "DISCLAIMER: This message is proprietary to Hughes Software Systems Limited (HSS) and is intended solely for the use of the individual to whom it is addressed.
