ioctlsocket的作用

ioctlsocket is short for io control socket,也就是指示SOCKET的IO mode.可以为阻塞或者非阻塞.

以下代码copy from MSDN。代码中iMode参数指示了阻塞或者非阻塞的模式。

#include <winsock2.h>
#include <stdio.h>

#pragma comment(lib, "Ws2_32.lib")

void main()
{
//-------------------------
// Initialize Winsock
WSADATA wsaData;
int iResult;
u_long iMode = 0;

iResult = WSAStartup(MAKEWORD(2,2), &wsaData);
if (iResult != NO_ERROR)
  printf("Error at WSAStartup()\n");

//-------------------------
// Create a SOCKET object.
SOCKET m_socket;
m_socket = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP);
if (m_socket == INVALID_SOCKET) {
  printf("Error at socket(): %ld\n", WSAGetLastError());
  WSACleanup();
  return;
}

//-------------------------
// Set the socket I/O mode: In this case FIONBIO
// enables or disables the blocking mode for the 
// socket based on the numerical value of iMode.
// If iMode = 0, blocking is enabled; 
// If iMode != 0, non-blocking mode is enabled.

iResult = ioctlsocket(m_socket, FIONBIO, &iMode);
if (iResult != NO_ERROR)
  printf("ioctlsocket failed with error: %ld\n", iResult);
  

}
