i'm trying to make a .dll that will let me use WSAPoll, which is a windows sockets function, to mimic select.poll on a windows box. i cbb learning python extensions, so i'm just going to use ctypes with a dll, so I hope that it doesn't bring up a big performance issue. anyway, the problem is that I want to use Python-created sockets with it, but WSAPoll requires winsock2.h SOCKET objects.
so unless someone can tell me how to create/reference a windows socket object using the winsock2 lib from just a file/socket descriptor (being that this isn't a windows programming forum), i'm just asking how I could gain access to the actual Windows socket associated with a Python socket that Python for Windows has to store somewhere. even if I have to modify socketmodule.c. btw, i don't know much about this stuff, i hardly ever even program in c++, so i hope anybody's not too cryptic :P -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
