Web server "events" needed ? Mark Gilmore Thu, 10 Feb 2000 08:51:56 -0500

Hi all,
In servicing web-based Client requests, the example I referenced
defined "Events" for ACCEPT/READ/WRITE/CLOSE. I am still confused
as to the diff btw READ/WRITE events (all I know is that when i get
a WRITE Event, that I sometimes need to wait a second or so for I
get the request packet from the Client). And I have YET to see a
CLOSE Event.

QUESTION:
Do I really need these "events" at all ?
I.E. - couldn't I just call accept() (to check for new connections)
and recv() (to check for Client requests), and react appropriately
(withOUT the use of these "events") ??
