I am helping re-write a program for a newsgroup. It uses the IP*Works controls to send and recive WinSock messages...
Is there a way to detect when the winsock is really finished... and to tell the program to "do events" until then?
it depends on how the "asynchronous" call from HTTP40 works, and whether the state returns consistently to 0 or not when the winsock is finished canceling. So the answers you get may apply to the winsock, but not necessarily to the control's behavior
the control (in most cases) returns control to the program, while it does its thing, so the program has to loop watching for the status to change. BUT HOW WIL I DO IT????
