Subject:   A question about Winsock style API
Message-ID:  <200106120327.LAA05738@mail.jbu.com.cn>

    Hello,I want to known if the development team has a plan to add Winnsock style API,
such as WSAConnect and WSAAccept.I want to get the connection data to judge my program's
behavior,I think these two APIs are very useful.
    I read the man page of accept,it says:

     For certain protocols which require an explicit confirmation, such as ISO
     or DATAKIT, accept() can be thought of as merely dequeueing the next con-
     nection request and not implying confirmation.  Confirmation can be im-
     plied by a normal read or write on the new file descriptor, and rejection
     can be implied by closing the new socket.

     One can obtain user connection request data without confirming the con-
     nection by issuing a recvmsg(2) call with an msg_iovlen of 0 and a non-
     zero msg_controllen, or by issuing a getsockopt(2) request.  Similarly,
     one can provide user connection rejection information by issuing a
     sendmsg(2) call with providing only the control information, or by call-
     ing setsockopt(2).

   So does anyone know something more?
   Thanks.
