After reading perldoc -f select, I still can't get my head around the select function. especially this idom:
($nfound,$timeleft) =
select($rout=$rin, $wout=$win, $eout=$ein,$timeout);
What is $rout=$rin, $wout=$win, $eout=$ein? and the return $nfound
Are they refering to default input, output, error output?
How select are used to manage multiple listening sockets?
I often see vec and fileno involved with select.
Anyone can exlain it in plain english to me, or maybe my english is not good engough to understand the perldoc :(
