[comp.windows.x] X I/O Errors

sydorow@bisco.kodak.com (Steve Sydorowicz) (04/18/91)

    Could someone "in the know" summarize the reasons for using the
compile-time defines of EWOULDBLOCK/EMSGSIZE when making
the X11R4 release? My curiosity relates to _XFlush() and the possible
errors returned from WriteToServer(). I have an application that works
well on SUN 3/80 systems, but seems to have occasional problems on
Sparcs. I suspect that there is some difference in file buffers or
something, and was curious as to the reasoning of "ifdefing"
in the _XFlush code.

                      Thanks much,
                      Steve
