[Haskell-cafe] Re: all threads are blocked by recvFrom

[Vitaliy Akimov]

It's not an issue of error codes. Though error code of WSAEWOULDBLOCK
and EAGAIN is different this is not the problem. You've posted a link
to preprocessed source code. And there is no implementation of
throwErrnoIfMinus1Retry_repeatOnBlock for Windows. This function for
Windows treat WSAEWOULDBLOCK as error, and it doesn't have loop for
its correct processing. It's not a surprise since the socket isn't
supposed to be blocked on windows.

Here is source code with setting socket to non-blocking mode [1]. It
terminates with error:
>	UdpEcho.exe: recvFrom: failed (Resource temporarily unavailable
(WSAEWOULDBLOCK))
