Hello,
First, many thanks to develop and support free softwares.
perldoc IO::Socket::INET says
Timeout Timeout value for various operations
But the timeout method seems not longer supported,
it doesn't work, there is even code removing the
Timeout argument :
IO::Select
sub new {
...
${*$sock}{'io_socket_timeout'} = delete $arg{Timeout};
I guess there are good reasons for this.
So the best is to correct the documentation and warn
the coder that the Timeout is no longer a timeout
value for various operations.
I have a socket pending for several hours.
Thanks in advance.
