[En-Nut-Discussion] Generating socket events

[Trevor O'Grady]

Ole, thanks for your reply.
I thought that NutTcpSend does not block (I could be wrong) so how do I do a
blocking send?

Cheers
Trevor

Hello,

This should be easy too. You only need to create an extra buffer you
will write in. Now your control thread could send data (blocking) and
create an event if there is again space in your buffer. So it would not
matter to use a blocking send function because this is done in your
control thread. Your FTP application will receive the empty event if the
control thread has consumed enough data out of your buffer.

Hops this will help,

Ole
