Windows Build Killer: lib/nanosleep.c

[Conrad T. Pino]

Hi All,

File "lib/nanosleep.c" is a problem for these reasons:

1. defines function "my_usleep" which invokes function
"select" & VC6 has an implementation found by including
"winsock.h" which is NOT portable I presume,

2. function "select" uses a "struct timeval" argument
and VC6 doesn't have a definition of it in the expected
"time.h" file,

Function "nanosleep" references can be fixed in compile
and link with a combination of

A. "#include <winsock.h>" in "lib/nanosleep.c" file,

B. "#define nanosleep rpl_nanosleep" in "config.h" file.

but I'd like some feedback before committing to this as
a potential fix.

Best regards,

Conrad Pino

Microsoft's documentation of "select" function follows:
