91 * operating systems on which GLib runs. Right now, the
92 * GLib does use these functions on Win32 as well, but interprets
93 * them in a fairly different way than on Unix. If you use
94 * these definitions, you are should be prepared to recode
95 * for different operating systems.
98 * On Win32, the fd in a GPollFD should be Win32 HANDLE (*not* a file
99 * descriptor as provided by the C runtime) that can be used by
100 * MsgWaitForMultipleObjects. This does *not* include file handles
101 * from CreateFile, SOCKETs, nor pipe handles. (But you can use
102 * WSAEventSelect to signal events when a SOCKET is readable).
104 * On Win32, fd can also be the special value G_WIN32_MSG_HANDLE to
105 * indicate polling for messages.
107 * But note that G_WIN32_MSG_HANDLE GPollFDs should not be used by GDK
108 * (GTK) programs, as GDK itself wants to read messages and convert them
109 * to GDK events.
111 * So, unless you really know what you are doing, it's best not to try
112 * to use the main loop polling stuff for your own needs on
113 * Win32. It's really only written for the GIMP's needs so
114 * far.
