I'm a beginner to implement TCP program using select function in c under windows.
I don't know how to use it.
MSDN only defines the select function and not giving any implementation example.

I also referred in google to get an example.
But I can get only coding in c under linux.

Can you help me..

Please guide me to create TCP using select function.

See How to use the select function with socket in c under windows platform[^].

Honestly, are you the same person as http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/View.aspx?mid=7395065[^]?! I noticed you come together. Same question!

Look at their member pages, both work for the same company, although one is the Junior. :)

I even have a feeling this is the same person. Even if they are too separate... well not separate enough to consider them different. :-)

Forget the select function until you have mastered the basics of TCP. There are plenty of samples to be found through Google which will show you how to create a simple client/server system. Once you are comfortable with the basics you can move to the more advanced setups using multiple clients etc.

Yes sir.. I have created multiple clients and handled by using thread concept. Now my next step is to use select to handle multiple clients.

Do you have any sample code to refer..

A little bit of effort using Google would have found you this.
