Using select()
Explore how to implement event-based concurrency using the select() API to monitor multiple network sockets for incoming data. Understand the use of FD_ZERO, FD_SET, FD_ISSET macros to manage descriptor sets and how to avoid blocking calls to maintain server responsiveness. This lesson helps you grasp core concepts that prevent concurrency bugs by leveraging single-threaded event-driven server design.
