Estou tentando usar a função select para ter E / S sem bloqueio entre um servidor e um cliente (não mais), onde a comunicação flui bem (pode ser enviada a qualquer momento e a outra será recebida sem esperar para enviar). Encontrei um tutorial com algum código e tentei adaptá-lo ao meu. Isto é o que eu tenho -

Servido

#define PORT "4950"
#define STDIN 0

struct sockaddr name;

void set_nonblock(int socket) {
    int flags;
    flags = fcntl(socket,F_GETFL,0);
    assert(flags != -1);
    fcntl(socket, F_SETFL, flags | O_NONBLOCK);
}


// get sockaddr, IPv4 or IPv6:
void *get_in_addr(struct sockaddr *sa) {
    if (sa->sa_family == AF_INET)
        return &(((struct sockaddr_in*)sa)->sin_addr);

    return &(((struct sockaddr_in6*)sa)->sin6_addr);
}

int main(int agrc, char** argv) {
    int status, sock, adrlen, new_sd;

    struct addrinfo hints;
    struct addrinfo *servinfo;  //will point to the results

    //store the connecting address and size
    struct sockaddr_storage their_addr;
    socklen_t their_addr_size;

    fd_set read_flags,write_flags; // the flag sets to be used
    struct timeval waitd;          // the max wait time for an event
    int sel;                      // holds return value for select();

    //socket infoS
    memset(&hints, 0, sizeof hints); //make sure the struct is empty
    hints.ai_family = AF_INET;
    hints.ai_socktype = SOCK_STREAM; //tcp
    hints.ai_flags = AI_PASSIVE;     //use local-host address

    //get server info, put into servinfo
    if ((status = getaddrinfo("127.0.0.1", PORT, &hints, &servinfo)) != 0) {
        fprintf(stderr, "getaddrinfo error: %s\n", gai_strerror(status));
        exit(1);
    }

    //make socket
    sock = socket(servinfo->ai_family, servinfo->ai_socktype, servinfo->ai_protocol);
    if (sock < 0) {
        printf("\nserver socket failure %m", errno);
        exit(1);
    }

    //allow reuse of port
    int yes=1;
    if (setsockopt(sock,SOL_SOCKET,SO_REUSEADDR,&yes,sizeof(int)) == -1) {
        perror("setsockopt");
        exit(1);
    }

    //unlink and bind
    unlink("127.0.0.1");
    if(bind (sock, servinfo->ai_addr, servinfo->ai_addrlen) < 0) {
        printf("\nBind error %m", errno);
        exit(1);
    }

    freeaddrinfo(servinfo);

    //listen
    if(listen(sock, 5) < 0) {
        printf("\nListen error %m", errno);
        exit(1);
    }
    their_addr_size = sizeof(their_addr);

    //accept
    new_sd = accept(sock, (struct sockaddr*)&their_addr, &their_addr_size);
    if( new_sd < 0) {
        printf("\nAccept error %m", errno);
        exit(1);
    }

    set_nonblock(new_sd);
    cout<<"\nSuccessful Connection!";

    char* in = new char[255];
    char* out = new char[255];
    int numSent;
    int numRead;


    while(1) {

        waitd.tv_sec = 10;
        FD_ZERO(&read_flags);
        FD_ZERO(&write_flags);
        FD_SET(new_sd, &read_flags);

        if(strlen(out) != 0)
            FD_SET(new_sd, &write_flags);

        sel = select(new_sd+1, &read_flags, &write_flags, (fd_set*)0, &waitd);
        if(sel < 0)
            continue;

        //socket ready for reading
        if(FD_ISSET(new_sd, &read_flags)) {
            FD_CLR(new_sd, &read_flags);

            memset(&in, 0, sizeof(in));

            if(recv(new_sd, in, sizeof(in), 0) <= 0) {
                close(new_sd);
                break;

            else

Client (basicamente o mesmo, menos uma chamada de aceitação) -

#define PORT "4950"

struct sockaddr name;

void set_nonblock(int socket) {
    int flags;
    flags = fcntl(socket,F_GETFL,0);

}

// get sockaddr, IPv4 or IPv6:
void *get_in_addr(struct sockaddr *sa) {
    if (sa->sa_family == AF_INET)
        return &(((struct sockaddr_in*)sa)->sin_addr);

    return &(((struct sockaddr_in6*)sa)->sin6_addr);
}

int main(int agrc, char** argv) {
    int status, sock, adrlen;

    struct addrinfo hints;
    struct addrinfo *servinfo;  //will point to the results

    fd_set read_flags,write_flags; // the flag sets to be used

        printf("\nclient connection failure %m", errno);
        exit(1);
    }

    cout<<"\nSuccessful connection!";

    set_nonblock(sock);

    char* out = new char[255];

        if(strlen(out) != 0)
            FD_SET(sock, &write_flags);


        sel = select(sock+1, &read_flags, &write_flags, (fd_set*)0, &waitd);
        if(sel < 0)
            continue;

        //socket ready for reading
        if(FD_ISSET(sock, &read_flags)) {
            FD_CLR(sock, &read_flags);

            memset(&in, 0, sizeof(in));

            if(recv(sock, in, sizeof(in), 0) <= 0) {
                close(sock);
                break;

            send(sock, out, strlen(out), 0);
            memset(&out, 0, sizeof(out));
        }
    }   //end while

    cout<<"\n\nExiting normally\n";
    return 0;
}

O problema é que, quando os executo, nada acontece. Posso digitar um e pressionar enter e nada aparece na outra tela (e vice-versa). Isso não é uma informação completa para eu depurar e esta é minha primeira tentativa real de usar o select, então pensei que talvez não soubesse de algo simples. Se algo puder ser considerado errado ou estranho, indique-o, qualquer ajuda é apreciad
