| Re: [TWC] what could these "localhost" connections be? Yes I understand that you need a pair of ports/sockets for one connection. I should have made it clear that I was talking about ports/sockets not connections. From the post by EG that I cited
said by a firefox programmer :
I don't know how to implement NSPR pollable events on Windows without using a pair of TCP sockets, Now since in this case they are established versus listening, as was the case in the other example, you may be correct, all 4 sockets/ports may be simply for pollable events. Still in reading the complete reference I am not sure there should be more then 2 sockets/ports for the pollable events cited by that programmer, though it would make sense since the connection to check for a pollable event would be made to the listening socket and there normally are 2 listening ports/sockets. -- Warning, If you post nonsense and use misinformation and are here to argue based on those methods, you will be put on ignore. |
