/* Any definitions using GPollFD or GPollFunc are primarily
* for Unix and not guaranteed to be the compatible on all
* operating systems on which GLib runs. Right now, the
* GLib does use these functions on Win32 as well, but interprets
* them in a fairly different way than on Unix. If you use
* these definitions, you are should be prepared to recode
* for different operating systems.
*
* Note that on systems with a working poll(2), that function is used
* in place of g_poll(). Thus g_poll() must have the same signature as
* poll(), meaning GPollFD must have the same layout as struct pollfd.
*
* On Win32, the fd in a GPollFD should be Win32 HANDLE (*not* a file
* descriptor as provided by the C runtime) that can be used by
* MsgWaitForMultipleObjects. This does *not* include file handles
* from CreateFile, SOCKETs, nor pipe handles. (But you can use
* WSAEventSelect to signal events when a SOCKET is readable).
*
* On Win32, fd can also be the special value G_WIN32_MSG_HANDLE to
* indicate polling for messages.
*
* But note that G_WIN32_MSG_HANDLE GPollFDs should not be used by GDK
* (GTK) programs, as GDK itself wants to read messages and convert them
* to GDK events.
*
* So, unless you really know what you are doing, it's best not to try
* to use the main loop polling stuff for your own needs on
* Windows.
