Should be fixed in 0.2.3. Let me know.JimOn Jun 14, 2013, at 3:24 PM, Jim Ursetto <address@hidden> wrote:Hi,It's a bug in the socket egg; nonblocking mode is only set during a socket-connect or socket-accept, which won't be called for UDP.Temporary workaround: (use posix) and then, after creating the socket, do either:(##sys#file-nonblocking! (socket-fileno *socket*))or equivalently(file-control fcntl/setfl (socket-fileno *socket*)(bitwise-ior (file-control fcntl/getfl (socket-fileno *socket*))open/nonblock))Neither workaround will work on Windows.Permanent fix: We should probably make all sockets nonblocking at creation time instead, since our machinery assumes nonblocking sockets. We could expose the set-nonblocking operation to the user, but since TCP is always nonblocking, doing this only for UDP would be strange.

The documentation for socket clearly states that socket-receive should not block:This call will block until data is available, but other threads can proceed.
What is wrong with my socket fd?K.
