Hiya

I am developing a simple server application and I have a primary thread 
which looks for incoming connections (using accept()). This thread is 
correctly blocking on the socket. When an incoming connection is
detected this primary thread creates a service thread to handle the
connection.

My problem is twofold:
1.Originally the service thread used WSAWaitForMultipleEvents() but it
never seemed to receive any events:

 KOWinsockConnector(SOCKET connectionSocket)
  :mySocket(connectionSocket),
  myRunning(false),
  myNetworkEvent(WSACreateEvent()),
  myThreadID(GetCurrentThreadId())
 {
 }

 // Service thread
 virtual DWORD Run()
 {
  myRunning=true;

  printf("%u:Listener thread started.\n",myThreadID);

  while(true)
  {
   DWORD eventID=WSAWaitForMultipleEvents(1,
&myNetworkEvent,FALSE,WSA_INFINITE,FALSE);
  [snip]

2.I changed the code to just call recv(). This echoes incoming data 
correctly but it isn't blocking.

 // Service thread
 virtual DWORD Run()
 {
  myRunning=true;

  printf("%u:Listener thread started.\n",myThreadID);

  while(true)
  {
   char str[1024];
    int recvLength = recv(mySocket,str,sizeof(str),0);
    if(recvLength&&
     (recvLength<sizeof(str)))
    {
      str[recvLength] = '\0';
      printf("%u:%s\n",myThreadID,str);
    }
[snip]

Can anyone shed any light on this?
