I am looking at using XtAppAddInput in conjunction with RPC.  I need a file
descriptor for XtAppAddInput.  The documentation on RPC says that you can
have your own select that waits on your own descriptors, so it must be possible
to get the descriptor for the RPC socket.  There is a lot of documentation
to weed through to figure out how to do it.

Question:  Does anyone out there have a C code segment that gets the file
descriptor of an RPC socket?  If so, could you be so gracious as to send it
to me?


Thanks in advance,

Jim

Sorry to post here, I am not a wizard :-(

Here are some references to check:

me no wizard, but me got Source Code!  me LOVE archie when searching
for 'rpcgen'.  me also have man-pages, but me no read them. 8-)

The functions  clntudp_create()  and clnttcp_create()  will use any socket
you specify, or choose (open, and return) a 'random' socket if you dont
specify.  The function  clnt_control()  can return the current socket.
