select (ULTRIX)						       select (ULTRIX)

NAME
       select - Synchronous I/O multiplexing

DIFFERENCES
       On  ULTRIX systems, XTI is layered on sockets. If you call select() for
       an incoming asynchronous XTI connection, the socket  becomes  writable.
       On  Digital  UNIX  systems,  XTI	 is  layered  on  streams. If you call
       select(), the socket becomes  readable.	You  can  either  modify  your
       application  to	work with the Digital UNIX select() call or substitute
       the poll() call for the select() call and modify	 your  application  to
       use  this call. See the Network Programmer's Guide for more information
       on XTI.
