RecvFrom TimeOut and flags

I have the impresion that a RecvFrom will quit after a certain timeout.
Is there a way to set this timeout interval?
Possibly, this might be by means of the flags one could pass in the RecvFro=
m call.=20

But, I don´t know how to find which flags I could pass to the RecvFro=
m call. I find this rather=20
curiously lacking from the documentation.

Hi [~mach],

There's no timeout by default*. The only way RecvFrom will return is when a=
datagram packet is available, an error occured or the connection closed.

If you'd like to have your own timeout mechanism, I suggest using a seperat=
e timer object in your code and wait for it, if RecvFrom doesn't complete b=
y that time, just call call CancelRecvFrom.

* BSD style sockets on *NIX platforms may support a socket option SO_RECVTI=
MEO, that might have done the trick, but its not present on Symbian OS AFAI=
K, even if you are using PIPS.

Hope that helps.
