[Ace-users] [ace-users] ACE_Select_Reactor not calling handle_output( )

[Steve Huston]

Thanks very much for the PROBLEM-REPORT-FORM.

Ok.

Right, this is expected when using schedule_wakeup() and
cancel_wakeup(). Please see C++NPv2 section 3.5 for why this is and
what you need to do to have your events handled as you want.
