Subject: Socket vs File descriptor
Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2009 23:51:19 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <179773.9311.qm@web8404.mail.in.yahoo.com> (raw)

Hi,

Is there any  ioctl call to determine if a given descriptor is a file descriptor or a socket descriptor.

Similarly, is there a way to find out a socket descriptor type ie.e if it is SOCK_STREAM, or SOCK_DGRAM type.

Thanks
Pav
