Wait for a Socket to Become Writable
See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples
Demonstrates Socket.SelectForWriting, which waits for the socket, or sockets in a socket set, to become writable. It returns 1 if writable, 0 on timeout, or -1 on error.
Background. A timeoutMs of 0 performs a nonblocking poll. This is useful before attempting to send when the peer may be applying flow control.
