libssh2_poll(3) 		     libssh2			 libssh2_poll(3)

NAME
     libssh2_poll - poll for activity on a socket, channel or listener

SYNOPSIS
     #include <libssh2.h>

     int
     libssh2_poll(LIBSSH2_POLLFD *fds, unsigned int nfds, long timeout);

DESCRIPTION
     This function is deprecated. Do note use. We encourage users to instead use
     the  poll(3)  or  select(3)  functions to check for socket activity or when
     specific sockets are ready to get received from or send to.

     Poll for activity on a socket, channel, listener,	or  any  combination  of
     these  three types. The calling semantics for this function generally match
     poll(2) however the structure of fds is somewhat more complex in  order  to
     accommodate  the disparate datatypes, POLLFD constants have been namespaced
     to avoid platform discrepancies, and revents has additional values defined.

RETURN VALUE
     Number of fds with interesting events.
