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 addi-
       tional values defined.

RETURN VALUE
       Number of fds with interesting events.
