> The C++ unit_tests test suite won't run correctly on Windows. The main issue is that the SocketProxy class, used as a relay between client and broker that can be programmed to drop data or close a connection at an inopportune time, uses the Poller class in a way that's incompatible with the Windows IocpPoller.
> The Poller class is used to react to events on the sockets being used, but the SocketProxy class then expects to perform the needed send/recv operations directly on the Socket classes. However, the Windows Poller class reacts to I/O completions, not possibilities, so it's not compatible with the approach taken by SocketProxy.
> I tried replacing this with AsynchIO use... too messy and leaky.
> I have an approach working that uses select() instead of the Poller. It's portable, even if a bit trickier to use correctly than Poller. Patch forthcoming.
