Hi.

I am in the process of implementing a IOCP on a Windows program. The program works as designs using WSAAsyncSelect I/O.

Under IOCP, for some reason the call to function GetQueuedCompletionStatus(...) returns immediately even when I specify INFINITE wait. Thus, the cpu usage is aways at 100%. This occurs during program initialization as I want the program to create a completion port on startup. Again, the creating of the completion port does not run an error. The creation of the worker thread to handle completion events and where GetQueuedCompletionStatus(...) resides does not run an error.

However, for some reason, GetQueueCompletionStatus(...) returns immediately even with the INFINITE parameter. This occurs while the completion port is empty, or there are no sockets associated with it yet. How is that possible? And each time it returns, the byte transfer is always 0.

Please post if you have any suggestion as to where to begin debugging.

Thanks,
Kuphryn
