c++ - Using IOCP with send() and recv() -

i trying figure out best way handle multiple connections c++ tcp server. stumbled upon epoll() sadly it's available linux , i'm doing on windows.

after research seems best way handle sockets on windows use of i/o completion ports. use them, client application uses send() , recv() (i cannot change that), meaning need use same functions send , receive data client. these functions don't seem used iocp (wsasend() / wsarecv() used instead).

i'd know if there's still way able use iocp send() , recv()? or should other methods?

i need use same functions send , receive data client

that's incorrect. client has no idea how data , out of tcp connection, either way same exact tcp segments sent across network.

if server i/o bound, wsaasyncselect and/or wsaeventselect work (and save trouble of multithreading). compute-bound services iocp worthwhile, because distribute work items available thread simultaneous requests can spin , calculations on multiple processor cores.

wsapoll option.
