Just wondering since the documentation is really scarce on this: Overlapped sockets, they just allow asynchronous i/o, right? (As in completely useless for sockets in SOCK_DGRAM mode?) [edited by - Siaon on November 19, 2003 11:51:06 AM]

They make it easier to use asynchronous I/O. And they are not useless for datagram type sockets.
