ping and multithreading

[banditblue]

Hello to all

I'm creating a class which does the ping. I'm using rawsocket from this example ( http://tangentsoft.net/wskfaq/examples/rawping.html ).
In this example the process blocks the execution flow when the pinged machine is down. I dont want my process freezes so i have used multithreading: a new thread for each instance. At the moment it doesn't work well. Is there any problem to use rawsocket with multithreading?

Thanks in advance

You could use non-blocking sockets for your ping.

Too many difficult for me and too much time. Ping is a little piece of my project.
My project is a dll unmanaged: it offers "C" procedures to the user. Is there a way to use managed ping class for my problem?

Thank you
