[fpc-devel] Old sockets stuff and SSockets...

[Ales Katona]

I'm currently "about to fix" certain issues with old sockets functions.

I'm talking about Accept and Connect functions with "Text" parameters.
These are currently only present in win32 sockets and are basicly a
leftover from an old idea gone wrong.

I want to remove them but if someone feels that that's a real
requirement for them to stay (remember, currently they remain only in
windows "sockets") tell me.

Secondly there's some new SSockets bugreps/feature requests come up. I
understand MvC made SSockets right?

Is the unit to be considered atleast viable? I didn't look much at it
but from what I hear it's rather old.

I'm not sure what to do about SSockets tbh (wether to update/accept user
extentions and "features" or tell them it's deprecated or even delete
the thing)
