            I will be starting some TCP socket programming in Java later on this
year, and the direction I would look for a solution is something that works
very much like a BSD Socket "select()" function.

            I took a quick look at the Java API documentation on Sun's web site for
this, but didn't find anything -- perhaps I'm not looking the right places
(any hints from other developers would be greatly appreciated).
