However, in order to stay compatible with most clients, writefds whether there is room in the kernel buffers to write to a socket behaves as though writing data will succeed this is usually fine and exceptfds behaves as though there are no exception conditions on the socket exceptfds will always. Some behavior may be platform dependent, since calls are made to the operating system socket apis. They have neither been developed, nor tested for nonautomotive applications. Currently only the readfds condition whether there is data to read on a socket is supported. This is done without the copy operation typically used by the traditional bsd sockets.

Poco sockets are a very thin layer on top of bsd sockets and thus incur a minimal performance overhead basically an additional call to a virtual function. Sockets were first developed as a part of the bsd unix system kernel, in which they allow processes that are not running at the same time or on the same system to exchange information.
They are commonly referred to as berkeley sockets or bsd sockets.
