Question on Gnucleus socket Close()

[Moak]

Hi swabby,

what is the purpose of your extra code in the sockets Close() method? Would it make a difference if I leave it away?
I mean this code snippet:

	// Clean receive buffer
	int iRet = 0;
	byte pBuf[4096];	
	while( (iRet = Receive(pBuf, 4096)) > 0 );

	// Close socket
	AsyncSelect(0);

Mutella (a kind of Unix reincarnation) does something different:

	AsyncSelect(FD_CLOSE);
	ShutDown(2);

Thx for some helping words, Moak
