Subject: [ruby-talk:17616] Re: Net/Http problem - connect(2) error on windows

/cygdrive/c/ruby/lib/ruby/1.6/net/protocol.rb:507:in `new': Invalid
argument - "connect(2)"(Errno::EINVAL)


This has been fixed in the development version of ruby.  The required change
is in socket.c.  I don't know how to use patch but here is the fix without
patch.

In ruby_connect,
-- existing:
#ifdef EINPROGRESS
       case EINPROGRESS:
-- fix:
#if defined __CYGWIN__
  {
      struct timeval tv;
      tv.tv_sec = 0;
      tv.tv_usec = 100000;
      rb_thread_wait_for(tv);
  }
#endif
-- existing:
#endif
