Attached my code. I tried to make it work for linux but was unable to 
test it, I don't know much about linux. I get this error when running 
dmd on debian:
./dmd: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open 
shared object file: No such file or directory
I tried to install libstdc++ libs but the error remains.

I'd appreciate it if someone could help by getting the code to work for 
linux or helping me fix my problem :)

From my own experience, that means you have to update a lot of things, not
only that one, and with very recent versions.

I've attached a slightly modified socket.d. From what I can remember:
- version(linux) instead of Linux
- declared fd_set for BsdSockets
- blocking in Socket class was only defined for Windows, although being used
in both versions. Commented out the line
- errno declared as extern(C)

I think that's it.

I tested it on RedHat 9, and it compiled without a problem, but when testing
it, I got "Socket select error". Any ideas?

Yes, fd_set is handled differently for linux, I'm working on it now. I 
got DMD to work on linux. Thanks for your help.

Here we go, Socket.select() is working on linux! Seems to be all good now.

Only change in socket.d

extern int errno; to ->  extern (C) int errno;

at line 144

It's already in an extern(C) block, and I think extern(C) is different 
from just extern..

Sorry, I'm wrong. I didn't realize extern was short for extern(D).

I guess this one could be considered socket.d 1.0. I've tested it pretty 
well, even made a test server that accepts multiple connections, 
listener.d included. It works good for windows and linux.

Still needed:
- Host name resolving
- Socket stream class

Good work! i have tested in linux and writen some code for connecting to 
listener.d and run fine.

thanks for the work...

Just gave it a quick scan.  It's not bad so far.  A few things could 
probably be simplified (like toAddrString could be a single line calling 
inet_ntoa instead of all that string stuff), and you might want to 
consider using the newer functions that support IPv6, or at least making 
sure your interface will work seamlessly with the new connection 
methods.  I say let people use it and push for Phobos inclusion once 
it's been used a bit and you've gotten some feedback.

I have to say that I don't know much about IPv6. I would think all you 
need to do is set the AddressFamily to INET6 in Socket's constructor and 
make a new Address class such as IPv6Address that uses C's struct 
sockaddr differently; but I don't know so I'll look into it. Thanks.

I have tested it on Slackware and run fine with some changes....

At first, the "Socket select error" is right, because you haven't a http 
server listening at 127.0.0.1 port 80

The second is that Socket.select is not right implemented for linux (at 
first reading of socked.d) comment it on and will run ok.

try this modified version for sockettest.d (watch the commented lines, 
real IP number and s.send string with a true http site.... ;-) :

import socket;

// dmd sockettest socket ws2_32.lib


int main()
{
	
	/+	//regular blocking
	Socket s = new Socket(AddressFamily.INET, SocketType.STREAM, 
ProtocolType.IP);
	s.connect(new InternetAddress("127.0.0.1", 444));
	s.send("Foo!");
	printf("Local=%.*s, Remote=%.*s\r\n", s.localAddress().toString(), 
s.remoteAddress().toString());
	s.close();
	+/
	
	
	/+
		//nonblocking with select()
	Socket s = new Socket(AddressFamily.INET, SocketType.STREAM, 
ProtocolType.IP);
	s.blocking = false;
	assert(s.blocking == false);
	SocketSet sset = new SocketSet(1);
	sset.add(s);
	s.connect(new InternetAddress("127.0.0.1", 444));
	printf("select=%d\r\n", Socket.select(null, sset, null, 1000)); //wait 
for connection
	s.send(cast(dchar[])"Foo!");
	sset.reset(1);import socket;

// dmd sockettest socket ws2_32.lib
