[Mono-devel-list] Regarding blocking Read operation

[Atsushi Eno]

Hi,

I had to implement non-blocking TextReader in xml stream reader,
so it might be also usable for you:

http://svn.myrealbox.com/source/trunk/mcs/class/System.XML/System.Xml/XmlInputStream.cs

You can just copy NonBlockingStreamReader class from this source.
