Top posting is evil, even if you move my quote :-(
I am new to eCos. Could you please explain a little more.
What file descriptor are you trying to select on and how did you open it?
Unless it's a device which supports interrupts and asynchronous operations,
select won't do a lot for you.
Also, you don't say what behaviour you are seeing, just asking if something
is wrong with this code snippet. What does it do? How would you expect it to behave?

Yes - the first parameter to select() is the number of open file
descriptors to check (fd in 0..N-1). Putting a zero there will
never yield any activity.
Typically, one puts the max # of open file descriptors or at
least the highest known open one + 1.
True. But it runs perfectly on eCos and linux. I facing some
problem, whenever i hit a key on keyboard in eCos. Is there connection
to this select system call here.
How are you connecting to the keyboard? If you are just using stdin,
the default will be the debug/console channel which is not interrupt
driven and select can't help you.
