How to use select() function with file descriptors

My idea is to use select() to identify appended lines to the files.

Here is a very brief code:

int fd =open("c:\\1.log",O_RDONLY);

char buff[256];
fd_set rfdset;
FD_ZERO(&rfdset);
timeval tv;
tv.tv_sec = 30;
tv.tv_usec = 0;

FD_SET(fd, &rfdset);
while (1)
{
      int bReady = select(1,&rfdset,NULL,NULL,NULL);
      if (bReady > 0)
      {
    int n =  read(fd,buff,255);
    printf("\n %d : %s",n,buff);
      }else
          {
    printf("Select failed with Error : %ld",GetLastError());
            break;
          }
}

close(fd);

:( with this I am hitting the error:10038(An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket.)
