Hello everyone,
I'm currently writing a client application that shall communicate with a server
using the EADK socket library. Now, if I run that program under linux,
everything works flawlessly. However, under UEFI, I get an error when calling
the connect() method of the socket - more specifically, the error 49
(EADDRNOTAVAIL). I copied the necessary files from StdLib to the EFI stick as
described in the readme.txt, however I didn't edit them as I don't need DNS
resolution. The network interface is configured and I am able to e.g. ping the
server. Does anyone have an idea what do do?
The corresponding piece of code is this:
int CEndpoint_Connect(CEndpoint* const CEndpointObj, const char* pAddress) {
int nRetry;
struct sockaddr_in addr;
if (strcmp(pAddress, BROADCAST) == 0)
return TRUE;
nRetry = MAX_RETRY;
memset((char *) &addr,0, sizeof(addr));
addr.sin_family = AF_INET;
addr.sin_port = htons(g_port);
addr.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr((char *) pAddress);
while (connect(CEndpointObj->m_nSocket, (struct sockaddr *) &addr,
sizeof(addr)) < 0) //Error happens here
{
printf("Verbindung mit Server fehlgeschlagen: errno = %d\n", errno);
if (--nRetry == 0)
return FALSE;
sleep(SLEEP_TIME);
}
CEndpointObj->m_bBroadcast = FALSE;
return TRUE;
}
With best regards,
