Folks, Since a week, I am having serious problems with the GnuTLS library concerning the gnutls_bye():
I am writing a binding between gnutls and ObjFW (https://www.webkeks.org/objfw) => https://webkeks.org/hg/objgnutls/ When an attempt to reading from the socket failed, and results in a closed socket (because of a malicious client, or lost network connection, etc), the close method of the object gets called. This method then will call gnutls_bye, socket close and gnutls_deinit. There is the problem. Gnutls_bye sends data. When the socket is broken, and gnutls_bye is called, my program DIES: SIGPIPE. I am very disappointed about this. Catching signals in a library is not-done. Is there a way to get proper error handling done in this case? Else, I will send this mail to the development mailing list for adding support for sane error handling. With kind regards, Jos _______________________________________________ Help-gnutls mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnutls
