I'm needing the ability to shutdown(fd, 1) on a bufferevent managed socket [created with bufferevent_socket_new() and bufferevent_socket_connect()] as part of my protocol. The flow of which looks somethign like this:
Client opens connection to server Client sends data. Client closes the sending side of the socket to indicate EOF. Server sees EOF and closes the receive side of the socket Client For my first pass at this client, I'm using a bufferevent, but without an obvious way to send a EOF, it seems like I'm stuck. It appears that at some point in the future, bufferevent_flush(..., EV_WRITE, BEV_FINISHED) may provide what I'm looking for, but its not yet implemented. Anyone have any suggestions? I could switch to managing my own socket I/O if I need to, perhaps someone could provide an example just using straight events. Thanks in advance! *********************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to majord...@freehaven.net with unsubscribe libevent-users in the body.
