In one thread I am waiting for data in recv () call.
What kind of thread ? pthreads ? fork() ?
Form other thread due to some reason I close socket on which recv () is waiting.
But recv () is not coming back from call.
I don't about pthreads, but a fork() will replicate the fds. So each thread has its own copy of socket fd.
Try this for fun :
sock = accept() pid = fork() if (pid) recv(sock) else recv(sock)
Send some data to this socket. Check whether the parent process receives it or the child process.
What should I do so that as soon as I close socket recv () will give error or come back from blocking state.
Some form of IPC ?
