in order of quoting:
a) it probably helps him :)
and
b) The option not supported by protocal means that your OS
has a different structure for LINGER than a normal** OS does.
for your specific OS locate your socket.h file and check to see
the SO_ types that you have.. also I would check to see what
protocol family you are using... AF_INET, PF_INET? make sure that
you have the family chosen correctly, in stock ROM I think the
type to use is AF_INET..
The error that you have shown above you should never get. I dont
know about your version of rom, but in mine (cross-platform win Win32)
I have the following bit of code, which checks to see if SO_DONTLINGER
exists, in my init_socket() function:
#if defined( SO_DONTLINGER ) && !defined( SYSV )
{
struct linger ld;
ld.l_onoff = 1;
ld.l_linger = 1000;
if ( setsockopt( fd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_DONTLINGER,
(char *) &ld, sizeof( ld ) ) < 0 )
{
logf( "Init_socket: SO_DONTLINGER %s", strerror(errno));
#if !defined( WIN32 )
close( fd );
#else
closesocket( fd );
#endif
exit( 1 );
}
}
#endif
Once again, I dont know if stock rom has this bit of code, if not
try the list for someone with a more thorough understanding of
sockets in SunOS..
Good Luck,
