Re: [twsocket] Refusing client connection
I built a server program, and a few clients. Each client has a specific scope and uses some of the server features. On of the client software has the ability to restart the server. That's where the problem begins. While the server is shutting down, I must broadcast a shutdown to all connected client softwares so they can close gracefully. But, during this process, I don't want any new connection to be made. How would be the best way to deal with this? Very simple: close the listening socket. This will prohibe any new connection but will in no way break existing connections. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] The author of the freeware multi-tier middleware MidWare The author of the freeware Internet Component Suite (ICS) http://www.overbyte.be -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be
