Hello,
I've the following problem.
If the peer has closed its socket connection the second write to this
socket should return -1 and errno should be set to EPIPE (if SIGPIPE is
set
to be ignored). This never happens with my code. Why?
OS: Linux (Debian 2.2r3)
kernel: 2.4.4
compiler: gcc-2.95.2
c-lib: libc-2.1.3
with best regards,
Oliver
(writen() is a member function of my socket C++-class)
ssize_t
sock::writen( const void * vptr, size_t n)
{
size_t nleft;
ssize_t nwritten;
const char *ptr;
ptr = static_cast< char * >( vptr);
nleft = n;
struct sigaction new_sa;
struct sigaction old_sa;
new_sa.sa_handler = SIG_IGN;
::sigemptyset( & new_sa.sa_mask);
new_sa.sa_flags = 0;
::sigaction( SIGPIPE, & new_sa, & old_sa);
while ( nleft > 0)
{
if ( ( nwritten = ::write( m_handle, ptr, nleft) ) <=
0)
{
if ( errno == EINTR)
nwritten = 0; /* and call
write() again */
else if ( errno == EPIPE)
return EOF; /* write to
socket with no readers */
else
throw net_io_ex( ::strerror( errno),
"writen()", __FILE__); /* error */
}
nleft -= nwritten;
ptr += nwritten;
}
/* set to its previous action */
::sigaction( SIGPIPE, & old_sa, 0);
return n;
}
