Hi,
How do I do timeout in socket programming? For example, if the client
has got no answer in 90 seconds, it will print
a message "still waiting". How do I do this?
I have tried to use select & FD_ISSET, but it is a blocking call, so I
had to use fork with it, then when I kill this child,
it will create a zombie process on my system. Is there a better way to
do this, or how do I kill this child. I have tried
to use all the signals including SIGSTOP, SIGTERM and so on.
Thanks.
Shao.
