Howdie,
Someone (i think it was Shachar) asked about shutdown and loosing messages -
well, I jsut came across the SO_LINGER socket options (man 7 socket) and
though it can help:
" SO_LINGER
Sets or gets the SO_LINGER option. The argument is a linger
structure.
struct linger {
int l_onoff; /* linger active */
int l_linger; /* how many seconds to linger for */
};
When enabled, a close(2) or shutdown(2) will not return until
all queued messages for the socket have been successfully sent
or the linger timeout has been reached. Otherwise, the call
returns immediately and the closing is done in the background.
When the socket is closed as part of exit(2), it always lingers
in the background.
"
Cheers,
Gilad
