Interesting point. I'm not sure if it works that way though. I *think* I
tried sending an empty string from the server back to the client, and as
expected it exited the loop and closed the client, which doesn't make sense
to me, since an empty string could be perfectly valid return data.
Okay... I suppose socket could consider a transmission with 0 data
bytes as valid "data". The main key is that there had to be send of 0
data -- opposed to just not receiving anything..
No, I think you're right. I read elsewhere that when I send() call
returns 0 bytes, the connection is automatically closed.
