read system call
When i read 4 bytes from a socket the read function returns 0 value. what does it mean?
How should i know whether a message is available in the socket or not?

Read man pages on read(), the return value section. The return value of read() would be zero, stressing there were no bytes read on that stream. >How should i know whether a message is available in the socket or not? You could use select() or poll(), the choice is yours.
