To reiterate, TCP takes a while to detect and close broken connections because that is what it is designed to do, because it's a stream socket with best-effort delivery. If you don't want that behavior, don't use a stream socket with best-effort delivery. UDP would be more appropriate. You could also use ICMP -- that is, ping.

NAME
socket.h -
Network addresses and sockets related classes.
SYNOPSIS
#include <cc++/address.h>
Classes
class ost::Socket
The Socket is used as the base for all Internet protocol services under Common C++.
class ost::DCCPSocket
DCCP sockets are used for stream based connected sessions between two sockets.
class ost::UDPSocket
UDP sockets implement the TCP SOCK_DGRAM UDP protocol.
class ost::UDPBroadcast
Representing a UDP socket used for subnet broadcasts, this class provides an alternate binding and setPeer() capability for UDP
sockets.
class ost::UDPTransmit
Representing half of a two-way UDP connection, the UDP transmitter can broadcast data to another selected peer host or to an entire
subnet.
class ost::UDPReceive
Representing half of a two-way UDP connection, the UDP receiver can receive data from another peer host or subnet.
class ost::UDPDuplex
UDP duplex connections impliment a bi-directional point-to-point UDP session between two peer hosts.
class ost::TCPSocket
TCP sockets are used for stream based connected sessions between two sockets.
class ost::TCPV6Socket
TCPV6 sockets are used for stream based connected sessions between two ipv6 sockets.
class ost::TCPStream
TCP streams are used to represent TCP client connections to a server by TCP protocol servers for accepting client connections.
class ost::TCPSession
The TCP session is used to primarily to represent a client connection that can be managed on a separate thread.
class ost::SimpleTCPStream
Simple TCP Stream, to be used with Common C++ Library.
