I am a little bit confused in a socket example through select()
Hi, I am a newbie about network programming. All codes come from this book: UNIX Network Programming Volume 1, Third Edition.
It is a TCP server by use select()
Please focus on the highlighted section, There are Read(), Writen() functions, the context of them are shown below:
Why the TCP server once received a read error [the Read() function has exit()], then exit the program? It will happen when a client is sending data and shutdown abnormally.
The same problem with writen().
Is it possible to change the codes like this? Then any disadvantage about modified codes?
Thank you for your help!
