Yes, a broken connection is EOF but not leaving a valid file. The cheapest and very popular trick is to have the sender rename it after transmission from a temp name to the right name. If you see the name, it is good.
Some prefer a flag file to say implicitly that it is OK, or send a length or cksum, md5 output for comparison.
If the sender is not cooperating, you can tell that the local writer closed with UNIX 'fuser'.
If the file has structure, that can tell you it is complete, like a trailer or XML element.
It's the kind of question that sells NDM (now an IBM product) and such.

NAME
XML::Grove::AsCanonXML - output XML objects in canonical XML
SYNOPSIS
use XML::Grove::AsCanonXML;
# Using as_canon_xml method on XML::Grove objects:
$string = $xml_object->as_canon_xml( OPTIONS );
# Using an XML::Grove::AsCanonXML instance:
$writer = XML::Grove::AsCanonXML->new( OPTIONS );
$string = $writer->as_canon_xml($xml_object);
$writer->as_canon_xml($xml_object, $file_handle);
DESCRIPTION
"XML::Grove::AsCanonXML" will return a string or write a stream of canonical XML for an XML object and it's content (if any).
"XML::Grove::AsCanonXML" objects hold the options used for writing the XML objects. Options can be supplied when the the object is
created,
$writer = XML::Grove::AsCanonXML->new( Comments => 1 );
or modified at any time before writing an XML object by setting the option directly in the `$writer' hash.
OPTIONS

By default comments are not written to the output. Setting comment to TRUE will include comments in the output.
