RE: Socket Descriptor Error

Mark,

Do you do a connect before you try to send? If so, do you check for errors on 
the connect?

I suggest writing a complimentary program to emulate whatever the host at the 
outside vendor will do, and work out the bugs with your two programs talking to 
each other. Then, once you have it all working you can point it at the vendor 
and see what happens.

subject: Socket Descriptor Error

I am working on a project where I connect to an outside vendor using 
sockets.  I am getting a EBADF - "Descriptor not valid" error when I try 
to do a send.  The code that I am using works in other programs.  I 
verified that the socket descriptor is consistent in my program. I am not 
sure what else to check.  Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks.
