Re: Example socket program to send data to a non IBM i device

Darryl,

Don't use setsockopt() this will not work.

The articles I linked to show you how to use non-blocking sockets together with the select() API to perform timeouts.  There is an example of using this with the connect() API.

The socket() API doesn't have anything to do with connecting, as Brad also said.

The problem is

If the device is online,
- I can connect to the device. The socket() is successful.
- If the device is on line but the port is not in listen mode, the program
goes into a wait/retry mode at the connect(). This takes 3.5 minutes before
returning control to the RPG program.

I tried adding the setsock() functions and trying that, but it would not
change the situation.

Darryl.

Darryl,

It may be clear in your mind what "the same problem" refers to, but its
not clear in mine. Can you explain what the problem is?

I tried the methods in your examples (thanks) but I still have the same
problem.

I tried various options from the other suggestions and neither would

work.

I may have made a mistake somewhere but have no way of knowing.

Thanks

Darryl Freinkel.
