I am looking for help concerning a problem we have discovered with Vxworks implementation of TCP sockets. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Apparently when a Vxworks task terminates without explicitly closing the socket,
subsequent reads and writes to that socket by another task do not fail like they do under Unix. It appears that Vxworks does not realize that the task using the socket has terminated.
Has anyone encountered this or similar problems, and if so how do you handle it.
