close socket

Embedded Devices NET+OS

Hi,

I use closesocket to close a socket, it return 0, looks like success, but the socket number remains. When I try to open a new socket, it fails, return 0xfffffff.

I’m wondering is this because the old one close is not success or other reason?

Thanks

Are you calling close() or closesocket()? In NET+OS the proper routine to call is closesocket().

“but the socket number remains”?

================================
SOCKET fds = socket();
…
closesocket(fds);

Naturally fds will still have a number in it. You need to set it to INVALID_SOCKET (-1) after you call closesocket().

================================
fds = -1;

Could you please post your code so we could take a look to see where opening the new socket fails?

I use closesocket().

Another similar thing is serial port.
I use close() for it.

Do you have a socket connection with the device and you can control the GPIO?
