12/31 When my program binds a socket to a port but dies due to an error, how do I "unbind" the socket so I can run the program again without getting "Address already in use"? Thanks. \_ Man setsockopt, and look at SO_REUSEADDR \_ You will probably need something like this: int setReuseAddr(int listenfd) { int on = 1, ret = 0; if (setsockopt(listenfd,SOL_SOCKET,SO_REUSEADDR, (void *)&on,sizeof(on)) < 0) { close(listenfd); ret = -1; } return ret; } |
