[Boost-users] boost asio: Probelm with closing a blocking ip::udp::socket receive

Hi, I'm using boost 1.35 on Linux. I have a thread which initiates a ip::udp::socket and has a blocking receive. When I try to terminate this thread from a different thread, in order to close the udp::socket I use the following: // m_socket is of type ip::udp::socket boost::system::error_code ec; m_socket::shutdown(boost::asio::ip::udp::socket::shutdown_receive, ec); std::cout << "error code = " << ec << std::endl; m_socket.close(); After shutdown I ALWAYS get system:107 error code - which means "Transport endpoint is not connected". Does anybody have any idea why I'm receiving such an error? Needless to say, the receive is working great - and I get the packets from the port I'm listening to. Thanks!
