Re: [Boost-users] [asio] : how to monitor a tcp socket

I'm not sure there exists a good portable solution for this. As for windows platforms, the following article can be useful: http://tangentsoft.net/wskfaq/newbie.html (pp. 2.12, 2.13, 2.14)

I am using asynchronous operations, but i have an issue, I'd like to trigger a *fast *client side deconnexion when the peer disappear (is reset for example) So far, the deconnexion occurs on an error on a asynchronous read operation, but this error happens like 10-12 seconds after the physical deconnexion occured. Is there a way to set the "time out" value ? Is there another way to detected that the peer vanished.
