Re: [boost] Boost ASIO - Client Request TCP Help..!!

In continuation of above original code, as send() static API worked fine, now to to set "Keep Alive Option" for the socket, I did tried as - --- int sockKeepAliveOption = 1; int n2 = setsockopt(socket.native(), SOL_SOCKET, SO_SNDTIMEO, &sockKeepAliveOption, sizeof(sockKeepAliveOption)); if(n2 == -1) std::cout << "Setsocket option Err: SO_KEEPALIVE -- unable to set keep alive tcp connection." << std::endl; else std::cout << "S0_KEEPALIVE set, with SOL_SOCKET --- Keep Alive option set." << std::endl; --- It goes to if condition of "n2 = -1", i.e unable to set keep alive tcp connection. Please suggest - How can I correct above to have "Keep Alive option set". Thanks!! On Sat, Oct 12, 2013 at 6:35 PM, Joseph Van Riper < fleeb.fantastique@gmail.com> wrote:

YES, I did tried earlier and it did worked BTW, how to know which are relative and static functions.

As you look at the Asio reference, you'll see that there are 'Free functions'. Those are going to be static functions. Anything else requires an instance of a class.

I think you could have also used:

boost::asio::write( socket, boost::asio::buffer( &pf, sizeof(pf)), ec );

if you wanted to use free functions instead of the class's .send() function.
