From: drow@DarkElf.net (A Dark Elf) Subject: fork() 21 Feb 1998 16:57:21 -0800 Message-ID: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII To: gnu-win32@cygnus.com I have a problem with threading. I use fork() so my app listens for connections from a remote host, accept() it, forks, the parent loops and closes the sockfd from the child and listens again: for(;;) { if(sockfd!=(int)NULL) close(sockfd); sockfd = accept(sockfd2, (struct sockaddr *)&address, &len); if(pid=fork()) break; } Now it's telling me this error: child died before initialization.. Am I doing something wrong here ?
