A Socket Communication Method with Disconnection Restoration
Sen Su · 2005
Socket is the base of UNIX platform network programming, it provides the interprocess communication function, but, if one of the communication parts restores from malfunction, the socket connection will be disconnected and the upper application layer must reconnect explicitly to set up the socket connection again. In this paper, the disconnection exceptions of socket communication are analysed, furthermore a novel mechanism of socket communication is proposed. This method provides the disconnection tolerance for interprocess communication.
