Hi, Thanks for the reply. Yes I do understand that Handle won't be valid after script exit.

I doing this because, I am sending large amount of data on multiple sockets. So, I want to check everytime before sending the data that whether the socket is still active or not. If it is not active then I create a new thread which calls function putinBadFile with argument as port number. This function takes this port number, search in a file and removes it from there. (This is the same file in which I have stored entries during connection i.e. activeConnection file) This thread will now add this port number to a badFile and try to restablish connection with it. If it is successful, then it will remove this port number from badFile and once again add new sockethandle along with port number in activeConnections file.

Now, my main thread, which is sending data, after particular time, checks if the file with active connections is updated. If yes, then reload the array of active socket handles else continue sending data to current active ports.

Please let me know, if this clears up my question a little bit. Thanks
