Re^4: Socket recv?

The SIP is a TLA for the server name not the SIP protocol!!

I am using strict in my code, I should have posted that too.

What do you mean checking return values, I thought that is what I am doing print the recv value?

And I am not sure what you mean by closing the socket. I am not closing the socket, as far as I can see!

The return values are different from the values the parameters are set to. For example, if you look here, you will see that `$socket->send ("example"\n");` [download] really should be: `my $retval = $socket->send("example\n"); # make sure $retval is defined, and contains the length of the strin +g` [download] ditto for the recv call. As for closing the socket, I understand that you are not closing it, but there are 2 sides to every connection :).	[reply] [d/l] [select]

As for closing the socket, I understand that *you* are not closing it, but there are 2 sides to every connection :).
