digitalmars.D.learn - Socket: The connection was reset

reply Nrgyzer <nrgyzer gmail.com> writes:
Hi guys,

I wrote the following few lines:

private {

	import std.socket;

}

void main() {

	Socket s = new TcpSocket();
	s.bind(new InternetAddress(80));
	s.listen(0);

	while(true) {

		Socket cs = s.accept();
		cs.sendTo("HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\nContent-Length: 11\r\n\r\nHello World");
		cs.close();

	}

	s.close();

}

The code compiles successfully and I also the server also responses with "Hello
World", but when I reload the page I sometimes get the following error
(Firefox): "The
connection was reset" - I also often get the same error in other browsers. Is
there anything wrong with the code?

Thanks in advance!

Works perfectly, thanks :)
But... how can I read the complete HTTP-header? When I try the following:

	string header;
	ubyte[1024] buffer;
	while (cs.receive(buffer)) header ~= buffer;

... it works as long as the header doesn't have a length like 1024, 2048,
3072... Otherwise cs.receive() blocks forever and the server doesn't respond
anything. Is there any solution how to prevent/solve this problem?

nrgyzer,
please check the return value of 'receive'.

Yep, thanks... but I already checked out the return value and the problem is
"If the socket is blocking, receive waits until there is data to be received.".
The following
socket blocks and the server doesn't respond:

while(true) {

	Socket cs = s.accept();
	ubyte[] header;
	ubyte[1] buffer;
	while (cs.receive(buffer)) header ~= buffer;

	cs.sendTo("HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\nContent-Length: 11\r\n\r\nHello World");
	cs.close();

}

cs.receive() blocks (because no more data is available) - cs.sendTo() and
cs.close() isn't called, because cs.receive() waits for more data. I can solve
the problem by using
non-blocking sockets:

while(true) {

	Socket cs = s.accept();
	cs.blocking(false);
	ubyte[] header;
	ubyte[1] buffer;
	while (cs.receive(buffer)) header ~= buffer;

	cs.sendTo("HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\nContent-Length: 11\r\n\r\nHello World");
	cs.close();

}

But... how can I make sure that I got all data sent by the client/browser?

It depends on the protocol. In HTTP you should check if the receive buffer contains CRLF CRLF: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertext_Transfer_Protocol#Example_session
