No, they will not be.

Yes, you do need to. The connected sockets are completely independent of
the listening socket.

Is there any way to get a list connected sockets that originated from the
listening socket using the listening socket instance?

listening socket using the listening socket instance?
In .NET, not as far as I know. Typically, an application would maintain its
own list of connected sockets that are related to a specific listening
socket.
I don't think there's even any reliable way to do it outside of .NET either.
The only real connection between the listening socket and sockets connected
by that listening socket is the port number, and since one could close a
listening socket and later open a new one with the same port number, even
enumerating all your open sockets and comparing the port number doesn't
necessarily tell you that those open sockets were connected using a specific
listening socket.
IMHO, the correct thing to do is simply maintain your own list of related
sockets, so that you can perform whatever operations on them are needed as
appropriate.
Pete
Your client sockets should be closing themselfs down using your protocol.
After the client finishes last send, it should shutdown send side. After it
receives 0 from read, it can close socket as now both sides of socket are
done. You should only force a Close as a last resort if you need to force
an app down and don't care what the clients happen to be doing.
List<Socketis one way to go to keep your scoreboard. Normally, you have
some other "Client" object that maintains the state of that client - your
socket object would just be contained in that class so a List of <Client>
may be the way to go in that case.

Spent some very frustrating hours recoding to find a way of closing a server
socket, i'd not thought it would be any problem,
however, after complete failure and as a last resort, i looked at the python
wrapper module for sockets, and found that the close command doesn't actually
call the underlying close! this didn't seem right, so i added it, and my code
now works simply and as expected.

I recently noted that urllib2.urlopen(...) for http:// urls
does not make an explicit call to close the underlying
HTTPConnection socket once the data from the socket is read.
This might not be required since the garbage collector will
close & collect open sockets that are not closed, but it might
cause the system to run out of socket memory if there are
multiple threads, each opening a socket and the gc not running
in between.

Hi,
I have a gui (made in wxPython) that enables a user to connect to a server
and issue some commands. The problem occurs when i try to disconnect the
client. It exits but it doesn't return to the prompt. I have to push
Ctrl-C in order to have it exit completely. The GUI is closed though.
This is a piece of code from the main class that connects to the server
and starts a thread that handles the connection:

after opening socket, sending data then closing socket 3000 times i get

what am i doing wrong? is there some thing else i need to do to free up the

I simply want to open socket, send data, close socket and have the server
just handle one client thread to recieve connection, recieve data, and close

I've written a TCP Server, which listens on a port for an incoming

by the server. The client will send messages as necessary. After each
message the server is to send an acknowledgement back to the client. That is
the client's indicator to send the next...

Hi,
I have the following problem when I am working with sockets in C#. I do not
remember running into the same problem some while ago, when working with
sockets from C++ (using native code, not managed).
I create a server socket, and then listen on it. I then accept a new
connection from that server socket. If I now close the server socket, it
also closes the accepted connection as well, automatically. This feels
stupid.

Hi,
I am writing an app that will have a socket server to listen for and process
data from 20+ clients. These clients will send data aproximately every
400-500ms.
I was wondering if it is possible when i have established a connection with
a client to keep that connection open rather than opening and closing every
400-500ms as i'd imagine there is overhead involved in this.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
