Non blocking socket send

[yaron]

Hi all,

under heavy load i get a SocketException when calling socket.Send method on
non blocking socket with error code 10035 WSAEWOULDBLOCK.

my question is , how do i know the number of bytes that was successfully
send (though there was an exception) so i will not have to send the whole
buffer again ?

Thanks.

There were no bytes sent as this error indicates that whole operation cannot be completed.

From docs on WSAWOULDBLOCK
"
This error is returned from operations on nonblocking sockets that cannot be completed immediately, for example recv when no data is queued to be read from the socket. It is a nonfatal error, and the operation should be retried later. It is normal for WSAEWOULDBLOCK to be reported as the result from calling connect on a nonblocking SOCK_STREAM socket, since some time must elapse for the connection to be established.
"

So, all you have to do is to retry the send operation.
