I believe that this is incorrect. When I interrupt t7900 after the 3rd
test case, it says
fatal: protocol error: bad line length character: die
twice, suggesting that this write_in_full() actually needs to be a
packet_write(fd, "die") instead, seeing as loop() uses the packet_read()
call to read the messages.
BTW I am in the middle of trying to abstract out a "simple server" that
will allow me to back the inter-process communication by a pure Windows
solution (named pipes) instead of the Unix sockets. It turns out to be
much more difficult than I hoped: the code is really relying on Unix
sockets currently.
Will keep you posted,
Dscho
