hai, We have a socket application in C which connects to a Java application through TCP sockets. We use read() system call to read from the socket. The Java application sends more than 20000 bytes of data sometimes. In the C program, we read those bytes as Type,Length,Value fields where a separate read() call is used for each field. This sometimes creates a data corruption while it works other times. We observe that the first 16384 bytes get read properly. Extra byte or bytes get added in the 16385 th location and this shifts the bytes from 16385 onwards. Because of this our C program gets confused and we are forced to reopen the socket. This is not predictable. Suddenly this problem occurs. Is this an already known issue and if so what is it? How to solve it? We are running both the applications in the same machine which runs Red Hat Linux release 7.2 and its kernel version is 2.4.7-10 - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
