It is definitely something wrong with my code, here is the thread which does the listening:
http://mitek.id.au/flex/DBListener.cpp
The rest of application is fairly big and does not relate to the database.
For libpq calls I am using the SPTK (http://sptk.net) library. I've added additional wrappers for PGsocket, PQfreemem.
So the current code works without any problem, but as soon as I remove subcribe() function from the loop and call it just once, daemon eventually will stop getting notifications.
There is nothing wrong with the socket or db connections - all possible error will be logged.
Cheers,
Dmitri.

Hi everybody,I've got a weird problem with LISTEN/NOTIFY.My C++ app subscribes for the notifications, just like in libpq examples:The only difference, that I am setting the timeout on select just to check if application wants to exit.//open session//subscribewhile(!exit){sock = PGsocket(conn)res = select(sock);if (res)//check if it timeout//or if there was a notification}The problem that I am facing is that after some time notifications stop coming.select() returns on timeout and nothing else.Just as a test a included UNLISTEN/LISTEN sequence into the loop, so after timeout or event application re-subscribes. And this helps.The question is, what I am doing wrong with the code in the first place?Any help is appreciated.Cheers,Dmitri.
