I am trying to learn about socket programming, so I am creating a simple web server that receives connections and sends the requested file. I have a start to the code, and this code works fine when built and ran on a true linux machine. However, I have been having trouble getting it to work in Cygwin.
The error occurs in the following lines of code: if ((s_curr = accept(s, (struct sockaddr *) &pin, &addrlen)) == -1) { printf("ERROR: accept\n"); } printf("Connection Received\n"); The accept() command is not blocking, so as soon as I attempt to start the web server, it immediately returns the ERROR message. Like I said, this code works fine on a true linux machine, so I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions as to why Cygwin is not blocking for this accept call.
