From: Bryan Richardson Date: 2009-04-07T15:47:42+09:00 Subject: Socket#read raising Errno::EINTR Hello all, I've got some socket code that is causing me some headaches. I create a socket, write to it, then wait for the server to respond back. See below: @conn = TCPSocket.new(@host,@port) @conn.write(some_string) @conn.read(7) <-- I always expect the server to return 7 bytes of data back When I get to @conn.read(7), it throws an Errno::EINTR - 'Interrupted system call' exception. Anyone know what's causing this?! -- Thanks! Bryan -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
