c ++ winsock recv在接收0数据时终止线程而不是返回错误代码

Question

A valid socket connection is already established to a server. There's a simple loop designed to continue receiving data until the server stops sending any more. All the documentation indicates that trying recv() too many times should just cause it to return 0 or -1 (depending on the situation). Instead it's killing the thread with some sort of IOError (at the line with the recv call). What am I missing?

Edit: sad is just some stringstream. I promise it has nothing to do with the problem :D

Another Edit: included errno.h and checked for errno codes, to no avail.

do {            
    memset(buffer,0,sizeof(buffer));
    bytes = recv(s,buffer,sizeof(buffer)-40,0);
    sad << buffer;
    Sleep(1);
} while (bytes>0);

Perhaps you should also check errno , since there might be a permature end to the communication channel.

#include <errno.h>
#include <string.h>

do {            
    memset(buffer,0,sizeof(buffer));
    bytes = recv(s,buffer,sizeof(buffer)-40,0);
    if (errno)
       break;
    sad << buffer;
    Sleep(1);
} while (bytes>0);

if (errno)
   std::cerr << "Premature end of connection: " << strerror(errno) << '\n';
