Thread: Assertion Failure

Hey, im working on this code, and I keep getting an assertion failure.

ws_fdr= fdopen(ws_sockfd,"r");
ws_fdw= fdopen(ws_sockfd,"w");

if you are wondering, ws_sockfd is an integer and equale to 1896 after going through this if statement:

if ( (ws_sockfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0)) < 0)
err(WARN,"Wave_Server: socket connect error\n");

please help.

I Get a debug assertion failure when the program is trying to execute either of the following statements:

ws_fdr= fdopen(ws_sockfd,"r");
ws_fdw= fdopen(ws_sockfd,"w");

I have posted the code to the FUNCTION on this website, so I'll send you the link. The error occurs in between the lines of 90 and 100. You'll see it because its numbered in the side, so you'll know what line you are on. It's the same code. Anyways, heres the site, I hope someone can help me.

I'm using MS Visual C++ 6.0. This code actually works on UNIX, and I am attempting to change this into a Windows program. I'm coding it in C. I have now posted the entire code on this website, and the errors are now between 00630 and 00640.

Heres the site to see my code:

Please help.
Thanks :-)

In Windows, a socket is not a file descriptor. To get a file descriptor from a socket you can use _open_osfhandle(). You must call _close() on the resulting file descriptor and closesocket() on the original socket when you are done.

Can you give me an example with the code I have, because I'm kind of puzzled on how to do that.

Thanks

Code:

  /* Get a file descriptor for the socket. */
  int fd_rd = _open_osfhandle(ws_sockfd, _O_RDONLY);

  /* Error handling */
  if (fd_rd == -1) exit(-1);

  /* Get a stream for the file descriptor. */
  ws_fdr = fdopen(fd_rd,"r");

and cleanup:

Code:

/* Close stream */
fclose(ws_fdr);

/* Close file descriptor */
_close(fd_rd);

/* Close socket */
closesocket(ws_sockfd);
