    C has no value which represents a lack of a value. In short, this means that there is no way to check if an object does not have a value because it always does. You might need to rewrite your...

    Why is that a problem in the first place? Sockets are very lightweight in just about any OS, and if you want 1 socket for 2 things then you are not going to be using the same socket to accept still...

    a[2i] is a syntax error. 2i is a gcc extension for complex number literals. Perhaps you mean a[2*i]. And why you would wan tto do that is qutie confusing.

    It looks pretty broken to me.



    char *temp = new char;

    This allocates 1 char, not 1000000. How do you plan on putting 100000 into room for 1 char?
    Not to mention your eof check is wrong. ...

    The idioms of the various languages are fairly different. For some reason I doubt any program around today could produce any code in another language you'd actually want to use.
