Way is Connect giving me a error 78 when running inside a new process?
it works fine when running from main.

I think this comes from the fact you cannot "share" bsdsocket data from one process to another. The Process that creates the socket is the only one able to work on that socket.

This is mentioned in the autodoc IIRC.

In your code I can't see where you are opening bsdsocket.library and obtaining its interface. You quoted some threading code so despite your other code does not seem to use it I assume you do in your actual program, so this may be your problem, and even then remember sockets are *not* shareable across processes by default, you'll need to either write a socket server either enable the sharing functionnality in bsdsocket (see Autodocs). Also remember that each process *must* open/close its own libraries/interfaces.

as you see in "my Code", the Socket is created at the first line before connecting, it is not shared.

I think, I should condense the code more, to make it easier to understand.

yes the ISocket Interface is created, in the main program, but then, the thread does Obtain() the ISocket before use.

int32 ThreadStart_process(STRPTR args, int32 length,APTR execbase)
    {
        Thread *self;
        Timer time;
        int cnt = 0;
        int Seconds = 0;

        sscanf(args, "%08x", &self);

        if (ISocket) ISocket -> Obtain();

        self -> _ThreadStart -> func();

        if (ISocket) ISocket -> Release();

        self -> IsAlive = false;
    }

bsdsocket.library must be opened seperatly for each process. So even if your socket isn't shared your libraray base and interface is and mustn't be.

No you need to open bsdsocket.library and GetInterface() in each thread. Except for rare exceptions Obtain() and Release() are called internally by GetInterface() and DropInteface() they shouldn't be called by program code.

It's working now thanks everyone.

Problem where solved by moving OpenLibrary() and GetInterface() into class Socket.

Now there are some problems but I think this are of my own making, Excellent.

No you need to open bsdsocket.library and GetInterface() in each thread. Except for rare exceptions Obtain() and Release() are called internally by GetInterface() and DropInteface() they shouldn't be called by program code.
You can call Obtain()/Release() directly, see exec GetInterface() autodoc for an example with threads.

Even if RoadShow would store it's per process data in ISocket instead of SocketBase, which isn't the case, using ISocket->Obtain() wouldn't have worked since that just increases the usage count.
For libraries with per process data in the interface you have to use something like thread_IFoobar = global_IFoobar->Clone() instead.

and even then remember sockets are *not* shareable across processes by default, you'll need to either write a socket server either enable the sharing functionnality in bsdsocket (see Autodocs). Also remember that each process *must* open/close its own libraries/interfaces.


Thank you, the sharing functionality was not clear from reading the Autodocs but I figured it out in the end. The problem whit Autodocs here was that did not explain, that I need bout command, and it did not explain where to use what command.

It was a bit of try and fail, and try again, and then it worked.

As the socket object, has to have the right interfaces, so functions can be called from the object, I created method to set it. This was the perfect place to hide orbiting the socket.

When my Ami C++ Class Framework is ready it will be shared, the Framework will make it easier to port code between AmigaOS and Windows for cross platform applications.

It's explained in OpenLibrary() and SocketBaseTags()

I used RelaseCopySocket() and ObtainSocket(), this worked whit some hazel.

This what I found other people where using when googling around.

Is there some working example of how to use SocketBaseTags(), it looks like a bit of a monster, and I'm a slow reader.

I'm really not sure you should those two functions as they seem to make the sockets public. That could result in another program using your socket! (unless I missunderstand the meaning of public in this context).

I'm not 100% of the usage of SocketbaseTags() in this cobnteaxt as I only ever worked with the open SocketBase for each process approach (which is the recomended approach) but I think you'd open the library and then call

ISocket->SocketBaseTags(SBTM_SETVAL(SBTC_CAN_SHARE_LIBRARY_BASES),1L,TAG_END);

before using the socket API.

yes they become public, and gets a unique id, unless there are other programs that know about uniqueid they can not obtain it.

For a process to use a File Descriptor it has to be in the Process File Descriptor list, so before its obtained no one can use it.

This how I understand how it works.

Quote:
ISocket->SocketBaseTags(SBTM_SETVAL(SBTC_CAN_SHARE_LIBRARY_BASES),1L,TAG_END);


That will most likely only solve Library base / interface problem.
But as File Descriptor as liked to one process or the other, it probeable want solve that issue.

Sorry you slightly confused me (maybe more than slightly :-0)
we were talking about Sockets? Where did the file descriptors come from? File descriptors and sockets are not related unless you live in the loonixverse.

What kind of file descriptor? DOS? Unless I'm mistaken you can write a DOS filehandle from any process. Or newlib ? In that case you must make sure all subprocesses are started with NP_Child, then you can share them.

its in the name socketfd = socket file descriptor.
it's inheritance a socket, really is file descriptor, but you don't think about it that way.

The bsdsocket.library sockets aren't stored in a process specific structure but in the SocketBase, but you can't use them from a process other than the one which called IExec->OpenLibrary("bsdsocket.library", ...), unless you enable SocketBase sharing with SBTC_CAN_SHARE_LIBRARY_BASES.

Well maybe but look at this error:

EMFILE
The per-process descriptor table is full.

To me it sound like its process file table, and its says porcess.
you know the ins and outs, I know what I read.

So is the documentation wrong?

There is also number of references to fd (file descriptor), not sd (socket descriptor), in the autodocs. Maybe I live in the loonixverse, but I know who put me there.

bsdsocket.library/ObtainSocket                 bsdsocket.library/ObtainSocket

   NAME
    ObtainSocket - acquire a socket from the public list

   SYNOPSIS
    socket = ObtainSocket(id, domain, type, protocol)
      D0                  D0     D1    D2      D3

    long ObtainSocket(long id, long domain, long type, long protocol);

   FUNCTION
    This function is for passing control of a socket from one process
    to another. The socket to be handed over must be identified by
    an ID, a domain, type and protocol number.

   RESULT
    A -1 is returned if an error occurs, otherwise the return value is a
    descriptor referencing the socket.

   ERRORS
    The ObtainSocket() call fails if:

    [EBADF]
        No socket with the given Id could be found.

    [EPROTONOSUPPORT]
        The protocol type or the specified protocol is not
        supported within this domain.

    [EMFILE]
        The per-process descriptor table is full.

    [ENFILE]
        The system file table is full.

    [EACCESS]
        Permission to create a socket of the specified type
        and/or protocol is denied.

    [ENOBUFS]
        Insufficient buffer space is available.  The socket
        cannot be created until sufficient resources are
        freed.

Partially, it seems it just wasn't updated when SocketBase sharing was added, before it was added to RoadShow each process had to open it's own SocketBase and the only way to use sockets in different processes was to move a socket from one SocketBase to another one using ReleaseSocket() (removes it from the SocketBase used by the current process, usually the parent process) + ObtainSocket() (adds it to the SocketBase used by the current process, usually a child process of the one which released the socket).

Quote:

Some of the docs were probably taken directly from the docs of the BSD4.3 TCP/IP stack on which RoadShow is based without changes, on Unix (and in the AmigaOS C library functions) there is no difference between file and socket descriptors.
The error defines can't be changed, for example from EMFILE to EMSOCKET, or it would be incompatible to other systems.
