The Question is:
Hi,
I am porting unix code on OpenVMS V6.1. This is a client/server program. This
program uses pthread_start (decthreads), and sockets. There are 2 threads in
the proggram, which connects to the server and send/recv data.
After sending/receiveing couple of data, the recv() function just hangs. Does
not receive the data. But using UCX, I can see data in the read buffer.
What could be the problem? Why is the recv() function unable to read?
Additional Information:
I also tried with a simple sample socket program with two threads (meaning two
connection to the server). This program also hangs if I have printf()
statements after each send and receive. If I remove the printf() statements,
then it even works for upto
6 threads.
What could be the reason?
Thanks in advance,
Prem
The Answer is :
You are working with very old and now unsupported product releases.
Please port to a current version of TCP/IP Services and of OpenVMS.
As of this writing, V5.3 and V7.3 are the current releases. Also
please install the available ECO kits for TCP/IP and OpenVMS.
Note that DECthreads simulates multithreaded parallel operations
on all OpenVMS VAX releases. Parallel execution of applications based
on DECthreads across multiple processors -- based on the availability
of the OpenVMS kernel-threading interface -- is available on OpenVMS
Alpha. Not OpenVMS VAX.
