[erlang-questions] Problems in erl_accept

[J Bhanot]

thanks Gleb...

I had to publish my C node and then it was being shown in Erlang node by 
executing this command:

nodes(hidden).

but now when i want it to accept connection - I have added following 
code..

memset((char *) &remote, 0, sizeof(remote));
if(erl_accept(sockfd, &remote) == ERL_ERROR)
erl_err_sys("accept");


where remote is declared at the top as

ErlConnect remote;

and sockfd is the same socket which I have used in connecting to Erlang 
node, binding/listening and have made this port as non blocking as well

but now when I execute code for C node..

I am getting following error:

accept: Bad file descriptor

Any ideas on that..

Regards,
jb

Re: [erlang-questions] Erlang C Communication - process completes but

Hello.

This is my first post to this list, so i'm sorry for any mistakes :)

IIRC, C nodes are hidden nodes, hence net_adm:world() will not show
them. Use nodes(hidden). to list hidden nodes.
