[erlang-questions] problem with pread,recursrsive func

[Bengt Kleberg]

Greetings,

If it is ok with you I will interpret your statement about flushing
buffer to mean force garbage collect. If that is what you want to do,
please try to add:
erlang:garbage_collect()
after sending to UDP, before the call to read/2 


If you want more help it would be nice if you could send more of the
real code. Not all of it, of course.
