Re: Distributed Objects pitfalls and strategies (SOLUTION (?))

The key here is to set the SO_REUSEADDR and *not* the SO_REUSEPORT option. This is what was killing me before. I found other references suggesting SO_REUSEPORT, but apparently they are wrong. I tried SO_REUSEADDR on a whim.

In case it might be useful for anyone else, I subsequently saw the comment in my example:

/*
By default the system does not reuse sockets. This leads to a problem if the service
is stopped and started quickly in succession. Although the socket is closed when the
service is stopped, the socket remains "in use" and by default cannot be reopened.
The following line allows the socket to be reused.
See: "UNIX Network Programming", W. Richard Stevens, p312-320
*/
int value = 1;
setsockopt(fdForListening, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, &value, sizeof(int));


Sorry for not thinking about that before. Amazing what you write and then completely forget about...
