d'oh. I'd ass-u-me d that it blocked for the full length of the read. I just hacked in this for the read subroutine...
my $total_bytes_to_read; sysread $sock, $total_bytes_to_read, 20; my $total_bytes_read = 0; my $read_string = ''; while ($total_bytes_read < $total_bytes_to_read) { my $buffer; my $bytes_read = sysread $sock, $buffer, ($total_bytes_to_read + - $total_bytes_read); $total_bytes_read += $bytes_read; $read_string .= $buffer; } $total_bytes_to_read == $total_bytes_read or die("Tried to read $total_bytes_to_read bits but only got $to +tal_bytes_read bits\n"); return $read_string;
and have been unable to reproduce the error. Thank you! ++

PS: I will abstract the loop, as I realise the other sysread here could suffer the same problem

Update: Just seen your code. I shall be nicking that :)

Update2: Worked a treat with an extra curly bracket and two semi-colons :)

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
