TCP_Disconnect event

[Vishi Anand]

I am using tcp library. Wen I shut down my server, how do I know in my CVI
client app, that this has happened. I don't get tcp_disconnect event.

I haven't seen the behavior you describe; everytime I shutdown the server I get a tcp_disconnect event on the client side. Are you calling UnregisterTCPServer to shutdown the TCP server? Is the returned status negative (error)?

No, server is running on some custom hardware, so I just shut down power to
that. I want to detect that if it happens.

One option would be to create a Timer Callback function and inside this callback, call the InetPing() function to ping the server and see if it is available or not.

I have same type of setup and when power is remover, i get a TCP disconnect.

Are you doing ProcessSystemEvents or ProcessTCPevents while you wait ?
