detecting TCP disconnect in rtems-4.0.0

[Thomas Doerfler]

Hi,

I have a TCP/IP server application running under rtems-4.0.0. When 
the server has received a command from a client, it will be busy for 
a long time (>30 seconds). 

Now I want the server to detect, when the client disconnects during 
command execution, because in these cases the server can abort 
execution and resume to listen for a new connection.

Under BSD (and Linux), the "poll" system call would do the job, but 
it is not available unter rtems-4.0.0. Is there any other way to 
detect the connection state of a socket?

Bye,
	Thomas.
