Hi

In our application, we have a client and a server. Client and server communicate from network with inetd services. server listens the port with fd_set and get the the string with " select " as a command line argument. everything looks fine in communication but when the client sent a string over the network and server tries the read with getline(cin,stream ), application throws a segmentation fault error.

Code:

.
.
.
struct timeval t;
t.tv_sec=60;
t.tv_usec=0;
fd_set rset;

FD_ZERO(&rset);
FD_SET(STDIN_FILENO, &rset);

if(select(2, &rset,NULL,NULL,&t) == 0)
return NULL;

getline(cin, stream); *//application crashes here*
.
.
.


How can we solve this error ?

thanks for your kindly answers.

regards
