socket.Connected only gives the last access result but not the current
status of the socket.

What is the best way to determine if a socket is still connected?
Because I want to cancel all my "output" in the client if the socket is
not connected.

What is the best way to determine if a socket is still active on the
server side? When I close my server clients will still do their jobs
and I don't want that to happen.

Thanks for any reply,
Nuno Magalhaes.
 
You can always try to receive or send something, in 'try' block. No
matter what happend - .connected property is filled, right after.
Then only catch an exception and you are home.
