Sockets

[John Smith]

How do I check to see if my Socket Connection State is still open or not?
Is there a way that I can get the status of the current state of the Socket
Connection?

You cant - its part of TCP design. The only way to check a socket is to try to read or write from it.

You can use Socket.IsConnected property to fin whether the socket is
connected or closed.
