    copied!<p>I am trying to write a short program that acts like a client, like telnet. I receive from the user input like so: www.google.com 80 (the port number) and /index.html However, I get some errors. When I write some debug information, it says that I have a bad file descriptor and Read Failed on file descriptor 100 messagesize = 0. </p> <pre><code>struct hostent * pHostInfo; struct sockaddr_in Address; long nHostAddress; char pBuffer[BUFFER_SIZE]; unsigned nReadAmount; int nHostPort = atoi(port); vector&lt;char *&gt; headerLines; char buffer[MAX_MSG_SZ]; char contentType[MAX_MSG_SZ]; int hSocket = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP); if (hSocket == SOCKET_ERROR) { cout &lt;&lt; "\nCould Not Make a Socket!\n" &lt;&lt; endl; return 1; } pHostInfo = gethostbyname(strHostName); memcpy(&amp;nHostAddress,pHostInfo -&gt; h_addr, pHostInfo -&gt; h_length); Address.sin_addr.s_addr = nHostAddress; Address.sin_port=htons(nHostPort); Address.sin_family = AF_INET; if (connect(hSocket, (struct sockaddr *)&amp;Address, sizeof(Address)) == SOCKET_ERROR) { cout &lt;&lt; "Could not connect to the host!" &lt;&lt; endl; exit(1); } char get[] = "GET "; char http[] = " HTTP/1.0\r\nHost: "; char end[] = "\r\n\r\n"; strcat(get, URI); strcat(get, http); strcat(get, strHostName); strcat(get, end); strcpy(pBuffer, get); int len = strlen(pBuffer); send(hSocket, pBuffer, len, 0); nReadAmount = recv(hSocket,pBuffer, BUFFER_SIZE, 0); //Parsing of data here, then close socket if (close(hSocket) == SOCKET_ERROR) { cout &lt;&lt; "Could not close the socket!" &lt;&lt; endl; exit(1); } </code></pre> <p>Thanks! </p>
