[Gambas-user] Trouble writing to Accepted Socket stream

[Cedron Dawg]

I'm not grieving, just perplexed.

To be clear, I am running the TcpServer code in the IDE, connecting to it with Telnet.  Sending a Ctrl-X from the telnet causes the IDE to immediately terminate and disappear.  That seems like undesirable behavior to me.  No popups, nothing, just gone.  It disappears from the task bar at the bottom as well.

I would think that the Gambas IDE should stay open, waiting for other connections.

I don't see why Ctrl+C is causing you so much grief? From Wikipedia:
"In many command-line interface environments, control-C is used to abort 
the current task and regain user control. It is a special sequence which 
causes the operating system to send a signal to the active program. 
Usually the signal causes it to end, but the program may "catch" it and 
do something else, typically returning control to the user."

and

"In POSIX systems, the sequence causes the active program to receive 
SIGINT, the interruption signal. If the program does not specify how to 
handle this condition, it is terminated. Typically a program which does 
handle a SIGINT will still terminate itself, or at least terminate the 
task running inside it. "
