Why socket reads 0 bytes when more was available

Question

I discovered that the following code loops with 100% CPU usage:

byte[] buffer = new byte[0x10000];
while (true) {
    if (socket.Poll (5000000, SelectMode.Se         


        

Answer 1

Have you read the documentation?

0 bytes read means that the remote end point have disconnected.

Either use blocking sockets or use the asynchronous methods like BeginReceive(). There is no need for Poll in .Net.
