network question

[Gert Scholten <gs2 dds nl>]

Hello, I had a question.

I'm programming a network application, which uses gtk_input_add to assing
a function to the `read'ability of a INET stream.
The problem comes here: How do I detect if the other side has closed the
connection? I can't just read(),and check for it to return 0, because
read() will wait for data. And my function isn't called if there isn't any
data to read (which is logical, the connection was closed)

How do I solve this problem ???
