Hi,

I have a program that runs daily, and gathers Level1 Data.
What is happening is that the program encounters
errors and then shuts down prematurely.

(I turned on Logging to see what is going on).
This is the last bit of the file:

TO CLIENT L1Error 768 1 2019-10-03 19:00:00 Encountered WSAEWOULDBLOCK while sending to client java.exe. Queuing 44646737 bytes. First 6

What is going on? And how can I avoid this error?

Thanks for any help.

I will review this log and let you know my findings. We may want to get a more complete log from you as well.

WSAEWOULDBLOCK is a windows socket error code. It means that IQConnect tried to send data to your application, but there was no space left on the socket buffer to receive it. When this happens, IQFeed queues any further data until that data can be delivered, or the app disconnects. The next two lines indicate that this happened (the socket closed and the app disconnected). The remaining lines describe IQConnect/IQFeed shutting down. This is all normal behavior.

So the underlying problem is that the socket buffer is filling, meaning that data is coming in faster than the program is processing it.

Thanks Gary for inspecting the log file, and determining
the cause of the error. I will have to rewrite
the program to prevent that.

Thanks again for your response.
