Lookup for NDDS_Transport_UDPv4 errors

Where can NDDS_Transport errors be looked up to determine what they mean?

I have received the following error:

NDDS_TRANSPORT_UDPv4_receive_rEA:OS rec'v from () failure, error 0x9

I would like to know what this error means and why I might have received it - but I would also like to know where I should go to look this up, some reference in documentation?

Hi,

The UDPv4 errors in that range are coming from the underlying OS.  0x9 is EBADF and indicates a read on a closed socket -- probably.  Depends on what was happening around that point in the runtime.

Regards,

I was intentionally configuring the system with an invalid IP address (testing fault behavior) when this error was seen.  The IP address was misconfigured and the software was shutdown - the error was presented during shutdown.

Aha.  So it really was a bad file descriptor, the socket couldn't be opened in the first place.

I was hoping that it was expected due to what I was doing, but I didn't know where to look up the error.  Is there an index somewhere or is posting on this forum the best way to find out?

Google will be the answer :) 

Transport errors (effectively anthing with NDDS_TRANSPORT_<transport>) will be passing an underlying, OS specific value out to the console.  You'll need to dig into your host-os include/header files (if Unix-like) or google 'windows socket error codes'.
