Re: [Dclib-devel] Dlib - server::kernel_1a_c unhandled exception

[Davis K. <dav...@us...>]

Are you declaring your server object at global scope?  Doing that might
cause this problem if you are running windows and the WSACleanup() function
gets called before the server destructs itself.  WSACleanup() basically
cleans up the winsock resources before the program ends.  It gets called
when a certain global object is destroyed (take a look at line 74 in
sockets/sockets_kernel_1.cpp).  But once it is called I would expect all the
sockets code to error out.
