TCP client - server question

Hi All,

I do not know how to check if my program (TCP client written in C) is still connected to the TCP server running on a other machine. In other words if server is still running. In my situation server does not send any "keep alive" messages. For example NETSTAT utility shows column named (state). Which function can I use to get state of the connection?

Many thanks.
