g++ -o http http.cpp -lsocket++ g++ -o http_2 http_2.cpp -lsocket++ g++ -o http_epoll http_epoll.cpp -lsocket++

everything compiles with no warnings or errors. The http and http_2 programs run fine. However, the http_epoll application runs and terminates with the following output:

$ ./http_epoll terminate called after throwing an instance of 'char const*' Aborted

Test environment:

I tried compiling with g++ v5 but got the same result.

I can't reproduce this, unfortunately. The thrown "const char*" is unfortunate; if you look at the source code it becomes clear that epoll didn't return a ready socket. So for some reason the epoll wait returns without a ready socket -- there can be many reasons for this, I'd recommend using strace to investigate a bit more.

When it works, it looks like this:

socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP) = 4
connect(4, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(80), sin_addr=inet_addr("139.162.166.18")}, 16) = 0
write(4, "GET / HTTP/1.1\n", 15)        = 15
write(4, "Host: spheniscida.de\n\n", 22) = 22
shutdown(4, SHUT_WR)                    = 0
epoll_ctl(3, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, 4, {events=EPOLLIN, data={u32=3047235328, u64=140736240623360}}) = 0
epoll_wait(3, [{events=EPOLLIN, data={u32=3047235328, u64=140736240623360}}], 128, -1) = 1
read(4, "HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\nServer: nginx/1"..., 2000) = 311

Thanks for the reply. I have decided on using another socket library that is working with my project.
