FIX: The FtpGetFile function may not time out as expected when network connectivity with the FTP host is lost in Windows CE 5.0 (917549)
The information in this article applies to:
SYMPTOMSIn Microsoft Windows CE 5.0, the WinInet function FtpGetFile may not time out as expected when network connectivity with the FTP host is lost. The expected time-out period is set by providing a millisecond value for the INTERNET_OPTION_RECEIVE_TIMEOUT option type in a call to the InternetSetOption function.CAUSEThis problem occurs because WinInet functions, such as the FtpGetFile function, internally use a second thread to close the socket handle when a particular time-out period expires. When another thread closes a network socket handle, the recv function of the socket does not immediately return because of a code defect. This software update fixes this code defect.
