Serious Bug in TCPStream & solution.

[Andrey Kulikov]

Hi All.

I have found bug in ost::TCPStream. (version 1.2.3, current CVS
version is not available for me).

I'm using TCPStream for geting web-pages from web server.
This bug produce uncompleted page retrieval, or application crash.
The error is in error-handling while end of data detected.

Attached example demonstated this error.
Test 1 showing incomplete text receiving. (ending </html> never
appears)
Test 2 showing application crach due to exception.

========= socket.cpp ==================
L1819        if(rlen < 1)
        {
//              clear(ios::failbit | rdstate());
                if(rlen < 0)
                     error(errNotConnected,"Connection error",socket_errno);
                else
                {
L1826                        error(errInput,"Could not read from 
socket",socket_errno);
                        clear(ios::failbit | rdstate());
                }
                return EOF;
L1830        }
=======================================

For propely working line 1826 shuld be commented (or removed).
