Is socket connected?

How to determine in an asynchronous manner that a socket is still connected or not?

I would like to have such a function:
bool isSocketConnected(int sid); // nonblocking function

Where should I look at to find that the connection were closed by peer.
I tried with select(), getsockopt( SO_ERROR ) , but I was not really successful.

Any idea?

We are having the same problem here. Did you ever find a solution?
