I do this with dummy reading from the input stream (I often have
server-sends-only scenarios, but you should be able to integrate this
into a normal read scenario, too). If read returns <0, the connection
dropped. In that case, I go out of the while loop, close the connection.
done.

I did that in C in a daemon I wrote for my linux system and also did
that today in Java for the TINI.

Cheers,
Manuel
