I'm playing with version 1.0.4 of sctp lib and I notice a behaviour which I didn't expect.

1. I init the library
2. I create a sctp instance
3. I associate and open that instance

I get this

Error Info: 16:37:45.255 - rxc_buffer instance not set !
2005-09-21 16:37:45 [10298] [2] DEBUG: SCTP[101] communication UP. Assoc=1 (status 2)
2005-09-21 16:37:45 [10298] [2] DEBUG: SCTP[101] network status change: path 0 is now ACTIVE

after that I try to send a packet.

2005-09-21 16:37:45 [10298] [2] DEBUG: SCTP[101] communication lost (status 1)
Error Info: 16:37:45.976 - sctp_send: addressed association does not exist
2005-09-21 16:37:45 [10298] [11] DEBUG: sctp_send: returns error -3 Assoc not found

the association is re established by my application

2005-09-21 16:37:45 [10298] [11] DEBUG: SCTP[101] sctp instance [1] associated and opened [193.53.0.180:8002] -> [210.50.197.60:8002]. Assoc=[2]
Error Info: 16:37:46.362 - rxc_buffer instance not set !
2005-09-21 16:37:47 [10298] [2] DEBUG: SCTP[101] communication UP. Assoc=2 (status 2)
2005-09-21 16:37:47 [10298] [2] DEBUG: SCTP[101] network status change: path 0 is now ACTIVE

so far so good. I can now communicate and send M2PA packets back and forth and upper layers come up.
Maybe first attempt, other side was not ready or so (can easily be if you debug stuff with SCTPLib as the other side might not have noticed you having shut down or such).

now I break the IP link on purpose (the bug I'm hunting in my app is a non re-establishment of a M2PA link if the IP link in between gets interrupted for a few seconds). I wouldt expect to get a communication lost error after a few seconds or so. But I get nothing. When I force a packet being sent I simply get:

Error Info: 16:46:07.277 - AF_INET : sendto()=-1 !

Am I running into a bug or did I do something wrong?
I didn't see those new error messages in sctplib1.0.3 (havn't tested the breaking of the link though).
