How to keep the connection open without having to wait for getline ?

[jimver04]

Hi,

in my code I do not want to froze everything in order to wait for a getline.
If I comment the getline code as below then the connection ends although I haven't told so.

???

    bind_events();

    HIGHLIGHT("Event listeners binded :) \n")

 //    HIGHLIGHT(" - HINT: Type exit to stop HWs client")
 //    for (std::string line; std::getline(std::cin, line);) {
 //
 //         if (line == "exit")
 //         {
 //             HIGHLIGHT("Closing...")
 //
 //             client.sync_close();
 //             client.clear_con_listeners();
 //
 //             return 0;
 //         }   
 //    }
 // 	
	// return 1;

I found it. Stupid me. I had to make the client variable as a field/global variable outside the function that it is destoyed 😵‍💫
