I'm not sure if this will help him. He told that the program doesn't 
raise an exception. I suppose this also means that socket.send() was 
successful. If his program does not want to send or receive anything 
else, then he will not get an exception. Otherwise if socket.send() 
blocks his program, then you are right - he needs to wait. But I think 
he would have seen that his program is still running, and he would not 
have written what he wrote. If his program is still running, than he 
shouldn't have told "it did not raise an exception". :-)
