Data exchange with QT5 .5 and i get a question.
how can the server know that the client has closed the connection?

Here is a good video series to get you started with understanding how networking works.

I'm starting out with networking myself, so will be listening in to the responses :).

Assuming your server is implemented with QTcpServer, every time a new client connects your code should call QTcpServer::nextPendingConnection() to obtain a QTcpSocket through which to communicate with the client. When the client disconnects, the QTcpSocket first emits error(QAbstractSocket::RemoteHostClosedError), then disconnected(). All you have to do is connect those signals to slots that handle the situation.

The socket has a disconnected() signal.
