If you are experiencing an issue please mention the full platform your issue applies to:
IDE: NetBeans/Eclipse/IDEA NetBeans 8.2
Desktop OS Windows 10
Simulator 3.7
Device IPhone 6 Plus

I have tested on Android and IOS
import ca.weblite.codename1.net.Socket;
try{
            ServerCommsKeepAliveSocket = new Socket(inc.host.getText(), inc.ServerCommsKeepAliveSocketPort, inc.socketTimeOut);
            ServerCommsKeepAliveSocket.close();
// Server is reachable
}catch(Exception e) {
   //  Server Is Not Reachable
}

Andorid works where as IOS causes a permenant lock.
The App is stuck and will not return from the "ServerCommsKeepAliveSocket = new Socket(inc.host.getText(), inc.ServerCommsKeepAliveSocketPort, inc.socketTimeOut);"

My Question is:
What is the best approach to testing if a Server / Socket is reachable w/o blocking forever in the case where the Server is down?

If the socket is still open after the timeout that sounds like a bug in the cn1lib

Post it in the CN1Sockets issue tracker.  This is a known issue, I haven't had time to address.  Here is the existing issue for it.

I have posted a fix for this.  Should be available in Codename One settings shortly.  Or download direct here
