I use Borland C++ compiler (latest version).
I found this tutorial via a post mathgirl made:
http://www.hal-pc.org/~johnnie2/winsock.html
How do I do that? I've searched this forum and google but I can't seem to find the answer...Quote:
Remember that any code presented in this tutorial should be linked with the Winsock library, usually wsock32.lib or something similarly named
Thx
EDIT: if you know any tutorials on networking in c++ (windows) please post them, they are hard to find.
You need to modify your project linker settings to include wsock32.lib in order to link with the Winsock2 library.
header file = winsock.h, winsock2.h
libraries = wsock32.lib, w2_32.lib
You can also list the SocketsPP.lib before the wsock32.lib in your linker specification
? How do I do that? Sorry to ask such annoying questions, started learning c++ only 3 days ago or something.
This is the configuration file of my linker at the moment:
-L"c:\Borland\Bcc55\lib"
Should I add something to that for the library files?
-L = the switch to specify library search paths
And for the header files, can't I just:
#include <winsock.h>
#include <winsock2.h>
??
(b) Compiling and Linking Application Programs:
Now you can use the LEDA libraries as follows to compile and link your application programs.
We use <LEDA> to indicate the root directory of your LEDA installation, e.g., c: \LEDA-4.4.1 \.
Programs using basic data types:
bcc32 -P -I<LEDA>\incl -L<LEDA> prog.c libl.lib
Programs using graph data types:
bcc32 -P -I<LEDA>\incl -L<LEDA> prog.c libg.lib libl.lib
Programs using geometric data types:
bcc32 -P -I<LEDA>\incl -L<LEDA prog.c libp.lib libg.lib libl.lib
Programs using three-dimensional data types:
bcc32 -P -I<LEDA>\incl -L<LEDA> prog.c libd3.lib libp.lib libg.lib\
libl.lib
Programs using graphics data types:
bcc32 -P -I<LEDA>\incl -L<LEDA> prog.c libw.lib libp.lib libg.lib\
libl.lib wsock32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib comdlg32.lib shell32.lib\
advapi32.lib
Programs using GeoWin:
bcc32 -P -I<LEDA>\incl -L<LEDA> prog.c libgeow.lib libd3.lib\
libw.lib libp.lib libg.lib libl.lib wsock32.lib\
user32.lib gdi32.lib comdlg32.lib shell32.lib advapi32.lib

3 resources I use: C++ For Dummies, Visual C++ The Complete Reference (McGrawHill), The C++ Programming Language Third Edition.
Still doesn't work :(
I do this:
C:\>bcc32 +C:\borland\bcc55\bcc32.cfg -L net.cpp C:\borland\bcc55\lib\psdk\wsock32.lib C:\Borland\bcc55\lib\psdk\ws2_32.lib
content of bcc32.cfg
-------------------------
-I"c:\Borland\Bcc55\include"
-L"c:\Borland\Bcc55\lib"
It compiles, but when it starts linking:
Error: Unresolved external '_main' referenced from C:\BORLAND\BCC55\LIB\C0X32.OB

Do you know how to solve this?
Thanks for the help you already gave.
