C++ Sockets

[crashnburn]

Hi there,

I was wondering if C++ has some kind of default new socket wrapper, that
avoids many lines of code. Maybe there is a good C++ library?

Any ideas? I'm using UNIX, but portability would be great.

Regards

No, it most certainly doesn't.

Try looking for a post (happens here once a month or so) from
Nikki Locke, titled "Available C++ Libraries FAQ". It has
a link to an online list of various libraries, communications
is probably one of the sections there.

Maybe you should ask in a UNIX programming newsgroup?...

Standard C++, the topic of this newsgroup, knows not of sockets.
Therefore your question is decidedly off-topic.

[hint: do a web search "C++ sockets" and you'll find plenty of options]

there are always going to be many lines of code.

here is a link to an SDL_net socket library function
