Socket Programming in C++

Question

Can anybody provide me some sample example on Client and server connection using sockets in C++. I have gone through some tutorials now i want to implement it. How to start

Answer 1

You can find a working client-server program here: Beej's Guide to Network Programming

Answer 2

A good C++ networking library is ACE. The only problem is that there aren't any good tutorials online that I have found. This book is pretty good though.

Answer 3

There is no socket API in the C++ Standard. The POSIX C API is fairly portable (the GNU libC documentation provides examples of UDP and TCP clients and servers that I usually turn to when I'm scratching together another server), or you could use the Boost.ASIO library for a more C++ experience....
