Tutorials on 'Advanced' Winsock 2 Network Programming

 

 

 

 

These tutorials are code re-compilation from the 'outdated' Network Programming for Microsoft Windows book using the Winsock 2 library. Before you use these tutorials, please read the disclaimer. These tutorials  concentrate more on the coding side the working program examples, so all the codes have been updated, re-compiled and tested using Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition (free). For the information part, you should refer to MSDN doc because it is updated regularly making the information provided here may be outdated...

 

Visual C++ Express Edition 2008 with Visual Studio service pack 1

 

 

 

 with PSDK installed and the version is depicted in the following screenshot.

 

The Windows SDKs v6.0A

 

Machine used is Windows XP Pro SP2 (version 5.1, build 2600.xpsp_sp2_gdr.090206-1233: Service Pack 2). VC++ project settings are defaults and only the Additional Dependencies (specific library) and Compile As C Code (/TC) are changed or added. These things are mentioned for each project creation in the tutorials. Happy coding!
