Winsock

[Stan the man]

HI. I am starting out on Winsock stuff. I have been lookin gat the articles. For using any Winsock type commands, I need the Platform SDK? Is there an way without the Platform SDK? I was looking at how to down load this, do I only need the CORE SDK? Thanks.

For winsock stuff, you dont need anything other than what you get in VisualStudio.

Like johnny said - use what you get in VS. Easiest and most preferred for beginners is to create a class derived from CAsyncSocket - and override SetParent function. I've tried other methods which are more in-depth, but still find this one the easiest and most straight-forward. Don't forget AfxSocketInit(). I did not write W32.Blaster quit asking.
