UNIX和Windows上的C ++套接字udp和tcp

Question

can you recommend me a good c++ library(or implementation) for udp socket (multicast) and tcp working on unix / windows system? tnx

Answer 1

Boost.Asio

Description

Portable networking and other low-level I/O, including sockets, timers, hostname resolution, socket iostreams, serial ports, file descriptors and Windows HANDLEs.

Answer 2

There is also the Adaptive Communication Environment . This SO question asks about the pros and cons of three different C++ networking libraries.

If you already depend on Boost, you might as well stick with boost::asio. ACE is quite a large library.
