Hi Boosters,

I´m playing around with the great boost::asio library but have problems using the boost::asio::ip::tcp::iostream.

I try to implement a very simple nntp-client:

<code>

void connect_and_retrieve_list_of_newsgroups() {

std::string line;

// connect to server boost::asio::ip::tcp::iostream s("news.gmane.org", "nntp"); if (!s) return;

// read connection ack std::getline(s, line);

// log std::cout << line;

// check return code here. we assume everything is fine. // ...

// send LIST command to request a list of newsgroups (see rfc 977) // the server will respond with one or more lines s << "LIST\r\n";

Try adding s.flush() here.

Yeah, that worked! Many Thanks! Sascha
