Sorry, I was just looking inside the debugger what the exception object looked like. I thought I can see there what the error string is. When calling the member what() will results into the string I was looking for. Also, I would like to mention that passing a port number as an integer wont result into the expected query object. I think that might be a typical beginner error. Well, at least I stepped into this pitfall. As usual, reading the reference will clear it up, when you actually read it. ;-) Christian On 9/26/06, Christian Henning wrote:

Hi there, I'm having problems to figure out what error code 11001 means. I have an boost::asio::error exception that is thrown inside tcp::resolver::resolve( query ) .

So how can I translate this error code into something descriptive.

Thanks ahead, Christian
