Sorry, that would be VS 9.0 (2008) On Tuesday, March 18, 2008, at 06:18PM, "Julian Cain" wrote:

No problem here with VC++ 2008 and Boost.Asio 0.3.9. Boris

Julian, you might want to #define _WINSOCKAPI_ /* Prevent inclusion of winsock.h in windows.h */ before including any headers in your file. This way only winsock2.h will be included. Or, alternatively, you can try to include winsock2.h yourself before anything. Have fun Andrey. On Tue, 18 Mar 2008 16:22:48 -0600, Julian Cain wrote:

What do you mean by 'compiling asio'? It is a header-only library. :) The problem you're seeing is because the (old) winsock.h header has been included. Most people that see this do because they've included windows.h*before* the asio headers. You can get around this by defining WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN (something like that) before including windows.h, or just by including windows.h after everything else. Regards, Darren
