Hii,
i am trying to execute a code and im getting error in this part of the
code(in line no 3)
        for(;;)
        char buf[4];
        size_t len = socket.read_some(boost::asio::buffer(buf,4));
if(error == boost::asio::error::eof)
            break;
        else if(error)
            throw boost::system::system_error(error);
std::cout << "[!]";
        std::cout.write(buf.data(), len);
         }
The error is *" quest for member ‘read_some’ in ‘socket’, which is of
non-class type ‘boost::asio::ip::tcp::socket* {aka
boost::asio::basic_stream_socket<boost::asio::ip::tcp>*}"*
That's more for boost-users than boost development mailing list.

As the error messages says, you're calling a member function on a 
pointer. You need to use ->read_some not .read_some.
