msghdr structure used by asio would require "_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED" or "_XOPEN_SOURCE=500/600" to be defined since it is compliant with X/Open Networking Services Library Functions and also would require to be linked against -libxnet at least on Solaris.

I believe _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED is HP/UX specific.

No particular compiler flags are mentioned in man pages. However, standards man page suggests that "-D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500" or "-D_XOPEN_SOURCE=600" be passed to

compiler.

It would be helpful if the asio library takes care of this in the header file.

Not sure - what does AIX for instance require? Oliver
