Quite strange that struct sockaddr_storage doesn't have any member "ss_family", instead address family is represented by "__ss_family".

Indeed. There's no "#define ss_family __ss_family" anywhere?

I think AIX support will have to wait until after I release 0.3.8, as it looks like some non-trivial changes may be required.

Cheers, Chris

I am afraid not, result of search: find /usr/include -exec grep "ss_family" -type 2>/dev/null {} \; /usr/include/sys/socket.h: ushort_t __ss_family; /* address family */ /usr/include/sys/socket.h: sa_family_t __ss_family; /* address family */ I tried to build the code on AIX after making some changes(dirty hack) to /boost/asio/detail/socket_types.h # if defined(__sun) # include <sys/filio.h> # endif //--------------------------------- # if defined(_AIX) # define ss_family __ss_family # endif and line #276 of /boost/asio/error.hpp #elif defined(__MACH__) && defined(__APPLE__) || defined(_AIX) But still errors related to gethostbyaddr_r() and gethostbyname_r() crop up. Please let know if I can continue to work on this and if possible get a resolution.
