Getting Started With Winsock!
Yeah!!! WinSock!!! Yeah!!! Ok. I want to dive more deeply into this and really aren't sure where to begin. Let me tell you what I want to do, and see if you can give me a few hints. I want to make a *simple* no wait, *very simple* chat program. I really don't know what all it will take but here what I think so far.
1) Create a socket
2) Bind the socket
3) open the socket
4) Send or receive data
5) ??
I don't want to fool around with servers or anything else, just have it so that you just punch in an IP address and a message and it'll send it to the other chat program at the specified IP address? If anyone can give me just a rough outline of what I need to do that would be great. Just an order to do what in would be great. The less detail the better actually cause I don't learn to much when someone write it all out for me :-) Thanks for the help.
