tcp/ip communication via console
basically, i just wanna get started on socket programming and i wanna make a server program that listens on a port and recives messages send from a client program jusrt made to send messages. i dont think this should be too hard
now, i need to know where to start. correct me if im wrong, but winsock.h and winsock2.h are both used for windows api, right?
if thats true, then i dont know if i can use them in a console based program.
where would be a good start to read about this and what include files would i need?
im using dev c++
BTW, if anyone things borland or microsoft c++ woudl be better for this, lemme know
