Thread: Sockets

Ive read loads of tutorials on programming sockets
in windows but every example ive tried
doesn't compile properly


unresolved external symbol _WSAStartup@8

Code:

#include <winsock.h> 


void int()
{


WSADATA info;
if (WSAStartup(MAKEWORD(1,1), &info) != 0)
  MessageBox(NULL, "Cannot initialize WinSock!", "WSAStartup", MB_OK);


}

My understanding is the code above should
create a valid winsock connection, but it doesn't


Im using Visual C++ 6.0 is this the best way to
use sockets or is there another way
