Generic C++ Sockets Library

The Berkeley sockets API was developed as part of 'Berkeley Unix' at the University of California, Berkeley. This 'C' API has been adopted almost universally on a wide variety of platforms including Linux, Windows, Macintosh, and emmbeded operating systems. It has also been used as the inspiation for API's for an number of other programming languages such as Java, Python, and Perl.

This library uses the well know and understood concepts from the 'C' sockets API along with the design patterns identified in Doug Schmidt's Adaptive Communications Environment. ( ACE ) This has been designed and implemented using the modern C++ techniques developed by Alex Stepanov for the C++ Standard libray ( STL ) and further developed for the Boost Libraries.
