C PROGRAMS & WINSOCK 2 (NETWORK PROGRAMMING): README FIRST

 

This tutorial introduces the using of C language in Windows Socket (Winsock) programming. It should be in Win32 category, Windows network programming. For C++ Winsock programming you have to find it in Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC) programming reference. The new Application Programming Interface (API) has been introduced in Winsock version 2. As mentioned in the MSDN documentation, the Winsock Service Provider Interface, or Winsock SPI (WSP), is a specialized discipline of Winsock used to create providers; transport providers such as TCP/IP or IPX/SPX (Novell Netware -

 already dead) protocol internet's Domain Naming System (DNS). In Traditional network programming, such as enabling applications to communicate over the network, does not require the use of Winsock SPI interfaces; use standard Winsock (WSA - Winsock API) interfaces instead that looks just like Linux Socket. The Winsock or socket programming is one of the sought after topic in programming because of the TCP/IP protocol suite used in the booming Internet communication. A more complete computer network story, specific to TCP/IP, using GNU C programming is discussed in Linux Socket tutorial. At the end you will notice that the C programming for Winsock 1 (WSA) is quite similar to Linux socket programming. The .NET version for Windows network programming with C++/CLI, C# and VB .NET code and project samples can be found on the left sidebar link. Also available is the Java GUI programming which demonstrates some of the TCP/IP elements. Start playing with Windows socket now...

 

 

 

 

C and Winsock2 Topics

 

The Winsock Story

 

This part provides the fundamental information about Winsock/Winsock2 that includes APIs used, WSA, WSP, handles, protocols and programming considerations. This is the user side Winsock programming. For kernel side, please refer to Winsock Kernel (WSK) and the WSK Reference Guide.

  3. Winsock Networking Story Part 3
The Winsock Working Program Examples

 

Here, we start C coding for Winsock. This part provides working program examples of the Winsock/Winsock2 starting from discussing the functions/APIs used in the programs then followed by the coding for server and client as well and finally testing those codes. The topics and the program examples have been arranged in the step-by-step manner which includes TCP and UDP for client and server.
