  • Winsock question

    From Plt@MB to All on Saturday, December 08, 2018 19:16:27
    Quick question does Winsock only work under Windows or will it also work if compiled under linux? If so, does any modifications need to be done that was included in the Synchronet example?

    Thanks

    The only example that jumps out at me is 'socktest.src'. Is this what you're talking about? This module works on Linux and makes no mention of Winsock or being Windows-only.

    Yes, I was refering to socket. Thanks

    The socket support in Baja/PCMS is cross-platform in Synchronet.
