Subject: Smalltalk and WinSock
Does anyone know a location, or, have any source code for the implementation
of the WinSock API from within Smalltalk?
I am using VisualWorks for Windows and Trumpet Winsock 1.0 Rev B #6.
Specifically, the problem I am having is that I am unable to access the
structure referenced by the pointer returned from the gethostbyname function.
I understand that I am not supposed to manipulate the data in the structure,
however, just attempting to view the contents of the structure generates a
General Protection violation.
While, information specifically targeted at the Smalltalk environment would
be preferable, explanations using C as basis are quite helpful.
Thanks for your help.

This seems to be a rather consistent state of affairs. People, including
myself, looking for assistance setting up a basic Windows/SLIP/PPP/Winsock
sytem. Are there any "experts" out there in Winsock cyberspace willing to
mentor a few 'beginners?' It would seem efficacious to me if someone were
to put together a text file detailing what one needs to know and do in
order to get Winsock client programs operating on the Windows and/or
Windows for workgroups platform. One exmple is that the Winsock
documentation say that the packet driver must be loaded to 0x60 (96h) but
how do you tell Windows to load a driver to a specific hex address? We who
have been struggling to get our Internet surf boards out past the first
line of breakers would certainly appreciate some mentoring from some of you
old hands.

The "standard" windows socket document (winsock.doc or winsock.ps) that can be
got at most popular windows archive sites. (ftp.microsoft.com
advsys\winsock\spec11). Though, this only contains the API description, some
info about winsock specific considerations and a small amount of example code.
There is a book by Ralph Davis,"Windows Network Programming" that contains
a chapter in windows sockets.
But... since windows sockets is based off of Berkeley sockets, there are
many good UNIX books that will help you understand socket programming. I
would recommend "UNIX Network Programming" by W. Richard Stevens.
Also, back issues of the Microsoft Systems Journal contain articles on
window sockets as well:
