[Boost-users] info about connect method of boost::asio::ip::tcp::iostream

Hi All Right now I started using boost::asio::ip::tcp::iostream class. If I use the constructor of this class with 2 strings stating IP and PORT everything is fine and I can connect to my server. boost::asio::ip::tcp::iostream sockStream("1.2.3.4","5000"); Instead if I use the connect method using the port as int, connection doesn't happen. boost::asio::ip::tcp::iostream sockStream; sockStream.connect ("1.2.3.4", 5000 ); if( sockStream.fail() ){ std::cout << "I am not connected" << std::endl; } What am I doing wrong? It is something allowed to do or should I use other classes like resolver::query + resolver::iterator? Thanks CS
