Hi
I'm having problems confirming my installation of the 'common c++' environment. I'm using visual C++ 6.0 (no patches) and I am interested in the win32 variant.
The problem I'm having is with the apesock demo. The lines -
tcp >> i;
and
tcp << "user entered " << i << endl;
both generate a bad_cast exception - both exceptions are related to the integer i. My guess is that I'm missing a library patch, but I can't find any clues as to what that might be - the 'Dinkum' upgrade perhaps.
Any suggestion would be appreciated.

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
I'm not sure if this is being caused by the lack of the Dinkum fixes or not. However, if you don't have the fixes then you will likely run into other problems eventually. Go get them at:
As for the demos... once you get past the compile-time error you will run into run-time errors. I'm trying to find someone here who can actually tell us just what does and does not work in this library (particularly win32).
