tcp communications

[Dave]

I want to send binary data between two computers in a p2p style
arrangement and I've been trying to find out if there is a
standard/established way to do this using third party libraries written
in c++.

I've looked at BEEP http://www.beepcore.org but I am uncertain as to how
successful it is. Are there other methods/libraries out there? Thank you.

You'd do better to ask on a forum dedicated to networking. See also
this FAQ which links to various class libraries:

I'm hoping to write my own C++ program so I thought this forum would be
the correct place. BEEP is written in C and C++ but I want to know what
alternatives there are for communications libraries before jumping in.

Please don't top-post here (cf.
<http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/how-to-post.html#faq-5.4>). I
fixed it for you here.

Second, as FAQ 5.9 indicates, this group is for discussing the standard
C++ language and libraries proper, not third-party libraries or
specific applications. For the latter, you'll want to try a group
dedicated to the library or application domain in question.

Of course, when implementing your program if you have a question
regarding the language, this would be the right place to ask.

My apologies. Thank you.
