I'm looking for a C++ library for wireless networking that will work
on such platforms as Windows, Linux, Solaris, Mac OS. Has anyone here got
experience with this? Can you recommend a library please?
(BTW I've been told to stay away from the Microsoft library because it's
very restrictive on what you can do as regards assigning MAC addresses
and enabling monitor mode; is this true?)

Well, the FAQ is a bit too restrictive, "Only post to comp.lang.c++ if
your question is about the C++ language itself." It should be clear
to anyone that having the unmoderated group /more/ restrictive than
the moderated one, is less than meaningful.
That's a very good point. Such questions probably *should* be on-topic
here. I'd be all for putting it up to a vote, and I'd vote for a more
liberal policy. But, unless and until that policy change takes effect,
I still think posters should respect it as currently written.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
