programming socket in c++

[mas]

hello,
I'm a computer science student and I would like to socket programmming in
c++,
where can I find material in Internet that contains information about this
topic?
I have already programmed sockets in c, but I have uncovered that some
ruotines (such as inet_iton()) have been modified, and I do not know which
are the corrisponding routines in c++.
The final idea is to be able to pass a complex object (approximately
125x4x32bit of hightly structured information) from one computer to the
other.
Thanks in advance

Sockets are not part of standard C++, so your question is off-topic here.
However there are newsgroups dedicated to socket programming (if your
target platform is Windows look for Winsock), alternatively you could also
consult a newsgroup dedicated to the OS you are using.

C++ has no concept of sockets, all socket functions are from C libs.
You can wrap them in C++, but that's another story.
