Linker error when compiling boost.asio example
- by Alon
Hi, I'm trying to learn a little bit C++ and Boost.Asio. I'm trying to compile the following code example:
#include <iostream>
#include <boost/array.hpp>
#include <boost/asio.hpp>
using boost::asio::ip::tcp;
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
try
{
if (argc != 2)
{
std::cerr << "Usage: client <host>" << std::endl;
return 1;
}
boost::asio::io_service io_service;
tcp::resolver resolver(io_service);
tcp::resolver::query query(argv[1], "daytime");
tcp::resolver::iterator endpoint_iterator = resolver.resolve(query);
tcp::resolver::iterator end;
tcp::socket socket(io_service);
boost::system::error_code error = boost::asio::error::host_not_found;
while (error && endpoint_iterator != end)
{
socket.close();
socket.connect(*endpoint_iterator++, error);
}
if (error)
throw boost::system::system_error(error);
for (;;)
{
boost::array<char, 128> buf;
boost::system::error_code error;
size_t len = socket.read_some(boost::asio::buffer(buf), error);
if (error == boost::asio::error::eof)
break; // Connection closed cleanly by peer.
else if (error)
throw boost::system::system_error(error); // Some other error.
std::cout.write(buf.data(), len);
}
}
catch (std::exception& e)
{
std::cerr << e.what() << std::endl;
}
return 0;
}
With the following command line:
g++ -I /usr/local/boost_1_42_0 a.cpp
and it throws an unclear error:

How can I fix it?
Thank you.
