typedef struct sockaddr {
ADDRESS_FAMILY sa_family;
CHAR sa_data[14];
} SOCKADDR, *PSOCKADDR;
How to implement the second parameter sa_data[14]. I want to establish connection to destination so i need to set the remote address here.
It is an address-family-specific stuff.
Look at “sockaddr_in” structure.

Can you give me an example code. i am Getting this error code when combining with it.
“no suitable conversion function from “sockaddr_in” to “PSOCKADDR” exists”

Google is a lot faster than this mailing list. This structure dates
back to the very beginning of sockets programming, in 1983.

Literally ANY example of socket programming on the web would show you
how these structures are handled, including the page I pointed to in my
previous message (which, I do realize, arrived after you sent this).
Typically, you create your local structure as a “struct sockaddr_in”,
then pass the address of that structure to the socket APIs after casting
it to (PSOCKADDR).
