I have legacy app that does TCP/IP (SOCK_STREAM) with DJGPP/wsock in
DOS. Four years later I have been asked to update it.

However I can no longer find version of DJGPP that builds wsock.

So I learned about libsocket. I am trying to build libsocket, and as
yet do not know if I can use just the .a file or will have to compile
stuff. This is the error I am getting with both wsock and libsocket.

For TCP/IP with DJGPP and DOS, is libsocket the current only solution?

thank you,
