Hi all!

I am wanting to get into learning and doing some Linux socket programming in FPC. However, the tutorials I have found all do not seem to work with the latest iteration of FPC 2.6 (the ones I've found will only work with 2.0.0 only).

If anyone knows of where I could find some updated tutorials and code snippets to learn from, I would greatly appreciate it if someone could point me there way.

Since then FPC matured, and there are several socket suites to chose from, avoiding repetitive and error-prone reimplementation of the RFCs.

FPC even packages an own one as lnet. Since you are mostly interested in Linux, Synapse might also be worth looking at.

Note that in general FPC 2.0.0 tutorials should work. However probably the tutorials are 1.0.x minorly updated to 2.0. 1.0.x legacy has indeed been cleared out since.
