Hi.. I made a program which binds a socket to a broadcast address e.g: "255.255.255.255:5600" and it works in Vista developed with VS 2005.
However the same program would not work in Windows 7. Since I have VS 2010 on my Win7 PC, I converted my project, debugged it and found that the error was: "The requested address is not valid in its context (error code 10049)".
Why can't I bind a socket to a broadcast address in Windows 7?
