9973 :: Compile error “no socket”

• Naterlarsen (orginal) [2023-03-08T06:54:19+01:00] view original

  Created a simple code with sockets but when compiling I get an error that socket not found. Tried to use nimble install but the links for the socket module are dead(404). This is on a windows system. Later I’ll setup Linux which is better for nim but for the present, I need to use windows os. Please help to find or know how to install or implement sockets libraries/ module.

  Thanks

  It would be helpful if you could share some actual code of what you're trying. Sockets are part of the standard library as @foxoman pointed out, so you shouldn't need to use Nimble to install it.
