Hi...actually I have a client and  a server and both run on the same machine, but they will be on different machine with different ip address, so I'm trying to set the Server's Ip address to the client, but it can't work:
I've read that the

basic_endpoint(const boost::asio::ip::address & addr,unsigned short port_num);
Construct an endpoint using a port number and an IP addressso I do the following:

int port=60000;
char  addr[10]="127.0.0.1";  //or another ip address
tcp::socket socket(io_service);

boost::asio::ip::address a = boost::asio::ip::address::from_string(addr);

now I have an "address", I have a port, so I try to build a basic_endpoint

boost::asio::ip::basic_endpoint<tcp> bend(const boost::asio::ip::address & addr, unsigned short port);

finally I need to make an async:connect to that endpoint


socket. async_connect(bend,boost::bind(connect_handler,boost::asio::placeholders::error,&socket));

but the first parameter of the async_connect is a endpoint and not a basic_endpoint...

How can I say to the client "connect to X.X.X.X Ip address at the port Y"?
thanks...
