Re: [Boost-users] [asio].[hp-ux].[1_33_1] Build related issue

Hello,

That is one of the 'nice' features on HP/UX os. With X/Open compliant
functions (_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED) you are unable to use multicasting
(struct ip_mreq is not! defined).
HP support told my that they would make a change request in order to
provide an patch which enable multicasting with X/Open functions - but
if ansd when thiswill happen no one knows.
Regards,
Oliver
