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_endpointboost::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...

IMHO, asio is pretty well documented. The problem is that you're
trying to find 1-to-1 relationship between asio model and the native C
sockets. For this you have to explore asio internals, not only the
documentation.
