Hi,

I've successfully added openCV to my project and i wanted to implement client-server system. The socket function doesn't throw an error but the bind method does

if(bind(sockfd, (struct sockaddr *) &serv_addr, sizeof(serv_addr))<0)

stating "invalid operands to binary expression "__bind<int &amp;,sockaddr="" *,unsigned="" long="">' and 'int'".

I found the bind function is not the same.There seems to be another bind function when i added the openCV library which seems to be overlapping.Can someone please help me with this issue?

Thank you

my 1st guess: this is std::bind

so try either to use ::bind or avoid using namespace std;

yes ::bind worked.I don't understand why bind didn't work in the first place.Anyways thank you :)

if you use plain bind , it's unclear to your compiler if it should use the socket function, or the one from <functional> . explicitly using ::bind resolves it.

also please don't forget to close your github issue ;)
