Cross-Platform C++ Network Library

[kibestar]

Hello there, I would really like for somewone to point me out a good (or excellent) C++ cross-platform network library, with a tutorial on how to use it (even if it is it's own documentation). Thank you!

boost http://www.boost.org
QT (for GUI) http://www.qt.nokia.com, previously it was trolltech now taken by nokia.
wxWidgets(GUI) http://www.wxwidgets.org
ACE (Adaptive communication environment) http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE.html

there are many others but i have used these. I recommend boost or ACE.

Is Boost actually a NETWORK library? Because I'm not understanding it well (on the context of networking).

Boost does everything.
