Hello, Boost is quite useful for this. But as far as I know, there are some complications about Boost::string and Glib::ustring and some other library related parts.
About 3 years ago I wrote a simple client-server based messenger in with Gtkmm and an own implemented protcol. For this I just used the basic C network stack wich I used with the Gtkmm I/O functions on the client side and a simple console interface with C++ STL on server side. The server used the simple multiplex function "select" for example. The following link covers some basics about the C network functions wich I used in My app. http://beej.us/guide/bgnet/output/html/multipage/index.html As I started in the basics of network programming, the link above helped Me alot. But I'm pretty sure there are some powerful libraries out there like Boost. But I like it small and simple. As it is used to say: "Back to the roots." :-)) Any other opinion about My thoughts are naturaly welcome.
