Portable network layer



Hi,

I'm developing a gtk (gtkmm) app for both Windows and Linux.
So far so good, everything works, on both platforms

However, I'd like to add network functionality to the program: open a tcp
connection to a server, and grab data from it.
The protocol is a simple applicative one (not http), and I'm planning to run
this in a separate thread, updating the data in the main window.

What API are available to do this? anything already in gtk dependencies? (I
suppose one for the network and another for the threading(most probably
glib) )
I'd like to keep the dependencies to a strict minimum (preferably
bundle-able vs installable), free, and I only need basic functionality

Thanks,
Jonathan
