Well, that's not what I told you to do.

First, remove getaddrinfo, and all references to it.
And all addrinfo variables.
And all code that use them.
And all code that checks the return for errors from getaddrinfo.

Obliterate addrinfo from the program.

Then. you will be left with a ListenSocket = socket(); because
"result" is an addrinfo which you have deleted.
You will re-write that one function as
   ListenSocket = socket( AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP );

Why are you doing iResult?
Is that what I wrote above?

That's because it isn't an error code. It is a socket handle.
Read the actual description of the functions you are using.

This isn't what I said to do

Down here somewhere is the line I told you to replace
