C++ is eminently useful for doing network servers. See
http://siesta.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE.html
for one example of it. I cooked up something much more light-weight
at a previous job but I can't give it away. While I am at this,
I will also recommend
Design Patterns,
Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software
by
Erich Gamma, Richard Helm, Ralph Johnson, John Vlissides
Hard-cover, 416 pages, Addison-Wesley 1995, ISBN 0-201-63361-2.
If you can get past all the O-O buzzwords this is a very useful book
on how to structure large software projects, it has examples of
patterns (or idioms) useful in many different contexts etc.
